I am fire 🔥
I'm officially qualified for the 2025 wildfire season which will make it 8 years in fire for me. You could give me a resource order today, I don't care if its 1000 miles away, I'm ready and I'll show up and knock that shit down.

Any time I smoke a cigarette all I can think about is how depressed Ben Affleck is, help

It's going to be an extra spicy day in Texas today.

If this is true it is great news for our public lands and a lot of hard working people. Not holding my breath in this age, but I hope it's true. And I wouldn't blame anyone who got fired for not coming back.

USDA hires back all fired workers from past month
The department's decision was forced by the MSPB, an independent federal court that focuses on employee complaints. Here's what we know.

So you're telling me 3 billion dollars just exploded so we can try to send someone to fuckin MARS when supposedly we don't want to pay people for work they already did? What is on Mars? It's an uninhabitable icy rock with a toxic low pressure atmosphere! Am I missing something?

I don't know if there is any point to sharing my opinions anymore, it won't change anything after all, but I am distressed that my federal colleagues are being treated the way they are. There is no honor left in this country, and civil service seems less appealing now than ever.

I think a lot of what's going on right now boils down to, people have collectively lost touch with reality. But reality will come back soon enough. It always does

These federal cuts (some of which are undoubtedly illegal) are really affecting the forestry sector in Oregon. People are losing their jobs. Can't wait to see what happens when the state catches on fire again. I bet it will be "the firefighters fault"

Simulation of hydraulic erosion I created using blender, dynamic terrain shader, water table based vegetation propagation, basic coastal erosion, lee of mountains receive less rain to simulate microclimates

I did a thing where I made it rain more on one side of the island than the other, just like Hawaii

Hey yall I've been laying low on the internet in general but I'm still doing terrain generation projects, this is from my blender terrain generator, it scatters vegetation using a water table generated by hydraulic erosion, with adjustable sea and snow levels.

Tonight someone asked me what I think about the LA fires. I said they suck real bad. What more can you say if someone asks such a general question?

What if Dunning was a genius and Kruger was an idiot

So this is a true story, I have this buddy, a fit guy. He recently got chased by a guy with a knife. He ran up a hill, and the guy chased him. Then he ran back down the hill, and the guy chased him still. Then he ran back up the hill and the guy got too tired to chase him anymore so he got away.

Defensible space is hard work because it requires a lot of different skills. You do a bit of tree work, a bit of land clearing, a bit of gutter/roof cleaning, and the overall plan has to be rooted in good tenets of wildland urban interface tactics. But I still think its good valuable work

Mahalo Hawai'i, I am filled with gratitude for the people here who graciously let us visit their island, but it's time to go. Maybe we can ride this cyclone and get home a little quicker.

Having an amazing post season fire vacation on the black sands of Hawai'i. This island is incredible.

Hi bluesky, my name is Jon, I'm a wildland firefighter from Oregon who also does tree work and defensible space. I also love 3d modeling and games and hope to make that a side job sometime soon. I came here to keep in touch with old twtr mutuals. Not sure how active I'll be but, greetings.
