If only Dems can get the noisy online “influencers” and pundits seeking clicks and controversy to unite around Dem nominees the way the losing primary candidates have. It seems to me that defeating Trump regime enablers and sycophants should be the priority right now.

In one video, two white women ignore a man getting abducted

Where is the community?

Dear media,

You don't have to say "E Jean Carroll accused Trump of defamation and rape." You can say "Trump defamed and raped E Jean Carroll." It's been adjudicated.

Thank you

BREAKING: A rare voting rights win 5-4 — SCOTUS protects mail-in ballot grace periods in 15 states. Ballots postmarked by Election Day can still be counted after arrival.

This is good news, folks.

I’m not going to hail Barrett and Roberts for allowing us to count our votes. It’s a huge win for democracy, but it shouldn’t have even been a question. That we were one vote away from disenfranchising votes is all the more reason to expand the court in 2029.

our grocery costs in germany were like a third of what they are in seattle.
Possibly relatedly, I am regularly stunned by how much cheaper food is here, in Scotland, where everyone warned us "oh food is so expensive there!" than back home in the US

Y'all our grocery bills are HALF as much in Scotland than in the US, for much greater quality food.

currently reading a whole bunch of petitions and editorials from black americans of the revolutionary era and it is so striking (and frankly inspiring) to see how the ink wasn't even dry on the declaration before black americans were demanding that the patriots live up to their stated ideals

It takes 1.28 seconds for a message to reach us from the Moon.

It takes as little as 35 minutes from Jupiter.

It takes as little as 4.5 hours from Pluto.

It takes at least 6-12 months from NYT reporters, plus $35 for the book containing it.

I really love this legacy media environment in which I'm asked to pay $20/month to support traditional newspapers and then asked to spend another $29.99 for a supposedly essential book written by two reporters who could have already published that information in said traditional newspaper.

A lot of people often like to shit on Seattle's planning/process (me, I'm people), but we've also gotta remember that we're absolutely destroying most other American cities today.

We deserve to pat ourselves on the back once in a while.

Now that Platner has won the primary, I want to be clear. When I said “vote blue no matter who” in 2016, 2020, and 2024, I meant it. I’m worried about Platner, but if you say “vote blue no matter who” in Maine, I hope you’ll extend the same courtesy to other Dems.

I hope we beat Collins.

Like the 39th US president, the current occupant of the White House has handed control of the narrative to Iran
