That's a wrap for #CascadiaJS 2025!
We like to say that this event is made up of hundreds of tiny modules that we `npm install` to create something special for our community 💚
Thanks to everyone who came, spoke or volunteered! We hope to see you all in 2026!
Paine Field in Everett, WA near Seattle. It’s a chill regional airport with a hotel lobby-esque terminal (with a Beecher’s Cheese and great coffee)

We need to counteract their false narratives. Please share!

More people may be calling than you would expect. Give them hell!

Definitely worth some phone calls folks.

And an even smaller percentage of those girls play sports. My daughter is more likely to die in a school shooting than she is to even compete against a trans girl."

I love this so much. Girl Scouts has openly included transgender and nonbinary individuals in its membership for a long time. Support a trans Girl Scout and get some cookies - win win!

Excellent reporting from Erin Reed.
"Sacrificing transgender individuals, their families, and their allies for political expediency is not a winning strategy; it’s a betrayal. History has made it clear: there is no compromise with those who seek erasure."
as usual, the lists of people who provide resources don’t contain any women, so make sure you take this survey and write in the people who got left out
