House Republicans, stumbling over demands from the right-wing Freedom Caucus, have failed to get even half of the 12 must-pass spending bills across the finish line, while the spending legislation that has passed is full of extreme provisions that Democrats in the Senate are certain to reject out of hand. Instead of working overtime, however, GOP leaders are canceling the remaining votes and sending House members away on summer recess — a week early — as the September deadline to avoid a government shutdown edges closer.

It’s so satisfying to see a chained set of code coming together.
Right now I have code going from:
Clojure ➔ Java ➔ C++ ➔ Metal

Mixed in there the C++ is sending ObjectiveC messages, but is staying in C++ land to do it (via some very cool headers from Apple, which I had to extend)

But it’s very nice to see it all work seamlessly when the only parts of the chain that are documented are in different languages that handle everything differently.

Democrats are just too accustomed to losing, even though we’ve been winning every election since Dobbs. I’m not going to say this will be a landslide. But it is absolutely moving in that direction.

Tally ho, motherfuckers! *

Honestly I never had a very high opinion of the tech industry, but the way that they’ve gone all-in on AI is like, extremely solid proof that most tech management doesn’t actually understand how computers work.

Now here's where Trump and Harris differ: he'll speak to other con artists for the chance to make money from them.

He needs their money right now. He's still facing $ 400 million dollars as a judgement.

They run about having a great time and release seeds at the same time 😍

Hey y'all, we need help with bills this month.

- We're a few hundred short on rent bc of move-in expenses.

- Comcast has shut off our internet bc they claim I owe $300 for a past account from years ago (that they never contacted me about).

- And we are still trying to replace the car that was stolen this month.

Any/all help will relieve the pressure as we prep for baby to arrive in the next 6 weeks!

Sea surface temperature departures from the 1991-2020 baseline around Alaska for the week ending July 26 from NOAA/PSL/ESRL data. Eastern Bering mostly cooler than average not as much and over smaller area than past few weeks. Late season sea ice responsible for the much below average temperature western Chukchi Sea. Gulf of Alaska waters remain close to normal. #akwx #Arctic #SST @Climatologist49 @ZLabe @Jdnome

I have heard a rumor that I can’t substantiate that the page from the hardcover version of the bad book wherein Mr Vance explained the details of his and many other men’s physical relationship with an especially curvaceous couch which was posted on this most blessed of federated websites may have been a fake. If so, I apologize for finding it entirely believable that sex weirdo Vance did something embarrassing in college. If it is true though I think it is very funny. #uspolitics #couch

The most amusing thing about this couch meme is that:

A) It’s complete bullshit, and,

B) No one is more responsible for popularizing bullshit memes and disinformation than MAGAs.

You reap what you motherfuckers sow. And it’s about time. So fuck you very much.
