If the left was wrong, fascists wouldn’t hate them so much. Just saying. They want us all dead or behind bars because we are an actual threat to fascism. If the fascists aren’t terrified of you, what are you even doing?

Let’s do that here! @mayorofseattle.bsky.social @governorferguson.bsky.social Seattle needs funds to provide shelter and services for the homeless, funding for our parks, etc. Seattle shouldn’t run an austerity budget. 💰

Yes. This.

Well done, Seattle. Well. Done. Fascists are not welcome here. We must make sure they never forget it. We keep us safe.

If you’re a follower of mine in the United States, please take a look at the post below, and please consider sharing it. I presume it WON’T be covered in American media.

Yes indeed! Let’s put payroll taxes into an escrow until WA gets at least some of our needs met! States’ rights, right?

This is so important and such a great idea, Andy. When things around us have their own names - as opposed to being 'named for' someone - we are open to seeing relationships and dependencies. And we would be a richer and more balanced society if we did that.

This is a good summary of what the May Day action was about. But also inspiration, education, and wisdom. @cascadiadaily.com @cascadiarevolting.bsky.social @cascadiademocratic.bsky.social @cascadiabioregion.bsky.social Seattle Strike was a sponsor and participant in the May Day action in Seattle.

BIG TUESDAY! Come hang with us at overpasses, Tesla dealerships, and at Stoup Brewery for PINTS AND POSTCARDS on Capitol Hill. We're fighting for every vote and having a good time doing it. Join us! #seattle defundmusk.com/events

@irishrainforest.bsky.social Eoghan - This article discusses tropical forest recovery. Lots of discussion. But it concludes with the following: "Still, the research findings could help conservationists spend their dollars more wisely by

This is so spot on. This is at the core of the media imbalance in the US, Andrew. But I lack for a solution. I've heard people suggest that the left build an echo machine like the right has. But people on the left aren't as, well, gullible as those on the right. And echo machines don't work.

This guy just convinced me to buy an e-bike. Recommend good stores in Seattle and good e-bikes to me, please. 🚲

Thousands of workers are threatening to strike at the Los Angeles World Cup stadium. The SoFi Stadium plans to host two of the three US Men's World Cup matches, but now 2,000 cooks, servers, bartenders and more may strike. Their main issue? ICE being present at the World Cup.

The holy trinity right there.

The Artemis II crew is seeing impact flashes from meteors hitting the dark side of the moon. Incredible. The ground crew is jumping up and down.

I hadn't seen this before. This is pretty remarkable. Earth and Moon in one NASA photo. ht @astrokatie.com

I caught a flight out of Atlanta yesterday. The TSA check point was staffed by ICE agents. They were the ones checking IDs. I was trying to think of something to say, but only came up with cheeky or derogatory things that I didn't feel comfortable saying to anyone.

Saw this clump of Trillium on the north path of Ravenna Patk just now. Never noticed Trillium in this location before.

A coworker yesterday mentioned that she only found out we were currently in a war because she googled “why are gas prices getting so high”

Someone should get a message to whoever is in charge of the camera on the Artemis II mission to take a group selfie in front of the window while earth is in view and record the first ever "every human in existence is in this picture" photo Send them this skeet. They have Outlook. Email it to them🤣

Congratulations, @georgetakei.bsky.social !!! Seattle will read you book with gladness and respect for your life and work. www.seattletimes.com/entertainmen...

Sometimes it’s permissible to hate.

After many decades, voluminous subsidies, unbridled tax breaks, and gutting environmental regulations, the US fossil fuel industry has achieved their goal of “energy independence.” @cascadiadaily.com @cascadiademocratic.bsky.social @cascadiarevolting.bsky.social @cascadiabioregion.bsky.social

Say, here’s an idea: Let’s pass a Windfall Profits Tax on the oil companies. That’s what Nixon did in the seventies during the first oil crisis. We can at least recoup the money that the government is spending on our behalf attacking Iran. @murray.senate.gov @cantwell.senate.gov @jayapal.house.gov

Yes, it does, Brent! Economically disruptive for days or weeks. It's a General Strike. And we are working toward building one is Seattle right now. They are popping up everywhere! And we need EVERYONE! www.seattlestrike.org

ICE is not done in Minnesota. They have just gotten sneakier. Don't let them fool you.

@irishrainforest.bsky.social I just wanted to repost this St Patrick's Day greetings from a man who recognizes our solidarity, epitomizes our humanity, and sees the heroism and selflessness of the Irish struggle as a boon for all of us seeking a free, just, and peaceful world.

Exact same spot. Exact same time of year. Four years apart. Not a thing planted. The power of rewilding.

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors. My report:

I took an oath to defend our home's forests, water, air, and wildlife. this is very personal to me. If you can take action before tomorrow, our forests and wildlife would be grateful. Here are my comments for reference:

Late notice, but here we go. We ran out of room at our in-person meeting Jan31, so we're doing it again Thursday evening on Zoom. www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve... @cascadiadaily.com @cascadiademocratic.bsky.social @cascadiarevolt.bsky.social @cascadiabioregion.bsky.social

Well now, this is interesting. Mine too is an anti-ICE account. Let them come, better to die on my feet than live on my knees.

It’s already happened. Call for a nationwide strike. It’s time to end this shit.

Kudos to the people who put this sign up right at the start of the Seattle Seahawks Super Bowl parade.

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

If you live in WA, just do this! So easy! So important!
