Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

Take a break, look at the sheep

Tom Cox@dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social · last mo.

I've decided to compile a definitive thread of photos of the best sheep I've photographed during my walks in the countryside, together with supporting biographical information. I will put the vital story associated with each sheep in the alt text, since some of it is a little long to fit in a post.

It appears the boy has forgiven me for stuffing him in a crate, driving him an hour away from home while everything smelled like fire, keeping him in a tiny room that didn't smell like his family overnight, and shoving a pill down his throat for the first time ever.

Bliss Coffee is offering a free drink for donations for people displaced by the Spokane Complex fires.

No word from the president of our country about the 700-1000 homes lost so far, or the emergency funds we've requested, but my insurance company reached out so... 😂

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.gov · 2d ago

Alongside our entire Congressional delegation—Democrats & Republicans—I'm calling on the President to approve our state's request for an expedited emergency declaration. We need every bit of support we can get to fight the devastating fires we're seeing in Eastern & Central WA.

A break from fire stuff. Mabel has zero interest in self preservation 😅

The Spokane Complex Fire has destroyed hundreds of homes and displaced thousands of people. Our communities are jumping in to help. Here are a few resources for where to locate resources and how to pitch. If you think of anything we missed, let us know at team@rangemedia.co.

TL;DR - do any of you know how to do an online raffle? Hello Crawlers, I started this Samantha crochet before the fires started. I'm assembling her tomorrow and I'd like to raffle her off to raise funds for those affected. Does anyone know how to do something like that? Or have a better idea?

Last night, @governorferguson.bsky.social made a formal request for an expedited emergency declaration for the Spokane fires. Our ENTIRE delegation is urging the President to approve that request immediately. All of us are working together to make sure Eastern & Central WA get more help ASAP.

Please stop flying your drones over the fires, fire crews can't fly in water with all the drones out there right now

My friend's cousin lost their home in the Spokane fires. Please donate if you can. gofund.me/f302416bf

U-Haul is offering 30 days free storage for people affected by the Spokane Complex fires

Some returned home, but dozens remained in limbo. Folks who stayed slept in the barn area; others sought solace in the parking lot outside. People caught naps behind their wheels as pets paced nervously in the backseat. Others took turns walking the horses in the stables.

Owner of pets lost after flames: ‘God knows where they are’

Across the city, residents have evacuated their animals from the flames. But people fear for the ones left behind.

In '91 we had Firestorm, a huge natural disaster in the Inland NW. I remember it vividly - red sky, howling wind, power outage, my dad handing me a burlap sack to pack what I could in case we had to flee. '91 destroyed just over 100 homes. Yesterday's fires took out over 600 and it's not over yet.

As the Spokane community continues to face the devastating impacts of local wildfires, you can help your neighbors. We will continue to update this thread with more opportunities to help!

If your cat has been injured due to the fires, Spokane Cat Clinic is offering help.

Decided to go back home for now but keep everything ready just in case. Coco locked herself and the twins in the car. My dad had to pry the door open with a splitting wedge. I'm on two hours of sleep. How are you?

More than 600 (likely homes) burned in and around Spokane County yesterday. The devastation is incomprehensible www.spokesman.com/stories/2026...

In case you thought I was pure city folk, here's the one room shack I lived in as a child, while we built the one room shop we lived in while we built the actual house we ended up in 😅 Bonus: Mabel in the RV

CdA Tribe has offered space to those displaced by the fires

He decided to hide behind the TV. Mabel joined him in solidarity (and chaos).

Dani Vaughn Bea@danivaughnbea.bsky.social · 3d ago

Zadie has settled in. Coco and Mabel have been fine, loving the adventure. Poor Dipper has been screaming since we left the house. He shit on the bed. I had grabbed the pets meds before we left and there's some leftover trazadone of Zadie's, so I gave him a quarter of one. I'm so tired.

Me and the animals decided to go to my folks just in case. Dipper (the anxious one) immediately disappeared and only came out once I stopped looking for him, and Zadie is having an existential crisis seeing her reflection for the first time. But hey, SpongeBob is on the TV and we're safe 💜

This has me worried it'll push the Fairview fire towards us... we're talking about evacuating now just in case.
