Way better of a dream than getting a goat in the mail.
[checks tracking] Should be there this afternoon.

'The Message'
Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I really need to start working "immunocompetent" into my everyday conversation.
Boss: You are absolutely incompetent in every way!
Me: Pfft! I'm completely immunocompetent.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Should be there this afternoon.
My neighborhood will shun me if I have a goat instead of chickens. It will be very sad.

Your yard will be filled with rusted out abandoned lathes overrun with baby goats. The neighbors will call you two "That smelly goat couple."

That's better than "those freaky lathe people."

Well fork, Tep. I hope all y'all's super powers keep it mild for him (and you and his dad negative)
Your neighbors would love for you to have a goat, Tep, don't even try to pretend otherwise. There would be cute goat pictures with your stately manor in the background all over NextDoor with captions like "I wish this was my goat"

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Not only cute, but if your neighbors should just, somehow, have a nasty obstinate patch of poison ivy you could turn the goat loose on it. Or not, depending on how the neighbors treat you. (How does poison ivy spread? is there a way to encourage it? just asking out of, um, scientific curiosity)

I like the “immunocompetent” idea! But dislike Tim getting covid again, yikes!!

Immunocompetent is a good word.

That's a real medical word! It just means having a normal immune system. #TheMoreYouKnow
