Uninstalling Bluesky due to the rapid shift towards anti-trans, anti-sex work, & overall right-wing behavior by the people running the platform. If you'd like to still find me, I'm on Mastodon union.place/@AshtonHope

@bsky.app fuck J.K. Rowling, she's a feminist appropriating radical transphobe, & marginalizing queer folks to protect her ego has me setting up a Mastodon account!

Establishment Dems will cater to anyone except the people that are further left than them.

Seattle’s police union just made its first city political donation since 2020. Their pick: City Attorney Ann Davison. The $350 check is the max any individual can give under the voucher system. Her opponent Erika Evans is leading in votes and cash and says she’ll undo SPOG’s agenda.

Pedestrianized streets let kids be kids (and let parents relax a little)

I think most western countries don’t have a housing crisis at all, they have an asset price crisis 😅 and too many people vote like they’re temporarily disgraced millionaires, rather than to tax wealth hoarders #comic #comics #webcomic

Flock's nationwide license plate tracking system is bad enough, but now the company is also analyzing our driving patterns to determine if we’re “suspicious." This is a privacy nightmare that will only lead to racial profiling in policing and misidentify people as dangerous.

I'm sorry Congresswoman. You can't simultaneously declare your objection to sweeps while also endorsing a mayor in your own city who has aggressively swept your constituents and slow-walked any meaningful expansion of services. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Time once again to hit 'about:config' and make sure that 'browser.ml.chat.enabled' is toggled to 'false' (along with some other options in 'browser.ml.chat' if you feel comfortable doing so).

Post updated to reflect that SPD told me to file a records request for an answer to my yes/no question: Did a new deputy chief and assistant chief, who each make around $300,000, get $50,000 hiring bonuses for joining the department? publicola.com/2025/08/12/p...

"Russia and the United States have discussed Israel’s occupation of the West Bank as a model for ending the war in Ukraine" “Ukraine will never give up its sovereignty. But the reality is it’ll be occupied territory and the model is Palestine.” An abomination.

The first drag performer in Seattle to star in a staged reading of this court transcript will become a legend.

“At press time, Harrell said he appreciated the offer but also that Katie never had to worry about any fight over the parking spot because she’s not pregnant.” goddamn Needling came to play today

Hey, so, TOTALLY not suggesting that RFK Jr. BACKS DOWN when we PUSH BACK, BUT if you’d like to call… HHS Toll-Free: 1-877-696-6775 HHS Direct Line: 202-690-7000 PLEASE share and consider calling your senators and representatives as well. NONE of this is okay. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Tonight, we got results that were even better than we hoped, and it’s likely to only get better. Seattle, you showed up! It’s clear that voters want change. This is your city. Join the campaign, and let’s get this done!

Mayor Harrell's best strategy is to never mention Katie Wilson, since the more people learn, the more people like her. Name awareness is Harrell's biggest asset.

Sen. Maria Cantwell Wishes All the Best for Palestinians She’s Approved Funding to Kill: tinyurl.com/4fkckbnj

NEW: For the first time, a majority of Democrats supported resolutions to block weapons sales to Israel, even @PattyMurray finally flipped. But @SenatorCantwell sided with the Dem minority, Republicans, and with genocide. www.theburnerseattle.com/post/majorit...

By a vote of 27-17, Senate Democrats voted to stop sending arms shipments to a Netanyahu government which has waged a horrific, immoral and illegal war against the Palestinian people. The tide is turning. Americans don't want to spend billions to starve children in Gaza.

THIS IS HUGE! The FIRST 100% effective HIV PrEP drug, Lenacapavir, is APPROVED AND GOING GLOBAL. The makers are providing AFFORDABLE access to the drug in the United States AND beyond, signing ROYALTY-FREE licensing agreements with SIX generic manufacturers to produce AND supply it. 🧪🧵⬇️

Daniel Strauss' amendment to restrict public comment to 30 seconds if there are more than 60 public commentors has been unanimously accepted. Looks like Rob Saka won't be able to make public comments anymore.
