Beautiful. I'll fire up photoshop later for an artistic rendering of what I was thinking of but this is glorious all the same. Thank you.

So they'll open the gates, leave, and feel bad for a minute. But after a few days, the tranchers will have already moved on emotionally since they can lie to themselves and think the animals are fine in the wilderness.

They might be right since they're so bad at taking care of them I wouldn't be surprised if they were marginally improved out there.

I hope the locals enjoy dealing with rutting Alpacas for ten years, but mad props to the guy who

I'm just glad there's no human/alpaca hybrids since almost all of the troons removed their balls. Like goatmam, but steals women's clothing and tries to eat wifi cables.

The likely end result is the introduction of invasive Trashpacas rifling through suburban garbage bins as a result of the Tranch's staggering incompetence.

You know this is the only time I'd consider getting a Kiwi team out there: get a bunch of tards to either corral and save some alpacas or shoot them for the greater good of the land.

What if they do bring all their animals with them? It wouldn't be the first time Penny keeps someone who's a money sink around.

Penny lying about the Farms:

I'm upset that he didn't mention we encouraged trans Waco. We're too fat and lazy to send death threats and we're betting on themselves or the environment first.

My bet is that the leak wasn't that bad, and either the Tranchers themselves or a hired plumber fixed it within the first couple days, Probably didn't even cost more than $500. The rest of the time they just lied for the grift.

If I were to guess, this is where some of the toy and weed money comes from. Don't say Kevin is a bad boyfriend to Penny for not sharing money, Penny has plenty and uses it for diddly squat. They're both such MASSIVE leeches and fuck ups that trying to guilt trip Kevin by saying he doesn't contribute to the tranch is silly - no one does.

Unlike last year, there's no GoFundMe; the Tranchers just want people to either send homemade goods (to the Tranch), buy stuff off an Amazon Wishlist (that again goes to the Tranch), or donate directly to Penny's Paypal.

I hope it's been ignored. I would wonder if the Lakota could hold the tranchers to their promises but I'm guessing they have better things to do and deal with than 4 white guys pretending they have the special connection with them and not getting much money from it.

Firestarter even got seed funding because of their successes to move into new digs and do a 'solar punk' sort of thing. Anarchists, yes, but successful. I'm a bit jelly.

I'm so used to trans people being failures that I'm amazed and proud. It's nice to hear political hardcore trans that can keep to their values and not genocide alpacas, keep it up.

I'm going to have to be "that guy" here and ask, wouldn't a daily genocide eventually wrap up?

Maybe it's a measurement on how many people have had SRS on their genitals? So it only increases?

67000 acres and change of cattle ranch, all about a mile west of the Tranch (which I trust you can spot without me highlighting it).

This is reassuring in a sense. Like, there's people out there who actually know how to farm with big land...farming. Tranch really is but a speck of dust.

At this point I'm half expecting that propane tank or line to fail. Not in some glorious fireball of an explosion, but just a bad connection, bad cable, or abused tank leading to a leak that drains the whole thing out the day they set it up. The sort of disaster that both fucks them over immediately, but mid term as well as they try to identify what failed - You don't wanna top off a bad tank, or connect a good tank to bad lines. And while It'd be easier to spot, they still get bonus points if one of the animals ends up chewing up the line.

I have other thoughts on how their heating is going to give out.



A large semi-buried tank, great there is probably enough thermal mass and protection by the ground that it won't be a problem. A tiny tank right there out in the open with the wind cooling it? Yeah that's going to be a problem.

Pressure scales with temperature (PV=NkT). Given a fixed volume and quantity of gas a quickly dropping temperature also quickly drops the pressure.

Unless they jacket or shelter that bottle they're going to suddenly find that nothing will turn on.

This also assumes they went and got 100% propane rather than going for a cheaper propane/butane mix which will perform a lot worse at colder temperature.

I await the fallout of winter, I am simply here for it.

 

[S.C.U.D.]

Are they going to take any of the alpacas with them or will they just leave them to freeze/starve to death in the dustbowl?

What do you think? They only think for themselves. I wish the animals could go and leave them behind to freeze.

It's gonna be fine, they stuck it in the middle of the yard and their property has basically no wind breaks.

 

[KiwiFuzz]

I'm still proud of coming up with "tranche" for their additional properties, but I will freely admit that it's not as good as "tranchise."

 

[Vesperus]

The neighbours will be lucky if they take them to the "no questions asked" wolf place.
We'll find out in the spring when the bodies thaw.

Those poor alpaca...

Dead honest, -2 with windchill is nothing to Alpacas. They encounter worse in the Andes.
OTOH... didn't the alpacas get a late shearing this year? or was that last year?

True, the alpacas will probably be mostly fine if they stay in the barn.
IIRC, the Tranchers did an irresponsibly late shearing last year (like in the Fall rather than in Spring). They didn't shear at all this year, which Paul actually complained about here:

Funny to think that the Tranch's incompetence might have saved the alpacas this winter.

Anyway, there's nothing new to report. The Tranchers have been pretty quiet on social media, although to be fair, it's nearly Christmas and they have their hands full dealing with the cold.

I don't think its incompetence. I think its outside competence. You're only supposed to shear alpaca every two years (one of the issues with Alpaca wool).

Very guys, this is the 3rd or 4th Tranch winter and we've yet to have a mass grave show up.

When was the last time we saw a pic of more than 20-30 alpaca? The pics above look like survivors on a green life raft, uncertain about their future.

The post-tranch property cleanup will be an exciting chapter

 

[𝓗𝓾𝓰𝓱 𝓦𝓸𝓽𝓶𝓪𝓮𝓽]

So the alpaca will be able to clump together and/or current temps aren’t a big deal for them, but what about the ducks, geese, goats, dogs? You’ll pardon my ignorance, but I don’t think the waterfowl are as hardy or fluffy as the alpacas. Would the alpacas let the goats cluster in with them for warmth? If that happens, are the goats at a higher risk for being crushed or suffocate?

So this might be total garbage but I work with propane in some pretty cold weather. Not -44, but we start seeing issues starting at -25. While the propane itself is fine, it can be a fucking terror trying to get the tank to work. Those things freeze over and there's no way some disabled dainty women are strong enough to open the tank back up once it freezes.

I assume they'd be running it constantly so maybe that wouldn't be an issue? I don't know. This is actually the first time I've seen someone using propane heat.
