Houston is enjoying significantly cooler temperatures this morning, in the 50s, with lower humidity. November-like weather should now persist for awhile across the region. The biggest question is whether the atmosphere will line up to support rain this weekend, or not.
This is part of Talarico's speech last night, and it emphasizes what I would like to see more of. I'm exhausted by the nastiest and vengeful bullshit that the Trump administration exemplifies:
"And to the Texans who didn't vote for me, I will be your senator too. I will always ... I will always serve you. I will always fight for you. This win is not about the Democratic Party or the Republican Party. It's much bigger than that," he said.
"We united Texans from all backgrounds and beliefs under one team to take off this broken, corrupt political system. First-time voters, three-time Trump voters, working people from every corner of the state who are fed up and ready for change," he added.
I'm not excited to win, because winning is important to me, I'm excited for the possibility of life getting easier and better for everyone.

Feels like the right mug this morning.
Donc cโest pas du tout un hasard ni une fatalitรฉ.
Par exemple dans lโรฉducation nationale evidemment quโil y a des racistes. Y en a mรชme plein (bon, ils sont convaincus de pas lโรชtre, souvent mdr).
La raison pour laquelle les profs traitent pas les รฉlรจves de nโฆ ou de bโฆ, des mots comme รงa, ouvertement, en public, dans le cadre de leurs fonctions, cโest que sโils le font cโest rรฉprobation totale, premiรจre occurrence avertissement, deuxiรจme cโest blรขme avec mutation voire mise ร pied.
Cโest bien une histoire de culture professionnelle.
I'm just a simple European but when you ask me what "American Greatness" should mean I would reply with
"Real American greatness is fighting for the little ones, creating equality, fairness, looking our for another"
and not:
"To rebuild a white nationalist christian America"
The latter is what the Nazi's also said

I'm 52 and don't read much. The glasses next to my bed are almost exclusively wanking glasses. I would imagine there are many many more out there.
@fesshole I'm confused- what exact purpose do they serve? Do you wear them because you enjoy the fantasy of looking like a school marm? Do you have a very intricate technique of rubbing one out and need to monitor it closely? Is it special glasses and you somehow hump them? Don't keep us hanging???
In Missouri in 2024 WE voted for MO Constitutional Amendment 3: the Right to Reproductive Freedom.
And yet it was mostly Republicans that got elected that election, too. So of course they were like "erm, maybe we'll ignore that".
So it was on the ballot again this year - repeal the amendment? Now with additional transphobia baked in, as if that would sway people to change their minds.
The vote to APPEAL the Right to Reproductive Freedom was REJECTED.
@tapbots Pressing spacebar when a video is open in itโs own window closes it in Ivory. I would expect play/pause when looking at a video.
I get the logic: spacebar is also a pageup (shift+spacebar is pagedown). However, you can close the video window with escape, so there is really no need for the spacebar to close the window.
@doekman Videos and photos are using the same media viewer and we adopted the quick-look paradigm to quickly be able to show and hide the window.
Here's my recent ASF keynote, on how we know much less about our software supply chains than we think, and on the importance of developer education:

My dad used to play"Go now" by the Moody Blues at the end of the evening, to encourage people to leave the pub. We played it as the last song at his funeral. I think he'd have liked that. I miss him.

Bit grey this morning but at least not raining. Lucky looking positively sprightly this morning. Panda likes the quiet life, and his cuddles. Dom needing his cuddles too, as he usually does. No tongue this morning though.

@RickiTarr I'm just happy that a blue Congress may be able to dial down the chaos for the next couple of years. I'd like to see them pass some popular legislation like Medicare for All and campaign finance reform and watch the President veto them, setting up the Republicans for another bloodbath in 2028.
