GOAT DOWN

[has-the-gavle-goat-burned-yet]

Gävlebocken has not survived 2025. I believe strong winds is a first in goat destruction, in the past it has been knocked over but neither time was by wind.

Personally, I think the best way to burn the Gävle goat would be to infiltrate the security team, play the long game y'know. Join the team and keep the goat safe for 3 or 4 years, maybe even 10 years, make them trust you, maybe marry a fellow security person. Then, when they least expect it, whoosh up goes the goat, your beloved is the first on the scene, you see the devastation in their eyes as they ask 'why? Was it all a con?' And you will sweep your beloved off their feet and dip them in front of the blazing goat as the head crumbles into itself sending up a column of dramatic flames. And you will declare your love for two things: arson, and them. And then you sloppy kiss and run away from the law together.

Eighteen years later, a young person who looks suspiciously like the both of you joins the security team...

Anyone want to play a Gävlebocken murder game?

Tell me what weapon/tool you're bringing to destroy the goat in a reblog/ask/comment and I'll write a drabble(ish) story about your attempt.

An outcome of 'destroyed' 'survived' or 'changed' will be chosen by random wheel spin.

Attempts from 2025, so far:

A Singe Jackdaw--Survived

Molotov Cocktail Drone Strike--Destroyed

A Rotting Stick--Changed

The Coca-Cola Santa Truck--Changed

A Magnifying Glass--Survived

Attempts from 2024

Maybe we should all just make goats in our own yards and burn them as an offering to the yule-goat-burning-gods?

[polysyndetonaddictsupportgroup]

I cannot put into mortal words how fucking badly I want that swedish goat to burn. We live in a modern surveillance hellscape and not only is big brother watching you but he’s monitoring your purchase habits so he can sell you a smart refrigerator that will spy on you for the cia. the full weight of modern technology can be rallied to protect that straw monument to human hubris and I want us to burn it anyway. I want the might of modern society to crumple in the face of a drunk swede with a zippo lighter. we can do it just take my hand

The security at Gävlebocken this year is crazy. They got fucking Spiderman out there, man...

Free Wood Chip Mulch from ChipDrop

Helping gardeners get free mulch. Helping arborists empty their trucks.

If you have a yard and need mulch, the garden centers charge a fortune. But you can get mulch FOR FREE from Chip Drop.

If you are one of those people who think fancy, evenly chipped, dyed mulch is the only thing that will do, alas for you. That's not what you will get. And you shouldn't use dyed mulch anyway.

What you will get from Chip Drop is the detritus that arborists need to dump after they've done some tree clearing. I just got a pile of FREE mostly pine mulch over 6 feet high. It should be more than enough to meet my needs to suppress weeds on pathways and mulch around winter plants.

And it's FREE, though I paid the optional $20 fee.

All you have to do is sign up, and when there is an arborist in the area, you get your mulch. You can add your preferences as well, but if you are too picky, it will take longer to get what you want. It took me about a month to get my free mulch, and with a spate of warm weather coming this week, I'll have plenty of time to make use of it.

I use the Back to Eden and no dig gardening methods, and mulch is essential to my needs.

I highly recommend Chip Drop.

This is not a paid endorsement.

the grinch is fucked up right. he was created specifically as a critique of the commercialization of christmas, but now all his edge has been sanded off. now he's a generic mascot for "hates christmas," which is great to have because the commercialization of christmas has become so overbearing that that's a demographic you can market to! and now he's just part of the Christmas Fold. he's santa's edgier joker counterpart. he has become the very thing he sought to destroy. back in november i checked out a customer with a $1100 order and most of it was grinch merchandise
