Clojure has no class inheritance — but you can fake it cleanly. Paula shows how empty marker protocols acting as Java interfaces let you extend behavior to multiple types at once without duplicating implementations.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.
46F? That's T shirt and shorts weather!
Disclaimer: I lived in the SF Bay Area for 25 years, but now live in Ohio (summer is hot'n'humid but the rest of the year is glorious!)..
I have a new essay coming out next week so stay tuned! since one of the ppl I critique in it is a hardcore "gamete truther", I figured I'd re-up this – discusses both the actual biology & the bonkers anti-trans talking point that's grown out of it (no paywall): juliaserano.medium.com/why-are-gend...
Over the decades, we have had two Honda Civics. You could have almost fit two of the old Civic into the new Civic.
You can also see it very clearly with the '50s Mini and the modern Mini. Or as we call 'em: the "not-so-Mini" :)
I gave an introductory talk to SF.gov about MCP: what it is, why you should care about it, and how best to implement it. If you're new to MCP or are looking for a quick intro to share, you might also find it useful, so I recorded it:

Fascists! 😠
UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.
Great to see the NY Roller Derby team won their case!
Looks like you'll almost be driving past my house between Parma and Shepardstown! The leaves are turning -- it'll be a nice drive!
Congrats!!
Every news broadcast should run the facts split-screen in real time while Trump spews his lies.
Nice work, @msnbc.com — every network had time to prepare because they knew what was coming.
Noooo! The last thing in the world I use my phone for is making (or receiving) phone calls! :) I want everything in writing, partly because I can never remember what was said on a call, but mostly because I want _proof_ that something was said/agreed!
Note to Kristi Noem:
It is far better to be mocked in a cartoon for how you look than to be shoved into the back of a U-Haul and kidnapped for how you look.
Newsflash, Wannabe Dictator:
I don’t care how many times you shake the Etch A Sketch trying to redraw these lines. I’m not disappearing.
I’ll be back, still on your behind every step of the way. (1/2)
We should have the House right now. Let me say it again: we should have the House.
This ain’t just a Texas problem, it’s a national problem. They’re stealing seats to keep power, and that’s how we ended up with Speaker Johnson instead of Speaker Jeffries.
They can’t win fair, so they cheat.
1. State AGs have sued Trump for intimidating providers from providing trans care.
Meanwhile, institutions are dropping trans people left and right out of fear of Trump.
Suing Trump isn't enough. State AGs MUST enforce equality laws against cowardly orgs.

Aw, shit, sorry man :(
Liked & reposted. Did I miss the post about the new m/c you bought to replace this?
Hey, my #Phoenix area people... know anybody that's in the market for a great used #motorcycle?
If y'all can help spread the word, I'd appreciate it.
Start every day with this reality:
EVERY HOUSE SEAT and 33 Senate seats are up for election in 2026. THAT must be the focus. Let’s get disciplined.

YouGov has relentlessly kept "HBO Max" as the name in all of its TV-related surveys over the past two years as well!
it might not be the commencement speech you expected. but maybe it’s the commencement speech you needed. 🎓
I just came here to say "OMG! That hair is AMAZING!" and saw most of the comments are about how great her hair is! :)
Since my "commute" is to turn right out of my bedroom into my office, that bedroom/office pair can be anywhere -- and just moved from the SF Bay Area to the Youngstown area in Ohio :)
I just moved to the Youngstown area from the San Francisco Bay Area, California, so I can afford to retire "soon". Bought a similar home to what I have in CA for 1/5 of the price. Cost of living savings is a big attraction.
Happy to be a muppet! :)
