Will you help me brainstorm more? How would you spell your favorite wave sounds? ππ
This stopped me in my tracks. And when I started again, it was to run to @yourfriendnamee.bsky.socialβs website to find offerings and teachings and ways to support.

Oct. 1 is a historic day. It marks the official end of federal funding for public radio and television.
But public media endures: independent, resilient and powered by you. Here at KTOO, weβll keep telling the stories that matter to Juneau and Alaska.
We may be defunded, but we remain determined.
Ultimately, 32 Chunkβs grit and determination tipped the scale. Fat Bear Superfan Na Mee celebrates the impressive, massive, emphatically fat champion and all his resilience.

May you be loved and protected
May you eat well
and live large
Our communities are interconnected. If you feel endeared to the FBW bears, I hope youβll also nurture the wildlife in your area, and the wild life within yourself. The champions do more than survive; they engage w/ their world in their own extraordinary ways, w/ their own unique strengths & stories

This was Fat Bear Weekβs biggest year ever. Online: over 1.5 million votes streamed in from around the world. Offline: some of the fattest fat bears to date, thanks to their top sponsor, salmon. Shout out to the ecosystem for being so dang epic, and big ups to all who preserve it.
01.10.2025 15:49 β π 13 π 3 π¬ 1 π 0Ultimately, 32 Chunkβs grit and determination tipped the scale. We celebrate this impressive, massive, emphatically fat bear and all his resilience. Congratulations Chunk the Hunk!

Oooh, the plot thickened!
By the time Fat Beat Week rolled around, 32 Chunk had more than qualified in size, hustle, and gains. He took the week one match at a time, but his bad boy history threatened to weigh him down. Could he make a comeback from the darkness of his past?
01.10.2025 15:49 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 1 π 032 Chunk started the season strong but had a major setback when he showed up w/ a broken jaw. Lucky for him, a historic salmon run spelled a rags to fishes story for this busted up behemoth, & he managed to side-mouth slow-chew his way through summer.
