Yo @washingtonpost.com this is embarrassingly bad and you should feel bad for running it. It is not news. It serves no good purpose. It makes you look ridiculous. Fucking hell.
This is nuts!

Why is WAPO writing up anyone’s speculation about who the suspect might be?

I get that Laura’s statements and actions are at times newsworthy given her influence on Trump, but no one’s speculation — outside of a government official’s — should be written up this way.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

I’m just a small-town political scientist, & it’s still relatively early, but it appears that The Actual Democrats did not Need To Do any of the Things or Learn any of the Obvious Lessons that Ezra Douthglesias said they Must Do & Learn.

The Needling reminds me of the heyday of The Stranger. Only more consistently funny than we were able to pull off back then.
After KUOW reported the scandal that Seattle mayoral candidate Katie Wilson’s parents pitch in on childcare costs as she campaigns, today incumbent Mayor Bruce Harrell argued that this city needs to be led by someone so rich they can afford to forget their own child even exists.

I resent the Blue Jays for defeating my beloved Mariners, but the funniest thing that could happen in our current timeline is a Canada team beating an American team in maybe the most American sport.

Mariners are one win away from the World Series. First time in my life I’ve been able to say that.

I think we should all be aware that if the Seattle Mariners actually make the World Series the world may, in fact, end.

Sinners box office discourse was bad. One Battle After Another discourse is the terrible sequel.

We’re currently living in a world where the guy who started his career on The Man Show is now a sane and courageous and important voice in America.

As a lifelong Seattle sports fan, I'm not used to all this winning as of late.

Holding my breath for a revised "Harper's Letter" given all real fucking threats to free speech happening right now.

Both kids made it out of the house on time for the first day of school today. Only minor injuries reported, mostly from parents.

We’re being governed by monsters. Just absolute monsters.
She was brought to the US as an 8yo, worked hard, studied, earned a scholarship, planned to become a nurse.

ICE kidnapped her. Held her for 6 MONTHS in a detention facility with conditions so miserable that she finally agreed to voluntarily move to Honduras, which her family left at gunpoint.

I was willing to forgive Trump voters when he won the first time. Thought it was stupid, but maybe they were just misinformed or not paying attention. This second, more disgusting bite of the shit sandwich we're all forced to take? Fuck all the way off you absolute casseroles.

Given how everything is shaking out, the next Dem president (if there is one) should feel free to deport the entire Heritage Foundation to Uganda. Preferably bound and hooded.

I know this isn't at all important given the news right now, but I can't be alone in being surprised the Swift-Kelce relationship appears to be ongoing.

ATTN CAPITOL HILL! Blewett, famous porch sitter of 14th (you’ll often see him with his brother Snoqualmie), is missing. Check your basements and laundry rooms, where he has been known to frequent!

Stop electing stupid people and stop rewarding stupid media with your attention. That's the secret sauce, and America hasn't discovered the recipe yet. Hopefully we're working on it.

The first glimpse anyone ever had of “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” was when Jack Nicholson had to accept his BAFTA award for “Chinatown” on location in Oregon. I’m introducing a new 4K restoration of “Cuckoo’s Nest” Friday night at the Academy Museum.

I’d like to report that Seattle is calm as fuck right now. So when you see mayhem on the streets soon, you’ll know that Trump’s goon squad has arrived in force.
