My phone just told me I have listened to the max audio loudness limit for the last 7 days and that it’s time for me to get ready for bed. I’m wanting to rebel like my teenage self and then realize that I personally programmed my phone. Is this an example of both the Id and Ego?

I wore my secondhand cashmere from a Ballard thrift shop to keep me warm today.

Ah, Seattle Juneuary, where it’s not expected to even break 60 degrees today.

As a human and voter, I don’t care how many years you lived in seattle or what generation seattleite you are. I care about your values, vision, and compassion.

Brandi Carlile and so many more at The Gorge! Fab concert and camping experience!

Going to what I call Lilith Fair Redux: Brandi Carlile, Sara Bareilles, and Bonnie Raitt at The Gorge with Bailey and Karianne!

For those in Seattle, if you’ve ever wondered what Mayor Durkan’s “accidentally” deleted text messages during the George Floyd police riots might have shown, it’s this:

Totally rooting for NY Knicks for NBA champs! Socialist Seattle with our NFL champion Seahawks are all in for this kind of winning, both in sports and in life! NYC @mayor.nyc.gov @wilsonkatieb.bsky.social @mayorofseattle.bsky.social @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

Adjudicated rapist says what?

Note, Ballard is and has always been North of the Cut. Calling anything South of the Ship Canal as phase one of Ballard is not being honest. I’m looking at you, SoundTransit.

I resolutely told all sorts of friend all week that I was going to get house chores done this weekend. And then one friend invited me to a social picnic at Folklife tomorrow. I’m a joiner and biking to a hang with friends, nosh, and listen to performers at Seattle Center tomorrow!

Having fun in Marina del Rey! 🌞

Happiness is a pup, gelato, and a sunny Seattle evening.

Lawyer, Advocate, HR

I read Yesteryear and really would like to discuss with someone.

Summer wears a spring outfit

I read 42 books in 2026 so far. Likely the only thing keeping me sane in this time.

The perfect nepo babies don’t exi— Said with so much love for these two women and their tremendous talent! #ThePitt #IsaBriones #TaylorDearden #Alanis

The Mayor's Office just confirmed with me that the plan is for Bicycle Weekend closures to start around 7pm Friday night and extend through Monday morning. The days of one sunset ride along an open Lake Washington Boulevard per weekend look to be in the past.

This is huge: Katie Wilson's office just announced a significantly expanded schedule for Bicycle Weekends on Lake Washington Boulevard, after years of the program being stifled under Bruce Harrell. In addition to more weekends, we're getting our long holiday weekends back.

I listened to the #ChessMusical #Broadway album 5 times nonstop today so I guess you could say I’m a megafan. Also, in unrelated news, I have ADHD. I saw it twice on Broadway in November 2025. I saw it once in the West End in March 1987.

There are nepo babies and then there is Taylor Dearden, AKA Dr. Mel King, AKA Taylor Dearden Cranston, AKA Bryan Cranston’s daughter. I bow to the sheer talent of both. So impressed with both of them. Mind blown that they are related.

In last 2 years, I had to find and rent a Seattle apartment, (long story), deal with illegal things, pay rent/communicate on a shitty app, absorb 3 rent increases, navigate 3 corporations, and negotiate for a month just 60% of my deposit. I negotiate for a living and have been a lawyer for 20 years.

Oysters at Hama Hama for the first weekend of spring!

How old am I? I am “I took a class in college called the Information Superhighway” years old. I wish I was joking. I do wish I still had that hardback textbook that I’m sure cost $40+ back in the day—just for the current laugh value.

Forever grateful to The Wire, Friday Night Lights, and their excellent casting. Truly perfect. 🤩 Thank you.

NO NO NO YOU DON’T GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL tell everyone you know www.freetaxusa.com

It’s OUR time. Today I’m announcing my run for state senate in WA’s 43rd district because we know we can win a Washington we can all afford - but politics as usual won’t get us there. People-power & leadership as visionary as our district will. Learn more and join us at hannahforwashington.com.

I am sorting and purging my way through my house. I’m currently going through my tights. I have over 25 pairs of black tights. Apparently, before I went through leather bags, colored stemware, or cashmere sweaters phases, I went through a black tights phase. ADHD much?

I lived in NYC from March 97 to August 00. Love Story is again spotlighting that place and time. SATC first aired in June 1996, and I watched it each week in my Manhattan studio apartment. Wandering the City back then was the best. No cell phones. Just a MetroCard, Zagat’s, and paperback in my purse

At the @36thdems.bsky.social Town Hall. Senator @noelframe.bsky.social proclaimed: Blame Brad Smith of @microsoft.com for personally making it his mission to kill the WA Wealth Tax. There are things in the millionaires tax that make me widely uncomfortable. #waleg #TaxTheRich #WealthTax

Fourth night in a row when I watched episode 5 and fell asleep to the kiss and “I’m coming to the cottage.”

Go ‘Hawks! #Seahawks #Seattle I love that this jersey is more than half way to vintage.

A couple of Seattle inauguration fit pics. Three days celebrating four amazing women!

Thrifting is the best! This outfit (including shoes, vest, hat) was thrifted—mostly from a thrift shop 10 blocks from me. I’m not going to buy new (other than intimates) for the next 3 months. Hit me up if you want to go thrifting shopping together!

My pup and I wearing matching thrifted sweaters. Bring on 2026!

Do not put “how often to wash a hairbrush” into Reddit or any online search. I told you not to do it.

“You are not alone, Katie Wilson.”

Happy to be in the presence of some super-stylish ladies @summerstinson.bsky.social @etcrone.bsky.social at Katie Wilson’s inauguration. #shoepic

My favorite new year’s news? Learning that two brilliant besties scored amazing jobs after long searches!

47th and 50th. And governor Ferguson wants to raid half a billion dollars from the carbon tax and use it to balance the budget.

Ready for 2026!

I started off as a theatre kid. And now, apparently, I’m a radical left scum. I’m a socialist who loves our environment, learns from history, and honors community. Call me what you will. It’s about the values and not labels.

People who want to get morally superior about how they hand-wash everything really gotta reckon with the fact that machine dish-washing uses considerably LESS water and emits considerably fewer greenhouse emissions than standard handwashing practices do. (And you save a lot of time...)

Does it save time to wash dishes by hand? No. But is it better for the environment? Also no.

I’m “I wear compression socks when I fly” years old.

They're trying to squeak one more Harrell Administration priority through before the end of the year: allowing huge-ass corporate signs on skyscrapers in Downtown Seattle. services.seattle.gov/Portal/Cap/C...

This entire weekend

Oh look, I bought the Elphaba sex cardigan for $32 two months ago.
