Yesterday Amazon, today Microsoft. Are Google's cloud services going down tomorrow?

  And if they don't, we'll know who the culprit is.

  Maybe they are and no one realized yet.. :P That said, I don't hear about GCP outages all that often. I do think AWS might be leading in outages, but that's a gut feeling, I didn't look up numbers.

    fairly certain they had a significant multi region outage within the past few years. I'll try to find some details to link. Few customers....few voices to complain as well.

    They had a pretty massive one earlier this year. https://status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ow5i3PPK96RduMcb1SsW https://status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ow5i3PPK96RduMcb1S... This isn't GCP's fault, but the outage ended up taking down Cloudflare too, so in total impact I think that takes the cake.

  here's hoping its Oracle's cloud instead....

  This is because Azure just copies everything AWS does. Google is a bit more innovative, they will have something else unexpected happen.
