"Move the adjourn until tomorrow"
Passed!

Now, this is an interesting conversation/negotiation!

WTF are these two talking about?
#housevote

Chat GPT3:
In the United States House of Representatives, a representative is designated as being present if they are physically present on the House floor or if they are participating in the proceedings remotely, such as by using video conferencing. A representative who leaves the room but remains in the Capitol can still be considered present, as long as they are able to participate in the proceedings and vote if necessary.
(The denominator does not get reduced during this vote if they leave)

From GPT3:
The United States House of Representatives can adjourn after starting their voting for the Speaker of the House if they have not arrived at a winner.
The Speaker of the House is elected at the beginning of each new Congress, which occurs every two years.
The House can adjourn the voting for the Speaker at any time, either temporarily or permanently, by a majority vote.
The voting for the Speaker can be resumed at a later time if the House decides to do so.

I think I'd rather just wait for the white smoke to rise up from the Capitol.

I just can't fathom seeing a Speaker Jim Jordan.

I thought of you when watching this video. I have a 3D printer from this vendor. This is heavily modified to do the beadwork: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_S2NkB3_RQ

I'm soooo going to miss Judy Woodruff when she signs off the PBS Newshour this Friday.

But, she will be busy on her new project: https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2022/12/29/judy-woodruff-pbs-newshour/

Pele has died.

Enjoy the setting crescent moon tonight.

Merry Christmas everyone!
Should I feel guilty because it's 77 F in Thousand Oaks, CA? Visiting family has many benefits. 😉

From Ian Bremmer's emailed newsletter:

I just learned from a friend (a Belarussian refugee) that a friend of his that is visiting from Belarus was asked to report to the recruiting station to "verify some personal data".

This is happening just after Putin was visiting Minsk.

This is also similar to how the Russian conscription process started.

"This will be very bad for Belarus."

Merry Christmas and a Happy, Victorious New Year!

I've never seen an all-chinese article on NPR before.

Quite an earthquake storm in northern California this morning.
