I’m probably going to keep a little section of the stuff that’s too far gone to get ready for the mill and hand process for myself later like the little wool 🐉 that I am…

Catching up on @tangledstarlight.bsky.social’s YouTube channel today and skirting the skirtings to prep for sending to the mill for roving. This Corrie lamb fleece from Flo (rence Ewe) is EXACTLY what I want to spin and it’s all I can do not to drop everything and just go play with some 😮‍💨🐑🧶

My favorite rendition of “Do not go gentle into that good night” is Michael Sheen’s and tonight it’s doing the work of #RadicalizingMySheep

Let’s imagine I was just saying this about this guy ripping his coat and spending all afternoon playing in mud puddles 😬 Or the SAVE Act. Or both. #RadicalizingMySheep

I’ve supported him in the past with money and time and defended him when he’s has to make tough calls in a more conservative district. I’m done.

Jared Golden is spineless trash, pass it on. I called all of the offices. I swear to god, with Dems like these why not risk having a MAGA rep to run someone more reasonable as the dem candidate? Worst case scenario, we lose the seat and I know I need to monitor my rights throughout the workday.

Broke it to the littles that their shepherdess is, in fact, a millennial who did, in fact, go to Warped Tour. So when Choice by Allapartus came across my feed, it made me nostalgic despite never having heard it before. All’s fair in love and #RadicalizingMySheep 🤷‍♀️🤣🐑🥰

We’re frankly still working through Sen Booker material and grateful to be doing so. Over 25 hours of material to continue #RadicalizingMySheep Here’s a quick know your sheep/lamb game for anyone interested: right to left in this video, guess the % Corriedale (with the remainder being Merino).

Told little miss thing here about how proud we are of Sen. Cory Booker (and how wonderful it is to take something from Thurmond at this time and in this way) over dinner tonight. Another night of successfully #RadicalizingMySheep

Someone asked for an update on the little guy who needed tubed - happy to say he’s getting better every day! Still kind of a doofus about eating without help finding the right spot but I don’t think even that trouble will last much longer. Bonus we get a very snuggly (but not bottle fed) lamb ❤️🐑

The new song from Welles got the little ladies (one in particular) particularly fired up during today’s #RadicalizingMySheep ❤️🐑💃 (Tentatively naming her Galambdriel…might be an LOTR year for the girlies)

Well, the white boys got right to raising hell the minute they met. But only in the good ways, because I’m on day 67 of #RadicalizingMySheep and this is a radical rams only farm. Enjoy Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger as much as these hellions…if you dare.

Lest anyone think that #RadicalizingMySheep is focused only on lambs now, a quick check in on the yearling ladies. They were VERY intrigued by some surprise/unplanned new arrivals this morning 🤫🤷‍♀️

Thanks, just broke my heart. So glad the ewe had a twin because she’s such a good mom, it would have broken both our hearts for her to not have a lamb.

Thanks, it was such a sad day. Just grateful she had twins because she is such a good mom and she LOVES her lamb.

This ADORABLE guy has had a tough time getting going (MARKED improvement over the past 14 hours). He’s the 1st I’ve had to tube feed this year and it’s my 1st year having the “Trusti Tuber” from Premier 1. Possibly the best $25 I’ve spent on sheep supplies. Shepherd friends on the fence, get it.

Starting these two EARLY. Figured audio from protests earlier this week would be a good step towards continued #RadicalizingMySheep

Swear I posted this last night but it seems to be gone/not have posted. Rest assured, still #RadicalizingMySheep as the little girls make friends through their lambing jugs ❤️🐑
