"An entire lane of solo drivers on Denny Way between Seattle Center and I-5 can fit into one articulated Route 8 bus, and a dedicated transit lane would allow that bus to be over four times faster than driving along this section" — @cmtmosqueda.bsky.social Cars just don't scale well in cities.

Social media touch language needs more than a Heart. We need something to thumb that says, I’m so glad you posted this but it’s hard to love.

How much time has to pass to get regretful of all our public earnestnesses. Also, it’s sad we don’t have a book in the world, entitled: Earnestnesses

If you’re on the Hill tonight go listen to my pal Dj Night Knocks spin some wonder space to feel into. Trust me, it’s a good way to be out.

Everytime I come to Seattle now, I think…if I never see another Henry creature mural again, that’d be too soon. Seattle’s new waterfront is so beautiful but all the businesses and such are garish in their design. It’s sad. All this beautiful work plastered with cartoons.

Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, 412 women have been arrested for pregnancy related prosecutions. Since the release of the Epstein files there have been 0 arrests.

Huh. Toke up, olds.

I'm sure there's some crack also in that pot

So good!

but seriously...who are those robot dudes in the clouds!?!

I saw the best minds of my generation produce high quality content for startups that laid them off on a zoom call

Here a grandmother is forced to do a gig job with no job security because she can’t afford to retire? What are we celebrating here?

I’ll have what Hungary’s having.

Washington's problems are bigger than our short #WALeg sessions can address. Not only that, but when you make lawmakers part-time and underpaid, you ensure that only the independently wealthy can hold office. How about a trade? #WALeg works full time for us & they get paid a normal wage.

Just because a President announces he’s agreed to a two week ceasefire moments before he threatened to commit war crimes, does not mean he is suddenly fit to serve. #25thAmendment

Thune should immediately call the Senate back into session. Trump’s unhinged threats to commit massive war crimes against Iranian civilian targets show an increasing mental and moral instability we can’t ignore.

It is very easy to become accustomed to Trump’s ravings, and laugh them off. That’s a dangerous thing to do. When Trump states: “A whole civilization will die tonight,” he is threatening to commit genocide. We can’t allow that to happen. Congress must end this war NOW.

Trump's genocidal threat against Iran is one of the most vile and dangerous things an American president has ever done. https://bit.ly/4caL50a

If the Iranians really want to fuck with us they should offer to open the straights in return for Trump’s resignation.

Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-Ariz.) is introducing articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth over his role as “a chief enabler of this illegal war” in Iran. www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

I haven’t seen my mother since 2012. We only text. Initiated by her at random. I also never know if it’s her texting me or her husband. I imagine this is what using a really bad AI meant to ‘care about you’ feels like.

There are two kinds of writers: writers who know exactly what they want to write about, and then write; and writers who discover that birds have sub-atomic magnet particles in their eyes to correspond with the earth’s magnetic compass so now they need to change their whole book to fit that fact in

Rainer Maria Rilke, from a letter featured in Letters to Merline: 1919-1922

Is the world really going to have to burn because the USA can't impeach a president?

If you want Bluesky to be good you need to be weirder

Nice to wake in the city sometimes. Especially when your gracious pals provide for you a wonderful dinner, vulnerable conversation, and a bed for a couple nights. And oh, yeah, their view!!!

WHOA. Lewandowski is accused of demanding fees from a private prison company to steer them ICE contracts, at a time when he was widely known to be running DHS on Kristi Noem's behalf, then punishing them when they didn't pay up. Congress should conduct a full and bipartisan investigation into this.

She simply does not pull punches. "Any regimes that need changing, including the US, Israel, & ours, need to be changed by the people, not by some bloated, lying, cheating, greedy, resource-grabbing, bomb-dropping imperial power & its allies who are trying to bully the whole world into submission."
