I want Katie Wilson to win as quickly and expeditiously as possible, but I also want Bruce Harrell to lose as slowly and painfully as possible

Always magical to see King County ballot sorting at work! This is in the mail-in/dropbox-only voting state of Washington.

Worth noting that the KC ballot return stats already show there are ~60k ballots that haven't even been included in last night's results, and those haven't been refreshed since 6PM last night (and drop boxes didn't close till 8PM).
Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell has a 7-percentage-point lead (53.3% to 46.2%) over progressive challenger Katie Wilson.
But there is a very good chance he will end up losing.
🧵 1/7

Just remembered an Xmas at my ex-in-laws in Casper, WY. They had a family friend who helped them out with money and gifts to my youngest SIL, including a signed copy of Dick Cheney's book, as they were good friends with the Cheney clan. All I could do to not start ranting on Xmas morning.

Anyway, Dick Cheney is a fossil fuel now. It's what he loved most. Besides killing.
I'll be skipping any obits that begin "Whatever you think of what he did as Vice President..." It's what you do when you think nobody can stop you that counts.

Always nice when you come across a video from a show you were actually at and it's as good as you remembered (and sounds and looks pretty good for a 15 year old iPhone video; also pretty sure that's @coreyjbrewer.bsky.social in the thumbnail behind Funds)

Oh hey, finally searched and found a recording of the first time I saw Neil live in 1999. Crowd is about as loud and raucous as I remembered (and I don't think the crowd when I saw him solo in Chicago in 2014 was hooting and hollering nearly as much)

I couldn't convince my parents to drive me 1+ hours to Spokane in early January when I was 11 to see one of Nirvana's last US shows.
What is your biggest concert... miss?
I missed seeing Dinosaur Jr and My Bloody Valentine in Birmingham, Alabama by a day as I was visiting my dad on spring break in high school, and the day they played - the day I found out about it - was the day I went home. Wanna say there was a good opener too.
