Truly evil shit, kicking people while they're down once again enshrined in city policy, look out for karma you ghouls

Vi Hilbert grew up speaking Lushootseed at a time when many Indigenous children were punished for speaking their native languages. She went on to teach at UW for 15 years, becoming a champion of keeping Native languages alive. This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we honor her legacy.

Correct, it's in Lower Queen Anne 🙂

what a box! and got the foil anime Jace, my chase rare 🔥

neat building in Seattle that's incorporating an old Boeing fuselage

We just visited Seestadt last week - this would be dreamy!

Seriously, what would it take to redevelop the golf course? It's prime real estate between two light rail stations in a very expensive city with a housing crisis. Is eminent domain even conceivable? Can the city buy the golf course otherwise?

get in, losers, we’re reintroducing the concept of consequences

People like this frankly don't deserve to live in polite society

Look, I love Seattle and think it's an easy contender to be a top 3 city in the United States, but in the *world*? Any random European capital has ten times as much walkable urbanist goodness, let's not get ahead ourselves lol

i guess my take on the whole "should we throw trans people under the bus y/n" thing is that in this sort of environment, where the opposition party shot itself repeatedly in the dick and balls by starting an illegal war that made gas cost a million dollars, it shouldn't even be on the table

trans people are also just flatly correct to rage at Dems for wavering on trans rights because immigration advocates did not do so when Dems started wavering on immigration under Obama and that led us to Biden adopting Trump I immigration policy almost wholesale

After a very long debate, this amendment was just APPROVED. The vote was 3-2, with CMs Rinck, Foster and Lin in favor and Saka and Kettle against. There are some outstanding concerns around the amendment's exact language, so I would expect additional tweaks when the bill comes to full council.

just learned this today

Debora Juarez talking pretty big for someone who wasn't elected and has the lowest approval rating on city council

Thanks for asking, KUOW! Yes, we are winning for renters: from banning pet rent and other rental junk fees, to adding density throughout our City, to SEPA reform, to my Executive Order streamlined permitting, our renter majority city is seeing real improvements to affordability…

Gun violence in Seattle isn't a new problem, and my neighborhood has been hit especially hard by it. Weirdly, none of these companies had anything to say about it before we had a socialist mayor. I wonder what changed?

Yeah this a betrayal of values, simple as. He'll be better in the seat than Paxton but that's it.

My impression is this is pretty typical, and its another thing that persuades me that... to be honest... The Cosmopolitan Way Of Life is simply superior. The people throwing the authoritarian temper tantrum are simply those ignorant of its benefits.

It’s time to let Israel First Democrats go. They want unequivocal support for their ethnonationalist project and we cannot and must not humor them.

my low poly cat isn't real, he can't hurt you

It's from 1994 but my dad made sure we were hooked up with the classics.

If Wilson had this kind of history the Seattle Times would be shouting this from the heavens. Kang shares ideology with the opinion board though so they don't care.

Whether a doomed recall effort or a delayed press conference, mainstream news outlets like KOMO and KIRO keep giving oxygen to dead stories in an effort to smear Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson. Don’t fall for the spin. Op-ed by Maggie Block: www.theurbanist.org/op-ed-seattl...

It’s very unlikely the majority comes down to one seat this year, we really do not need people like this in the Democratic Party

the thing is that next congress MGP won’t be anywhere close to the deciding vote so there is no downside to stripping all of her committee assignments and making an example of her even if you think you need a blue dog for her seat you can find a better one, there are limits
