This man probably owes his entire career to Da Baby | Lil Baby came first... Just FYI 
DaBaby came after him in terms of notoriety.

The kid was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis apparently. Without immediate treatment, it can definitely be deadly. Lots more to the story I'm sure.

If your phone is on DND, the alert just pops up a message on screen, no vibration no ringtone.

My iPhone is set to automatically go on DND at 11pm and I still got the blaring klaxon ringtone at 11:20p,. Luckily I was just getting into bed but I'd have been royally pissed if I was fast asleep.

I go to bed at 8:30, up sometime between 2am and 5am most mornings due to my asshole dog and not beingable to fall back asleep. I was in deep sleep. Anoying for sure but I try and remember what if it was my kid and it's a real emergency?

I lost my daughter (she was three, at the time) in a crowd at Willowbrook mall in the middle of Christmas shopping rush. There's no words that can describe the emotions and thoughts that you experience/go through.
Having a child go missing from your house. I just can't imagine.............
That sound is annoying af, though.
I hate it when they test the system out. No emergency. Just, "Oh yeah, we need to know it works." Even with plenty of warning, lol. Whoever came up with that sound did their homework. Sleeping with the phone next to your ear........... nuff said.

I dunno maybe have two systems:
A "The end is nigh" blaringly-loud klaxon alarm for when the Big One hits or when Nuclear Holocaust is upon us.
And a less jarring but still loud "beep beep" for Amber Alerts, severe weather phenomenon that doesn't shut off for like a minute or so.

^this is a very good idea.
I was still awake and I heard the alarm going off from my living room while I watching TV (I leave my phone in my computer room/office when I'm at hom).
I was contemplating not even bothering to look at it, thinking "It's probably just another amber alert nowhere near me".
Sure enough...
Enough alarms like this and people will tune it out, they better be careful.

What was bad tho is I forgot I had the TV on (it went blank from inactivity) and the TV was blaring the alert too! and that was annoying af, had to switch to a different input or turn it off

Sits on his high horse about addiction recovery for an hour?
He has a show on YouTube which is mildly entertaining due to the guests he gets but he’s pretty preachy these days

I think this show will be similar with him showing us alot of stunts and shit you won't be able to see anywhere else, unless he puts it on Netflix

Buffet. My gawd, the Buffet at Grand Villa is not great, but I miss it. Especially when I would get vouchers for free dinners. I'm going to have to see if the Cascades is on the list of rewards locations on the My Vegas app. I have 9 million chips accumulated (yeah, I have too much time on my hands, lol).

My daughter just left Halifax a couple of days ago. Just missed it. She's hoping the friends she visited are safe. One of the worst storms to hit Atlantic Canada.
