I thoroughly enjoyed our performance yesterday. After the No Kings demonstration, between the dress rehearsal and the concert, and well before the rain hit, Millennium Park looked pretty nice:

After the concert, I did not enjoy the rainstorm that greeted us when we walked over to the place where we had our post-concert drinks and snacks. I got home well after midnight, which fortunately Cassie didn't mind because she was at sleepaway camp. 

Cassie, now home, seems to be recovering from the trauma pretty well:

I also finished Cory Doctorow's Enshittification a few minutes ago. At the very end he pointed to an essay by Cat Valente, "Stop Talking to Each Other and Buy Things," which I now recommend to you.

I will now debug some unit tests and watch vaguely-interesting videos because my body battery has dropped to 7.
