- Comment on DOJ’s Botched Infowars Auction Likely to Be Investigated by Trump AG Pick Matt Gaetz, Says Former Asst. AG 1 day ago:
They’ll confirm him. And all the rest. With no vetting. And, once he knows the path is clear, don jr and Ivanka and barron and maybe even Eric and Tiffany will get top jobs. And everyone will get security clearances. And one day, maybe 100 years from now, the 17 reasonable people who remain will throw tea and Bibles into a body of water and the water will be so hot that they’ll watch it steep, scoop some out, sit down for a cuppa, and then take their cyanide pills.

They’re so cute!! My DIL doesn’t want to see her family for Thanksgiving so we rented a house out of town for the weekend. It has llamas and I’m so excited to just sit and watch them. I hope i get to pet them!
- Comment on why are fax machines still used by medical systems? 4 days ago:
I have to fax docs a lot. Couple of years ago we started using stonefax so it’s like an email. I wish the faxing was the worst part - most take 1-3 calls to the doc to get them sent back.

- Comment on I'm going to try not to swear when you're around. Is this a good apology to a coworker? 1 week ago:
You don’t have to say anything, just change the behavior around them. If you’re required to apologize, “I’m sorry. I’ll work on that.” should suffice

I was going down the list, got high, and forgot what i was doing.
- Comment on Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit? 4 weeks ago:
On r/, i only really followed my interests - cats, cannabis, crochet, etc. Those topics getting less action here forced me to follow more communities. It surprised me how much i enjoy the general ask, news, eli5, til, art communities that i never would have followed when i had more niche content.

I think it’s opposite of that for runny noses.
- Comment on Woman Calls 911 When 100 Aggressive Raccoons Show Up in Her Yard | The Washington State resident fed some friendly critters for years. Then, their mean friends turned up. 5 weeks ago:

- Comment on How do I... Do court? I didn't realize my license was expired and got pulled over. Now I have court tomorrow. 5 weeks ago:
I went once for something similar - maybe registration - i can’t remember. I got there early and asked the clerk what to do. Before court started someone came out and made a deal for me to pay half the ticket, plus court fee (like $30) and get it resolved. Went with my DIL who had her license suspended many many times. Clerk helped us get the hardship paperwork and the judge was firm about following the rules but nice about explaining them.

Its not upcoming, but this weekend I’m going to stream Hayride to Hell. It was made by a couple in Pennsylvania to try to raise money for their family farm.
- Comment on What do allergies feel like for you? 1 month ago:
A doc described allergies and migraines the save wash to me - you have a cup and different triggers add a bit to your cup. That cup is your tolerance and you get symptoms when it overflows. It can be really hard to detect your triggers because it’s not just mountain cedar or soy or whatever - is 2% this and 3% that until it’s full. You can try a journal of everywhere you go, everything you eat, when/where you’re outside, etc.; but it’s easier to just take the meds. If you think the meds aren’t working, go off them for a few days and see how terrible you feel. On day 1 i get sniffly. By day 3 I itch so bad i can’t sleep.
