The middle sentence my initial thought was was “your school” was directed at like maybe one specific school but you’re doing 50 fucking schools all at once and without months/years of community meetings about each parking space, and platform all the crazies?? @mayorofseattle.bsky.social let’s go.

NEW TRAIN!!! @amtrakcascades.wsdot.wa.gov

They’re here — and they’re awesome, the new @amtrakcascades.wsdot.wa.gov Airos!!

Train is home! @amtrakcascades.wsdot.wa.gov

Can confirm the new @amtrakcascades.wsdot.wa.gov trainset has made it to Edmonds!

NERDS! (complimentary)

One-hundred days into his tenure leading Washington’s largest public school district, Superintendent Ben Shuldiner says school closures may be worth another look.

Looks like the teacher's union (SEA) is pushing back about Anitra Jones' appointment as principal to Adams Elementary. SPICY! www.washingtonea.org/file_viewer....

Tonight is the May 13, 2026 Regular Seattle School Board meeting. SEA has stacked the testimony list. Otherwise, it looks like a lighter Agenda. Here's the link. See you here at 4:30pm-ish. www.seattleschools.org/board-meetin...

Ben Shuldiner pledged to make Seattle the nation's best urban school district. Here's where he stands on key promises, 100 days in as the new superintendent.

WOOO!!!

I want every Democratic leader in the country to study this list of actions allegedly taken by TN Dems to resist MAGA's assault on Democracy... and start following the TN example.

Why is Futurewise always talking about stacked flats? A 🧵 (1/5)

Judicial races are critically important but too often ignored. Thankful for this coverage by @washingtonstatestandard.com Get informed! #waelex

YES! I think this every time someone notes how much a good electric cargo bike costs as a criticism. For us, it was that or a second car. I think I saved (save) a lot of money comparatively!

Okay Version 1 (AKA The One Line) is complete! CHOO-CHOO!

Seattle could do this.

Bike Butler lets cyclists customize routes that works best for them – from a weekend family ride in protected lanes to a quick dash to work next to traffic.

Glad the Times reported on this, because I think us amateurs didn't want to go near it. SEA is already agitating about cuts, and the new SEA leadership seems of an activist bent. Shuldiner has some high aims requiring changes for teachers. If there's not a strike this year I will be surprised.

Join us, Saturday May 23rd, for a Celebratory First Roll and Stroll with special guests @mayorofseattle.bsky.social, @tammymorales.bsky.social, and @nondriver.bsky.social at the Mount Baker Beach House on Lake Washington Boulevard! We can't wait to see you on the boulevard!

I turned 16 in 1997. I think of Song of a Generation as being more, the song that got all you and your friends going while packed like sardines in your (newly licensed) friend's (parents' old) car. The song of that year for me was totally "Semi-Charmed Life" - Third Eye Blind.

My Mother’s Day: Kid A (12) has been sick for 10 days and still has an awful cough. Took him to Children’s, turns out he has pneumonia.

Aww, sad my auntie isn’t alive anymore to go see this. She was a flight attendant for Alaska in the early 70s (go-go boot era!) and lost her job when they found out she got married. You weren’t allowed to be married!

Next time you hear that wealthy individual or large corporation complain about WA adopting an income tax like 42 other states have done, ask them if they think kids should be able to go to outdoor camp even if their parents can't afford it.

This is science under fascism. Our institutions should be fighting for us, and with us. But instead, they are collaborators.

WHO LOVES A SURVEY?!?!?!

She's also wrong on the facts. America didn't "choose developers over people," we made it illegal to build housing in the places people want to live.

I am so frustrated, angry and saddened that another teen has been shot in South Seattle. We are failing as a City government and as a community, and our youth are paying the price. This cannot stand. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

JENNE!!! YAASSSSSSSSS!

Happy 100th to a real one.

"One of the greatest cures for despair and depression is to do something, and to do something with the people who care." - Rebecca Solnit This can't be said enough times.

WE CAN BE A REAL CITY

Bumping this in case you know anyone who can speak to the science in "The Body Keeps The Score" or works with patients who've experienced trauma. Thanks!

SCL doesn’t ask the public if we want safe transmission lines. SPU doesn’t ask the public if we want safe watermains. Boeing Field doesn’t ask the public if we want a safe runway. WSDOT doesn’t ask the public if we want safe bridges. Why does SDOT put safe streets up for debate?

This is a helpful write-up. It’s laid out very clearly. It’s been hard to find specific information.

Cuuuuute! Too bad it’s a temporary tattoo instead of a sticker. Now I gotta save it for a good occasion.

50%?!?! *Falls out of chair*

This lady’s jumpsuit is AMAZING and I want one.

I looked for it so you didnt have to. youtu.be/M5Hy3BF3d4Y?...

Today's Bike to School Day lesson: Peripheral vision #SEAbikes #Seattle

We also offer $1,500 Mini Grants for parents, PTAs, and other organizations to help encourage safe walking and biking to school. bsky.app/profile/seat...

Seattle’s Safe Routes to School program builds walking and biking infrastructure around schools and supports programming that encourages more students to walk and bike. www.seattle.gov/transportati...

It's Bike & Walk To School Day! In 2025, about 30% of Seattle Public School students walked, biked, or rolled to school. That's 12% higher than when we began our annual travel tally in 2005.

Seattle School Board meeting tonight (May 6, 2026) at 4:30pm. Topics are THE BUDGET (ominous music) and Community Engagement. Here's the Agenda, which has some rather interesting materials attached: www.seattleschools.org/board-meetin...

Reading this gave me goosebumps. I feel immensely grateful for all our teachers out there trying to help young people contextualize our world and this moment in our country. And to the kids daring to imagine something different.

May 30 and June 6, show up and show the city car-free spaces are in high demand!

Speaking of which, can we please put in unmountable curbs at our schools.
