One name in one language, different in the other

at no point did i have any clue what was coming next

Me, when they refuse to serve a happy meal to a grown ass man

I personally am going to continue to disagree with the pundits who said that the pardon of Hunter Biden was going to be a major issue in the 2028 election cycle

We’re way beyond this point. Here is the front page of the USDA website. This morning I was hoping to get some help from the USDA who holds my mortgage, and this obscenity is what I was met with. This is the USDA!

520 trail

That time of year when the SR 520 Trail looks like a Bob Ross painting. 🧑‍🎨

Some clouds and morning drizzle. A sunbreak here and there. And, of course, a palette of happy little trees and thriving restored wetlands. 🌳🍂

When my campaign accidentally signed a letter from me, rather than “Ron Davis for Seattle with the address” the PDC had no problem fining us.

But when Bruce Harrell used city resources with impunity to campaign, they dismissed the complaint.

Who do these people work for?

I was wondering why it suddenly started smelling of pedophile around here!

government of convicted criminals, by convicted criminals, for convicted criminals

The government of the United States of America, currently, speaks in the voice of two morons who don’t know how to form a ‘your mom’ joke.

The cybertruck is a massive men's rights win. Finally a car that she won't take in the divorce.

I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings.

These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate.

Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.

75,000 more blocks in 10 minutes
finally a bluesky debut worse than Jimmy Fallon or Adobe
holy christ lmao

Hard to think of a more peak ICE behavior than *racial profiling the cop arresting you for driving drunk*

ICE is just a government jobs program for the worst people in the country

They want a gd who tells them it’s ok to hurt and kill the people they hate and if they don’t get one they’ll just make one up bsky.app/profile/diew...

It's the MAGA way: when you gain power, you shove the worthy aside and give sinecures to your family.

This mailer is clearly illegal. PACs are required by WA state law to list their top 5 contributors, and this WA Bikes PAC mailer can't get around this by merely listing its contributors as "WA Bikes."

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly.

Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested.

Stay safe out there.

behind the wheel of a vehicle women don’t like

Infuriating. Major shift in the game, it’s not close, it’s not even particularly well framed, just a terrible call in a massive game that we have the technology to get right bsky.app/profile/cjze...

This reminds me of our 2007 endorsement meeting with Harrell, when he said "Do you smell that?" (meaning bullshit) several times after his opponent Venus Velazquez spoke. This prompted a staffer (not me) to ask him, "Are you having a stroke?" www.thestranger.com/news/2007/10...

2/ We ended up endorsing Harrell's challenger, explaining that "Our problem with Harrell … is that outside of an election year, he's completely AWOL," a complaint that was widely shared at the time. But at the endorsement interview, our news editor backed up this take with actual data.
…

1/ Seeing a Bruce Harrell mailer touting his experience, including 3 terms on the council, while attacking the resume of his challenger, I'm reminded of a 2011 endorsement interview at The Stranger, when the then one-term Harrell was running for reelection.
…

6/ The thing about politics is that it's all about conflict, thus any time you accomplish something you end up pissing somebody off. Harrell has largely avoided this by avoiding accomplishments. Think about his 12 years on the council and 4 years as mayor. What were his signature accomplishments?
…

I’m pretty confident that the Venn diagram of people who pushed open floor plan offices and people pushing talking to computers has a big honkin’ overlap

Capabilities aside, who are these people that can't understand why most people don't work in isolated spaces and talking to the computer is the worst fucking thing you can do

The former Lib Dem leader Tim Farron described the ban as racist: "We can't have Jews watching football, people might get violent towards them' - are we seriously saying that we are incapable of protecting football fans from racism? I'm flabbergasted. This is shameful. "We're not banning them because they're Jewish, it's because they're hooligans...' is the risible defence for the ban from people who know nothing about football or hooliganism, but are desperate not to acknowledge or admit their own racism. This is a stain on Britain."

MPs are so overexcited they’ve forgotten they’re literally talking about the police service

Cops: Look we saw the tapes from last year and would like to avoid a riot tyvm
Forensic former DPP Sir Keir Starmer: Completely wrong actually. Quite a racist thing to say IMO

Wilfully misunderstanding football, policing and flags here - all 3 of his specialist subjects!
