Within a week we've had a major jewel heist at the Louvre, a mafia-involved poker ring and sports gambling corruption. We're living in the 1920s.

Mike Johnson is now pretending that it's Rep-Elect Grijalva who is not doing her job, when he's the one shirking his duties.

And even *he* knows this is bullshit. He corrects himself to call her "Rep-Elect" not "Rep" because he actually understands there's a very important difference.
Mike Johnson: "Rep. Grijalva can work -- Rep.-elect Grijalva can work for her constituents right now. Constituent services, answering the phones, she has computers and 16 employees and there's no excuse for it. The Epstein files are being released."

Throwing this into that pile of "everyone is 12 now" evidence because only 12-year-olds think it's cool to sleep in a tent at work.
Absolutely obsessed with framing your employees sleeping on the floor as a humble brag

“Look how hard my team works” no dude you’re just bad at project management.

SNAP assistance should be enough to cover 2000 calories a day of HEALTHY food PER PERSON. Yes I want the government to make sure everyone has wholesome, tasty, filling meals. The problem isn't that people need assistance with food, it's that the assistance is a freaking joke.

Oregonians, we need your help.

ICE activity is increasing in our communities. If you see something, report it to PIRC's hotline (1-888-622-1510) and get your phone out to record it.

Carney: But this decades-long process of an ever-closer economic relationship with the United States is now over. And as a consequence, many of our former strengths as a country—more particularly, our economic strengths based on close ties to America—have now become our vulnerabilities…

my most lib opinion: so long as we have law enforcement officers, they should probably be able to pass an exam about what the law allows them to do without consulting notes

I’ve been thinking about how hard the founding fathers cooked with the Third Amendment.

Imagine being forced to house ICE. I can’t imagine they wash their hands. They’ve never done laundry in their lives. They’d break your stuff if you didn’t cut the crusts off their sandwiches.

Trump: "By the way, a friend of mine called us the other day and he said 'I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have because of the Democrat shutdown. I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have with the military.' Today, he sent us a check for $130 million. It's gonna go the military."

Hey. So now that SNAP is being cut and people will be struggling further to feed their families, I wanted to share a really good resource for finding food pantries in your area you can utilize or support depending on your situation.

Go to www.gethelp.org and then go to “food” & type in your zip!

Last night's fatal crash in north Ballard means that at least sixteen people walking have been killed in 2025 after being hit by drivers in Seattle.
Seattle Fire just responded to a driver hitting someone walking at 15th Ave NW and NW 73rd Street, 30 minutes ago.

This was a hit-and-run.

I'll provide updates on the person who was hit as they become available.

Modern Agriculture is one of the most under appreciated miracles of the modern world.

We moved away from subsistence farming for a good reason! It was a lot of labor for not much food!

By the way, none of this is to say urban gardening is useless. It's a great way to build community and you can in fact *supplement* the food you buy from the store for *part* of the year. But you can't feed a whole family full-time off of a community pea-patch plot, in any universe.

I never saw myself getting all emotional about baseball and writing something like this, but this gosh dang Mariners team made me do it.

I also don't think my experience is unique, so if you're missing someone and baseball helps you miss them a little less, this one's for you.
A Loss Only Mariners Baseball Could Cure
And even a season that ends in a loss can still be a salve.

It is hilarious to me that Bruce Harrell, a rich man who has been in a position power for decades, told the New York Times that everyone takes Katie Wilson seriously as a candidate for mayor because she's a white woman. As if that's who we've been electing mayor for the past 150 years.

🚨NEW: Following California's lead, Virginia is planning to redraw its Congressional map to cancel out GOP gains from partisan gerrymander.

Illinois and Maryland need to follow suit.

Hi. Friendly reminder today as ICE is terrorizing multiple cities across the country at an accelerating pace—

Many of us are trying to get info out to locals in our areas *fast.* We do not always have time to explain neighborhoods/intersections to people thousands of miles away.

SCOOP: For the last two years, Microsoft has pushed Xbox to hit profit margins of 30%, an ambitious target that's far higher than the industry average.

This chase for profit has led Xbox to raise prices, cut thousands of jobs, and rethink everything.
