From organizing against bus cuts in 2011 to funding a major expansion of Metro bus service in 2026, today is a full-circle moment for Katie Wilson.

Seattle’s beloved, scampering, neck-scrunched raccoon got a shoutout on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show” on Monday night — adding to the furry internet celebrity’s trove of tributes that include artwork, merch and more.

Jon Stewart is Team Jimothy

the real question is, how many SPD settlements does it take to offset the cost of universal free school meals

Seattle is essentially a deep blue one-party town, so our political poles have mutated in an interesting way. We now have 2 parties: The "Cities Are Good, Actually, and We Can Have Nice Things" Party and the "Cities Are Bad, Actually and We Can't Afford Nice Things (Unless It's for the Cops)" Party

Like…what

When real news is QT'd by Lex ... you know shit is fucked. Let's hope the guy is removed from all athority positions and never holds a servant position again

This guy is going to kill someone innocent and SPD hasn't fired him. Every next sentence of this story gets creepier. His wife is lucky to be alive because he was clearly setting up a way to kill her and get away with it.

Progressives vs. Closeted Republicans

I just need someone to convince my husband.

IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING The slip lane from Denny Way to Yale Avenue closes permanently NEXT WEEKEND www.theurbanist.org/sdot-prepare...

Tribal police in Washington hire officers fired elsewhere at a rate four times higher than their share of the workforce.

Utterly villainous stuff. The public doesn’t support this. Democrats need to go hard against it

Send this to Seattle City Councilmember Joy Hollingsworth, who wants to stop Mayor Katie Wilson’s universal free school meals plan. Or to Brian Heywood, the right-winger trying to repeal WA’s new millionaires tax which helps fund universal free school meals at the state level.

This article is all about how she wants to focus on affordability while she's still voting to give Israel however much more money they want to kill whoever they want. We need to never elect people like her again. If you're looking for another option, check out @huntergordon.bsky.social .

Seattle Police Officer Marlon Williams-Booth, a self-appointed "elite hero of downtown Seattle," used his FIFA “urban warfare” training on his wife. He was arrested at the end of May. open.substack.com/pub/divestsp...

it's always something with these ppl

"Tree advocates" are for preserving space for cars and parking at the expensive of the climate while making bad faith arguments against housing at the expense of trees.

August primary ballots — including an important vote for libraries and a couple hot political battles — are in the hands of Capitol Hill and Central District voters

I'm shocked anyone (cough, Seattle Times ed board) would advocate against library funding. Libraries are essential public goods and community spaces, they spread ideas and knowledge, and they serve as a guard against authoritarianism. Who would be served by crippling library cuts? Hmm.

🚨 Don't miss this crucial voting info! 🚨 Only one candidate in WA State's Congressional District 1 US Representative election truly stands out: Hunter Gordon. He boldly opposes AIPAC, unlike his opponent Suzan DelBene who is tied to them. Make an informed choice and vote with your conscience!

I do not take AIPAC money & am not beholden to Israel. I will never fund genocide and will fight fascism everywhere. www.electhunter.com

People say it would never work out, but I’ve had cats my whole life—they can’t be much different.

Clean house.

While the majority of Democrats did the right thing, @repdelbene.bsky.social chose to stand with AIPAC and Republicans to fund genocide. It's time for WA-01 to make a different choice. www.instagram.com/stories/hunt...

The City of Issaquah just notched another housing reform in its belt for 2026, illustrating how fast a council and a mayor aligned on the issue can move. Tonight's approved bill allows for self-certification of DADUs - making Issaquah the first city in the state to implement HB 1353.

My Jimothy Raccoon fan art. What a guy.

"I regret to tell you that the weight of your longing is a bit much for my (apparently hilarious) abbreviated spine. I only have so many vertebrae, and they simply cannot carry your aspirations to fix whatever is wrong with you all, which, I further regret to tell you, is A LOT."

Ballardians got a new swanky French pastry shop and Jimothy fame in one week. Life is good. Now just build light rail and Ballard will be the top neighborhood in Seattle:

Make the audience the fact-checkers instead of the "journalists." The magic of AI strikes again. 🤦 “A limitation is that OCR data obtained by LLMs may contain hallucinations, which in fact occurred ... one way to deal with this was to give our readers the opportunity to report mistakes via email.”

"He’s been having sexual relations with a goddess: Not a red flag, since refusing a deity might have led to death or something far worse: being called an ill-mannered guest."

Although the U.S. Postal Service can continue developing its mail-in ballot rules under President Donald Trump's court win last week, a previous federal court decision in Boston would keep any of those rules from affecting Washington's vote-by-mail system "through the November election.”

We wanted to know if Mitch McConnell is still alive. So we stood outside a Daytona Beach Walmart and asked a man wearing a shirt with a graphic of Trump bursting out of an American flag.

Jimothy, the short-spined raccoon who’s taken Seattle and the world by storm, will now forever be immortalized not only in people’s minds, but also, on some of their skin.

You, a normal person: I wonder if I will catch a parasite. Me, an urbanist: I wonder if the parasite outbreak will finally kill Uptown’s remaining drive thru.

I'll be tuned into Renton later tonight.

Massive flub for the Wright Family to shut down the PacSci iMax right before The Odyssey hits theaters; Taxes need to be higher for these folks.

As the Puget Sound region sizzles under high temperatures this week, residents will be cranking up their air conditioners. Washington’s Legislature recently enacted a law that gives renters the right to install portable AC units, specifically during hot flashes like this one.
