Packing up the house and the purging process is going well. My wife is becoming an expert on selling online, and we've cleared out 6 pieces of furniture and all my major workshop tools. We are currently cleaning out every closet and cupboard in preparation for a yard sale this weekend, and my garage looks like a flea market. Everything is priced aggressively to avoid packing it for the move or throwing it out. Next week we'll donate items that don't sell.

#Small #gradual #exposures to #gerrymandering, #reducing #polling hours and booths, #purging #voterRoles, #raising #votingAge, #curbing #mail votes, #eliminating #female #suffrage, #restricting #votingRights to #landowners, and many such #measures can help our country build tolerance to rising #disenfranchisement, #reactionaries say

honestly think that we should start #purging people

Discovered a purge script a predecessor wrote wasn't actually cleaning up directories, just files, so there were huge forests of empty directories just hanging around taking up inodes.

Felt *sooo* good to clean them up.

And it was fun to use pathlib.Path.walk(), which is new in Python 3.12.
