#west coast fires

[silencedrowns]

I shared this weeks on Reddit but since that site is a wreck, I’m sharing over here too. I identified which (100% free!) cape pattern the illustrations of Vin and Kelsier on the stickers in the Mistborn swag box heavily reference! You’d obviously have to do a bunch of tweaks, but I would recognize this torso wrap and dart situation anywhere, so it’s a solid starting point!

It has occurred to me that many people on the east coast are experiencing something of this caliber for the first time. I’ve been dealing with this almost every summer for nearly as long as I can remember. Ergo, helpful information post.

Moderate air quality means that health-wise, while it’s not great to be outside, if you’re not a sensitive group (elderly, asthma, heart condition, lung condition, very young), you won’t experience any health effects. Unhealthy for sensitive groups is exactly as it sounds, but we’re getting into “nobody do anything strenuous outside” territory. Unhealthy into hazardous is don’t exercise outside, don’t walk outside, don’t go outside unless you absolutely have to

If you have to go outside, wear a mask. Your best bet for smoke in the air is an N-95, which are sold at most hardware stores. Other masks work fine, but the best for smoke is N-95

When it comes to evacuation notices, there are three levels: level 1–get ready. Pack a suitcase or two. Clothes, toiletries, and things that absolutely cannot be replaced. It sucks. As someone who has done it, I’ve never felt more powerless than having to decide what was important enough to me that I wasn’t willing to let it burn. Level 2–get set. Pack the stuff up in the car. If you don’t have a car, reach out to neighbors. I don’t care if you’ve never spoken to them a day in your life. In an emergency situation you have to get out. Level 3–go. Leave and, if you’re the religious type, pray. It’s all you can do.

Edit: if the fire is coming towards a residential area, more specifically your residential area, and you have the means, take a hose and spray your house down. Just douse the motherfucker. It sounds unusual but wet houses are less likely to catch. Your water bill might jump, but at least you’ve got a house

Things are fucking scary right now. Breathe and plan. Do what you can. Regardless of what happens, you can make it through.

went out to see the meteor shower tonight :3 there were hundreds of people in the columbia river gorge so it felt like trying to get into the county fair but me n rafi laid in the grass for 4 hours watching shooting stars n chatting with the very drunk very high very delightful group of strangers sitting near us, who had their seven-month-old baby with them. i am now sleepy but it was good.

#on the way home we had to call 911 bc of the highway being on fire lmfao. but it's alright they're on it #just typical august on the west coast. we are safe and at home! #oregon #travels

“Why do people choose to live in an area where the weather can kill them?”

“Just move then”

“It’s your fault for being there”

“Why aren’t you driving away?”

“YoU cHooSe to LiVe ThErrE”

The comments being made on a video about a recent, mostly unexpected natural disaster

1) how callus and rude

2) please tell me then where everyone is supposed to live since you know everything. Name one place in the entire world where there is no bad weather or natural disasters ever. Name one place free from tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, wildfires, mudslides, sandstorms, snowstorms, floods, earthquakes, heatwaves, cold waves, blizzards etc etc Every area has problems, please tell me where people should go

4) “jUsT MoVe DuH” not everyone has the luxury to just pick up their entire lives and move on a whim- due to things like money, jobs, cost of living in other areas, children, military families who have to be in a certain place, housing market, how expensive moving is etc etc It’s not so simple thanks

3) don’t be fucking stupid, at least pretend you have an ounce of common sense

#like how can you see a video of a natural disaster in action and see the after effect and literally say it’s your fault for being there??? #that’s what you are going to say to people #even though it’s been explained multiple times that kind of weather is rare here and no one had much notice until it was already happening #the west coast is on fire #the mid west has tornadoes and earthquakes #the north has blizzards #the south has heatwaves and tornadoes #the east coast has hurricanes #if you’re so smart where should ppl go

Every Irish county has a small village somewhere that's called something like Muckanaghederdauhaulia. And every American state has a quiet little town called... Hot Dog Water
