Family health update.
My brother was admitted to the hospital. Dude. I don’t blame you if you think I’m making all this up. I wish I was. Well, my brother got a fever. My first thought was ‘oh no corona’ but he tested negative for that, so that’s good at least. But they still have to find out what’s wrong with him. He’s in a high-risk group after the the kidney transplant and all that. The tests showed no problems with the kidneys, but they didn’t show any clear cause of what’s wrong. They think maybe an infection of some kind. So we’ll see. Hopefully it’s nothing serious.
My dad has been to the doctor and gotten a referral to an orthopedic clinic, hopefully they can figure out why he’s in so much pain.
My mother is home and seems to be doing ok, though some of her levels are still not quite where they should be.
Hopefully everyone will be ok. It’s stressful that there’s always something going on now. You gotta wonder if I’m next for a hospital trip…I better watch my step.
I did not make it out yesterday or today. Mostly because of depression and anxiety. But we’ll see. The heat continues. I may require emergency iced creams.

Think goat thoughts

You think there will ever be another president who will refer to a political opponent as ‘pocahontas’?
You think, let’s say, 200 years from now there will be Americans who feel comfortable supporting a president who refers to people like that?
Or substitute pocahontas with any oft he other racist sexist dumb things he say. You think there will ever be another president who’s a piece of shit trashy reality show dropout with multiple casiona bankrupcies?
You think people think?
You think i’m made of rubber or glue? You think you can take me? You wanna piece o me. You ever dance with the devil in the blazing sun. You got nothing on me. you like it then you shoulda put a ring on it. no you hang up. Beep beep beep

Good goat times today. So good to get out and goat again. Lovely day for it as well. Another hot day. Started out around 20C/68F in the morning and climbed higher as the day went on. But with a fair bit of cloud coverage and wind, so it was very pleasant. And being with the goats is always pleasant. Good for the heart and mind.
It’s a lot quieter now the fourth graders are back in school. We did get a few visitors though, and I had to lead the goats over to hte fence so they could get some closeup time. One kid was petting Mia and her mother had to keep telling him not to poke her in the eye. Haha. Reminds me of grandma Mio, who was always the perfect petting good and would always stand still and behave even when kids were putting fingers in her ears or eyes or nose. Mia didn’t use to be so patient with kids, but since grandma passed on she’s taken on that role. Didn’t flinch at all while the boy was mandhandling her. Sweet girl.
I did some renovation and building in the goat pen too. Nothing extraordinary but I’ll show you the pics later. And then of course lots of lounging around, eating treats (the goats) and drinking iced cola (me).
Much better.

O hai.
Yes, today was my first time wearing a mask. I only have to use it in the bus, though. I just put it on to model for a pic. The goats didn’t seem too bothered. Although Mia got a little confused when I made kissy noises. That’s normally the signal for her to give me a smooch, but she didn’t quite now how to do that when my face was gone.
It wasn’t too bad wearing the mask, although i’m glad I don’t have to ride the bus for too long. When I wear it over my nose, as you should, it fogs up my filter glasses. Which makes me even blinder than normal. I found that breathing through my mouth helped.
For now I have ot wear a mask in the busses until September 1st. So we’ll see how that all goes.

I made a new platform for the goats. The wooden board there. You may, or may not, remember that there used to be two platforms with pavement tiles on them. Unfortunately one of them was dismantled by the workers over the summer. And the took some of the pavement tiles away so I couldn’t recreate it. Too bad. I liked the symmetry of the two paved platforms, and it was a nice place for Milo and Sky to sit. Oh well. So now there’s only one paved platform, but to get something more for the goats to climb on I fixed up that wooden board as a platform. Goats just love climbing and jumping on stuff. Even if it’s only an inch above the ground, it still triggers the mountain goats in them. So that’s something. Nothing special, but better than nothing.

12/8 2020

.
Yay, the new platform is Mia approved! We’ll see if this will be her new favourite place to sit. Or if she will still prefer the small platform where her butt hangs over the side because it’s too small.

Family health update.
Not much conclusive news. The doctors suspect my brother may have pneumonia. They were going to scan his lungs, but I haven’t heard about the results of that yet. Seems like the penicillin has helped his fever, though. There’s something else though, they’ve found a red spot on his ankle. Very sore. The doctors couldn’t say what it was. So they have to keep an eye on that. My parents said there was talk of him coming home tomorrow, but that sounds a little optimistic to me. We’ll see.
My dad didn’t sound too great on the phone. Tired and in a lot of pain. His referral to the orthopedic clinic was acute, so hopefully he can get in quick and hopefully they can fix him.
Mom sounded ok.
I feel better after seeing the goats. Quite tired now though, so I’m going to go dreamwalk. See you on the other side if you get the invite.
Once again, thank you everyone for, well listening. Thank you.

Family health update. Well, my brother is back home and sounds to be doing ok. So that’s good. They now think he didn’t have pneumonia after all, but ‘sore throat’. Which is what google translates says ‘halsbetændelse’ is. Ok. Sore throat sounds like nothing, I think halsbetændelse is a little worse than that. But ok. Not pneumonia so that’s good.
Meanwhile the red spot on his ankle was probably just a ‘blood clot’ which is what google translate says a ‘blodsamling’ is. BLood clot sounds like a dangerous thing in your blood vein that could kill you, but blodsamling is just a gathering of blood under teh skin, like if you got hit or something.
I dont know, medical translations am I right?
The important thing is that he’s doing ok and back home, and will be allowed to go back to work on Monday.
My dad got an appointment at the orthopedic clini on september 1st. I wish it coudl be sooner, but hopefully he can make it ok till then. He’s got a suspicion of what it could be and I’m not going to go google translating that too, but if he’s right then it’s something he’s experienced before and it can be treated and cured and he can be back home feelign better in an hour or two. So I forking hope so, although that would almost be too good to be true.
But for now things are trending upwards I guess.
Thanks eveyrone for the supports.

Here’s another of the things I did in the goat pen yesterday. That pallet there. It used to be the bottom layer on the paved platform that the workers took apart. The pallet was just lying around on the ground now, so I figured I’d put it up on the pile of branches and give the goats something new to climb around on.

Here’s Sassy, Lily and Nuller one the new pallet platform. Doesn’t take long for me to put something new up before there are goats climbing on it. They love to climb and explore new things.

Trigger warning: Politics and uninformed ranting. Here’s my hot take on Biden and his vp.
I’m not really a fan of Biden. I’m not really a fan of Harris either, although admitely I barely know anything about her because my brain is like that storage locker that’s full and i can’t cram anymore into it. But anyway. I’m not necessarily a fan of that ticket. And I understand why some people might not like them or want to vote for them. But in my book, and my book isn’t American and therefore has no forking relevance to anything, there is only one objective in that election. And that’s to get rid of Trump. No, I don’t care. About anything. No objection you have can outweigh the fat toddler on the seesaw. I’m fat and dumb, I can say that. To me that’s all that matters right now. America needs to show that Trump is not America. That is not what America is about. That is not who America is. There are shitty people on both sides, but Trump is a mountain of shit and until you climb that mount everest of feces you will not be able to see the horizon. Metaphors are hard.
So, get of rid of Trump. And then work towards changing the system or the world or whatever. You just need to get rid of Trump. Even if Biden/Harris would be bad, you can’t seriously think that you’d rather have four more years of yo antisemite. I mean, you can. It’s a free world. For now…
But it’s a long-term project. Getting rid of Trump is step one. And you can’t skip that step. Because then you tell us all that Trump is what you want. That Trump is ok. And then nothing fucking matters. Then reality is the internet and everyone is racist sexist transphobic greedy griefer forking shirtballs.
If you can’t get excited about Biden/Harris then please get excited about showing the world that your country isn’t as bad as everyone (apaort from other fascist states) think you are right now.
THank you, and please buy my shirt on the way out. I don’t get paid for these speeches, I have to make a profit off the merchandise.
Goodnight America, whoever you are.

Good goat birthday party times today.
Yes, today is Mia’s birthday! Eight years old. Can you believe it? Time is a weird beast. It feels like 8 years is forever but it sounds like such a short time. I can barely remember life before Mia. She’s been one of the best things ni my life, and through her facebox page I have met some of the best people in my life. Thanks for being part of the journey!
glorious, sunny day. In the past when celeibrating special occasions I’d bring watermelons for the goats. But they’re so big and heavy to carry and the goats never get super excited about them. Scary round things. So today I tried something new. I brought some assorted goodies that they never get. Strawberries, blueberries, grapes, watermelon slices and mixed other melon slices. I srtarted out by letting Mia try them all, and she loved it all. After she’d had a good deal of goody goodies I put the rest in their feeding boxes so everyone could have a taste. Goat party yummies! I had to make sure Sky got some too. No wonder she’s the smallest, she often gets chased away from the food and then she ends up standing a bit away and bleating complaints while the others eat. I made sure she got to taste the treats too.
So that was a big success and we had a good time in the sun.
Eight years. Mia’s an old lady now. She still wags her tail like an excited puppy when I give her treats. I hope she still has a lot of good years left. I love her to the moon and back.

Had some great dreams last night. My brain conjured up two original Smashing Pumpkins songs. If you knew me back when, you might know that The Smashing Pumpkins is my One True Band. Maybe less so today. But certainly growing. My favourite band since I started listening to real music. So i thought it was pretty neat that my brain came up with two original sp pieces. One was called When I Lie I Lie. Now, as attached to this post, the pumpkins do have an old soing called Lie I Lie, so that may be where the title came from. But Lie I Lie is a very old and obscure song. And the song in my dream was vastly different and also came with a music video that was really cool and weird and would have fit in great on MTV in the 90s. As an fp fan it was like suddenly getting a brand new single from Mellon Collie.
The other song was a more lowkey acoustic thing and it was on my phone. As in, someone called me and when I picked up the song was playing. It was called Drought. And when I woke up I was still humming it. If I had been a more musically savant person and had had a pen and paper I’m pretty sure I could have written it down and had it completely saved for posterity.
As it is with dreams, they fade. The songs have faded too. Too bad. But it was a treat. Imagine finding previously unknown songs by your favourite bands, or a book by your favourite author that you’d never heard of.

We had some visitors yeserday after the birthday party yesterday. A couple of sweet girls, I believe they were sisters. They young one is feeding Mia here while the older is in the background getting more leaves. The older girl was really excited by the girls and talked to me quite a bit. Some kids are really eager to tell you stuff about their lives and such, you get the impression maybe they’re not used to adults actually listening to them and giving them time to talk and all. While I’m better at listening than talking, and I think maybe they like that. Or maybe I’m imagining all that. But anyway, she was talking about how she loved the goats, how she couldn’t have pets because she lived in a smasl apartment, how she wished Mia was her goat, asking what she should do so the goats got used to her like they’re used to me etc. Super sweet. And she told me she was turning 9 in, I think, 15 days. So almost a year older than Mia. The younger girl was less talkative, they spoke a foreign language together so maybe her Danish wasn’t so good. But they both loved running back and forth getting greens for the goats.

God goat times today. A lovely day. Started a little chilly, but as the day wore on the sun did its thing and it became quite warm, bordering on hot. Lovely blue skies dotted with puffy white clouds.
When I got to the goats there were already visitors at the fence. They quite enjoyed seeing me come and lob greenery into the pen. They were happy they got to see the goats eat. And pretty much as soon as they left, another group of visitors arrived and sweet kids had lots of fun fun feeding the goats. One lady asked “how often do the goats eat?” to which I replied “as often as they can”. There were even more visitors later on, including some kids that jumped into the goat pen. Whicfh caught me off guard, but they were kids from the playground and had permission. I heard them say something about how te goat could headbutt. And apparently number 18 was the one to look out for. Haha. Milo’s got a reputation!
He might be a giant scary goat buck, but he’s also a bit of a scaredy cat. I was doing a little tidying up and was moving a big wooden board. And Milo freaked out and ran away and bleated at me like he thought I was carrying a big goat torture instrument around. Sheesh. You never know what the goats will be scared of. Someone on Mia’s page asked if I ever brought them toys, like balls. Hah. Every time I’ve brought a ball the goats have thought it was the devil itself. They do not like unfamiliar things.
But everyone calmed down and there was much sweetness and relaxing in the sun. Perfect day, good for the soul.

He’s actually not super heavy, I could still let him do it but… considering all the back problems I’ve been having that’s probably not a good idea. Too bad, it’s such a great trick to do for visitors delight.

I see Neil young is suing the Trump campaign. Good for him. Here’s my hot take: Political parties should not be allowed to use artists’ music or works without explicit prior permission. Doesn’t matter if it’s Trump or Biden or anyone else. A political message or standpoint is so important, especially to an artist, a politician should not be allowed to just take a piece of music and use it to promote their political ideology without permission. It’s not like politicians would be ok with someone using their image to promote a product or ideology they don’t believe in.
And it’s fucking ridicky when someone like Trump uses the music of people that obviously think he’s a racist cartoon clown.

There’s another us somewhere with much better lives..
I think Out Of Sand may be the best song everty written. Quite possibly. It’s like that scene from The Constant, I can’t listen to itwithout crying. I deeply relate to so many of those lines…
I put it on by accident just now and had a minor breakdown also visceral flashbacks to watching Twin Peaks The Return. I wish i could grab that magic again. A life less Lynch. You can never have it again. Who we were will never come again, dude.
The only line I can’t relate to is “fearful of dreams, there’ll be no sleep tonught”. I love the dreams, even the dark and scary ones. I love going to bed at 1 pm and sleeping all day and night. Drifting in and out of sleep, the dreams become so vivid. The border between reality and makebelieve get blurred. The other night I woke up in a dream and thought ‘oh I’m definitely awake for real this time, because this is too real to not be reality’ and then later I woke up again. Watching Twin Peaks is like watching a dream. I hope when I die my brain will keep dream for a long time, until all the e lec tri ci ty is gone
So anyway

Good goat times today. A hot one! Upwards of 30C/86F. And we don’t get that too often in Denmark. I know some Americans will scoff at that, but coming off the coldest July in 22 yearse, this is quite the contrast. There was a lot of cloud cover, though, which made it less baking. But yeah it got hot, especially later on.
A fun day, and a busy one. Lots of kids again. I found out why. One of the playground staffers, I think her name was Else Maria or Else Marie, told me that this week they are opening up for the new fourth graders from 8-12 in the morning. I guess the kids who are starting fourth grade now are elligible to start using the playground, and this is sort of an ‘intro week’ for them. Before school starts up. So that means constantly kids everywhere. Which is a little taxing for my social phobia. Normally the kids I deal with are kindergarten/daycare/School groups who come to play and see the animals and they usually only stay with the goats for 10-20-30 minutes and then move on. And then I can decompress. No decompression time when the kids are there constantly. These kids aren’t visitors, they’re part of the playground. I’m not sure if my fb friends quite understand the concept of a public playground like this. But these kids stay at the playground and help take care of the animals and do activities and stuff. I believe they were having a barbecue at the playground fireplace today for example.
So anyway. It was a lot of fun. Normally the kids aren’t allowed in the goat pen without an adult from the playground is in there with them. But Else Marie asked me if it was okay that they came in with me and I could be the adult supervision. So of course I said yes to that. So I got to spend a lot of time with a couple of handfulls of kids and talked to them about the goats and how to behave around them and answer questiosn etc. Good times.
Okay, enough typing for now. I’m sure most of you have checked out from reading this already haha. I have more to tell about the day, but I’ll gof ind a cute picture and write more later on.
PS Hello my name is Lasse and I purchased iced creams at the supermarket today.

Alrighty then. Part 2 of today’s good goat times.
So it was quite fun with the boys in the goat pen. I helped them pet Milo, which they were quite proud of. They called him the bandit, haha. Milo the bandit. Oh yes.
It’s nice when you feel like the kids are sort of looking up to you, for lack of a better term. I tried to give them a good experience. More kids joined us later on. there was a boy who was a little… he wasn’t mean to the goats, but you could if there wasn’t an adult around he might be the type to tease the animals. I tried to show him the proper way to be around the goats, to instill the value of being good to them. Being kind to animals is one of the most important things there is. Being kind to those you have kind of power or control or advantage over. Especially those that can’t say no with words. Anyway, I don’t know if I made any kind of difference, but one can hope.
There was a girl too who seemed to know a lot more about the goats and how to deal with them. For example she knew that Milo wasn’t a mean goat, just a goat boy trying to show he’s a big man. And she knew that Mia is ALWAYS sweet to all humans. And that she’s a different race from the others. One of the boys asked if the playground would have to sell the other goats when they grew to be Mia’s size. Haha. Six Mia-sized goats would be a handful. But the littles won’t get much bigger.
But yeah several different kids came in and out of the pen. When they weren’t in the goat pen they were with the bunnies. There was a bunny camp setup just across from the goat pen. I heard that one of the bunneis was named Vanilje, which I loved. Some of you may or may not know that one of my earliest goat friends was called Vanilje. The daughter of one of the original first goats when I started my goat adventues in.. gosh, 2004 I guess. She unfortunately passed away fairly young after childbirth complications. It’s nice to know there’s a little Vanilje bunny running around.
Oh there was an adult visitor who asked me about my facebook page too, so I gave her the address. I’m not completely sure if that was one of the playground staffers or a local visiting. But yeah, there are definitely people around there who are aware of Mia’s page. She told one of the kids that he could go look at all the beautiful pictures of the goats. When Else Marie was there she was also saying stuff about how amazing my connection with the goats was and stuff like that. Very sweet. I don’t often think very, if anything, positively about myself. It’s nice that I can bring some positivity to the people there, the kids hopefully, and people on facebook. That’s something at least.
I got to see Ophelia and Alice today too. I have barely seen them all summer I think. Being out in the horse field with the goats means I’ve been less on the actual playground grounds, and there’s been vacation of course, and I’m usually there early in the day and of course i’ve been away with family and health stuff at times. So it was good to see them again. Ophelia told the kids that since they were new at the playground they normally shouldn’t go in the goat pen without one of the playground adults, but since Lasse was there it was ok..
When I started packing my pack to leave one of the boys called out “Are you leaving now Lasse? Aw, then we can’t be in the goat pen anymore”. Aw. I’m sure they got more time later on with one of the other adults there. But it was nice to feel appreciated. They seemed to like talking to me about the goats and stuff. A couple of the kids were saying they wanted to work with the animals at the playground. Hopefully they can get to help take care of the goats and bunnies, and horses when they come back.
Okay I think that covers it for now. Big day. Lots of socializing and hot sunshine. Once school starts then the mornings should be a lot calmer. But it’s been fun with the kids.

Family health update… I was hoping I wouldn’t have to do these anymore. I actually got some bad news last night, but i didn’t want to post it before I knew more. And today it’s better news. But my mother was admitted to the hospital yesterday again. She was throwing up, and those kidney problems she had last were because of dehydration from t hrowing up and diarrhea. Also her blood pressure was way off. There was one measuring where both numbers were almost hte same, which basically means the heart is working as hard in active and resting state, if I understand it correctly. Which is pretty bad and can be dangerous. So she went to the hospital. My dad says they gave her a ‘shock’. I am not entirely sure what the medical or Englsih term is. But there was something wrong with her heart apparently… the good news is they got it sorted out and she’s coming back home today already. My dad and I both agreed that that seems early but.. you gotta trust the doctors I guess. Obviously we’ll have to keep a close watch on her blood pressure and other things, but hopefully it will be okay.
Meanwhile my dad still has pain problems ,which is worrying with all the pain medication he’s getting. He’ll be callign his doctor and on Monday and I hope they’ll give him an examination at the hospital. Gotta find out whats’ wrong. He’s been given a cane now to help him walking.
Hopefully we’re still on a good path, but it’s certainly not all perfect yet.

We’re not scaremongering, this is really happening. Take the money and run take the money.
I actually managed to do exercise today. For the first time in.. months I think. I just have not felt up to do exercise. Doing exercise is hard.
Felt good though. And my random music playlist served up two great Radiohead songs to begin with. Excellent.

Yo, anti-semite. Obamacare already did the pre-existing conditions.
But if people are dumb enough to believe Trump has ever read a page of the bible, they’ll believe anything.
And so forth and so on. Don’t forget to stand for the national anthem, pay respect to the flag, while he wipes his ass with it.

Well, looks like I have to wear a mask now. In the busses at least. It is now required in my city. Specifically in my city because my city is the one hardest hit by the upward trending curve. I don’t think the numbers are alarming yet, I think the last one was around 130 new cases, no deaths. But still, we’re a small country so I think it’s good they’re trying to change the curve. It so happens that a fairly large amount of the infected are Somalian refugees. And it so happens I live in a neighbourhood with a high concentration of immigrants and refugees. So it’s close to home. The other day, when I was buying iced creams, I was entering the supermarket and someone was going “…excuse me? Excuse me?” I thought they were talking to someone else, but then the woman came all the way over to me. She was trying to get me to use hand sanitizer. They normally have the hand sanitizer bottles right inside the store, but I guess now they’re just actively going around handing it out to people. It was a little awkward because of my visual impairment. But she was nice enough and squirted it in my hands. Pretty much the closest thing I’ve had to a date in years, am I right? *hand sanitized high five*.
Anyway. Now you have to wear the masks in busses, and they’re doing various other things to try and curb our enthusiasm for getting infected. I hope it works. With all the health problems my family is facing it would really not be good if we started getting the coroner too.
Oh I didn’t mention, but you remember I talked about Else Marie at the playground? She was actually wearing a helmet with a visir thing, or whatever it’s called. Like a police riot gear. It made me think welp, should I be wearing protection? There are a lot of immigrant and refugee kids at the playground too. But then Ophelia and Alice weren’t wearing any protective things. It is a concern though, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that someone with the virus could pet the goats and I don’t know if they can actually get infected, but the virus could be on the fur for at least a while. There were some news recently about the virus being found in mink farms…
anyway, no reason to get paranoid. I hope.
One of the measures is also that they’re telling people to not use public transportation if you cna avoid it. Maybe I should try walking to the playground again. Depends on how my back is doing I guess. But I got the face masks, so we’ll see how it all goes.

Oh thank goat in heavyweighten. I found the witch to turn back to classic facebook. There’s enough stress right now, I really can’t deal with a layout struggle. Please, facebook, keep the classic version as an option. Please.
For now, I guess I dodged the bullet.
What a scare. I can’t overstate how important this is, I will wear a mask if it keeps me on classic facebook. #Dramaqueef.

“Congrats! you have been gifted a Burger King”
Quick question, the owner of a Burger King gets to eat all the burgers he wants for free, right?

Duck! The horses aren’t back from vacation yet, so the horse field is empty now that the goats are back in the goat pen. But this tub of goaty drinking water is still left there… and our duckie decided to take a bath in it. It was pretty cute. Ducksy was swimming around in circle and flapping its wings. Good way to cool down now that the heat has arrived.

‘I wish this wasn’t a dream’ I said to her. Feeling her physical weight on top of me. She didn’t say anything. It’s funny how people in dreams don’t react when you tell them it’s a dream. I think in real life if you told someone that we were currently in a dream they’d protest or call you crazy. In dreams they never react. Soon enough came that terrible feeling of the grasp of reality coming and pulling me out of the dream. Like a giant hand pushing you off a cliff.
It was such a beautiful dream, if I could have stayed there forever I would.

Pretty sure the execute order is going to be a slip of paper written in crayon saying “Okay we’ll stop trying to repeal obamacare”.
But I mean as strategies go, trying to take credit for everything Obama did seems smarter than anything else he’s done. Too bad blackface is out now, otherwise he could have just dressed up as Obama and said ‘re-elect me and I’ll be Obama for the next 4 years’. But at least Kanye.
Pretty impressive that they’re willing to tank the entire postal service just to avoid mail-in votes, though. That’s dedication.
Okay I’m done for now. Sorry.
