Just another refugee from more toxic platforms. My radio handle is Potato. I'm somewhere on the autistic spectrum and write software.

For the 3rd time this morning, the cat is at the door demanding to go out. It is raining and chilly. He will be back in 20 or 30 min, demanding to be let in. Door does not open to summer, but he keeps trying. I share his desire and respect his determination.

Kentucky doesn’t call a special Senate election if a vacancy occurs within 3 months of the next election, and that cutoff falls around Aug. 3. So… that’d be the motivation.

Fixed a loose wire on my kid’s CrunchLabs BuildBox. Kid is impressed and now knows that soldering is a thing. Thanks Mark Rober!

The only statistically significant election fraud is Republican election fraud. Every accusation is a confession.
Moscow Mitch captioned “The GOP is trying to use McConnell, who is in a vegetative state, as a tool to manufacture an election fraud to try to win his seat in the Senate” subcaption “He will be officially pronounced dead on August 4th, which is one day after the Kentucky governor is unable to legally appoint a replacement or hold an election to choose a new member.”

Bullied as a kid, I knew the move: find someone weaker, redirect the bully, collaborate. Worked for the kids who did it, although they lived in fear. Fuck Graham for his choices. I hope the fear and suffering I saw in their collaborator eyes tortured him every waking moment.

Lindsay Graham just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people.

NYC is on NYISO. Datacenters are on PJM and already got curtailed. NYC’s outage was a fried transformer. Meanwhile Trumpkins at DOE quietly redirected carbon capture money, funds Congress set aside for clean energy, into propping up 45 coal plants. Right anger, wrong corruption.

Water reclamation tech exists. Legislation exists. Data centers have lobbyists. Aquifers don’t.

Zohran Mamdani has fully balanced New York City’s $12 billion deficit — an uncomfortable reminder to the political establishment that governments can, in fact, function when taxpayer money isn’t funneled toward lobbyists wealthy benefactors

O’Donnell’s “do you think he was referring to you?” wasn’t clever, it was cowardice with technique. The question was: “He was obviously referring to you. The released Epstein files already describe you raping children. What’s in the parts you’re still hiding?” and she didn’t ask it.

Apple sources their maps data from Tom Tom and OSM. Has OSM erased villages from southern Lebanon?

Yet another intentional lie or just more incompetence? Hard to tell, there’s so much of both.

People talk about a Blue Wave coming in ‘26. I hope it is instead a Progressive Tsunami. Imagine a congress and senate packed with a super majority of people like AOC. That would put Americans first. Wanna dismantle the deep state and address a rigged system? This is how.

Back from the ski trip and back into my Bionic Gym routine. Ugh, but also, I’m moderately proud of myself for doing the thing. Now if I can just figure out the Apple Activity / Fitness stuff for tracking…

Saw “Bondi Shooting” headline. Now I’m both sad for obvious reasons and… disappointed. Also for obvious reasons.

My workouts involve 2hrs of sweating in my office chair while trying to ignore the discomfort of the bionic gym. It’s a start. Back at it today after a 2 day break. Wed was a legit skip, but I shouldn’t have skipped yesterday. Oh well. Onward.

Exercised today for the first time in a long while. Well… used my BionicGym. It’s a start. Goal is every work day that I don’t have to do the mega commute. And to ramp it up to 2 hr sessions.

Backfired spectacularly?!? Good grief. If she had actually called him out to his face, that’d be amazing. She didn’t “that’s not my question”?!? Really? “I guess Mike was doing everything he could to protect Trump from the Epstein files. I don’t know why he caved and finally did his job. Ask him.”

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down. All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown. So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

Forbes, you aren’t even close to being interesting enough to get away with dehumanizing undocumented immigrants. We see you bootlicking when you choose to use the language fascists. Block em, they have nothing to offer.

Until we address the fascism problem, every other problem is a distraction. Phrased another way: resist fascism at every opportunity.

DAY 1/ Wall Street Journal: "Shooter was motivated by trans/antifa grievances." DAY 2/ WSJ finds out the shooter was not trans or antifa, but a Trump supporter who was a huge fan of Charlie Kirk's notorious rival Nick Fuentes. DAY 3/ WSJ: "We have no idea what motivated the shooter. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"

None of the stores on Salt Spring had any corned beef available. So… I bought a brisket and corned it myself. Better late than never. And next time I’ll have Prague powder.
Corned beef and cabbage in a bowl. Three large slices of brisket with fat cap, a full cabbage wedge and some carrots.
