On the move again. I like this group. A good mix of sensible and reckless. We melted away from that line and reformed a block away. Obviously there is a dumpster firepic.twitter.com/i9zQNHrgAe

Police, sorry for the typo. It has been a while since I have tasted the spiciness of the gas Pretty sure that's illegal They full on chased us. We ran. They retreated. We follow. Dumpsters wheeled to the front to hold the line

As the LRAD recites his warnings, NWA blares. Everyone is singing along I like to think the fear I hear over the LRAD is a response to our fearlessness

The cops are, for now, completely gone. Some are celebrating with five finger/brick discounts Not sure this looting is confined to corporations, which is, in my opinion, uncool. Also there are security cameras everywhere so it is definitely dumb

A Popeyes dumpster is on fire. If this was a video game there would definitely be a "find all the dumpster fires" sidequest Seriously though, the worker is understandably put out. "What I'd like is for the fire dept to come, but I don't think we have one of those tonight"
