Dear Excellent Fediversian Who Recommended Timer Pill Bottle Caps: a thousand times thank you! These things are genius. SO many times (just now, for example) the timers have saved my brain-fogged ass from double-dosing. All technology should be this useful.

As an award-winning international legal scholar I’ll tell you how to “grapple with how to rebuild the public’s trust” in the Supreme Court: impeach the venal grifters, godbags, and sex pests. You think these scheming, entitled douchebags are just gonna go “oops, my bad, I won’t be a machiavellian jagoff no more” and that’ll be the end of it? Lol no. They’re compromised; their decisions are all illegitimate. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/10/01/supreme-court-new-term-ethics/

My mom was a rabid, MyPillow-buying consumer of Fox News until a couple of years ago, when she moved in with my sister and her Fox access was cut off. Since the stemming of the indoctrination tide, she has miraculously returned to her pre-trump self and regular non-fascist pillows. Like the rest of us normal people, she even held her nose and voted for Biden. It is truly astonishing what that network did to her. I can only imagine what would’ve gone down if she’d gotten hooked on Christian nationalist TV instead. https://assortedflotsam.com/@politicsbot/111079909147438603

I just tried to explain the Fedi to my octogenarian mother, after recapping the whole Twitter/Musk sitch, and she was incredulous that nobody officially controls the entire fedi thing. I mean, it clearly blew her entire mind that there was no single capitalist entity in charge of the whole enchilada. She’s staying here at the farm with me for the next 10 days, maybe I’ll get her to open her own account. She’s old and white, clearly Masto is her people. https://mstdn.social/@lowqualityfacts/110668860599506906

Noly likes to rest his giant, heavy head on the farrier’s back and fall asleep, which makes the farrier cranky, so my niece is conscripted to hold him up. This guy is serious about his beauty sleep. He’s the only horse I have ever seen fall all the way the fuck over while snoozing in the pasture. #Horses
