Seattle-based. Into building local progressive power. Opinions are mine
- America could have a civil war between republicans and democrats and it wouldn’t solve the problem. This is a class struggle situation. Eat the rich, not your neighbor with unaligned political views.
- Out: asking congress to do any damn thing In: cyberbullying the federal government into oblivion Happy National General Strike!
- I would love to play some high stakes poker with @schumer.senate.gov that’s my student debt forgiveness plan. The man has no game. www.reuters.com/world/us/dea...
- Reposted by JacobThis is a tipping point. - 61% have an unfavorable opinion of ICE (The Argument/Verasight) - 59% say ICE is too aggressive, up 10 points since July (Fox News) - 58% say ICE has gone “too far” (Reuters/Ipsos) - 55% have very little confidence in ICE (YouGov)
- Man, there was a point where I thought Marie Glusenkamp Perez was cool and I set up a small recurring donation to her campaign. We flipped that seat from red to purple but it’s like magenta at best, and I’m really not sure it’s worth picking up one house seat to have her “in our coalition”.
- SNL should read the room
- Trust in federal law enforcement is just impossible now. There is no redemption. They lie maliciously to cover their cold blooded murders. We have to start over from first principles. Primary any politician who tries to say otherwise, because they are tools of the fascist state.

- PSA: sometimes I like to remind folks that if you hold your thumb in the empty space just below the space button on your iOS keyboard it lets you manually move the cursor. Go on, try it.
- Convince me I’m wrong: corporations and their republican and corporate dem shills want climate change to occur in part to unlock resources and trade routes in the arctic.
- Is Bugonia an adaptation of How To Make Friends and Influence People?
- Great Blue Heron #birding
- Seattle on a sunny January day. Guess what else makes this photo unusual.
- Stephen Miller enjoyed the wrong parts of the Ghorman arc of Star Wars Andor.
- Weird question: is Greenland part of Europe?
- Oh no. I scrolled by something horrible and said it wasn’t real and moved on. This is not good.
- Is a pegasus a bird?
- January 2026: How is Greenland looking on Kalshi?
- Silly me, I thought a civil war would unravel society. We still go to work, buy groceries, pay rent and taxes. It’s just all more stressful and heartbreaking and infuriating and you might get disappeared or killed by federal agents.
- Someone 6-7ed me when I was walking home from work
- Does @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social have any events with children on her schedule this week?

- Look at those time stamps. It would appear that @cantwell.senate.gov has a social media manager who caught wind of the reddit post and scrambled to get this out. Senator Cantwell’s lack of leadership is disgusting. We just re-elected her.
- I’m taking the rest of the year off 👋
- My favorite Christmas was 25 years ago today. Best game
- I’m excited to work with Mayor-Elect Katie Wilson to make Seattle better!

- They demolished part of the White House so umm game night?
- If the government had intel on aliens we would have heard about it to distract us from the Epstein Files
- Canvass for Katie Wilson Saturday at 10! Replace the corporate incumbent with a renter who rides the bus. www.mobilize.us/wilsonforsea...
- USPS made a policy change earlier this year so that mail may not get postmarked the day it is picked up and this means that ballots sent on Election Day may not be counted. Vote as early as you can and use a ballot drop box. This won’t be fixed by 2026 or 2028. publicola.com/2025/10/03/p...
- Time to give comment to Seattle City Council 📢 tell them to vote yes and move forward with the proposed Crisis Care Center at the former Polyclinic on Broadway! It’ll provide emergency mental health and drug care, and it’ll make that part of Capitol Hill safer.

- I like the clear icons in liquid glass though I’m having to train my brain to find things again. It’s kind of like using greyscale to make your phone less appealing to look at and overuse.

- Hey Seattle 📣 you have a chance to stop the city from massively stepping up surveillance. The police don’t need to be able to track your every move outside of your apartment. One of the best ways to stop 🧊 from tracking you is to not collect the data at all.
- You didn’t get the email I thought about sending?

- Reposted by JacobMy bicycle was just stolen in Capitol Hill Seattle. Please keep an eye out for a small sized Salsa Vaya, green bicycle with a rear rack, steel fenders, dynamo hubs, 26” wheels. Parked at a bike rack at 15th and Pike. Saw my lock cut and thrown on the ground.
