What We're Talking About

The news we couldn't ignore if we tried

Perry Ave SE Closed On Weekends Through Labor Day Weekend

Get The Coast— Fort Walton Beach officials have announced that northbound Perry Avenue SE will be closed on weekends through Labor Day weekend as part of a seasonal traffic management plan aimed at reducing congestion in residential neighborhoods near Brooks Bridge. During the closure periods, drivers will not be able to use Perry Avenue SE to access eastbound U.S. Highway 98, a route that has often been used as a shortcut around heavy traffic. The city says the measure is intended to discourage cut-through traffic on neighborhood streets and improve safety and traffic flow for residents. Motorists are encouraged to use the U.S. Highway 98 and Eglin Parkway (SR 85) intersection as an alternate route, and message boards will be posted to alert drivers of the restrictions.

Boil Order Lifted

Get The Coast— A precautionary boil water notice affecting portions of unincorporated Fort Walton Beach and Mary Esther has been lifted after follow-up testing confirmed the water is safe for normal use. The notice was issued after a raw water sample from a county well detected E. coli, prompting officials to take the well offline and conduct extensive testing throughout the treatment and distribution system. Subsequent tests found no contamination in the treated water supply, leading Okaloosa County Water & Sewer to remove the advisory. Officials emphasized that the issue was isolated to an untreated source sample and may have resulted from a sampling error or recent maintenance work, with no illnesses reported during the precautionary notice.

Why Would Anyone Want These For Exotic Pets?

USA Today— An Australian woman recently faced an unexpected infestation when more than 100 exotic Madagascar hissing cockroaches were discovered living inside her home after reportedly escaping from a nearby breeding operation and multiplying over time. Authorities said the find became the largest seizure of illegal exotic invertebrates in Australia's history, with the insects valued at approximately 200,000 Australian dollars (about $140,000 U.S.). While Madagascar hissing cockroaches are often kept as pets and are generally harmless, their large size and distinctive hissing sound made the unwelcome houseguests unsettling for the homeowner. Pest specialists were eventually brought in to remove the insects and restore the property to a cockroach-free condition.

Mice Might Actually Be The Trick To Solving Lyme Disease

FoxNews— Researchers on Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard are exploring an unconventional strategy to reduce Lyme disease by genetically modifying mice, which are among the primary carriers of the bacteria that causes the illness. The idea is that if the mice can no longer harbor the bacteria, ticks feeding on them would be less likely to become infected and pass the disease to humans. Although the approach remains in the research phase and has sparked debate about releasing genetically modified animals into the wild, supporters believe it could significantly reduce Lyme disease in areas where it is a persistent public health concern.

Chicago Bears May Actually Leave Chicago

USA Today— The future home of the Chicago Bears remains uncertain as the franchise weighs the possibility of relocating to Indiana while Illinois continues efforts to keep the team in-state. Although no final decision has been made, recent setbacks—including Illinois lawmakers failing to approve incentives designed to retain the Bears—have increased speculation about a move. If the team ultimately relocates, it would mark a historic shift, as the Bears have played their home games in Illinois for more than 100 years. Team officials say a new stadium could spur economic development, create jobs, and attract investment, while Indiana has reportedly proposed incentives worth up to $1 billion to support the project.

Stop Sending Money To Scammers!

The Smoking Gun— A Florida woman, 76, was arrested after allegedly attacking a family member who took away her phone to stop her from sending money to an online scammer posing as actor Liam Neeson. According to reports, the woman had already transferred an undisclosed amount of money to the individual and refused to stop communicating with them. The situation escalated when she allegedly struck the family member in the head and arm after the phone was confiscated. Law enforcement responded to the home and arrested the woman, though it remains unclear whether authorities are investigating the person behind the alleged scam.

Holiday #1 of 4

Name Your Poison Day

<p data-id="f67b4548-c517-41e8-b765-e866722d2eca" id="f67b4548-c517-41e8-b765-e866722d2eca">Name Your Poison Day is that precious little calendar excuse where we pretend “self-care” comes in a glass, a mug, or something that smells like regret and antiseptic. The whole idea is simple: pick your vice, call it a tradition, and act like you’re doing anthropology instead of dodging your inbox and your feelings. It’s not about getting wrecked—officially—it’s about honesty, because nothing reveals character like what you reach for when the day’s been chewing on you. So name it, own it, and pace yourself… because tomorrow’s still coming, and it doesn’t care what you were celebrating.</p>
