Tesla's toplines might have looked pretty good, but @electrek.co.web.brid.gy has the breakdown on all the accounting tricks Elon used to hid the fundamental problem: his car business is flailing. electrek.co/2026/04/22/t...

“This was not a disease that was killing healthy people. It was killing sick people”. RFK Jr. lying about the COVID19 pandemic.

Seattle celebrity pastor Russell Johnson has sucked Browne's Addition, and with it our reporter Aaron Hedge, into his orbit. Read about Hedge's journey here.

People (allegedly) have tried but they keep getting arrested

i’m getting fangs installed

Well that’s TPUSA’s fault for holding an event in a deep blue city like…wait, Waco?!

Anyways, today was the final day of my class. Somehow the semester has already gone by! It was such a privilege and an honor to be able to co-teach a course on trans rights at the law school.

One, two, three, four… I declare a Simone war! (I feel like best two out of three thumb wrestling is how this really needs to be resolved) @muskratjohn.bsky.social @gailsimone.bsky.social

Zhang Shan won the gold medal for the mixed skeet shooting event in the 1992 Olympics. The International Shooting Union *immediately* banned women from competing against men.

I haven't shared an update in a while... most recently because l've been a little preoccupied with a *certain* wonderful table! Absolutely cannot wait for folks to meet these brilliant adventurers and, of course, to experience yet again the sheer GENIUS of @thatbronzegirl.bsky.social

Going to the store anyone want anything?

It's almost better than waking up to sex.

Flood the dude's mailbox. Even if he is out of office someone is going to have to deal with it.

The TERFs are now aligning with the anti LGBTQ hate group ADF to target a non-competitive recreational run called Parkrun in the UK to end their inclusion of trans people. www.independent.co.uk/sport/great-...

An attendee from April 19's Seattle Town Hall IOF soldier speaking event told a protester who was shouting "baby killers!" as he and his wife approached that "we're going to keep killing them." Follow & subscribe to our newsletter at ThroughtheStatic.org for more PNW antifascist news.

"It just felt like the floor had fallen out. Like all the support that I thought we had was gone. Maybe this is naive, but I didn't think that would happen in Massachusetts." there is functionally a conspiracy to gaslight you into believing that, so it's understandable www.npr.org/2026/04/17/n...

Yep, company goes bankrupt so no one actually gets paid (except the lawyers) and it's properties are sold off to new companies owned by the old owners. Ultimately no one is ever really held accountable.

Kitsap County:

I don't get people that live in places like this. How do they navigate without mountains for landmarks?

NEW: Palantir Employees Are Starting to Wonder if They're the Bad Guys Interviews with current and former Palantir employees, along with internal Slack messages obtained by @wired.com, suggest a workforce in turmoil. read @makenakelly.bsky.social:

The problem with policies like the one proposed is that they are often selectively enforced. Jewish synagogues and Christian churches would be protected, but any talk of also protecting mosques would be called antisemitic and supporting terrorism.

Israeli police forcibly removed someone's kippah (Jewish head covering), and cut off a piece of it. Because it had a Palestinian flag. In any other country, police forcibly removing and cutting a kippah would rightfully be condemned as antisemitic. It's antisemitic this time as well.

Washington state: You are being invaded by Christian Nazis. Many are moving here from other places. There is massive amounts of money being poured into mobilizing them. It’s a coordinated effort. See thread 🧵

Inside Palantir, people are finally waking up to the fact that they might actually be the bad guys Great reporting once again from @makenakelly.bsky.social www.wired.com/story/palant...

An even nuttier idea: instead use that money to give Americans the same universal healthcare that Israeli citizens already have. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthc...

🚨 CPJ calls for urgent international investigation into Israel’s killing of Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil. Israel’s failure to allow medical crews access in time to save her while she was injured may constitute a war crime. Read more: cpj.org/2026/04/cpj-...

As we approach May Day this year I'd like to remind people that there are two groups of skinheads. Fashion skinheads are your friends. They are working class bros Fascist skinheads are the bad guys. They need to be punched in the face. Please know the difference.

As the saying goes "pigs get fat hogs get slaughtered".

I’m not saying there is a “best way” to celebrate Earth Day, actually I am, and this map made by our geologists is it

Brianna Wu just went to a new level of horrible.

Someday I hope I can wind up on a CD as SWIMSUIT/BEACHGAL

In my Mayoral Renter's Survey, thousands of Seattle renters told me that their landlords use Ratio Utility Billing Systems, and my own apartment building recently switched to RUBS too. Thank you to all the tenants organizing for affordability and accountability. www.seattletimes.com/business/rea...

What a strange thing for DHS to post.

Not really an issue for me

Please Lord let this be True. 👊🙏🙏🙏🙏🤞🤞🤞🤞👏👍🇺🇸😎

The SPLC was just indicted by the Trump DOJ for its work related to researching extremist organizations. For today’s episode of On Offense, I interviewed @michaelehayden.bsky.social, who was one of the SPLC’s top researchers about his new book, Strange People on the Hill. 1/2

There's a post-AWP sale at @gameoverbooks.bsky.social and all non-2026 titles are $10 until Saturday so you should probably go get some very good books right now

Here's a nice little story about my friendship with @lindseyadler.bsky.social, who was around me when most people in my life we saying "you're insane," but she was saying "you're insane, but you're also right, so you should keep going."

Feeling a little vulnerable putting this out there as I don't typically feel comfortable asking for financial help but here goes nothin' Now that the initial scary diagnosis part is over, I'm now entering the scary US Healthcare part. Any help at all is appreciated, even just a share. Thank you 💜

Seattle Times wants the state to rely more heavily on "natural" gas and hope for nuclear fusion instead of decarbonizing, which is yet anohter example of why editorial boards—made up of non-experts who often get facts wrong about stories in their own newspapers—should go the way of the dodo.

I'm sure she is a lovely person but where are her policy positions? What does she support? Is she committed to things like Universal Healthcare of some kind? What about a Green New Deal? There is literally nothing about that on her website. That's a huge red flag.
