Please enjoy this aggressively local insult.
An image from an unsolicited political campaign text.

The image reads: "YES I-645 Repeal the Income Tax"

Pictured is a giant apple in a rural apple field, labeled "YOUR HARD-EARNED INCOME" with a bite taken out of it labeled "INCOME TAX".

I have responded: "Go shoplift an office chair you whiny fuckers."

Fun Fact: Income of those impacted by the millionaires tax is generally not hard-earned. Definitionally!

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

My kid’s special ed teacher will meet with us for our Fall IEP meeting “eventually”, according to the unsigned form letter unceremoniously shoved into his backpack. She’s new, as are much of SPED at my school, so I’m trying to suspend judgement. I’m just lucky his classroom teacher is rad.

That’s why so many teachers were horrified when you dragged AFT into bed with Microsoft, Open AI, and Anthropic a year ago for your poorly thought out “National Academy for AI Instruction” a little over a year ago, Randi.

Three years ago today. Let’s get out there and make fun of the fear mongering bullies. (And bring a jacket. It might rain).
A screenshot of a twitter post from Kat Abu: “Fox News tried to do a bunch of scary man-on-the-street interviews about crime. It didn’t go well.“ It includes a picture of a white woman in a green jacket with a microphone in front of her. She is outside in Seattle, getting increasingly annoyed with the reporter trying to paint Seattle as a hellhole. She will soon turn to straight up mocking him.

At time time this article was published ICE was abducting another person from the Costco parking lot just north of Seattle. ICE IS HERE. They have been disappearing folks in my city for months. Seattle Times has not been prioritizing this reporting, I recommend iceout.org to keep aware of them.

Around the time this article was published Sunday afternoon ICE was abducting someone from the parking lot of the Shoreline Costco/ Home Depot, which they have done weekly for months. I can’t stress this enough people, ICE IS HERE.

Nothing but respect for the person who entered this quilt into the "Patriotic" category at the Washington State Fair. 🫡
A lap quilt in red, white and blue with bloody hand appliques and "250 years of violence" on it in large letters. There are a lot of hand-embroidered phrases around the hand appliques listing various American atrocities carried out by the government against marginalized American communities and other countries.

The park rangers who racially profiled 5 families out camping this Labor Day weekend at the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest & turned them over to #ICE should be fired. Our local elected officials and the state should demand answers from the U.S. Forest Service. www.king5.com/article/news...
