Our chief of police's wife and kids live in Chicago??? He's gone most weekends??
Why the fuck is he getting paid to barely be here??

Um holy shit - Police Chief Shon Barnes got PISSED at @soseaemerald.bsky.social reporter Connor Nash when Nash asked about my reporting that Barnes is out of town a lot; Barnes said, "No YOU listen!" and then angrily said my "reports are WRONG." My reporting is based on his schedule.

much of the Pl*tner discourse lately evokes "masculinity" as a thing "he has" or "we need" in politics. so I will re-up this short essay from 2023 about how it's impossible to discuss masculinity without grappling with how ppl unconsciously view femininity juliaserano.medium.com/masculinity-...
Masculinity, Femininity, and Meanings
I experienced a weird confluence of events over the last 48 hours. Over the weekend, I listened to the Know Your Enemy podcast episode…

i have been a philosopher i have been a mad woman for 30 years and I am certain of one thing. for the universe and human life to function some things must be meaningless. seeing meaning everywhere is at best dangerous . at worst it is a disease of perception which distorts all lived experience

🧵 on Trump regime propaganda and the ‘false flag’ reaction’ 🧵
The “false flag” frame has zero utility; we’ve long since passed the point at which conspiracies of “staging” (proven or imagined) explain or help anything.

Honored that my single post questioning whether Claude is sentient got my teeny account put on the AI haters blocklist!

Even though she's usually on the right side of any issue anyway, I called and emailed my rep today to demand she and her Dem colleagues return to DC to draft articles of impeachment. Took five minutes!
(I also thanked her for doing the right thing even when I'm not haranguing her)

Once again we must ask, where in the world is Congress? They should be pursuing every action possible to rein in Trump's raging lunacy. How is there no sense of urgency? (2/3)

Waiting hopefully for when light rail comes to West Seattle. We can do it, team! We don't even need to cross a floating bridge!
To most people, March 28 is just another day in Seattle.
But w/the 2 Line finally connecting the Eastside to Seattle, the region hits a major milestone. Yrs of patience, persistence, & plenty of lawsuits later—we’ve built the foundation of a true regional metro.

Seattle light rail is about to do something audacious and unique to transit
Light rail takes a leap Saturday as service starts across Lake Washington. East finally joins west, giving the Seattle area a regional light rail network.

Woman: You're an Astros fan?
Man: Mariners fan.

My question is, if you think Claude is sentient, what is it doing when no human is interacting with it, when it's running no program? Would it spontaneously reach out to a human to express new, unprompted thoughts? Does it express emotion if you don't direct it to?

indiscriminately bombing Iran is not a distraction of the Epstein files, it is a validation of their significance as more than a sex pest hunt. this is what elite impunity for morons looks like. a school turned to rubble on a whim.
I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.

Trans Kansan's being stripped of their licenses due to having previously - legally - changed their gender marker is absolutely shocking.
A person who misses the letter - let's they moved and forgot to have their mail forwarded - could drive to work and be arrested for driving without a license.

Café Presse! A French restaurant next to Seattle U with sports jerseys on the walls and stacks of magazines at the front to buy or peruse while you wait.
A homey atmosphere with phenomenal, unpretentious French food. Tables so close you could hear everyone's gossip. The best coffee and wine.
