If you’ve been watching the noise and paying attention to California, you’ve heard about the Camp Fire.
In a matter of hours, the fire jumped to 20,000 acres. This morning it reached 70,000. My town of Paradise, where I’ve lived my entire life, was consumed entirely. Very little containment has been reached and the situation is absolute hell.
My mom and my sisters and I barely got out, in separate cars, and we got separated for 10 hours. My mom and little sister were stuck in Paradise with all my pets in the flames until my stepdad was able to get gas to them so they could get out. My cat was lost, and I personally was only able to grab an extremely small amount of my own belongings because I was helping my mom to grab important documents and photos and to get the pets situated.
We are now homeless, with no clue where to go from here, and desperately in need of help to get food, clothes, supplies, anything. My mom has been disabled for 3 years and we survive on a single income from my stepdad, who is a firefighter. His friends have been hurt trying to fight this. We have a dog with us, and two guinea pigs, and a bearded dragon.
My mom set up a fundraiser, even though we are not at all the type to ask for so much help.

Sam's Rule of Improv: Any scene that can become sexual, will become sexual and most likely problematic (typically via unnecessary moaning sounds)
Tom's Rule of Improv: Avoid getting SFTH cancelled by begrudgingly taking the role of the group's Disappointed Father™ (typically involves unsexualizing and sanitizing Sam's contributions)
Luke's Rule of Improv: Play innocent, then shock your audience AND fellow improvisors by revealing your complete lack of shame and filter when their guard's down
AJ's Rule of Improv: If the plot is clearly going in one direction, take the soonest opportunity to steer that shit off a cliff
And of course the most important SFTH Rule of Improv: If someone makes a mistake, never EVER let it go. It's a plot point now.
Cindy is becoming one of my favourite characters, i fear

Tom’s Child category was gonna be ‘traumatized child’ but that was before I realized 3 of the 4 play children pretty often and every single one is traumatized
Yes the Witchfinder General is hilarious and absurd in concept, but so is Locomotion and even Sam admitted he was terrifying. Idek if I’ll have people arguing this, I’m just covering all my bases-
Krampus is purely there because they have this man a microphone and he became far too powerful
If there’s only one example listed, it means I know it’s happened more than once, but I can’t think of the others off the top of my head
Except for AJ’s bonus, I just always thought the was funny
Yes, ‘child that pisses people off’ ranges from being a little annoying to actual murder, but they both count
I used the phrasing ‘creatures’ instead of ‘animals’ on purpose, and I don’t think I have to explain why
