Our only water “from the PNW” is the Klamath River. Beginning in the high desert of southern OR, it flows west through the Cascades and Klamath Mountains before emptying into the ocean.

The etymology is amusing: “The cobbler should not judge beyond his shoe.”
Nearly 2,000 years ago, artists were already mad at critics who didn’t appreciate their works. And @radiofreetom.bsky.social was already lamenting the death of expertise. 😜

My first reaction was “Bad on them, this must violate the TOS— wait, no it doesn’t!”
Unlike pretty much every major social site (see Instagram example), the grant-of-license in Twitter’s TOS *doesn’t* terminate when you delete your content. Easy to miss when they don’t use words like “irrevocable”.
