Local news outlets in the region flooded by Helene are producing indispensable service journalism. Right now the top stories on the Asheville Citizen-Times home page include "where to get gas, groceries, wifi, water" and "how to stay safe during boil water advisory"

To make matters worse, he discovered that his car insurance — through Geico — wouldn't cover flood damage. Simmons will have to pay back the bank that holds the lien on the wrecked car.
He owes $11,500 and makes $19/hr working with homeless youth.

For weeks, people in Springfield were captivated by the search for Tiki, a 26-year-old emu that escaped from a sanctuary. There were sightings and other developments.
Good news: Tiki is now home. @Rachel__Hellman reports sevendaysvt.com/vermont/the-…
Rachel Hellman retweeted
Summer is, after all, the season of escape: the landscape in which to contemplate, alone, our failures and our possibilities; the safety valve, the frontier that none of us wants—or can afford—to see closed.
I spent the day witnessing "community," the verb.
@a1mondbutter, @KevinMcCallum7d and I, report.

Also want to shout out @vtdigger and @vermontpublic. Reporters there have been everywhere and keeping Vermonters well informed with potentially life-saving information. Great work by local media during this catastrophe

It feels surreal to have my first Seven Days cover out in the world.
I was so glad to work on this project, which brought me all over the state to find Vermonter’s “third places” (and do my sociology professors proud).
