Rick Steves is a genuine hero.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Yeah we’ve invented this new thing called “shuffle your library”, it requires half the power grid and dumps 69 gallons of contaminated water directly into your towns aquifer

Before Obama took office, a lot of Dems in office condemned all manner of things the Bush Admin did. When he took office they dropped it all.

Seattle mayor-elect (almost) Katie Wilson, welcome to The War on Cars.
"Katie Wilson does not own a car and primarily rides the bus (public transit) to get around Seattle with her daughter." -Wikipedia

She walks the walk (literally) and is calling out the grifters. 🥳

And so great to hear Mamdani defend the trans community and so many of the types of people Democrats think we need to throw under the bus to win.

This is why we need to vote out corruption. 👇

This is why Seattle can’t move forward….it’s the constant shady sh*t that our Mayor Bruce Harrell is saturated in - it’s his playbook instead of competent calm leadership.

Decades of cops being allowed to lie about traffic crashes, arrests, etc. with impunity — and often having those lies laundered through the press — have brought us to this moment where even when ICE agents are on camera they still think they can create their own reality.
ICE GOONS crash into car and then point weapons to kidnap man.

It’s happening because Americans refuse to hit the streets to stop it. They have ball games to go to or watch on TV, movies to see and restaurants to dine in. It’s happening because people refuse to surround these NAZIS by the thousands and millions. Don’t give a fuck but they will when it’s them!!

Reposting this in a more constructive matter to simply point out that people who have vocally expressed clear white supremacist, transphobic, sexist, racist, and generally nazistic views, such as David Heinemeier Hansson, are not and never will be internally consistent and operate on cowardice.

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social I just cannot emphasize enough how poorly your endorsement of Harrell comes across, and how thoroughly uninformed it shows you to be on Seattle politics and the broader progressive movement here.

I am horrified to learn that Muhammad Zahid Chaudhry was detained by ICE during a scheduled immigration appointment. While we’re still waiting for details, it’s not lost on me that Zahid and Melissa have been outspoken in their advocacy for Palestinian people.

i give this advice out of love: if you hate a bad thing and want to see a world where it’s not causing more harm, you have to stop using and empowering it. simply being mad on bluesky is not going to do anything but pass the time - and time is a limited resource
