Still looking for the cure. 🥺

Over the last couple of weeks the following things have broken: Car, computer, printer, air purifier, orb lamp, approx 8 glass dishes (shelf fell), anyway it's getting silly by which I mean maddening which is cool because it was already like that so why not more or something anyway abolish ICE ✨️

Reminder that, in recent days, children have rallied and protested for their freedom inside an ICE detention center where water has been described as "putrid" and meals reportedly contain “bugs,” dirt, and debris. This is where the kidnapped 5-year-old Liam Ramos is being held.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

The @usdot.bsky.social, which oversees the safety of airplanes, cars and pipelines, plans to use Google Gemini to draft new regulations. “We don’t need the perfect rule,” said DOT’s top lawyer. “We want good enough.”

remember when the Republicans attempted to repeal Obamacare 70 times while Obama was still in office? how they kept introducing votes that they knew couldn't pass just to frustrate their opponents? bringing this up for no reason

@juliedicaro.bsky.social seems an important reminder on today's Far Side Calendar

I said this last time but their real position is “if you disagree with us we can kill you.”

REMINDER: DO NOT SAY THINGS IN A PUBLIC FORUM THAT WOULD SINK YOUR DEFENSE IN A CRIMINAL TRIAL. DO NOT PLAN OR PLOT TO COMMIT VIOLENCE AGAINST THE STATE ON HERE. DO NOT TALK HERE OR ANYWHERE ELSE TO PEOPLE YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT POSSIBLY ILLEGAL ACTIVITY YOU MAY OR MAY NOT BE CONTEMPLATING.

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

i don’t actually expect every elected official to be willing to do what is necessary at this point in history, but if they won’t, i do expect them to step aside for someone who will

i don’t think it’s appropriate that old people are my age

i like how abolishing ICE is seen by dems as extreme. like, a world without murderous cops is such a fanciful concept.

I need some fabric glue and now I'm sad again that Joanns is gone

“We pulled their car over after suspecting a fully conscious human being may be inside driving it while just existing,” said Agent Ivan Smoldick. “Sure enough, we discovered people weaponizing the inhalation of oxygen at us in the car, leaving us with no choice but to shoot them in self-defense.”

Seattle Now casual Friday panel is in love with leaf blowers?!?! Terrible take. Blowing wet leaves doesn't work. Just get a rake or a push broom or a shovel. It's easier and so much less annoying @kuow.org

if you are talking today about how bad maduro was and were alive, at all, during the run-up to the iraq war you are potentially the dumbest person to ever live

If your position is that regime change should be forced on countries where the president does not respect democratic norms and regularly kidnaps opponents using an officially sanctioned paramiliatary, have I got news for you about your position on the United States

Happy New Year!

Here’s to 2026

the problem with dedicating campaign funds toward charitable endeavors is what if you lose and then all you’ve done is helped people in need in your community?

Seattle Man Leaves Out Plate of Cheese for When St. Rat Comes Up Through Toilet Tonight: tinyurl.com/nhf8cr8s

it's Christmas Eve but it's also the 16 year anniversary of the time an art historian for the Hungarian National Gallery spotted a long lost painting while watching Stuart Little with his 3-year-old daughter, recognizing it in the movie set

My Christmas wish is that blue states stop paying federal taxes until the federal government actually starts doing its job

You might think I am smart or maybe moderately functional but today I saw a lady wearing a coat similar to mine and i simply thought "that's me. What am I doing there?" Aka dog mentality

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

Earlier this week I learned that a single tide pod has enough detergent in it to do FIVE loads of laundry. I suspect this is across the board so I'm now cutting my detergent sheets in half. Learned on @nosuchthingpod.bsky.social

not now babe it's infishtructure week

i think if you voted for the same guy in 2016 and 2024 you should sit the next election out as part of a “fool me twice” situation

The ideal social media site would only allow photos of animals, lunches and craft projects, and the only comments you're allowed to make are 'Hello', 'Very cool' and 'We are friends'

this is an owl

info.kingcounty.gov/kcelections/... Ask everyone you know, especially under 40 to track their ballots, Seattle!

Did ChatGPT tell the Democratic Party to kill itself??

A thing that I think is good is when a human creates a piece of art

a cool disruptive fact to bring up at thanksgiving this year is that 53% of homeless people are employed.

If you see someone stealing food - no you didn't.

Hi I'm on the Seattle Channel on Art Zone 😀 @seattlechannel.bsky.social youtu.be/RqrhOlF9X-U?...

Thankfully there is a new episode of @americanhysteria.bsky.social about Spontaneous Human Combustion with the wonderful Sarah Marshall of @yourewrongabout.bsky.social

Probably a good time to remind people that a primate shitting is either a territorial marker or a sign of fear; literally shedding the load to be lighter when it runs away.

Disappearing into the bog for some much-needed bog time, returning after a month with a new healthy glow and a strange, faraway look in my eyes like a wild hare

eye twitching in morse code

I've lived in Seattle for a 3.5 years and have been bitten by the following animals: a mouse 2 baby squirrels 1 hornet, twice And today, an unidentified biting fly of some kind, on the face. Looking forward to new list additions
