Legacy media is dying. Independent media is flourishing. I donโt know about everywhere else but Seattle has 6+ (off the top of my head) great little local media outlets. Most of them have their own little niche and all are seemingly funded and valued.

Electric bikes and electric motorcycles have a lot of blurred lines, especially when most Americans almost never ride either. They lump everything that is not cars into one unnecessary ball of annoyance.

If weโd had a more rigorous debate on the nitty gritty of running a city in 2020 Harrell never would have been mayor. But that only ever applies when the left has momentum.

When the left wins itโs โideological drama.โ When the conservatives win itโs a โreferendum on radical left policymakers.โ
Funny how they only ever feature the opinions from one specific group during election seasons.

The @seattletimes.com editorial section is absurd. The thing about editorial sections you need to understand is these are the opinions the papersโ owners want to platform. They clearly assume a significant number of people who read the paper are morons.

This is probably right. Going forward we can assume that law enforcement who remain and enforce unjust laws are probably almost all bad people who are there to inflict harm.

This is insane and everyone knows it. Is this Davisonโs revenge for getting wrecked in the primary? City leadership is completely responsible for whatever happens.

Cancel any pending legal action against any Gaza protestor from the last 2 years. Pay back any fine they were charged. They were right.

Vintage cars are stylish but not practical by modern standards. Unless you have a good mechanic nearby for them or have time and skill to do the work yourself, this is a bad idea.

Yeah adding a higher number of users isnโt necessarily a good thing. The ratio of intelligent/important/influential people to fuckwits/shitheads/dumbasses is the real metric they should be reporting on.
