He thinks revenge is leadership and trolling is governance. Stop the #MadKing

the president’s policies will carpet bomb the economy and ruin millions of lives but don’t worry, he and his failchildren will come away from everything as rich as ever

We are at the point in history where Germany is having to lecture the US on the need to fight fascism.

Just deranged. This was a *solved* problem.

🔥They’re feeling the heat. The GOP just delayed their plans to gut Medicaid—because YOU spoke out. Because workers, caregivers, patients, families & elected officials like AOC are sounding the alarm on what cuts would mean for millions. WE MUST KEEP UP THE FIGHT—IT'S NOT OVER YET! #SaveMedicaid

No cars in Pike Place Market! How the 🦆 did it take so long. #Seattle #SeaBikes

Good Night World

April 28, 2025: Migrants are making SOS signs out of their bodies so drones can see them at our country's concentration camps.

I feel like @edzitron.com needs to talk with @volts.wtf about the giant pile of power that is being burned alongside the giant pile of money that OpenAI is setting on fire

Newsletter: I am sick and god damn tired of everybody pretending that generative AI is the next big thing. The media is complicit in accepting fantastical nonsense - both in the numbers put out by OpenAI and the silly jobs created by Anthropic - and it has to stop. www.wheresyoured.at/reality-check/

Tough choices for @wadems.org at #WaLeg

Never has the latter half of a headline more predictably followed from the former half.

Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

#ICYMI: Trump’s slashing of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health includes a team of workers who examined firefighter deaths. Probes into deaths at 20 fire departments are now unlikely to be completed, an investigator said.

"After putting a lot of thought into who we want to endorse for mayor, we here at Transportation for Washington are confident a man who once pointed a gun at a pregnant woman over a 'stolen' parking spot is the transit hero Seattle needs."

My latest for @liberalcurrents.com We need to stop listening to commentators who spent a decade being arrogantly wrong about the fascist threat www.liberalcurrents.com/trump-alarmi...

Q: What's the difference between RFK Jr and Autistic children? A: Autistic children have families who love them. #Autism #AutismIsNotADisease

There a too many things being taken away at the same time. Remember when Bannon said to flood the zone? That’s what they are doing. Rip 10-20 things away by EO & DOGE every week & citizens nor the news can keep up. MAGA probably doesn’t know about this or what it even means.

The CDC will no longer collect data on injuries caused by car crashes related to manufacturer's defects, and other defect-related injuries that don't result in crashes.

Me to everybody who accused me of being hyperbolic these past 20 years:

It's funny between the good weather and one of the Kent/Tukwila employers cutting the shuttle service the Sounder is very full of bikes. #SEABikes

Blue Cross had refused to pay thousands of claims for the center’s patients, but on several occasions executives at the insurance company had signed special one-time deals with the center to pay for their wives’ cancer treatment. By @tchristianmiller.bsky.social

The U.S. is the only major country on Earth that does not guarantee workers a paid vacation. When a husband, wife & kids are unable to spend any time together on vacation, that is not a family value. It's an attack on everything a family is supposed to stand for. Unacceptable.
