@unusual_whales How does anyone with half a brain take this asshole seriously anymore? How much longer are we going to sit by and watch everything disintegrate?
Election Day should be a national holiday. No one should be working. We should be at the polls and then maybe a bbq as we wait for results to come in. There should be floats and parades. We shouldn't have to beg people to go out and vote. It should be celebrated.
@hoppingbriars I'm just feeling Blair mountain vibes right now. Husband already received a text from vultures trying to buy our property like they've done in Hawaii after the fires. FAFO
@OldNurseSilva I live here. I am a multi generational local aka bona-fide appalachian American. I am in contact with friends & fam all over these hills with texts and pictures. No one has to prove shit to you when clearly you're only here in bad faith. Do better
As the news media FINALLY begins covering the severity of the issues out west, there will be a heavy focus on Asheville and the greater Buncombe County area. Rightly so, as I am sad to report that the loss of life in that area is expected to be significant. We hope and pray for a better outcome, but we are prepared for the worst.
What the media will probably not be reporting on are the dozens of smaller communities across western North Carolina that too find themselves without water and life-saving supplies. Many of these communities have received virtually ZERO state or federal support. We are working tirelessly to ensure that these areas are not forgotten.
Our team has a growing number of leaders on the ground working hand in hand with law enforcement to execute search and rescue missions, as well as to deliver life-saving assets not only to Buncombe County, but to all areas that otherwise may have been overlooked.
Please continue to pray for the people of western North Carolina and their loved ones.
I don’t know who to credit for this video yet. Will share when I know. It is a local and the video was shared in my family’s group chat. Downtown Chimney Rock, North Carolina is completely gone 😔
