The outpouring of support and excitement for Harris has been incredible. Soon the honeymoon will be over and it's going to get rough. So let's be ready for that.

But importantly I think the last week was an excellent lesson in narrative setting. For the first time in a long time, we set the stories, and the GOP was left playing defense.

We have always had that power. And the power resides in liberal citizens, not the Democratic party or the MSM. For once we stopped outrage posting about whatever narrative the GOP chose for the week, and set our own story.

Push back on misinformation where it matters. But it's also important to ignore the outrage farming and stop elevating the nonsense they throw out to distract us and keep us off balance.

As of 5pm last night, it was indeed a massive heat related disaster on the I-15 and I-40. San Bernardino County Fire Update:

"We are actively addressing the needs of motorists stuck without water and experiencing other issues. We strongly recommend that all individuals attempting to travel northbound divert and seek alternate routes...

Numerous calls for service have been received by our dispatch center from both Interstate 40 and the 15 Freeway. These include individuals exhibiting medical conditions and heat-related emergencies. In response, County Fire has brought additional ambulances and paramedic fire apparatus to the area to address these calls."

5 PM Update: Baker Incident
⚠️Northbound Closure: Northbound 15 continues to be closed with a hard closure at Afton Canyon. This is expected to be extended due to ongoing operations.
⚠️Southbound Status: The southbound 15 is currently open; however, there are periodic short closures to bring in heavy equipment and additional apparatus. CHP is coordinating these intermittent closures while emergency equipment is escorted on the opposing southbound lanes.
The San Bernardino County Fire Logistics Division has brought supplies to the Clyde V Kane Rest Stop off the northbound 15, south of Afton Canyon Road. Water has been provided at this location for motorists who are stuck without water and experiencing other issues due to heat and vehicle mechanical problems.
We are actively addressing the needs of motorists stuck without water and experiencing other issues.

Es sei wichtig, dass die EU über das sogenannte Gesetz über digitale Dienste «die Daumenschrauben» gegenüber der Plattform anziehe, sagte Esken dem «Handelsblatt». «Ebenso notwendig wäre es, dass Bundesregierung und Europäische Union sich endlich alternativen Plattformen für ihre Kurznachrichten-Kommunikation suchen und X nicht weiter füttern.»

But it will be a long slog. The amendment process is slow and difficult by design. That's not a reason to give up. It's a reason to start immediately.

The proposed amendment also bars presidential self-pardon. A much-needed step. I wish it went one step further and barred corrupt pardons, that is, pardons of the president's accomplices and co-conspirators.

Olympic opening ceremony prompts Elon Musk to opine, "Christianity has become toothless."

“Why, Elon! I didn’t know you cared!” ~ Jesus

Elon Musk joined a number of right-wing pundits including Harrison Butker to vent their fury at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony.

The ceremony featured a number of drag-style performances, but the final scene of a drag-themed runway performance that drew striking resemblance to the Leonardo Di Vinci’s painting The Last Supper, is what really had MAGA world in a fit. The painting is known for its portrayal of Christ and his apostles as Jesus reveals one of them will betray him.

The number of transgender and drag queens in the performance offended many online, with Elon Musk posting on X that the performance “was extremely disrespectful to Christians.” Musk is a self-described “cultural Christian.”

I like mastodon for text and the occasional picture but I think for images and (short) videos pixelfed is a better match.

I want to make posts about what I do as a musician, about recordings and gigs. So the instance has to be OK with this kind of self promotion.

The verb "read" in some languages. Verbs have heaps of different forms of course, I have used the most common dictionary form. For English that's the infinitive, for Greek the 1. person singular, some are verbal nouns, etc.

This is where I get out of my depth. Wiktionary says the purple ones go back to PIE *leg- and the brown ones to PIE *les-. Were these two related? Surely they must have been? But I'm not sure. Any real linguists who can help put?
