Another episode in brilliance...

...from those great examples of how to live your life; influences of course.  Apparently, along with the general aging of the population, there is now a shortage of laxatives because, apparently, a number of influencers (defined as "people who look good in spandex but don't know from Shinola") are endorsing laxatives as a great way to lose weight and, perhaps, look good in spandex yourself.

So more or less, people are fighting "bloat" by not drinking water, and then fighting constipation by using laxatives, and we wonder why so many "influencers" and people influenced by them are so sick.  It would be a blessed thing if Wilford Brimley ("Quaker Oats; it's the right thing to do") somehow got a following.  He probably didn't look good in spandex, but unlike a lot of influencers, he lived to age 85.
