In light of the recent California fires here's a tip from the child of a disaster preparedness professional: make a go bag.

A "go bag" is a tote bag or backpack filled with essentials kept within easy reach in case you need to evacuate your home. This could be fire, flooding, a tornado, earthquake, prolonged power outage, chemical spill, etc.

My personal go-bag has:

first aid kit

pet first aid kit

bottle of ibuprofen

sewing kit

pocket thermometer

hair ties

brightly colored ribbons or flagging tape

pads and tampons

small wrench

dehydrated washcloth

pens and highlighters

hand sanitizer

travel sized lotion, shampoo, and conditioner bottles

tea bags

emergency candle

lighter or matches

You might also want to add things like a spare phone charger, flashlight/headlamp/glowstick, whistle, water filter, MRE's, a space blanket, or a fire blanket depending on what kind of natural disasters are most common where you live.

Additionally, you should keep all your personal documents (or copies of them) together in a place you can reach easily. You should be able to shove them in your go bag on the way out of your house.

On April 16th 2025 the US federal government has proposed to change the interpretation of the endangered species act so that it no longer protects habitat.

This is open for public comment until the end of May 19th. Please comment and make your voice heard.

Wildlife need their habitat. If the ESA redefines harm so that habitat is no longer protected, the implications for wildlife would be catastrophic.

Sending love to everyone who is just... tired. Life is a lot, and sometimes the answer to it all is to just be still and silent for a while. Give yourself space and grace. Whether it’s decision fatigue, anxiety fatigue, information fatigue, routine fatigue, getting life back together fatigue, career fatigue, social fatigue, financial fatigue, or physical fatigue—take a moment to breathe and recharge. You deserve it.
