the nuzzi story is fun and all but at the center of it is the elevation of a man who has dedicated his life to making children catch preventable diseases to a position where he can enact harm at enormous scale
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

These articles always depend on a bizarre Schroedinger's Seattle: The city is falling apart due to progressive overreach but we should have re-elected the conservative non-socialist who has been in charge for the last four years.

They showed up and dominated the comprehensive plan process flooding the planners with cries to go bigger. So many showed up they didn’t have seats for everyone. The mayor and his staff ignored them and lied on the outreach to water it down. Turns out that was an unelectable strategy.
This is a great speech by @mayorofseattle.bsky.social Harrell. He identified that a huge number of new young voters showed up and made the difference. "Young people are saying they do not think their voices are being heard." He encouraged his supporters to embrace new ideas from new leaders.

This is about as sick and cruel as it gets. This policy is in place to stop grocery stores from OVERCHARGING people using SNAP.
The Trump administration, while it illegally withholds SNAP benefits, is telling grocers they can't offer discounts to people on SNAP.
The Trump administration, while it illegally withholds SNAP benefits, is telling grocers they can't offer discounts to people on SNAP.
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

This really is it. If you live in a metro area with an inelastic housing stock you will see no benefit from low unemployment and higher wages, you'll just see higher housing prices. No progressive economic project can work until housing is fixed.
I am stubborn I still think Bidenomics was correct and it worked! People experienced lifestyle creep and depression, and/or lived in NYC where housing costs genuinely got untethered for completely separate reasons!

My ex (not a Nazi) got me (same) a custom Seahawks jersey 10+ years ago with my name and 88, my birth year (like everyone else on this site I am in my late 30s). When Trump got elected and all the Nazis started throwing 88s around, know what we did? Agreed it would be best to NEVER WEAR IT AGAIN.

Absolutely nothing weirder to me than not viewing Palestine and Ukraine as analogous in their respective brutalization at the hands of repressive, violent occupiers. But I have to go finish making some broccoli
Because the pro-Palestine flag crowd (1) cheered the 🇷🇺 invasion of 🇺🇦; (2) cheered the October 7 massacres; and (3) voted for Trump out of “spite.” Just writing what I observed.
