Closest race for House of Delegates in Virginia is HD30 — @johnmcauliff.bsky.social is going to flip this seat, with a lot of help from his friends. His former teacher, Sen Tim Kaine joined the canvass launch this afternoon in Purcellville. It's a great place to knock doors on a weekday evening!

Hottest day of this heatdome: 95F will feel like 105F.
I have done what I can to reduce our home's energy use, while improving comfort. Nice to have the data👇

A lot of enthusiasm for early voting in VA CD-11 firehouse Dem primary. Snaking lines inside (thank goodness) the Fairfax County Government Center waiting to get a ballot at 6pm. (Polls open 3pm-8pm today). Election day is Saturday.

Wash complete, drying in progress. All-in-one laundry is a game changer on multiple levels.
✅ One machine means dirty clothes in, clean & dry out
✅ Heat pump drying, with no vents
✅ 120v plug (frees up 240v for other electrification - could have saved me a sub-panel cost)

Tested out the adapter that allows me to charge my Kia at a Tesla Supercharger. I had the Tesla app loaded and funds connected and it all worked well, delivering at an acceptable rate.
