I’m just curious… why is the US Coast Guard on the Seattle/Bremerton ferry this morning? I’ve just never seen them watching people board before!

Im tired of waking up so sad

Did everyone and their uncle just move to Seattle from Arkansas, Texas, and North Carolina???? Never seen this many out of state plates on a regular basis before.

Good morning Seattle! Are we swimming yet? Anyone else caving and buying an umbrella this week? Do NOT side eye me when I buy my first ever adult umbrella.

Canadian publisher Kids Can Press "strongly condemns any denigrating, violent, or unauthorized use of Franklin's name or image" following Pete Hegseth's post:

Why are king county sheriffs driving around with the Texas state flag on their cars??? Do they not serve WA and its residents?

Seattle Now!!! No news roundup next week??? What gives?!

Dear Men: Almost all of you are friendly with and/or work with men like this. Until you make it clear WITH YOUR WORDS AND ACTIONS IN SOCIAL SITUATIONS WITH OTHER MEN that you are unwilling to accept this, it will continue to happen frequently. End your participation in this.

Seattle!!! What’s your morning routine? What do you need every morning to feel like you’re ready for the rain, clouds, and the big dark?

Oh Seattle Now, thank you for being a part of my daily routine. My morning coffee and evening drive home would be incomplete without you.

Thank you to whoever painted a big heart over the swastika outside my apartment. A man put that up above his tent and then eventually left and I’ve had to stare at it and the words “Nazi Pride” every morning sick to my stomach. Seattle has Nazi’s even on the street (he verbally confirmed he is one)

Got that depression, anxiety, and rumination combo that makes the brain go zip zap zop and leaves me dehydrated and malnourished. I love October!

This kind of unity is what they fear. If Portland is “war torn” the war they are referring to is happening in the hearts and minds of every individual who sees through their attempts to divide, oppress and subjugate. If that is the case, then there is a war. We are winning it. #portland #solidarity

Seattle deserves real action, not embellishment. I am running to bring real solutions to our homelessness crisis — not fudge the numbers. #thisisyourcity

Bryce Miller overcame a shaky first inning and gave the tired Seattle Mariners the start they needed in the AL Championship Series opener.

Grateful to have a fiancé who makes sure I’m safe. Confusing sometimes to have someone care like this

Love that the mariners won, but I’m fucking PISSED that every fucking entrance to get to my apartment is blocked by SPD. Like they’ve completely shut down the turns. It’s 11 pm and I got off work an hour ago

A man broke into the Washington State Capitol's Legislative Building on Sunday night, smashed equipment, and lit a fire in the state reception room.

I’m reading 1984 for the first time since I was first required to read it in school, which was what? 9th grade? How did I miss the misogyny back then? I mean from the get go, Winston *hates* women. And we can argue back and forth about his character development, but reading this when I’m older,

Cramps morphing into the stabbing butt pains that go down my legs so that’s a really fun Wednesday for me

NEW: The IE supporting Mayor Bruce Harrell just hit $1 million, obliterating Wilson's sub $100k IE. Will the election go to the highest bidder or will Harrell's opposition generate enough outrage over the naked attempt to buy the election to backfire? www.theburnerseattle.com/post/the-ult...

We’re at peak greed when the president brags about 24k gold décor for the White House while cutting commissaries, healthcare, and social nets. A palace of glitter for him, an empty pantry and hospital bill for you.

Rivera's two year old tactic of using "lack of data" and "lack of engagement" to avoid decision-making is disqualifying for serving as an elected official.

Norman. Reedus. I just. I mean, I’m nearly speechless. What else is there to say, other than his name?

Oh boy is all I can say

Hey Seattle - is it normal for my apartment landlord to give notice that they can enter anytime during these three days? That doesn’t seem like a reasonable request. One day, sure. But three? And you can’t tell me when? On top of that, they’ve done like three separate fire inspections recently

Did you know that if you’re a college athlete, you don’t have to wait in traffic! No worries, Seattle Police are more than happy to escort you. Idk maybe yall should’ve left earlier?

Hello Seattle Skylight :)

Time to start posting on this app! On to better socials :) #seattle

Gonna just start sharing the media I consume, because, why not?! Thread of Podcasts:

Scary lol

Even school principals… A Seattle elementary principal decided to use ChatGPT for a very serious school wide email, but she kept, “write an empathetic sounding email” in the header. Embarrassing, especially coming from those who should be leading our children.

Partisan redistricting is sweeping the country. Could it happen in WA? (No, there aren’t enough Dems/votes in the legislature to start the process)

Our health care system is close to collapse. Not enough doctors, nurses or dentists. Costs are skyrocketing. Trump’s legislation will cause hospitals, nursing homes & community health centers to cut back services. We need a simple, universal system: Medicare for All.

friendly reminder: before you see it federally, you'll see it happened in southern test states first. I put this video out last year and lo and behold today we are seeing the White House pushing for their preferred re-education of America. full vid: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kIW... #prageru

I’m not trying to downplay things, but Trumps plan for the homeless reminds me A LOT of Seattle’s endless and cruel encampment sweeps. Congrats Mayor Harrel and all those in support of treating the homeless population like lesser humans, you’re *just like* Trump, isn’t that fun?

So the Seattle Council’s decision to move forward with frightening levels of surveillance primarily south of Yesler is TERRIFYING considering everything going on. I wish they would reconsider the increased cameras and lack of regulation

If you've been scammed by student loan servicers or have problems with your loans, the Trump administration is abandoning you.

For the 4th time in a year, Seattle voters made their preference for more progressive governance clear. In the mayoral race, Katie Wilson leads the moderate incumbent mayor Bruce Harrell. Wilson’s opponents tactics of painting progressives as extreme may have gotten stale. #SEAelex #WAvotes

www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8k9m1DY/ The Hamilton trend on TikTok makes me want to try being a drag king for a night

I did NOT spend 5 minutes drawing circles, not at all, nooooooo My circle is 98.0% perfect, can you beat that? neal.fun/perfect-circ...

Hearing from people in South Seattle that they’re not really feeling connected to Katie Wilson’s campaign. Would love to see her involvement and commitment to central district, the CID, SODO, etc.

Woah, long time no see socials. What have I missed?

Here’s former ABC reporter Terry Moran’s first post on Substack. Thank you, Terry, for being unafraid to lift up your voice. This is bigger than politics as usual. When a President is handcuffing Senators, threatening the free press, and so much more—we all have to speak up for our democracy.

The interview of congressman Adam Smith on Sound Politics was just… *weird* He came off as extremely defensive and borderline hostile towards Sawant even when they were kind of done talking about her. He seemed annoyed to have to talk about Gaza at all. You can tell it’s an election cycle fr.

POD Save America had a very odd take about the Palestinian flags at protests. It’s also one of the only times I’ve heard them talk about Palestine? It seems like they’re annoyed that they had to see it or talk about it.

Seattle police response to fireworks being set off in the fire that they surrounded. Attacked frontline people protesting who were not involved in the fireworks whatsoever. Video: footage from majorhustler on tiktok, saved and uploaded by mans75715

This is illegal. This is illegal. Did I mention this is illegal?

Within SECOND SPD flipped peoples bodies in the air, shot them with rubber bullets. All because of fireworks. People standing in the front who did NOTHING were brutally attacked
