I experienced the same frustrations with our Walgreens, and thought that was as bad as it could get. Then my health insurance plan mandated that we all stop using in-person pharmacies and switch to this stupid mail delivery system. You know what’s worse than having to wait for Walgreens to open so you can talk to a pharmacist? Sitting on hold hoping to talk to the one anonymous random pharmacist Optum has on staff. Want to transfer a prescription? Having trouble with a particular manufacturer or generic? Good luck.

TIL Mastodon has a CEO.

Get yourself a good app & it can give you recommendations. Personally, I’m using IceCubes & really like it.

Also, look up the FollowFriday hashtag to see who others recommend. Cory Doctorow is there, so are Jeff Jarvis & Amanda Marcotte.

The Walgreens in my town has started closing their pharmacy early because they don’t have enough staff to run it.

He looks like a wise old cat.

Perfectly understandable.

I’m used to wealthy guys like this never having to answer for their crimes, so it’s nice to hear he’s at least being investigated. Not holding out much hope this will go anywhere, though.

It’s the principle of the thing. I’m not going to delete myself, pretend I wasn’t there for all those years. The record stands. (Except for any media posted prior to 2014, which now exists only on my personal cloud storage, I guess.)

I haven’t deleted my account - it’s 17 years old! But I also haven’t posted in a couple months other than saying I’ve moved to Mastodon. I said I’d hold on to the bitter end & I will. I’m not leaving, they’ll have to evict me.

I grew up in CA, but moved to the Southeast after college. I’ve gotten used to hurricane season here, but it’s wild to see a hurricane/tropical storm hitting the west coast while the east has been unbothered so far this season.

I wonder if it’s the combination of climate change & El Niño making things so weird?

I’m sorry about your dad.

Amazing shiny fur.
