Serious question - what does it -matter- if what Trump, Musk, et. al. are doing is "Illegal", "unconstitutional", if they're doing it anyway, and the mechanisms for stopping, let alone accountability, are just... not?

Far too often reminded of this passage from Carl Sagan.

Palette cleanser follow-up. Our foster, Casper, lays it on thick when I have to leave after spoiling him with love, scratches, and pets. He looks at me like this when I have to leave his room

The commentary that follows thinking such as "That's illegal!", "There's unconstitutional!", "They must give notice!" are ignoring the entirety of Trump Administration modus operandi. Thinking that any of those things matter to this Administration or their supporters is unfortunately wrong.

"...we must live the changes we want to see in the world." (someone smart) Getting involved in building something, can be immensely beneficial in surprising ways. If able, what better way to fight the destruction and dismantling around us, other than actively building? (long thread)

Have a cat photo, cos, everything else basically sucks right now. (we're fostering this feral dude, currently named Casper. He has a long way to go, but, already making massive progress adjusting to humans and indoor life. We may keep him if he gets along with the rest of our menagerie)

Throwing low notes around for these cool folks (Designer Disguise) in just over a week. Check out the lyric vid and give them a like/whatever over on Facebook (facebook.com/designerdisguise), please! www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDev... Show is on the 18th @ Madam Lou's #metal #hardrock #hook #seattle

Doing some low low tuning for a fill-in show coming up on the 18th! Going to be down at F standard, on my Dingwall Afterburner I 6 string. Really excited for this show.

#AdventOfCode Day 5, parts 1 and 2 Part 1 was a breeze. I had the correct answer from a clean solution pretty quickly. Part 2, I decided to lean into a large reason I'm doing this - to _learn_ things. There was a fairly straight forward answer available to me, but I choose... differently.

#AdventOfCode Day 4. Today was more string and pattern matching in a 2d matrix. Overall not bad. I completed part 1 pretty quickly. Part 2 I had a solution done over lunch, but wasn't getting the correct result on.

#AdventOfCode Holy crap today challenged me. Part 1 was fairly straight forward. Among a sea of shit, find certain things, pluck them out, then Do A Math and bubble up the result.
