Hippos, urban wildlife, unions, hobbies, nice people. Here for funny jokes, and to see that the rest of the world is up to.
He's thoroughly butchered funding for every program that helps foster kids, so it scares me to see what will get cut next if those are "unimportant". Treehouse. Dolly Parton's Imagination Library. Pediatric Interim Care Center. The rich will be fine, just tax them!

Foster care. He's apparently "fixing" that next.

SDOT knows the project is stupid and they want to make sure everyone else knows how stupid it is too. "This will improve circulation for the three people driving in this exact spot." westseattleblog-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/2025...

Mandatory Housing Affordability. Basically, developers can either include a number of affordable (below market rate) units when they build a new housing complex, or they can pay a fee that goes into a fund that builds affordable housing in the same area.

Can we also talk about how stupid the district boundaries are? Poor Georgetown and South Park, being lumped into District 1. Not just because Saka represents them, but because everyone sees District 1 as West Seattle. Candidates can ignore half the district and still have the votes to win.

Yeah, at this point, there's really nothing that can redeem him, even if his vote did make a difference. I drove by the new Delridge triangle turnaround today. It's even more ridiculous in real life than in the SDOT drawings. He's an idiot.

I'm a foster parent and I can say with certainty that some moms should NOT breastfeed for the health and safety of their newborns. And I can also tell you many of those moms will hear this and start breastfeeding to prove to the court what "great" parents they are for avoiding formula.

Ugh, Chicago too? Seattle gave the cops a huge pay raise, and now we have rolling library closures because we don't have the money to pay for everything.

Because I have a 3-year-old and I need either daycare or preschool to be open, lol

West Seattleites, still 100% over Rob Saka. Luckily he loves himself enough for everyone, because literally no one supports him and his asinine crusade. At all. westseattleblog.com/2025/12/also...

"Liberals" are Schrodinger's political faction. At once weak, ineffective, needing safe space, and also violent terrorist thugs, ready to throw down anywhere, any time.
