  I'm avoiding coding. Not completely, for I have come up with some ideas for new code, but no actual bits have been altered. This is a hot day, and when the blinds are shut, the air is smoky, and the temperature is up, I'm possibly not the most focused programmer on the planet. It will be cooler in... 2 or 3 more days. We peaked at 93.4F. One small favor from all of the smoke haze. It wasn't 98F today, as was predicted in the 10-day a couple of days ago. #Gresham #Portland #PDX #Ore...

  You think 2026 is bad? Wait until 2036. 2046. 2056. It will not get cooler, other than the cyclic up-and-down of the El Nino, La Nina cycles snaking along with our overheating climate. Hotter. Hotter than this. Hotter still. Not done heating. In 10,000 years, perhaps. Hug a politician today! 🤗 #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #GlobalAtmosphericBurning #Republicans #Democrats

  I cleaned both filters in the A/C. It is on now, and won't shut off, in all likelihood, for 2 days. The curtains are drawn shut. I need to add a reflective surface. This is what our tax dollars have bought us. Searing heat, intimate body searches, demands for conformity, hatred of minorities, and endless wars over bullshit invented by our rich and callous politicians, the Epstein class who engaged in the rape of children on an industrial scale, in mansions, hosted by the men they called the...

  Perhaps the pimp demands changes in order to more conveniently shuttle girls in and out for the "modeling career" rape parties, wherever the new Epstein class mansion is. Is it the bunker under the ballroom? I think it's the bunker under the ballroom. #Trump #Epstein #bffs https://newsie.social/@servelan/117038732333877065

  My loyalty reward for not using a credit card at all is another credit card, one which I'll only need to spend $3000 using, at 19 1/2% to 28 1/2% interest, to qualify for awesomely cool bonus points, and privileges at a fairly expensive hotel chain. Yes, this is really a loyalty reward for... there's not even an annual fee. Wow. Smacked by gob am I. I should apply for it, use it as often as the other one, and drive the hotel chain mad. Like they're not already, right Paris?

  A little help, please. The original problem was that "yarn install --immutable" failed because --immutable was no longer recognized as an option. Then I mis-installed yarn under root. I've tried sudo apt install cmdtest npm install -g yarn npm install -g npm@latest npm install -g yarn@latest Because /usr/bin/yarn pointed to a root directory, and was not world executable, that was unusable for the mastodon user. I deleted /usr/bin/yarn. Then after npm install -g yarn, there...

  If you live more than 50 miles from Portland, the state of Oregon is urging voters to use drop boxes, not mail-in ballots, due to new Post Office rules (and, I add, political uncertainties). #elections #Oregon #voting #MailInBallots

  The ants here took off about a week or so ago. They seem much better at predicting future temperatures than we are. Their 10-day forecast was "Nope. Not even. Get underground, stat!"

  The nearby Weather Underground station hit 90F at about 3:30 PM PT, and stayed in the 90's for 3 hours, peaking at a bit over 92F. It's 78 in here. It's still 81 outside. Tomorrow we should get scattered thunderstorms after midnight. Sleeping is always optional. Whee. #Gresham #Portland #Oregon #weather

  It would seem less than ideal for pitchers to be draining fluid from their knees. It sounds like Shohei needs an extended rest from mound duties. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2026/07/dodgers-notes-diaz-snell-glasnow-ohtani-yamamoto.html #MLB #Dodgers

  Nearly all companies are dictatorships. When a politician implores us that we must run the country like a business, this is what the two-faced alien creature means. It means it intends to instigate a slow succession of unstoppable, not containable, not accountable, bullying, pig-headed, increasingly incoherent tyrants, their offspring, and their cronies, stealing from everyone, everywhere, all of the time. You are here. ⬆️ Question - who would broadcast mass media, and traditional mass media l...

  I watch videos from the Furball Farm cat sanctuary, where hundreds of cats spend their days. They're not caged (other than around the large building and outside area). For the most part, they get along. I've seen no big brawls. The cat most likely to be a jerk is almost always orange, and it's usually a single swat. Cats will rub against each other, play with each other, feed with each other, and sleep anywhere they feel like. They're downright inhuman! https://www.youtube.com/...

  The Giants beat the Rockies again today, 6-4. Robbie Ray got the win. Caleb Killian picked up his 8th save. His ERA is a bit high, increased by giving up a run tonight, but he seems to be adjusting to the closer role. Sean Sullivan took the loss, pounded, as he was, for a dozen hits and all 6 runs in 5 2/3 innings. Tomorrow's game, a Tyler Mahle start, is scheduled to start at 1 PM PT. #SFGiants #Rockies #MLB
