Elon Musk approaches your door; he is followed by a robot.

He knocks, and a red light on the robot turns on, indicating it is recording and ensuring Musk complies.

You answer the door, and Elon begins saying, "I am legally obligated to inform you that..."
in a long life filled with saying stupid shit this is may be the stupidest shit he's ever said

Just used a kiss and ride to get to the Bainbridge Ferry Terminal because BI's bus system is virtually nonexistant

Tesla's board chair confirmed that the automaker may give the Cybercab a steering wheel after all. It may need to to sell the purpose-built robotaxi in the kind of volumes it hopes to.

To be charitable, it's possible that Jonathan Choe literally does not know about candidate disclosure forms. But most likely, he's lying his dumb ass off like he always does. (Also, how does ME paying someone else bias me TOWARD them?)

e.g. if you're a young dude immersed in certain social circles there is a decided sense that Trump is the cool candidate and cool guys support Trump, and only weird woke libs would vote for Harris or Democratic. especially if you're less attentive to politics this social dynamic is determinative

I was the only person to show up to push back on this -_-

Please keep in mind that if you cant make it to the council meeting, you can provide comment over zoom
I am speaking to the council today at 2PM in opposition to this, anyone who can show up and speak please do
Rob Saka wants to take money *directly* from transit service funding to pay for a new "Chief Transit Security and Safety Officer" at the City of Seattle.

That's despite the fact that King County is directly in charge of many of the things this new position would be trying to direct.

ICYMI: Katie Wilson responds to Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell's latest attack. Harrell, whose net worth is over $15 million and whose résumé shows he hasn't had to apply for a job since 1990, accused Wilson of being rich because her parents have helped her pay for child care in unaffordable Seattle.

If you were thinking of calling in or going to city hall tomorrow morning to give public comment to the budget committee the first time these are discussed...no you won't, because yet again they are not taking public comment directly from the public at this kind of meeting.

So prepare your emails.
The full list of proposed SDOT budget amendments just dropped.
