"Car-Free on LWB" #doomloop #seattle

If I told you ten years ago all of the Jeopardy winners, doctors, lawyers, stat-focused sports nerds, and premium shitposters escaped Twitter on a pirate ship to a website that was completely inhospitable to Nazis and phrenologists……. I don’t know, man, I’d be pretty excited.

For the love of the game

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

an rmi guide set a record by going from the paradise parking lot to the mount rainier summit and back in 3:43 last week, a week after he broke the mailbox peak record as a warmup www.seattletimes.com/life/outdoor...

Grid-scale batteries are going in an absolutely wild pace. Every whingey objection to renewables you've ever heard is basically solved by batteries. This is happening whether any of the hopeless dipshits running the US want it or not.

i’ve been thinking of what could even be said about such a tragedy. someone said it best that trans people are “born so late and die so young”. we uproot our lives and transition and live more life than anyone else ever does and society punishes us for it. we deserve better

Let this radicalize you

Reading the FT front page story about a Chinese company introducing a battery with a 1500 km range & six minute recharging time & about how two Chinese companies own more than half of the global EV battery market & I am struck by the different realities the US and China occupy. We’ve lost the plot.

This is really all they have left. "We have a pointless and criminal war pushing gas prices through the roof and the global economy to the brink but at least the government isn't treating trans people like they're human beings" will be the entirety of the midterm message.

Sports gambling should be legal but you should have to go to an actual building to do it and it should be so off-putting and sad you’ll never want to do it again

worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.

You know the news is bad when “Get Your War On” starts trending

This is cool, now how about statehood

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo 😂 (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before) Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DTQrTqZ...

One of my prize possessions is a copy of Amazons signed by Don DeLillo. The existence of pro women’s hockey in Seattle combined with the Heated Rivalry discourse make it even sweeter. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazons...

Never had an AOL address, otherwise ran the table. Also, it’s “mix tape”

”im betting on the next boat strike with kalshi“ what if i beat you to death with my bare hands man

Has anyone written a coherent, good-faith argument *against* a ban on stock trading by members of Congress, or in favor of the status quo? What is the argument lawmakers use when explaining why they don't want a vote on the matter? Having trouble finding.

I’ll say it straight: It is unbecoming, undignified, cowardly, and shameful for a institution as revered and respected as the University of Virginia to grant an audience in 2025 to those who are committed to destroying science, free thought, human rights, and the rule of law.

“I’m strong and I want to have like fifty kids and a farm” of course you do. You’re twelve. “I don’t want to eat vegetables I think steak and French fries is the only meal” hell yeah homie you’re twelve. “Maybe if there’s crime we should just send the army” bless your heart my twelve year old buddy

An unsatisfying term I’ve been thinking through to make sense of this is “postpolitical.” The right looks for that one signifier to prove the shooter was a leftist, the left hopes for proof he was a right winger, and so on. But for these kids don’t use signifiers that way (1/)

He has kept among us in times of peace Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution & unacknowledged by our laws.

Didn't hear a single freaking gas powered leaf blower while I was in Europe, either

Just going to reiterate that in 2016 Trump inherited the lowest murder rate of any president in 50 years. He set reality aside, gave his “American Carnage” inaugural address, and was then the first president in 30 years to leave office with a higher murder rate than when he started.

Would 100% watch a sitcom in which Cuomo and Dershowitz end up roommates, Dershowitz is denied a pierogi every episode in exactly the same way, and Cuomo runs for successively lower-stakes office each week, only to lose again.

Nothing— and I mean nothing— about this decision is more than the bare desire to harm.

it took me awhile to realize this but when I ask my 10yo semi verbal autistic daughter how her day was she'll sometimes do the David Byrne "same as it ever was" gesture from the Once in a Lifetime video to let me know nothing important happened and I fucking love that

Have you ever bought a record twice by accident (“this is cool, I should get this” followed by “wait a minute I already own this”)? I got too excited and pre-ordered two copies of @coryhanson.bsky.social’s new album “I Love People.” Gifted one to a friend and we both love it!
