Today's view

I've actually driven by this house a bunch of times so it was really fun to clean it and see what it looked like inside!

@mjausson AND THE COUCH IN THE LIVING ROOM WAS FACING THE TV, NOT THE VIEW!!!

Though otherwise it was a lovely house...

Boy, remember when Better Safe Than Sorry was a thing people used to say?

Two things today:

  1. A coworker is out with Covid. I worked with her last week while she was sneezing & had a runny nose. But I had my N95 on, & was also airing the house out so I did not get sick.
    (Always air out your vacation rental for at least an hour, folks)

#Covid

One coworker had to clean a house after a gender reveal party (gag!) where the guests used confetti inside & out!
PLEASE DO NOT USE CONFETTI AT VACATION RENTALS!!!
This is not your house, this is a place of business. We have a very limited time to clean the house before the next guest shows up & confetti takes forever to clean. If you like being able to check in on time, remember, it's because the guests before you didn't leave the house in a state. Pay it forward.
And tip your housekeeper.

@mjausson Yep! I always assume unmasked people are asymptomatic and proceed from there. Better safe than sorry!

@mjausson Yep, yep, yep.

@ai6yr That's the thing about vacation rentals. People come from all over to stay in them, and bring their germs with them.

@ChrisCPS @ai6yr Yep

So I guess I'm watching most of my local community get Covid this summer. #california

@rolandelli I weep for their future selves when they discover how bad SSDI is.

Today in The Atlantic, “killing children is good actually”.

Completely deranged.

[Uodate: I will block you if you have hare-brained hot takes on this.]

@thomasfuchs "Legally killed child" is the definition of evil.

Gonna try to assemble a bookshelf in the den. Might be hard, though because that's the room with most of the boxes in it. But I can't unpack them unless I have somewhere to put the stuff, so...🤷‍♀️

samhainnight,
@samhainnight@mstdn.social avatar

5 hrs and 1 phone call later, the bookshelf is finished!
Unfortunately, it's bigger than I thought, which is mostly good, but it blocks the light on the wall where I was going to put it, so I'm going to have to move more boxes so I can put it in a better place.

samhainnight,
@samhainnight@mstdn.social avatar

@mjausson Well, I was on the phone for an hour, took a break to water the garden and had to deal with multiple interruptions 🤷‍♀️

@ai6yr That seems bad…

Reading up on electric fences to keep bears out of the yard, as you do. So far, I haven’t found anything that would keep bears out that wouldn’t hurt the dogs.

samhainnight,
@samhainnight@mstdn.social avatar

@ai6yr Cost is a barrier for putting up two fences, and I don’t want to zap the doggies…

samhainnight,
@samhainnight@mstdn.social avatar

@mycotropic I’m thinking no

samhainnight,
@samhainnight@mstdn.social avatar

@ai6yr hmm...

@Pikestreet Interesting!

@SKleefeld Thhhppp!

@SKleefeld No, I don’t want to shock my doggies, especially old, blind Hank.

Trump is plotting ways to make it illegal to prosecute him for all the crimes he plans to commit if he retakes the White House
—and he’s tapping GOP leaders to carry out the plan, according to sources who spoke with Rolling Stone.

Trump has held meetings with “several” Republican lawmakers and attorneys about passing legislation to indemnify "former presidents" from nonfederal prosecutions
—an idea he probably wishes he thought of during his first term and before getting hit with a dazzling array of criminal and civil charges over and over and over and over and over again.

Sitting presidents are granted presidential immunity for actions they take in their official capacity, but that doesn’t extend beyond the presidency or apply to activities unrelated to the presidency.
This, however, doesn’t absolve him from crimes he committed prior to and after his time in office, nor does it extend to nonfederal crimes.

Trump hinted at his new scheme during a break from his hush-money trial, telling cameras Congress needs to
“pass lots of laws” to prevent “things like this”
(Trump being charged for crimes).
Whether the ploy will work is a matter of elections: Trump would need to win in November, and Republicans would need to control the House and Senate.

Despite that, efforts have been underway to shield Trump from prosecution, including the introduction of the
“No More Political Prosecutions Act” introduced to the House in 2023 by Republican Representative Russell Fry,
which seeks to move state and civil cases against current and former presidents and vice presidents up to federal courts, effectively freezing those cases.
Simultaneously, Trump’s team has been working to revive and expand a Nixon-era Department of Justice memo prohibiting the prosecution of sitting presidents—and former presidents.

@cdarwin Once again, a memo is NOT a law, and has no legal standing.
