What obsolete knowledge do you know by heart, and would like to share?

To tell the age of any horse Inspect the lower jaw of course; The six front teeth the tale will tell, And every doubt and fear dispel.

Two middle nippers you behold Before the colt is two weeks old; Before eight weeks two more will come Eight months: the corners cut the gum.

At two the middle "Nippers" drop: At three the second pair can't stop; When four years old the third pair goes, At five a full new set he shows.

The deep black spots will pass from view At six years from the middle two; The second pair at seven years; At eight the spot each corner clears.

From the middle "Nippers" upper jaw At nine the black spots will withdraw. The second pair at ten are bright; Eleven finds the corners light.

As time goes on the horsemen know The oval teeth three-sided grow; Then longer get - project before - Till twenty, when they know no more."

What was the worst case of dejá vu you have ever experienced?

When I was around 8 or 9, I am 60 now, my father was running behind me trying to catch me when I ran up the stairs and turned to face him, I then said the words that he was getting ready to say. He kind of vapor locked and asked me how I knew what he was going to say I told him that I had his whole conversation in my dream last night. He turned around and never asked me about it again.

Who are your trans role models?

I am not trans. When I was growing up there was a woman in my community that was trans. She was so accepting and she was a very warm and loving person. She was nice to me and she treated me like I mattered to the earth. I think of her so many times through the years. I am in my 60s now and she left a bright mark in my life. She gave me a sense of belonging on a big scale.
