Felt good to pitch in today!

Heck, go big enough on the fraud, and you get a seat on air force one.

BEHN: β€œFeed kids. Fix roads. And fund hospitals. Instead of handing out corporate tax breaks.”

TN-07 Democratic nominee @aftynbehn.bsky.social puts her people-first priorities front and center in a high-energy victory speech

Please order the State Police to establish trust with the protestors. Trust and cooperation are crucial so that any false flag agitators that the regime sends in to masquerade as bogeymanβ€œAntifa” will be spotted and stopped before they can create camera-ready violence.

The President of the United States is lying and/or delusional, and it seems like we should be talking about this and nothing else.

Nashvillians, if you're in U.S. House District 7, your single best next move to hold the line against Fascism is to vote for Aftyn Behn in the primary election on Tue, Oct 7.

Sample ballot:

YouTube video by MSNBC β€˜F--- them kids’: ICE agents drag children out of bed, ransack Chicago building

According to eyewitnesses, armed ICE agents dragged kids out of their beds in the middle of the night, zip tied them and put them in rented vans while raiding an * entire apartment building* on the South Side of Chicago.

We just early voted for @aftynbehn.bsky.social in the primary. If you’re in Tennessee’s 7th congressional district *please* get out there and vote. This seat is going to flip blue next fall, and now is your chance to pick the candidate you believe will fight like hell once in DC.

How To Buy A Congressional Election TN-7's special congressional election is an exposΓ© on how money flows through politics in Tennessee. We can't send people to Washington who profit from the corrupt system we desperately need to unrig.

If you live in TN's Congressional District 7 and are pissed about your taxes funding the shiny new Titan's stadium (aka the biggest public dollar giveaway to the NFL ever), you need to read this. Then go vote for @aftynbehn.bsky.social, the candidate who wants to get dark money out of politics. 🦞

If you were moved (or shaken) by Jon Stewart’s interview with @mariaressa.bsky.social on the Daily Show please read her powerful book β€œHow to Stand Up to a Dictator”.

If you prefer audio books, I suggest you switch to Libro.fm and avoid

Wrapped up my conference season for this year with #goatmire Elixir. Had too much fun telling a story one last time, and had even more fun watching some of the most unusual and memorable talks I've ever seen.

Yes, 100%.

Each time I give GenAI a real shot (provide grounding and a clear prompt) I get clobbered by a hallucination lurking in a subtle spot. Finding the β€œlie” takes longer than if I had done the work by hand, and there is no joy in that work.

Who wants to work closely with a liar all day?

Generative AI is like β€œbring your crackhead neighbor to work” day. Hmm… he seems lucid today, yeah that looks right, ah that’s just how I would have done that, wait… where’s my wallet?

As Carl Schmitt explained in his fascist handbook, a crisis must be created where none exists in order to collapse democratic institutions and hasten the transition towards totalitarian dictatorship

You also asked about side effects. Example would be commands to send data to a queue, send a message to another system, and so on.
Anything beyond updating the state of the actor would be a side effect command. These side effect commands are held and executed after the handlers are done executing.
