Inflation has turned Washington state’s property tax cap into a county budget-killer Frustrated county officials say state leaders have shunted the state’s financial burden onto local governments

This exact shit is killing municipal governments in Washington State

Party + Gay: Disco,Troye Sivan, Janelle Monae

Party + Christmas: Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, All I Want for Christmas is You

Gay + Christmas: Sufjan Stevens Christmas Album

You can't have all three

Your playlist can only have two at once:

-Party Music
-Gay Music
-Christmas Music

Tax avoidance is an aggravated felony, automatically subjecting immigrants to deportation, but I can't imagine a circumstance where I would be ok with breaking up families over such a charge.

A bit annoying to have that first paragraph when we know that "criminal records" without any nuance is hardly indicative of egregiously dangerous conduct and breaks up families just the same

This is something I fear losing as a trans woman

Yunno it would be cool if 'blue collar' wasn't code for 'rural right leaning capitulator' and instead meant 'fiercely pro-working class'

But what do I know

In the senate? Chris Murphy probably

Kendrick, Joyce Carol Oates, Menswear Guy, and Isaac Chotiner are the Voltron of People You Don't Want Focusing on You

Hand recount of 270,000 votes would be wild! If it happens, that must be the largest in the history of the state right?

District- City of Seattle % of ballots returned: 55.73% # of ballots returned: 281643 # of Active Registered Voters 505,393

@elections.kingcounty.gov website seems to be reporting an additional 4k votes having been tabulated since Friday

Same tbh.

I'm optimistic after Tuesday, but nothing quite takes the wind out of my sails like rich Dem elite scumbags capitulating to fascists.

Tbh it's likely more than those 8 who organized this behind the scenes. Those just are the senators who the Cave Caucus figured could stand the hit, since none of them are facing reelection for at least 3 years

These numbers are very out of date

Hot take -

The Mandani fans who are doing invasive power couple worship of Zohran and Rama are annoying, but the people who deny that Rama is drop dead gorgeous are actual freaks

Early 70s cool white guy in a black turtle neck, felt short coat, and slacks in an urban setting. He's got a stylish medium cut with black aviators

Singers that my brain merges together into one person, irrespective of their actual music (pt 1)

Tom Waits
Neil Young
Nick Cave
Scott Walker

I've heard music from all of them but they all get mushed together into a guy that looks like this

*and late 20s types trying to wean themselves off of short-form video

I really want to like Kshama, but her attitude to coalition building is trash. Just constantly picking fights within her own electoral coalition

Love a coalition building attitude on the left, am I right Kshama ?

Wilson presumably has more ballot curing capabilities than Harrell though, since (1) younger voters' ballots are rejected more often and (2) she has the better otg operation.

Would've been cool if Oregon democrats didn't rat fuck the Multnomah County tenants' right to legal counsel campaign.

The eviction courts in Oregon are a meat grinder

Looks like its time for the (ballot) Cure

No ballot drops on the weekend

What was the margin on the Friday batch?

Holy fuck ! Go Sarah

Baumgartner's vibe screams rich city boy. Find a candidate who can undercut that and you've got a chance
