SDOT CREW-DELIVERED WORK is one way the Seattle Transportation Levy delivers local projects to maintain and modernize your streets. Doing the work in-house lowers costs and speeds up construction. Here are ten recently completed projects across the city:

How can this go on for another 3 years?

A day late for Transit Operator Appreciation Day, but here's to my @communitytransit.bsky.social driver, Jon (or John). www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

I do not think that conflating the Jewish people and the Jewish state is responsible at this juncture.

A little palette cleanser today at the National Portrait Gallery

This is so spot on

7am and sidewalks starting to fill up at 4th and Cherry. Go Hawks!

So excited for this show at the Neptune on Friday. CC: @caryw.bsky.social www.pastemagazine.com/music/r-e-m/...

Amazing!

Seattle youth standing up!

Bearing witness to immigration enforcement activity is powerful and under attack. #WAISN #RapidResponse is grassroots, immigrant-led, and focused on accountability, care, and solidarity, not interfering with law enforcement. Join us 👉 tinyurl.com/RRWAISN #NonViolence #Solidarity

Love seeing public spaces created with my projects being used for the resistance.

This moment in history provides us with incontrovertible evidence that all the conservatives who claim to be extremely devoted to freedom of speech and the right to bear arms, and opposed to the encroachment of tyranny, are completely and totally full of shit. It's all white supremacy and greed.

Go Hawks!

Random photo of mine I came across. November 13, 2006. Secret Machines play a free concert at Westlake Park for the launch of the Microsoft Zune.

Confirmed ICE activity in South Snohomish County today. Watch out for each other folks, and contact @waisn.bsky.social if you suspect ICE activity.

I’ve listened to more Rage Against the Machine in the last 12 months than I have my entire life.

Abolish ICE

Steve Woodard was unanimously elected by his fellow council members as the new Mountlake Terrace Mayor tonight. Great choice!

SPOG busy making shit up again about Mayor Katie Wilson. Right-wing media bought it hook, line, and sinker. But you love to see this strong pushback from Wilson’s office.

@djjohnrichards.bsky.social killing it this morning with the playlist. David Bowie, DCFC, the Mountain Goats, Jesse Welles, John Prine. Great way to start out the first workday of the year!

ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground. Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse. Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

Loving the Pike St holiday tree farm!

Today's column: "Remember Sam Doyle, the first-time activist I wrote about in March? Now, you can call her Mountlake Terrace City Councilmember-elect Doyle. …  Her experience can serve as something of a case study for people who might be interested in running for office for the first time."

Best Christmas movie sequel? Home Alone 2? Pretty damn good. Die Hard 2?

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

It’s been a great week for Mountlake Terrace. Progressive candidate Sam Doyle officially elected by a close 20 vote margin and then just last night our city Council unanimously voted to officially cancel our contract with Flock Safety.

Great public meeting on the Snohomish River Regional Trail project we’re leading for Snohomish County. So much excitement and positivity about the project and great insight from community members. Will connect Everett to City of Snohomish. Learn more here: snohomishcountywa.gov/6251/Snohomi...

Jesus detained and separated from Mary and Joseph by ICE and kept in cages outside of Seattle.

Deep Sea Diver was incredible last night at the Paramount!

Happy Stranger Things Day for those of you that celebrate!

I love this video about the art that was incorporated on the Pike Pine project and how important it is to the experience travelling the corridor www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmsf...

New: Google has chosen a side in Trump's mass deportation campaign. Google is hosting a CBP facial recognition app to hunt immigrants; no indication Google will remove. At same time Google takes down apps for reporting ICE sightings “Big tech has made their choice” www.404media.co/google-has-c...

In Mountlake Terrace City Council position 1 race Sam Doyle is now only 3 votes behind Rick Ryan after being down 230 election night.

Every now and then I go back and read the Citizens United ruling to see if it is as unhinged as I thought, and every time I do that I see it is actually far more deranged than I remembered. levernews.com/book

Spreading the AASHTO Bike Guide gospel this week with a conference session and tour at the ASCE National Conference in Seattle and a training in Spokane.

@djjohnrichards.bsky.social killing it this morning with the last 3 songs. Great way to end the week/start the weekend!

Cartoonist Jesse Duquette honored the guy who escaped ICE on his bike with a new cartoon.

I find it deeply disconcerting the way they keep “teasing” the big info they have on autism. If there was a real scientific breakthrough, they wouldn’t wait. This isn’t about science, it’s about discriminating against neurodivergent people. It’s eugenics.

In light of today’s news I’d like to remind you that this is a real newspaper clipping. History repeats itself when we don’t stop it.

Apologies if you see my folks blocking bike lanes on Pike and Pine today. Trying to be courteous. Having a photo shoot!

"In DC a pilot (banning right turn on red) at 74 intersections led to a 92% reduction in failure-to-yield incidents and a 97% drop in vehicle conflicts" Why cities like DC, Raleigh, Ann Arbor, Cambridge & Seattle are rethinking right turn on red @schlthss.bsky.social tooledesign.com/insights/202...

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Fun project for the City of Bothell with one of my favorite collaborators @bmaryman.bsky.social. Replaced pandemic-era eco blocks and road closed signs with these removable bollards. Also fixed up some broken and heaving sidewalk sections to improve accessibility downtown.

What this article neglects to say is that Redmond is rolling out *FLOCK* license plate readers. 404 Media reported that ICE has been tapping into the Flock data network. Unclear from this reporting if the City of Redmond has instituted additional data privacy protocols given this information.

Hard to believe this photo I took from the gondola earlier today is real. Spokane is such a beautiful city. 🤩
