I took it on Sunday and the difference between 10 and 5 minute frequency felt huge. In the past you'd show up having just missed a train and it felt like forever. This is truly a game changer.

The drunk uncle theory.

You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

agree with this (hah) but also think a particular mistake the left made for a long time online, and still makes to an extent, is failing to understand that the person whose mind you may actually change is the one reading the argument you're having, not the one you're arguing with

Left is North

Right is North

"BUT TRAFFIC KEEPS GETTING WORSE!" No it doesn't. Average daily trips on the Aurora Bridge, 2004 vs. 2023, dropped by more than a third. Similar decreases across Seattle.

My thoughts on Stephen A Smith potentially running for president are:

Could we please stop fucking electing celebrities and get back to the business of running the country with boring people who just want to do a good job.

Thanks

Today is like a full transit line grand opening but only for the absolute biggest transit nerds in the region.

Oh only someone almost running over some people and a dog because they couldn't wait five seconds. Taken from my dash cam this morning. In the Maple Leaf neighborhood in Seattle.

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

How utterly embarrassing.

It’s not the pilot’s job to remember cosplay Barbie’s blankie.

Denny Way without cars.

Walking, biking, and transit got a million people downtown yesterday but let’s fill the streets with cars again and pretend it never happened.

an axios .com headline: “a year into Trump‘s term, vote voters say Biden was better”

This could finally do it. 🤞

Entitlement galore.

This is crazy.

Why the fuck did she have a list of the Epstein files that Jayapal accessed?

Why didn't they run it all the way up?

hope this comes up in Brandi's lawsuit claiming that she is so totally a journalist

What a strange thing for the (looks at notes) Attorney General of the United States to be braying like mule over in a congressional hearing.

DC grand jury declines to indict Sens. Kelly, Slotkin for seditious conpiracy: MS Now President Donald Trump had previously called for prosecution of members of Congress who participated in a video related to the U.S. military.

A DC grand jury refused to indict Senator Mark Kelly, Rep Elissa Slotkin and the other Dems who made a 90 second video telling troops to disobey unlawful orders.

Trump wanted them prosecuted for sedition.

All they did was quote the law.

Outrageous waste of tax payer dollars & abuse of power:

DOJ trying to indict opposition lawmakers for accurately stating the law is an authoritarian weaponization of the justice system.

Grand jurors returning a no bill is patriotism in action.

And I should clarify when I say PBL I mean concrete or better, not flex post or just paint.

I'm so excited for this project. Soon (in the next few years) this area will have PBLs that run from Lake City Way all the way to Greenwood Ave via 125th, Roosevelt and 130th and from 92nd up to 125th via Roosevelt, Pinehurst Way and 15th Ave.

I can't wait for this to open.

Good progress on the construction of the protected bike lane leading to the future Pinehurst station. 🚊 🚶‍♀️ 🚲 🌲

Schumer: ball’s in your court

Republicans: stab the ball, tear it apart, set it on fire, rip up the court and sell the turf to Bahrain

Schumer: hey you guys are out of balls

Republicans: we’re gonna kill your families

Schumer: ok we’ll pass funding for new balls but you’ve GOT to read the rules

The perfect answer to "Our city isn't Amsterdam."

2026 Levy Plan Sets Stage for a New Mayor’s Transportation Priorities » The Urbanist # The full list of 430 levy-funded projects across Seattle was mostly assembled before Mayor Katie Wilson took office. But it contains significant opportunities for the new administration to shape tra...

New from me...when SDOT released the 2026 transportation levy delivery plan in late January, the question on my mind was: how can this plan be shaped by a Mayor who wasn't in office to see it put together? Here's my attempt to answer that:

I took my dog for a walk in Pinehurst last month around lunch time. 20 min walk, around the block. 14 of 15 cars didn't stop at stop signs.

Car drivers act like bikers are criminals when they should just look in the mirror.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

“Trump may be racist but you’re fat” isn’t the sick burn whatever moron runs the GOP account thinks it is
