“I’m a Grok guy” is the single most embarrassing phrase ever uttered in the course of human history.

Another revelation from all of these emails is that many of the richest and most powerful people in the country absolutely cannot write. Helps explain their sweaty embrace of LLMs.

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it. He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted. Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

So tired of this corruption. Hope to see some house cleaning.

The record pretty conclusively proves that Congress loves a shutdown until the exact moment that a shutdown interferes with their ability to reliably catch a flight.

Unacceptable. There are 189,000 people in my district who will be paying 50–300% more for the same, and in many cases worse, healthcare. I won’t do that to the people I represent. I’m a NO on this “deal.”

I was lucky to live through the cheap vinyl era of the late 90s and early 00s.

This is, unsurprisingly, nonsensical. Is he suggesting eliminating health insurance and giving people a few thousand dollars instead? And then when they get a cancer diagnosis they just go bankrupt? He is so unserious. That's why we are shut down and Americans know it.

Just picked up my first custom bicycle. Yes, I’m in love.

If anyone on bsky would like to work on fixing this, some folks are going to meet Saturday at 10am at Cafe Weekend to talk and then put up posters. If you can't make it but want to be involved lmk

WILL MAYOR HARRELL ADDRESS KATIE WILSON BY HER NAME TONIGHT WILL HE SAY HER NAME

It’s called the Great Dark because it’s Great.

Can I add "experts are surprised about the fact that Seattleites are concerned about traffic violence after the deadliest year on city roads since 2006" to the list of prime examples of motonormativity?

We need to separate facts from fiction when it comes to what is — and isn't — an electric bicycle.

My new punk band “Point Blank Sammy”

climate arson looks like:

Yes

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

The attacks during this campaign have been far more personal and negative (and misleading) than we were expecting. The good news? Seattle voters don’t seem to be buying it. The more the mayor attacks me, the more voters look at him skeptically.

Leavitt: "At this moment in time, of course, the ballroom is really the president's main priority."

Customers at my e-bike shop are now paying $200 - $1000 more per bike than they were in March 2025. AND my margins went down. These are illegal taxes on the American people and should be struck down. And this ballroom buffoon knows it.

The optics of Trump building a ballroom that 99.9% of Americans will never set foot in while millions line up for food banks are worth more than any policy paper or economic proposal. This image is a visceral punch in the mouth that needs no words. It should haunt the GOP for a generation.

why i push for car-free and car-light living, ecodistricts, sustainable mobility, and social housing the automobile is a one way ticket to climate arson and economic devastation

Oh you're trying to say the cost of living is skyrocketing? Donald Trump can't hear you over the sound of bulldozers demolishing a wing of the White House to build a new grand ballroom.

the truth is that this isn't a theocracy and jesus isn't my fucking king

42% of the money contributed to Bruce Harrell's oligarch PAC comes from outside of Seattle. 7% comes from out of state. Bruce Harrell doesn't represent us. Vote for @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social

Listening to Bruce Harrell on the campaign trail, you'd never know that traffic fatalities in Seattle have actually increased during his term as whole and that last year was the deadliest year on city roads in decades.

Starting Oct. 11, the Vashon Island water taxi is adding Saturday sailings. People can now walk or bike to Vashon Island with seven sailings over the course of the day.

Ban this anti-human tech from your life.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Installing someone like Bari Weiss as the head of a major news organization isn’t even about profit or longevity. In effect it’s about continuing to shrink the traditional news industry smaller and smaller and weaker and weaker and less and less journalism based until it ceases to exist

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

Thank you @theurbanist.org @seattletru.bsky.social @sngreenways.bsky.social @transpochoices.bsky.social and every volunteer and advocate fighting for better mobility, connection, and safety on our streets. This is a shared win and something to celebrate.

plumber: are you handy? me: i can be, but i’m lazy. plumber: i like the honesty, son.

Seattleites: can we have bus lanes? SDOT under Bruce Harrell: the best I can do is get rid of the agua fresca vendors

Getting your defamation lawsuit struck under Rule 8 is roughly analogous to getting sent home early on the first day of school because you decided not to wear pants ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

Businesses don't need parking. They need customers. Customers in our business districts aren't driving in, they are walking over from their homes and the nearest bus stops.

Seattle is far, far behind other cities around the state in clinging to mandatory parking requirements. As a reminder, these are mandates that developers build parking for people who live in dense housing, not a requirement that they don't build parking.

Bothell, Shoreline, and Spokane now allow homebuilders the flexibility to determine what level of car parking makes sense. But Sara Nelson thinks Seattle's government should dictate how much car parking buildings must have. Embarrassing.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

The Seattle Times editorial board: onerous requirements that could stymie housing production in Seattle to save trees are good...and also the only way to fund Washington's rural schools is by logging tens of thousands of acres of forest land.

An image weird enough to be a Paul Verhoeven plot device yet it’s a real thing out in the world. Trump’s cryptic dirty letter to Epstein. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

This is not a distraction, this is the president giving his followers permission to beat their wives. Lives literally depend on whether we condemn or condone this.

no surprised that brett ”almost certainly flunked his remedial classes” kavanaugh thinks the constitution authorizes a race-based federal “papers please” regime. quick, someone ask him what he thinks of the fugitive slave act.

Trump invoking Captain EO “We’re going in.”
