Talk to text is killing me.

(Not to mention the inconvenience of the Thomas Street Bridge being closed and dead dinosaurs forcing me to walk my bike through the sculpture park.)

1) The Alaskan Way PBL is amazing! I may have just been dodging the closure signs and using it for a few weeks now - so happy it’s now official! 2) !$@&@!!!! the ill-timed closure of the Thomas Street Bridge makes the north end irritating for the next seven weeks…. 3) OMG SDOT IS FINALLY ON BLUESKY
Good news: the new Alaskan Way protected bike lanes opened for travelers today.

10:50am: Sysco truck parked in the new Alaskan Way PBL just south of Broad & the Sculpture Park. Cars wait here all the time too. 😒 @seattle.carinbikelane.com

Elliott Bay Connections Project is taking away this quality functional pedestrian connection to the waterfront (Thomas Street Bridge) for SEVEN weeks in the middle of the summer. Who asked for this? Thanks billionaires. 😒

Proud of my South Park neighbors for showing up to support our community! About 150 of us stood on the bridge to declare YES TO IMMIGRANTS and #nokings. (Lots of happy honks far outnumbering the few d*ckheads.) Meanwhile 70k marched downtown 🤩

Can anyone explain to me why this last block of the northern end of the Duwamish Trail/West Marginal PBL isn’t also protected bike lane? What, they get like three parking spots? Move the damn (illegal?) ecoblocks three more feet and slap on some paint, amiright?

The Georgetown to Downtown PBLs are essentially open and go from the Airport Way bridge over the railroad tracks to the south end of the SoDo trail. see map here: www.seattle.gov/transportati...

We rode the Georgetown to South Park trail AND the Georgetown to Downtown trail today: they were revelatory and felt perfectly safe with the 11yo! Our destination was Mello Fellos bike shop to see if she was ready for a bigger bike.

Rest In Peace David Hernandez. David was an employee at the Sea Mar health clinic in South Park for over 30 years. Then he was run over and killed in the crosswalk next to the clinic (14th & Henderson). The second fatality at this intersection in six months. South Park deserves safe streets for all.

My neighbor Robin finally got a reply from SDOT regarding their plan for improving 14th Ave S, where two neighbors have been killed by cars in six months. Email in images from Bill LaBorde.

WOW this is political leadership!
We’re fixing Atlantic Avenue! This is what a comprehensive community-led rezoning looks like 🏠

Another pedestrian has been killed at 14th & Henderson in South Park this morning. The last death there was just five months ago. @seattledot.bsky.social needs to work with @wsdot.wa.gov to slow people coming over 99 onto 14th NOW.

We have catnapped a stray fur beast and made her ours! Her name is Pistachio and glass now separates her from the songbirds. I am looking for recommendations for *actually sustainable* wet cat food: not “organic human grade ingredients” but ways to feed a carnivore lower on the food chain.

At the playground after, we met a family who happened to be visiting from Texas and asked about our signs - we had a good chat about how school vouchers are ruining San Antonio, and the mom shared this pic she happened to snap when they were up the space needle

He’s declared war on the legacy automaking industry.

He’s raising the price of new suburban homes.

He’s causing air travel bookings to plummet.

And oil executives increasingly DESPISE him.

Mr. President, your commitment to radical climate and economic policy really does astound me.
