Yes, though many people got an alert after the earthquake had already hit. Lots of us also got false evacuation alerts during the fires in January (I only got one, but a friend got two, one in the middle of the night). I feel like the city or county or whatever needs to figure this out.

I was driving when I got the emergency alert that only told me to drop and cover, so I panicked a bit, thinking a catastrophic earthquake was about to hit.

I definitely won't ignore you! And out of curiosity, will look at those reviews.

I'm actually very curious about this, as he's been one of my favorite people to listen to lately.

Part of the struggle is incredibly basic—just not allowing someone who is putting themselves out there to feel alone. Protecting each other’s dignity is worth more than whether you’re “being effective” or whether if you “look bad.”
