Welp. With that Padres loss, the #Mariners will NOT have home field advantage in the #WorldSeries should they make it that far. All NLDS teams have a better record than the M’s. Bring on the Tigers! #goms

As a parent with little children. Ebikes have completely unlocked me. My wife & I can now bring our children around the city on our ebike, I can bring them to school & every season I see more & more parents zooming around with them. More bike lanes, more ebikes...they're not motorcycles

This is roughly 3/4 mile [150 cars x 25 feet per car (18 ft avg length + six feet between cars on average) = 0.71 miles]. With an average capacity of 1.3 people per car, that’s 195 people. When I say car infrastructure is a geometry problem, this is what I’m talking about.

This person summed up in 21 words the contents of a couple thousand emails sent to SDOT, the Mayor's office, and Council over the last 24 hours. Advocates for non-car transport have to win every public and private battle; opponents only need to win once. So we'll just keep on winning, I guess.

I’ve been considering the appropriateness and feasibility of a Seattle-only capital construction source for HCT to accelerate the build-out of @seattlesubway.org vision network. This new budget reality may necessitate that in order for us to get a comprehensive rail network here in Seattle.

Against the backdrop of our current mayoral race, this paints the clearest picture of the difference between an incumbent who has absolutely no pulse on the transit environment in our city, and a challenger who literally founded a transit riders union. Vote for @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social

Hacked off? So are we. Join @seattletru.bsky.social, @csgreenways.bsky.social, @fixthel8.bsky.social, @seattlesubway.org, and more to tell the city to keep our bus lanes where they are. Even the little ones. actionnetwork.org/letters/seat... (Photo used with permission.)

We’ll actively spend excessive money militarizing our communities before we ever spend a dime to actually pay people a living wage or provide housing and healthcare to people who need it. People who have their basic needs met aren’t robbing grocery stores. Private security is a systemic failure.

Couldn't have said it better myself

Antifa is an adjective, not a noun. This administration will indiscriminately try to use this designation to oppress and imprison people who disagree with Dear Leader. We are not helpless in this. United we stand, divided we fall.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Most people want the street to be safer and traffic experts say speed humps will slow traffic and reduce collisions, but some people didn’t want speed humps so their hands were tied. There’s nothing the mayor’s office could do.

Waiting for the L8 at 5th and Denny… Can’t wait to break out the red paint!

The broken Seattle Process™️ prevents elected officials from delivering for constituents, and helps fuel cynicism in local government.

It’s REALLY important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against downtown bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of the evidence that they are better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced. Bike-lanes mean business.

Yikes. Get those ballots in folks! kingcounty.gov/en/dept/elec...

Negative responses tend to be more quantitative, giving NIMBY’s more sway than they should have. Positive/supportive comments help give cover to board members and politicians to make better decisions. Here is my brief e-mail to the HPB supporting the Doyle Building development.

This morning’s 8-mile ride to summer camp was telling, about half the cyclists I passed were parents on a family bike with kids. Hard to believe how uncommon that was just a few years ago.

I just rode this segment Wednesday night on my way home from hockey!

With Alaskan Way bikeway opening, Seattle has a complete bike route along its downtown waterfront for the first time in city history #SEAbikes #Seattle www.seattlebikeblog.com/2025/07/25/w...

that's right! e-bikes replace *car* trips they're the greatest climate mobility hack invented yet governments should be giving them away

My sibling can’t drive because he is disabled. Public transit, including light rail, isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. Living near good transit has become a luxury because we’ve failed to build enough housing, especially near link stations.

😂 @westseattlebikedad.bsky.social: « Another reader, Anthony Avery, who bikes through West Seattle, said his commute was unchanged as he has “made the intentional decision to not be held hostage inside a two-ton metal cage for hours of my day.” » 👏 👏 👏 😂 😆 🤭 www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

The “E-Bike Effect:” Those who bought e-bikes increased their average daily bicycle use from 2.1km (1.3 miles) to 9.2km (5.7 miles), a 340% increase. The e-bike share of all their transportation increased dramatically too; from 17% to 49%. E-bikes support fewer car trips. V @lloydalter.bsky.social

As someone who lives (rather loudly) without a car in Seattle, I 💚 and greatly respect Katie and her family for this. You can't draw a more stark contrast in the Mayor's race than "I won't lead with bikes" and "I take the bus and bike everywhere, usually with my kid."

The Office has been off the air now for as long as Cheers was when The Office premiered.

Sounds like biking to hockey this weekend for me!! 🚲🏒

Lady at my kids school: “You ride the bike all the way home?” I was legitimately befuddled. Like, she knows where we live and I’m just like “what do you mean all the way? It’s only like 4.5 miles” I just…I really don’t identify with people who spend their traveling lives behind the wheel of a car

Billy Corgan, time to join the #waroncars cc: @thewaroncars.bsky.social

If there’s one thing I absolutely arbor about Seattle politics, it’s discussing trees.

Read the whole thread!!

I’m debating NOT filling out my kids’ Social Security Disability information this year or releasing any of their information to the federal government for any purpose. Until this year, I’ve never been worried that the government may use this information to cause my family harm. 😡😡

I feel like this is a pop culture full circle moment. Before we had Kanye as a gay fish, but today we have Mario singing slow jams for fish in the Netherlands. #fishsticks #fishdoorbell showmeyournetherlands.com

Me: Riding the bus home with my bike on front to save energy for hockey tonight Cyclist Logic: If I transfer, I’ll have to go up the little 1/4 mile hill after the bus drops me off. Might as well just bike the last five miles home.

I’m so excited to be working on an effort to bring affordable, market rate options to our neighborhoods. We’re just getting started so keep an eye out for more information as our program is developed and deployed! respace.co

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

North Delridge, join SDOT this Wednesday for a walk around the neighborhood to help identify opportunities for new, safe walking infrastructure! Date: Wednesday, March 19, 2025 Time: 5 PM – 6:30 PM Location: Delridge SPL Library, 5423 Delridge Way Children are welcome! Rain or shine!

Closing day!! Always exciting to help someone buy their first home 🥰🥰

I wonder what pushing our national unemployment rate over 10% is going to do to the economy 🧐🧐

Seattle spent $12M in 2023 on 'Intelligent Traffic Signals' along the Route 8 corridor to improve traffic flow and reduce delay. Can you tell when they turned them on?

Fact Check: It’s True

41 bikes on this ferry, compared to the 202 motor vehicle capacity. Meanwhile 2500 people can fit on the M/V Puyallup serving Bainbridge Island and Seattle. Bike and pedestrian infrastructure are about space and efficiency that cars, no matter their propulsion fuel, can achieve.

Happy: Black history Black present Black future Black love Black joy Black health Black healing Black people Black community Black family Black kids Black culture Black creativity Black ingenuity Black legacy Black innovation Black liberation Black resistance Black existence ...month🖤

This is outstanding

The love of my life, the mother of my children, and her feelings about coasters.
