In the thick of leaf-peeping season.

After his acquittal in the Centralia IWW trial in 1919, Elmer Smith ran (unsuccessfully) for Lewis County prosecutor on the short-lived Washington Farmer-Labor ticket. Here he is responding to a pamphlet circulating in the county making outlandish claims about what the F-L Party’s aims were.

Not a lawyer either but I feel if I was a juror it would be hard for me to find injury when the supposedly injured agent had a plush sandwich on a shelf in his office and his fellow agents gave him a novelty patch making fun of the incident. And yeah, the supposed weapon was a sandwich.

Courtland Sutton is in the passing stats because he had the ball and got sacked lol what a game

Pete Carroll coaching a team in an unwatchable primetime game, is there anything more dependable than that?

Every month for the last 77 years, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has estimated Americans' unemployment rate This streak dies tomorrow Govt staff could not survey Americans about whether they're working or looking for work in Oct, the 1st time in 934 months This blind spot will remain forever

This issue of BusinessWeek being delivered after Tuesday is very funny.

Am I insane or is he starting to get that colloidal silver blue tint to his skin?

This is not an exaggeration, Helen is perhaps the only one that is an actual psychopath.

I had a real “oh god, who is this now?” reaction to the “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” headline but it’s just Helen Andrews squeezing more mileage out of her repulsive and stupid essay.

Google Maps highlighted this side of an otherwise nondescript commercial building as “Houston Mural” and Google Maps was not wrong.

I can’t tell if it’s sleet, hail, or heavy rain out right now.

I don’t really have an opinion on the city-run grocery store idea but WA had state run liquor stores until recently and prices were lower and inventory was never short, and if they didn’t have a brand you were interested in they would order it for you. And that was *without* private competition.

Unsurprising that, after his party got its ass whipped, Trump would lean into vote fraud horseshit. A little surprising, though, that no one has yet told him that anonymous grocery shopping remains not just possible but the norm.

I’m keeping my city politics opinions to myself.

Sturdy boys, still went 9-7

The future of the party is running good candidates that can win where they are running but that’s boring, so we will continue to be inundated with takes about representative ideology that tell us nothing, just as the pundit gods intended.

David Brooks makes up a Horkheimer to get mad at

An “it’s misty and I have a pounding headache and the tenant says there’s a roof leak and I’m waiting for an elevator repair man” album.

Guy is convinced a range hood would reduce allergens and mold in his *rental* house, mentions this to the landlord, does not specify if the landlord signed off, proceeds to route the exhaust duct in the dumbest way possible: through his kitchen cabinets and an exterior wall.

I managed to make it through the spring and summer with only one sweater lost to moths. They clearly had a vendetta against that one.

I love this part of the SNF broadcast during a blowout when Tirico and Collinsworth are just chatting about stuff. They should start doing those birthday greetings to 100-year-olds like Willard Scott used to do on the Today Show.

Collinsworth gushing about the Seahawks very strongly

This game is very much over I don’t know why Quinn still had Daniels out there.

Boooo that sucks so bad

Is it Darnover?

I appreciate that at the Cramps tribute night at Slim’s Tom Price ended up clad only in a feather boa and his Fender Mustang. You’re never too old to get weird.

Rain-free morning. My favorite rose bush was damaged in the windstorm last week and I had to take out a good 60% of it. (It’s the pale pink rose in the photo.)

Jays up.

It might be Aldo Nover for the Canadian side.

Hitter’s Revenge

Two wowza catches in a row there

Ohtani’s command has left the chat.

Fall enjoyers

Such a vivid little tree in the fall.

Pho season is upon us. I had this broth simmering all afternoon.

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo “I’m an American citizen so leave me alone” “Alright, we just got to verify that” www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...

THURSDAY: I’m hosting a resource fair with the City of Seattle to get assistance to federal workers who have been impacted by the Republican Shutdown. Come to get resources from state and local government as well as a variety of organizations, and please bring any neighbors who have been impacted!

Switched from Ernie Ball Power Slinky strings to Rotosound Roto Reds. #wow #boring

It is my genuine hope that one day people like this will wake up from the dark lives they are living and actually care about other people in their communities. This was on a local news post about resources for people who are reliant on SNAP and WIC.

Package value: $25. It’s enough to damage someone’s career in financial services, though. The entire basis of the petty theft charge was that the cameras picked up her vehicle, nothing more. They never gave her the alleged footage from the residence that showed her stealing the package.

Why is the state I was born and raised in so dumb? Although I suppose this is a nice break from it being outright evil.

I remember someone in this market, a former player, criticizing Guerrero’s hustle when he was a free agent candidate. That was pretty good hustle IMHO.

Dr. Rogers’ crime was being ED when an Alamo Twitter account posted about Indigenous Peoples Day. The justification for her removal came from her dissertation, in which she suggested politicians should not dictate how history is taught.
