Some federal employees are electricians who don’t check email like ever because they are busy being electricians omfg wtf

When we moved to NW WA 24 years ago we took a trip to to Vancouver w/ some friends visiting from TX and this completely drunk off his ass dude took one look at us and yelled, as his friend tried to put shoes on his feet, “fucking Americans! Go back to your native land!” 🇨🇦 🫡

A Northern flicker, a Steller’s jay, too many Juncos and Chickadees to count, and a Downy woodpecker are all in my backyard right now. Pretty cool.

It sucks that like 90% of maturing and becoming a better person is realizing what an asshole you were.

I was typing out a ranty text to a co-worker, just all kinds of mad, but then I heard a Chickadee belt out its song and I smiled so I felt like I should record it. Everything is awful so I want to cherish the beauty of a little bird’s song.

If you know federal government employees who are seeking help, please share this information. Mark is a professor at Stanford Law.

I just found this photo of me in the coolest shirt ever and my darling dog Elton (2010).

One of our neighbors shoveled our walkway because he is a nice and caring person. I recently read a June Jordan collection and “we are the ones we have been waiting for” comes to mind.

Pippa just had surgery on her left knee (the right knee was done in ‘23) and so many friends and neighbors are checking in to see how she’s doing and that makes my heart swell 🥺. (Oh, and also I am terrified of all of the *waves hand* awful things!)

My senators’ voicemail inboxes are full so I couldn’t yell at Cantwell or Murray today but I did yell at Rep. Larsen’s machine.

Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man

For #BlackHistoryMonth we're offering 40% OFF Haymarket Books on the Struggle for Black Liberation

“Can you repeat the part of the stuff where you said all about the things? Uh, the things?” Also, “up and at them.”

Well, they haven't fixed their hearts, so

please remember that cash, if you can give it, is always the best thing to give to the food bank if you can only give food please make sure it’s not the trash from your pantry, that it’s actually clean, unexpired, and something people can use

we never should’ve given power to the nerds. the jocks shouldn’t have it either. we must usher in the age of the goths

'The Office' was pro-office propaganda whereas 'Severance' is the realistic show about how being at the office makes you go insane

this is such a beautiful story

Seattle/PNW musicians and performers of all kinds - I'm putting together a benefit for LA on 2/16 at woodland theater, and we like to get a little weird with it. This is an open invitation for anyone looking to meet some new queer weirdos and perform for mutual aid. Reach out by DM

Oh, you’re an early riser? You think that’s cool? That’s how you get worms
