Happy birthday to me! Katie Wilson (a Democratic Socialist) has won the race for Mayor of Seattle. Think your vote doesn't matter in a place like WA? She won by less than 2,000 votes! So happy for Seattlites tonight!
Katie Wilson wins Seattle mayoral race, incumbent Bruce Harrell appears to be preparing to concede

The exciting race for Mayor of Seattle can now be called. With almost no ballots left to count, challenger Katie Wilson has an advantage that incumbent Bruce Harrell cannot overcome.

folks can complain about the effectiveness of scheduled orderly mass protest but to think about it another way its the closest thing we have to the opening scene of A Muppet Christmas Carol where all the muppets sing "there goes Mr. Dipshit, there goes Mr. Ass" to Scrooge and it clearly bothered him

I wish ace headcanons were more a thing in fandom 😫 give me pairings with sex-averse aces, stone top aces, sex-favorable aces, aces realizing they're more greyace, aces figuring out what they are and aren't okay with when it comes to sexual intimacy, and everything inbetween!!!

Hi geeks! GeekGirlCon needs your help!

GGC has always been a home for geeks on the margins — a space to celebrate, connect, and belong. That space matters.

And it only exists because of you.

Since returning to in-person events in 2022, rising costs have made it hard for us to break even, 🧵

I think some people have trouble seeing fascism as anything other than 1940s Germany.

But I think 'people going to a comic convention needing to have a plan in case the government's goons show up to disappear people' is a pretty good demonstration of what it can look like in 2025.
