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.

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.
Jared Golden’s office told me he plans on voting for this voter suppression bill. This is truly terrible. #mepolitics
BREAKING: The House will vote on the SAVE Act today. If this bill becomes law, millions of American citizens could be blocked from voting. 1/

John Prine took on #RadicalizingMySheep duties tonight. More than up to the task.

G’night, Jerry.

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 🤷‍♀️🤣🐑🥰

Little guy discovered a new way to terrify his mother and Johnny Cash today. Big day in #RadicalizingMySheep

Back to Maya Angelou for tonight’s #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
April 3, 2025 at 3:26 AM
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 ❤️🐑

#RadicalizingMySheep tonight with the absolutely perfect “I Think That I’ve Been Radicalized” by Matthew Yee…gonna need an official version asap.
April 2, 2025 at 2:46 AM
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)
