The Ball Is Rolling Up in 2027! The Gunner Channel returns -- A Starstruck Odyssey season 2 coming soon! 🚀🪐💫 #dimension20

People don’t understand why I keep noting that BlueSky is not a bubble, it is a counterpublic. It serves its own organizational function: you can see in realtime in January 2025, on multiple types of social media, shouting that an executive order is instruction to an agency. This one stuck.

Congrats to Brazil for keeping Lula. And a Big Celebration for Serbia who got rid of a nationalist leader who's been there since 2014

Cool site

I'm rooting for St Louis, but they are getting massively outplayed by Columbus. #openCup

Check out the Amazing work that Erica is doing - this is an important thread for Seattle residents to read. This policy is trash and will not end well for anyone. Keep this in mind as you fill our your ballots. Also support publicola if you can!

“The internet is a store but it used to be a library” hits me like a slug to the chest

More explicitly a relative of Rep. Pollet, Eileen, who owns a consulting firm that a lot of Dems have used, bought leftycheatsheet dot com and is redirecting it to the FUSE guide as an attempt to confuse people trying to find leftycheatsheet.org

For anyone who likes LitRPGs but isn't into the lone-wolf man who punches his emotions down into the bottomless void trope, Give Apocalypse Parenting a try! The series shows time and time again how we are stronger together and that community is the foundation of civilization.

Holy Shit!! Just heard a bunch of gunshots in central district in Seattle.

All WA state candidates are required to disclose assets + income sources. We use this to figure out if the candidate might be a landlord, and how many properties they own. Being/not being a landlord isn't the whole story, but having this info at a glance is unique to our leftycheatsheet.org tool.

As usual, the city council is talking about how fire and police are "chartered responsibilities." I will once again point out that the first-listed charter responsibility is actually health, followed by general safety and the overall wellbeing of Seattleites.

Found some amazing amanitas while out mushroom hunting a few days ago here in Seattle

that’s right

This is amazing Need to do a Seattle version of this when we have a DSA slate running in '28

In 2016, Leuven made a bold decision: instead of trying to accommodate ever-increasing car traffic, it would change the rules of the road entirely. A decade later, the Dutch-inspired traffic circulation plan has drastically improved the city’s accessibility, liveability and quality of public space.🧵

It's Sassy Squirrel Season again!

I'm striking out on an adventure because Kevin said I wouldn't. Screw you, Kevin!! 😡 You don't know me!!

Besides intense water use, ~1000-3500 gallons of the most toxic EPA Tier-1 pesticides are applied on Jackson Park each year. This kills urban insects, pollinators, and aquatic bugs; contributes to bird population declines; and injects toxic runoff into our creeks. jp4all.org/learn-more/e...

Found a fun political ideology quiz from a person I follow on here - lot's of fun to see where you end up

I've been posting all day (except when on the radio or calls) about a public safety budget meeting at the Seattle City Council that was truly an all-timer on the batshit scale. I'll have a longer post after I breathe into this bag for a while. Meanwhile, please support my work covering City Hall!

might've figured it out

The parade of interesting sunrises continues on the Seattle water front.

We live in an incredible place. I am proud that our city was recently named one of the top five in the world by Oxford Economics using the five criteria of Economics, Human Capital, Quality of Life, Environment, and Governance.

⚡️JUST NOW: MASS UN WALKOUT ON NETANYAHU

So funny and sadly accurate

Charlie’s Queer Books is expanding to Capitol Hill with a new shop and cafe on E Pike

Yay! The Sounders winless streak has ended!!!

Yesterday, Seattle police released footage of a woman they shot in Beacon Hill. Officers barely attempted to negotiate with her or even establish that she could understand what they were saying before they approached her door.

Happy mushroom season!

Everyone in Seattle deserves a safe place to call home. Today, I am announcing bold action to expand shelter and support for people experiencing homelessness.

Anchorage Police Dept lowest use-of-force year on record: still 3x Portland's rate. Still 2.5x Seattle's. In a city with lower crime than both. Alaska Native people are 7% of Anchorage's population. They're 45% of everyone APD put hands on. The audit dropped. Read it. www.adn.com/alaska-news/...

The Other Girls is a spectacular stoner comedy - very good. top of the genre

Was walking past this building and through the window saw this backrooms-ass room, so I accidentally took the coolest picture ever due to the window's reflection

This is why Dolly Parton will be remembered and loved ❤️📚

OMG are the Sounders required to have at least one injury per game? What have they done? Who cursed them? Was this Portland somehow?

I know everything feels terrible and doomy but I've been working on surveillance issues for most of my adult life and I have never seen so much energy, momentum, and concrete VICTORIES happening as what we are seeing right now on Flock cameras and facial recognition in venues. Keep. Going.
