Yesterday was the last day with my 💔.

My dog Linus & I drove several hours to bring him to a licensed rescue org.

I woke him early to get him well hydrated before the long drive.

Of course there’s a last video for all of Ramone’s fans…

Strongly considering collecting seeds and planting these around trees as revenge on squirrels for digging up seedlings and stealing fruit. 😈… 🐿️🐿️🐿️😱☠️

Cirsium horridulum, bristle thistle (aka horrid thistle)

#花 @plants

Close-up of the yellow and brown thistle center showing intricate details and textures. The stamens are deep in the center and look like the end of spaghetti noodles squeezed into a bunch.
A wider shot of the thistle. It is actually a very large plant. The leaves look like arugula if it were massively thorny and could be used as a weapon. The rolled up hedgehog of a flower sits on top of this giant vicious plant.

Day 4 🧵 starts here.

Yesterday came to an abrupt end when the dishwasher leaked all over the floor. It’s fixed now, but what a mess.

Linus, Ramone & I are all doing well.

Adjourned. Thank goodness.

Phew.

Dog & call.

Probably won’t cover as extensively unless things get interesting, but ’s / trial is back on today w/ continued selection.

A was quickly dismissed at the start. She was among the 7 already selected, she said she was very worried that despite the fact the court ruled to keep jurors’ name secret, she would still be exposed & targeted.

So that was definitely more important than monitoring .
For sure.

bests any day.


video (look how little compared to pen cap!) attached:

Snug as a… much happier baby squirrel.

@Nonilex@masto.ai avatar

I’m going to TRY not to post too many rescued videos, but the little one has improved so much since getting snug & warm & it’s ridiculously cute.
I’m (knock wood) feeling good about its prospects.

Baby happily comfortably snuggling, bravely decided to sleep up high on cloths. (Don’t worry I checked that the heating pad wasn’t too warm)

SQUIRREL (thinking): I am so incredibly angry, but I'm not supposed to show it. | A small fire sparks above the squirrel's head. SQUIRREL (thinking): SO I will just site here quietly. | The squirrel is now fully on fire. SQUIRREL (thinking): And no one... | The fire has spread to the entire tree the squirrel is sitting on, and the rabbit who sat next to them plummets to the ground. SQUIRREL (thinking): ...will ever know.
