"...They didn't quite succeed."
Hot and sunny today. Our high was (so far) 94F, with a heat index of 102F. Much hotter weather is on the way.
I only slept three hours last night, so not a very productive day. I managed to work on MP2 a decent amount, but I was running on half a brain, which just does not cut it.
Back on the 22nd, when I talked about Biden's being replaced as the Democratic candidate by Harris, I said that was very much hoping to be proved wrong. And today I admit that I am vety impressed at the enthusiasm that has been thrown behind her, the fundraising, her support from voters, and Harris' willingness to lay into Trump in a way that Biden never really did. She is not pulling punches. She's looking good in polls. All in all, she's impressive. If I am to be honest, there are still aspects of her politics with which I am uncomfortable, and that isn't going to change. But if it's Harris or the Horror Clown, that's not even a decision I have to think about. At this point, I am another "childless cat lady" putting their support behind Kamala Harris for President. Hopefully, this is not one of those time hope will steer us to disaster. It's good to be wrong, sometimes.
In fact, most times.
Count me as a "white dude for Harris."
We still have plumbers and whatnot trying to patch the hole in the ceiling. You'd think it was a far bigger problem than it was. One suspects fuckery and laziness.
Please visit the Dreaming Squid Sundries shop. Buy something. Help keep the wolves as bay. Thank you.
The last day of July 2024...
