Gratitude Monday: operations

Okay, House Republicans finally hawked up a Continuing Resolution bill late Saturday that the Senate approved. That means that the United States government will be funded for the next 44 days.

Yay.

And I’m grateful for that, although it means 44 days of more performative theatre instead of actual legislating.

Those rat bastards did not include aid to Ukraine, but they did manage to include a pay raise for themselves. Since they’re already grotesquely overpaid for the value they give, I am incensed about that.

I’ll just focus on people who actually do their jobs getting paid, I guess. Odd that I need to think about that in what’s meant to be the global pinnacle of democracy and governance.
