To end the post match press conference, we asked @reignfc HC Laura Harvey about how special Seattle is as a sports town, especially considering the years that the Storm, Mariners, and @soundersfc.com are having. Her answer⬇️ #SeattleReignFC #ReignTogether #NWSL #SeattleSports

😎🌵🪴 it matters

The neurodivergent experience of asking someone for feedback and genuinely wanting feedback and being frustrated when they just say “it’s great!” vs when they ask you for feedback and you invest time/energy in providing thoughtful feedback and they get upset you didn’t just say “it’s great!”

When people ask me what gives me hope, my answer is simple: you do. Every person who refuses to look away. Every lawyer who files a brief. Every protester who shows up. Every voter who refuses to surrender their rights. You give me hope—not because victory is certain but precisely because it is not.

BRAIN: omg we’re gonna have such a bad day today ME: wait why BRAIN: because I said so that’s why

BREAKING: In a win for public schools & educators, a court rejects Trump-Vance admin’s assault on public education as unconstitutional. This decision in our case proves the admin's attempt to weaponize federal funding & require compliance w/ their flawed interpretation of civil rights is unlawful.

Beast mode!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Nothing about Gunny Rose could disappoint me, but I was delighted by the events in this book with some unexpected twists and action (no spoilers). There's magic, gunfights, high stakes and high tea too. My only complaint is that I've already finished reading it. @sagapressbooks.bsky.social

"I learned that reality isn’t what we think. Reality as we know it is based on the concept that there’s only one world and only one “true” history. In actual fact, a long, long time ago, reality split into two during an event called the Great Rift." --Dissonace #Querying #Booksky #urbanfantasy

Change begins in unexpected places. First the parks, then the comedians. Who's next?

We’re posting about this now in hopes of drawing public attention to NOAA’s Atlas 15 project which was quietly shut down by the Trump administration before it could be completed. The work was nearly finished and could still be restarted if pressure mounts.

The more they tell us to stop talking about Epstein the more we need to talk about Epstein

Remember that one time ... @aoc.bsky.social @altnps.bsky.social @altdhs.altgov.info

The same people who say, "It's not a gun problem. It's a mental health problem," are cutting mental health funding.

#BannedBookSkyClub discussion of #TheLeftHandOfDarkness by Ursula Le Guin #BookSky Would you say The Left Hand of Darkness was revolutionary for its time? (first published 1969) Why or why not?

This is beyond horrifying. To my friends in MN, please stay safe.

Kristi Noem has that rare ability to shoot her dog in the face and it *still* not be the worst thing she ever did in her sorry, lying life.

Getting our signs ready for the weekend. #StoptheMadness #NoKings @indivisible.org

That feeling when you move away from South Dakota to avoid the Kristi Noem's of the world and suddenly they are everywhere.

We don't need your Natl Guard. We don't need your Bogus Beautiful Bill We don't need your ICE enforcement We don't need your DEI punishments We don't need your Oligarchy We don't need the Madness of King Trump. The West Cost generates a combined $5 trillion in GDP and we don't need MAGA - GO AWAY!

If you support drag story time, please call or email to compliment your libraries' programs. We get so many complaints, people yelling, cussing, calling names. The support helps counter that. It also tells us that people *want* these programs and gives us data to keep them going. #librarian #Pride

once again I must tap my own sign

Musk and Trump are a great example of why men are too emotional to lead.

Rewatching #Grimm and hoping they'll add some Portland bridge updates like water vessen preventing the I-5 bridge construction from starting or secret societies at food truck pods.

2028 campaign slogans will be rejected if featuring the words "again, back, better, or fix". We won't be able to go back to the ways things were--and perhaps we shouldnt. It's time to move forward, dream big, embrace change and explore a *new* interconnected world. #IfIRanforPresident #Momsky

Here are some good people to support making changes in small town middle America. It takes guts to stand up for change in a fire engine red state. @indivisible.org #altgov @governorwalz.mn.gov

Elbows up.🍁

If you've been seeing the photos of the lack of ship traffic in Seattle, don't mistake it for some distant port. They are talking about the area right the NFL/MLB stadium and there's typically a large ship on the horizon 24/7. My photos from multiple years + recent screenshot.

For the #BlueSkyArtShow #Earth Penguins from around the earth - Antartica, Africa, and Galapagos.

As a South Dakota Seahawks fan, I can't argue with the Grey Zabel pick, but West river is still better than east river. One of us! One of us!

I may have only 21 shares, but I checked the political donations of each board member in my portfolio before voting. Not one dollar to support this mess. #Poorsky #NeverAgain

Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.

Our voices are stronger when we howl together 🐺🐺

American police departments are spending hundreds of thousands on Massive Blue’s unproven and secretive technology that uses AI-generated online personas designed to interact with and collect intelligence on “college protesters,” “radicalized” political activists, and suspected traffickers.

We have to stop viewing people on the autism spectrum as broken.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

We are not some radical left paid protestors. We are the working moms, the single parents, the minivan driving spouses w/ soccer treats. We are the caretakers and the unpaid labor too. We are the sandwich generation and the unseen glue which ties our communities together. #Momsky @indivisible.org

“They were careless people…they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness…and let other people clean up the mess they had made…” -- F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby (April 10, 1925).

#FantasyIndiesApril Day 9 WIP: My characters fail to appreciate the sense of belonging that comes from small town origins. The problem w/ being from somewhere "everybody knows your name" is that everybody knows you - but it's not lonely. Thanks to @lvrussell.bsky.social @chesneyinfalt.bsky.social

To all who celebrate, don't forget the cupcakes. Brownies are for AFTER work. #RexManningDay

This is how cloning takes over. We begin cautious, we debate the ethics, it's all spooky and unnatural but then-- PUPPIES! All caution is now thrown to the wind and the 2028 core election issue discards red and blue to debate what to do Indominus Rex. #Direwolf #ChaosTheory
