Good goat times today. A cold morning, with a little rain. Not the best weather to goat in. Muddy, naturally. We did get a little spell of sunshine later on, so that was something. But this was the first time since last winter that I did not spend any time without a jacket on. Sigh.
But good goats, thankfully. Spent some sweet time in the shelter with Mia, Milo and Sky. The little sitting in the hay and chewing their cud. Mia standing next to me, leaning her head against my chest. I love that closeness.
Nuller was bleating a bit differently today. Usually he’s loud and bratty and sometimes practically unhinged. But today a lot of his bleats were little soft ones, almost like whimpers. Not like there was something wrong with him, it just sounded like a little sad baby. Manipulating me for extra treats. There were loud machines working again too, on the other side of the pen this time. That and the mud made for slightly bothered goats. At least that’s what they said when they asked for extra treats. I guess it’s extra treats for everyone then.

So fucking embarrasing.
Can you believe it?
All caps. America, I implore you. The next time you pick a president. Please. For the love of all that’s holy. Pick someone who doesn’t TWEET IN ALL CAPS.
I don’t even care if you pick another Bush or Clinton. Jut ffs check their timeline first. You could even check for racism and misogyny and stuff like that, but I guess that’s too much to expect.
But can you at least pick someone who KNOWS HOW THE CAPS LOCK KEY WORKS?
What a fucking disgrace.

Does anyone else have a lockbox inside them? Not a physical one of course, a mental one. A place you store stuff that’s too painful to think about? I posted a baby picture of Palle on the page yesterday, and someone asked what happened to him. Normally thinking of Palle makes me happy. Enough time has passed that I can remember the joy. But there are some things I just can’t think about without breaking down. And I lock them away in a box and try to keep my distance from them. It’s mostly the deaths of goats really. And a few other things. But I can feel when I approach it. Whne my line of thought starts heading in that direction. Finding Palle.. finding Kamel… Mio collapsing on me.. even just writing this. I have to back off or I’ll fall apart. I just can’t. Can’t let myself.
I know I should confront the feelings and process the memories and face the fears and all that. But I can’t. I’m just going to keep stuffing stuff into that box until it explodes some day. Dynomite.
I wish I could make everything okay for everyone always and no one had to suffer and there was no pain and everything was perfect nonstop. Which would also probably be super healthy. Sigh. Anyway. Life is what happens while you’r busy trying to avoid it, I guess.

You know what was a good show? Siberia. I am still angry they cancelled Siberia. Bring back Sbieria, finally a cause we can all get on board with.

So apparently ‘dragged’ is a thing now? I don’t understand who makes up these new meanings of words and then everybody just agrees that this things means that things. I don’t think this is cromulent.

I ordered myself some supplements that are supposed to help enhance your dreams and make them more vivid and lucid. Arrived today. I am going to bed early to sleep for a long time and test them out. My dreams are already extremely vivid so I have no idea if they’ll have any effect, or if it’s all snakeoil. Mmm, snake oil. Anyway, we’ll see. I’ll tell you tomorrow, if I don’t decide to stay in the dream place. Toot toot.

Today will be a good day. Here’s one of the first goat photos I ever took. It’s Mathilde in the background, and the goat in front must have been her mother. This is from before I started visiting the goats all the time, so I never got to know her really.

Did you all watch My Cousin Vinny?
Wow.
I’m not gonna lie, it’s kind of amusing seeing Trump lose court case after court case while reeking of desperation on twitter.
But it’s also sad. Putting Rudy in charge of things means he knows he’s not going to win, he’s not even going to really try. He’s just going to keep this going until he’s dragged out of the White House. So he’ll be able to go on his town hall tour and tell everyone that he didn’t lose the election and that it was a coup and he’ll have the whole crowd chanting LOCK THEM UP.
It’s depressing that the Republican party doesn’t have the spine to stand up to him and tell him it’s over. But I guess it’s hard when you have to appease your base, the kind of white militia folks who wanted to have weekly televised executions of public officials in Michigan. Yeah, great people on all sides.

Sometimes it’s hard to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and see things from their pespective. To imagine what their life might be like.
Like, what’s it like having to hear other people constantly trying to tell you that you’re wrong about your gender or sexuality? What’s it like being an astronaut in space? What’s it like doing a job that endangers your health every day? What’s it like having to argue that Rudy Giuliani is competent and making important points that should be listened to?
I just can’t even imagine what it’s like.

The Republican party’s official twitter account tweeted out that Trump won by a landslide.
Fucking nuts. I think Biden is currently up almost 6 million in the official count. So a landslide the other way.. That would mean there has been what, 10 million illegal votes? How could there be election fraud by the magnitute and they still haven’t been able to prove it in any of the court cases?!
It’s fucking insanity.

Good goat times today. Cold morning, though. The coldest yet I think. Only barely above freezing. Lots of sun, but it barely helped. I miss springtime..
But the goating is good. I gave Sky some special attention today. To make up for her low standing in th hierarchy. I know it’s just normal for goats, but it’s still sad to see her have to run away from the others so much. So I took her out of the pen and spent some quality time with her. Her, me and three juicy oears. Yum! She enjoyed those a lot. And the peanuts for dessert. I pays off to be the undergoat. Win the hearts of the humans and you’ll get the extra goodies.
Sassy is definitely not the undergoat. She was being a sassy little beotch today. Haha. Chasing the other littles around. Even Lily, her presumed daughter, got a few headbutss in the side. I love the undergoats, but I do also love the bossy goats who think they are the unimpeachable god-emperors of the universe. The ego of a goat is about the size of a funny metaphor that I can’t think of right now.
Good thing there are enough treats for all.

Here’s Mia watching Sky’s pear party. As you can see we had some visitors stopping by while I had Sky out of the pen. They wanted to give Mia hay, but it was old dirty hay and Mia was much, much more interested in the juicy pears that Sky was getting.

If your country is in the middle of a pandemic, and the charity you choose to donate money to is the bail of a guy who shot protesters in the street, you might not be going to heaven.
Dolly Parton cures covid, Rick Schroder gets a murderer out for Thanksgiving. Guess who’s going to get invited to Marago.

Trump skipping the G20 summit event on the pandemic to go golfing is so incredibly on-brand that I’m sure no one is surprised. Literally hundreds of thousands of Americans dead, and he goes golfing. Unfuckingbelievable.
You know he cheats at golf too. One hundred percent.
What a giant stain on American history, and in such a short time.
Breaking news from NewsMucho: President Trump becomes first golfer in history of golfing to hit a hole-in-none, while being very handsome. And your grandchildren loves you and your pets are frontrunners to win pet of the year. Don’t forget to wash your hands, before sticking it up the turkey’s ass grgrgdgdgdgdfdf
