Finished Octavia E. Butler's Parable of the Sower and Parable of the Talents. After finishing the first I couldn't wait to get them next one from the library and had to buy it.

I'm sure I'll revisit and reread them both. What an amazing author. I also think I found a new favorite genre.

Hoping to get some cycling wind deflectors so I can hear the birds while I ride too.

I’m calmer when I can travel at walking/biking speeds and take in my surroundings… like this pretty yellow canopy of leaves.

i'll just note that the mariners were 2-0 until bruce held an illegal campaign event with his campaign PAC while airing some really disgusting campaign ads.

#Seattle join us in electing Katie as our next mayor. We need vision and know-how. Katie is exceptionally qualified to lead us into an age of affordability, where local government works for the people and not their donors and family. Fill out your ballot early and return it! Let’s win this!

This looks like so much fun! I'll have to keep an eye out for the next one

Traffic in cities is a geometry problem, not a technology problem.

House Speaker Mike Johnson insisted Tuesday that he would not swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva until Democrats relent and end the government shutdown.

Grijalva, speaking alongside Democrats, including Sen. Mark Kelly, on Wednesday, said the delay β€œis not procedural. It’s intentional.” 🧡

Exactly. If Harrell is re-elected, nothing will change on homelessness, on housing costs, and so much more. He will take it as validation of what he's done so far.

Dear Toronto: We will stop scoring runs this game if Doug Ford agrees to stop tearing out bike lanes. Until then, the runs will continue.

I play a game with my son where watch cars and see if they can stop before the stop line or even at minimum not enter the crosswalk. In a school zone at peak school zone hours most cars (once, 9/10 cars) didn't stop before the stop sign. Most didn't come to a complete stop at all.

Yeah crows evolved flight in Seattle because they just got sick of things being so close but yet so far! I'm loving this croissant adventure you're taking us on.

Harrell's campaign is leaning hard on the "experience managing large, complex organizations" argument. And yet here's a story where SDOT ultimately follows its own policies and does the right thing, but *in spite of* Harrell's leadership, thanks to pressure from his opponent's activist organization.

That's so cool! I'll need to visit soon. I've heard great things about Paris's mayor and the changes she's making/made but I didn't know London was also progressing so much.

@seattledot.bsky.social please install official micromobilty parking at E Pike & Melrose Ave. This area has long needed it, and without it we constantly see bike lanes and sidewalks obstructed with bike & scooter share vehicles.
