I really want to know what the coherent angle of attack here is supposed to be.

Is it that Wilson is out of touch? Her living situation now undermines this

Is it that Wilson won't follow through? Her political wins undermine this.

New records provide more detail than ever before on what was happening in the six months between a packed community meeting and an announcement that safety upgrades on Lake Washington Boulevard would be dramatically scaled back.

Metro plans to budget an additional 30,000 service hours to weather the impact of Revive I-5 construction closures, ON TOP OF an additional 24,000 service hours to help bus routes that it expects to continue getting stuck in worse traffic.

(Where are those bus lanes, Seattle?)

We should save money and not build the spine if this is how Federal Way is going to act.

A terminal case I'm afraid

I've seen* Bruce Harrell in Columbia City.

* I saw his blacked out Chevy suburbans which he entered without interacting with any people

This is such a deranged interview

"She went to Oxford as a physics major, right? So progressive."

Lol, what even is Harrell doing?

"you do some really good work, and I think you’re good at what you do."

This is literally the second sentence of the first answer Harrell gives. How is this man seen as affable?

Seattle Mayor Harrell has repeatedly mocked his opponent, Katie Wilson, for saying she wants to add 4,000 new shelter beds over four years. Meanwhile, his administration was wasting millions keeping available hotel rooms empty.

Bruce Harrell and the people around him are all extremely bad at their jobs

Three people on e-bikes use the Columbian Way protected bike lanes.

I'm seeing so many more people biking in SE Seattle. Hard fought wins to get protected bike lanes are making a difference in how people get around.

There's also basic unprovable statements passed off as factual: "Voters soundly rejected [defund the police] in both 2021 and 2023 by choosing candidates who advocated for more police and stiffer enforcement of low-level crime."

No one ran on defund in 2023

Dawn Mason says "We need to not make this emotional", but who is making this emotional? Katie Wilson is a policy wonk who often looks kinda uncomfortable being the center of attention.

For example: Kroman summarizes Chris Persons' comment as "progress [on housing] under Harrell has been good lately"

This is presented as a fact, despite... simple facts like Harrell's comp plan delays, tanking housing permits

I asked my wife to read this piece without providing her any of the bsky criticisms and she keyed in on how critically every claim that makes Wilson look good is treated vs how every claim that makes Harrell look good is treated as if it doesn't need to be fact checked.

Location on a map

One hour ago, Seattle Fire responded to a driver hitting someone on a bike at 15th Ave SW and SW Henderson Street, near Westwood Village.

The 50-year-old cyclist who was hit was transported to the hospital with significant injuries.

Sorry (not sorry) to be a broken record, but if you care about Bellevue and want it to have a better transportation system, you should definitely make time to be here this Saturday!

There'll even be free food! Why would you wanna miss out on free food?

Katie Wilson’s Seattle mayor race: What to know about Harrell’s rival

Screenshot of current headline

Why did the Times Headline writers include Bruce Harrell's name in the Wilson piece, but didn't include Katie Wilson's (the Mayoral Primary winner) name in the teased Harrell piece

Lol, I wonder if the Seattle Times headline writers have a point of view about this race 🤔

Something I do not think that older people seem to get is that a lot of people that are reaching peak entry-level politics age graduated into the aftermath of the 08 recession and underemployment was just the reality of that job market.

A Times profile of Katie Wilson being highlighted in an email. "Katie Wilson shrugged off the idea she might be better suited for a City Council seat, instead aiming for Mayor"

This is so incredibly condescending from the Seattle Times. Do you also ask male candidates if they'd considered running for an "easier" office?

We've been piloting having a traffic diverter on my Capitol Hill Street all week, and it's been working out great. I'd love to know how to use this data to make it permanent.

We could have nice things if we had a mayor that wanted them

Last year @seattledot.bsky.social posted a simple request for Trick or Streets on the SDOT Blog on September 20th, there's nothing for this year yet, which I hope is just an accidental oversight.

Google maps showing the intersection from the video screengrab.

I think the other thing is it's just like this is the whole applying European designs out of context... why is there a fully protected bike intersection at a space constrained minor arterial and residential intersection.
