Evie Day 494
Good morning, and happy Monday to you all. Today is 22 July 2024.
And it’s going to get very interesting. Yesterday, President Biden announced that he would back out of the 2024 election. He then endorsed Kamala Harris, the Vice-President, as his replacement. I’ve already made one prediction – if Harris is the Democrat candidate for the presidency, Trump will not debate her.
The barbs against Harris are already flying, with insinuations that she is too far to the left or otherwise unfit. Keep in mind that some of the folks making these comments are so far to the right that William F. Buckley looks middle-of-the-road.
This morning I saw Joe Manchin on the news. He left the DNC a year or two ago, and now he wants back in to have a shot at the presidency. He is very wealthy and made his money in fossil fuels. I’m not a fan.
I have a learning day today, with sessions starting in another hour. I have two sessions today, one early in the afternoon, one later in the day. In the first one, I am coaching people through a security tool, and in the second, I’ll be presenting some tips and tricks for using AI in the productivity suite.
I had a good time yesterday hanging out with the guys. We’re going to be focused on the house and property when we’re not focused on work stuff this week, as we have a niece and her husband coming for a visit this weekend. There will be D&D. I have to admit, I’m not quite sure what that will mean for my Sunday afternoon session with the guys I play with – it might be a good time to divert folks to the swimming pool so I can cause a little chaos role-playing an angry red-haired dwarven cleric. Lawful grumpy is an alignment, isn’t it?
The world is changing, and I need to change, too.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
