Since I won't be running for reelection in the fall myself, I'll be available to work on other people's campaigns. Let me know if you are hiring!

An announcement: Many of you may know that I am in a long-distance relationship. My fiancée @CJluvsMJ27 has recently made some serious progress in searching for a house where the both of us can live, so it's looking more and more likely that I will be leaving New Hampshire to go live with her soon. For this reason, I'd like to announce that I won't be running for reelection in 2026. There are 2 candidates that I know of who have expressed interest in filling my seat for me after I leave: Tom Brennan and Jason Quinno. Either of them would be strong progressives who align with my values, so I encourage any constituents to vote for either of them in the contested primary this September.

No Kings events today were good, similar turnout to previous events I've attended.
My reflection for today: it's been 30 days since we started war. It's estimated to cost $2bil/day. So, $60bil total. You can fund the NH state budget for 8 years. You can fund all NH public schools for 15 years.
Disgusting stuff, but seeing folks of a similar mindset gives me some hope.

I am continually pointing out (usually just to myself) that in order to be “pro-“ some interest you must be, at least implicitly, “anti-“ some other set of interests. Usually, this is in relation to my employer pushing their PAC’s supposedly neutral “pro-business” position which is going to be anti-worker, or the same position of my local politicians, which may also be anti-consumer. Recently, my home state decided to remove the requirement for motor vehicle inspections; apparently, at the behest of automotive mechanics tired of doing them. The purpose of the inspections wasn’t to drive those mechanics business; it was to maintain a minimum level of roadworthiness for vehicles and thereby increase public safety! So, I guess to the usual anti-worker and anti-consumer, the “pro-business” position of my local pols is now also anti-public.

Launching my podcast Feb 1.
It took longer than planned sold my home, lost my mom, custody battles, and apparently that still wasn’t enough grief for #NHpolitics.I’m not going easy on either side.

User:ForestHag has created a Wikipedia article for "New Hampshire Education Freedom Accounts" (or our "EFA" program for short); I encourage any Wikipedians who follow me (and who are free of conflicts of interest) to check the article for neutrality, comprehensiveness, and verifiability:

NH young people fighting ICE, fighting for their freedom, with few resources. They are friends of a friend of mine. Even if, like me, you don't know them personally, consider tossing in $10 to help. Many hands makes the difference.

It's frustrating to see such high turnover in the city planning office. I encourage the city to take the complaints of its exiting planners more seriously and put greater effort into their retention. It shouldn't be taking this long to get form-based zoning in place. We could have hundreds more units in place by now if our planners were allowed to simply do their jobs.

"Budgets are moral documents. For decades, the mantra in higher education has been, 'Run the university like a business!' But truly, even Dunkin’ Donuts seems to understand that, at the end of the day, you need to pay the people who actually make the coffee. You need to have enough cups on hand for when customers actually show up."

Attention #FreeSoftware advocates: Did you catch my #SOFTWAREAct in the NH Legislature last year? Well, part of the feedback that I got on it was that I was trying to do too much in one bill, so this year I have split it up into several bills, two of which are being heard before the NH House Executive Departments & Administration Committee tomorrow! (Sorry for the short notice; I got behind on emails)
Specifically, the two bills being heard tomorrow are HB366, prohibiting certain noncompete clauses and nondisclosure agreements regarding free software projects and the sharing of open source software, and HB327, prohibiting the state from requiring the public use proprietary software when visiting state websites (which is basically to provide for #LibreJS compatibility on state websites).
HB366 text: https://gencourt.state.nh.us/lsr_search/billText.aspx?id=187&type=4
HB327 text: https://gencourt.state.nh.us/lsr_search/billText.aspx?id=189&type=4
It's probably too late by now to come and testify, but you can still contact the committee members via this page: https://gencourt.state.nh.us/house/committees/committeedetails.aspx?id=3

Think those election poll numbers are legitimate?
I was contacted by a research company doing a study in NH. The company is legitimate. I've done focus groups with them before. They asked - if you were voting today, would you vote for Donald Trump? When I said no, they said I didn't qualify for the focus group.
Who do you think is paying for that poll?
