Environmental sociologist. Tennis, bicycles, and Berners. Reads way too much - or not enough - George Orwell, Jeff VanderMeer, Arundhati Roy, Haruki Murakami, Olga Tokarczuk, Ursula Le Guin, and William Gibson. There's gotta be a pattern there, somewhere.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Lorenzo Musetti got past Sebastian Korda 6-0, 5-7, 7-5 after saving a match point to stay alive for Turin

Novak Djokovic easily got past Yannick Hanfmann 6-3, 6-4 to move into a 144th ATP Final.

If Musetti wins the final, he advances to Turin

If Djokovic wins the final, FAA advances to Turin.

If #Mamdani wins in New York, especially if he wins BIG, it would be the most powerful indication we’ve seen that big money, big media & big politics CAN be beat in today’s USA. That might be the most hopeful & inspiring thing to come out of a depressed & broken United States this year. #VOTEMamdani

"Free power"
Absolutely amazing: they've got so much solar in Australia that they need more people to use more of it, so the gov't has instructed energy retailers to offer *at least three hours of free power* during the middle of the day.

Meanwhile fossil-addled US struggles with an energy-price crisis ...
Energy retailers to be directed to offer free power three hours a day
Saying there is enough solar power for everyone in the daytime, Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen will direct retailers to provide three hours of free power every day to consumers.

My best halloween memory.
Moving into a dodgy apartment 43 years ago with Brit Griffin.
I was a 19. She was 22.
I was sick as a dog and crashed.
Late in the night 3 guys tried to break into the apartment. She put the run on them. She didn't even wake me up.
She was bad-assed then. She still is.

Fernandez versus Mboko in Hong Kong to go to the final.
Huge fan of the young Mboko, but my heart is with Leylah Fernandez
