Hi! I'm Kaeli, a 15-year-old from Texas with a penchant for obsessively editing other people's spelling and grammar instead of having a social life. I've been lurking on Wikipedia for about a month now and editing as Anonymous, so I decided it was about time for me to create an account. I really like writing, music, and drawing. I have synesthesia (specifically, chromesthenia) meaning that hearing music or sounds causes me to see correlating colors and patterns. I enjoy urban exploration, although there's no good locations near me so I usually end up on urbex forums, instead. I live near NASA and have grown up in an area rich with a healthy, astronomy-centered science program, and I have lots of experience and interest in the field. I have fairly high confidence in my spelling ability and knowledge of various types of music, so that's mostly what I'll be editing on here.
The Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed on March 26, 2024, at 1:28 a.m. Eastern Time, in the Baltimore metropolitan area in the U.S. state of Maryland. The main spans and the three nearest northeast approach spans of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, spanning the Patapsco River, collapsed after MV Dali, a container ship, struck one of the bridge's piers. Six members of a maintenance crew working on the roadway were killed, and two more were rescued from the river. The collapse blocked most shipping to and from the Port of Baltimore for 11 weeks. Wes Moore, the governor of Maryland, called the event a "global crisis" that affected more than 8,000 jobs. The economic impact of the closure of the waterway was estimated at $15 million per day. This photograph, taken on the afternoon of March 26 by a member of the United States Army Corps of Engineers, shows the aftermath of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse, with Dali'sbow damaged by and lying under a section of the bridge's collapsed truss.Photograph credit: David Adams
My Tumblr is grungefrnk, so please feel free to follow me on there! Also, I'm currently questioning my gender and such, so for now, I would like to try it/its pronouns (example: This is its page. It likes to play music.) This is mostly because I don't feel very comfortable being labeled a boy or a girl, and I have no interest in using neopronouns (xe, hir, nouns as pronouns, etc) or they/them, which I feel has a primary function as a plural pronoun. If you absolutely cannot bear to use it/its, standard female pronouns would work too, I guess. Please feel free to leave me something on my talk page! Thanks!
