What might not occur to you upon reading this headline is that, in other words, ICE is targeting gay men of color Every queer press org should be picking up this story

Ted Cruz wants you to stop talking mean about ICE because it leads to 'political violence' but Musk, Vance, Trump, and Nancy Mace wont stop inciting violence against trans people. Assailants in this story *cite Trump*. www.thestranger.com/news/2025/09...

Harrell’s campaign consultant had and repeatedly used a keycard to work INSIDE the Mayor’s city hall office this year. Major ethics violation to use city resources to run his re-election campaign!

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

Here is your Tuesday reminder!! 8 days until the deadline!! PLEASE TELL YOUR DEMOCRATIC REPS THAT YOU GIVE A SHIT ABOUT TRANS RIGHTS. This is not a drill. They are moving quickly.

I was thinking about this in relation to the faculty and staff being fired at universities and colleges and schools nationwide, but Mekka raises the real point--within the public sphere, your commentators? The people being shown up for are white men.

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him. I'm talking about something very different. Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired. Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to. But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

We need you to tell you friends, your family, heck, even your frenemies if they like doing art. We need ART for our ART CONTEST and we need your help to reach the ARTISTS so we can give them 500 DOLLARS!

Oh, they're totally going to blame the mothers for the existence of autistic people. It's eugenics wrapped in misogyny.

I find this darkly funny in my own way as an autistic person arstechnica.com/health/2025/0...

No particular reason

I think most of us DON'T want to engage with politics. I would much rather enjoy my little hobbies and obsessions, but I've spent my entire life with weird religious freaks trying to take away my rights and rich, powerful men hoovering up every bit of my personal welfare for themselves.

I see so many posts on various design reddits asking "what is this style" that I'm beginning to think it's just farming descriptions to train AI

I only ever see cis people talking about this 🙃

Literally the best thing about my neighborhood is that I have multiple eating/drinking places likely illegal under current zoning regs within a 10 min walk – including a deli that is literally a 1 min walk. It’s worse when you have to go further for things!

Sara “I’m pro-housing” Nelson, folks. Don’t forget this November.

I've got some extra copies of There Is No Place for Us, and I'd love to give away 5 signed books. Just repost, like, or comment to signal your interest. I'll pick names at random on Friday. Totally optional: feel free to share how the struggle for stable housing shows up in your life or community.

As an old who survived the 80s when many many did not: These fascist freaks are perfectly serious and now, like then, we will not let them win.

Will probably replace my smoking habit with CBD tinctures, even with a filter I can feel it if I do it too often. Maybe a monthly special smoke is more appropriate (full moon? 🌕👀)

amendment 102 is through and will be voted on individual amendments you can write council and tell them how bad this legislation is here. 1,400 letters in just over a day. actionnetwork.org/letters/amen...

If we're going to go with micro generations, we should have a special little one for people who watched Zoolander 10x when it came out on DVD and it warped your references for a decade

Every time I see and ad for AI stuff like Gemini or CoPilot or something it makes the person in the ad using the product seem like the dumbest person alive.

Fucking horrific to watch the governor, who is not an investigator, emerging every six hours to give live updates on whether or not the shooter was trans enough to murder your neighbors in revenge

The new iPhone is here so this is a reminder that Congolese children are forced to mine for cobalt and other minerals and extracts which are used by Apple to make your phone. Upgrading to a new one every time it’s released contributes to this exploitation of Congolese children. nocongonophone.org

I would love to design an album cover. Just putting that out into the universe. If you need a cute illustration or fun lettering for your music album, hit me up.

I'm honestly more hyped about getting a modded iPod from 2009 than I am about a new iPhone at this point. I am gonna keep my iPhone 15 for as long as I possibly can tbh.

Are you a deep wonk? Here’s a link just for you! #RezoneSeattle Who supports which amendments to the comp plan?!? Visit this link: oneseattleforall.org/amendments/

I’m concerned that this is going to be the first City of Seattle comp plan to get us sued for failing to meet our legal obligations for housing creation… guess we will see how much this will end up costing the taxpayers.

This thread will inspire you

Hey Bluesky why do *we* have 5k followers when @laresistencianw.bsky.social has 500? What are *you* doing to support and amplify the most impacted communities right now? How are you using your urbanist platforms on here?

My partner does use Google's podcast AI feature, but it drives me nuts. I think I figured out why – it's the back and forth between the voices. The AI just feels like it's just talking. Podcasts with real people have questions & answers between hosts that helps me understand the topic more

"Back in my day we dodged cars in the market and WE LIKED IT. Such a refreshing way to spend an afternoon after walking uphill both ways."

About 50 people are rallying outside Seattle City Hall to call on the city to build 500 units of new shelter from homeless people. Participants include many SHARE/WHEEL shelter residents as well as mayoral candidate Katie Wilson and city council candidate Adonis Ducksworth.

Hello 5.5k followers. If you live in Seattle please speak up and show up to the September 12th Comp Plan hearing and tell the Mayor and council you want to allow more housing types in wealthy areas of Seattle. Follow HDC on Instagram for more info.

I made a lovely coffee for myself today
