Seriously, what would it take to redevelop the golf course? It's prime real estate between two light rail stations in a very expensive city with a housing crisis. Is eminent domain even conceivable? Can the city buy the golf course otherwise?

i find it wild how the verb "to escalate" was backformed from "escalator" and didn't exist in English before the year 1900

"Bob's Got Questions" #doomloop #seattle
BOB KETTLE: We need some answers from the mayor on public safety!
BOB: For starters, why did she fire the police chief? 
[CAPTION: Because he was out of town 40% of the time]
BOB: And why did it take so long for the mayor to have a press conference after the Bite of Seattle shootings? 
[CAPTION: because she had to wait for the chief and his 2 top deputies to fly back into town from a conference in Dallas]
BOB: Does the mayor even have a public safety plan?
[CAPTION: crime rates are down in all categories this year]
BOB: [pointing at caption] Can we please get rid of these text boxes? t’s very distracting[CAPTION: but you said you needed answers]
-In closing, um, crime is bad and I blame the mayor 
[CAPTION: this press conference could’ve been a Nextdoor post]

Look, I love Seattle and think it's an easy contender to be a top 3 city in the United States, but in the *world*? Any random European capital has ten times as much walkable urbanist goodness, let's not get ahead ourselves lol

i guess my take on the whole "should we throw trans people under the bus y/n" thing is that in this sort of environment, where the opposition party shot itself repeatedly in the dick and balls by starting an illegal war that made gas cost a million dollars, it shouldn't even be on the table

trans people are also just flatly correct to rage at Dems for wavering on trans rights because immigration advocates did not do so when Dems started wavering on immigration under Obama and that led us to Biden adopting Trump I immigration policy almost wholesale

After a very long debate, this amendment was just APPROVED. The vote was 3-2, with CMs Rinck, Foster and Lin in favor and Saka and Kettle against. There are some outstanding concerns around the amendment's exact language, so I would expect additional tweaks when the bill comes to full council.

Mayor Katie B. Wilson @mayor.seattle.gov · 14/09/2026
Thanks for asking, KUOW! Yes, we are winning for renters: from banning pet rent and other rental junk fees, to adding density throughout our City, to SEPA reform, to my Executive Order streamlined permitting, our renter majority city is seeing real improvements to affordability…
Screenshot of a KUOW article titled, “Seattle Mayor Wilson still rents. Can she help her fellow renters?” with a photo of Mayor Wilson. Screenshots from the articles that say, 
“Zohran Mamdani lives in Gracie Mansion. Karen Bass lives in the Getty House. The mayors of Portland, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and Chicago all own their own homes.

But Katie Wilson, mayor of Seattle, still rents in the same century-old brick apartment building as before the election last year.

Property records say it's 700 square feet, but the original listing said 650, according to Wilson.

This year, Wilson has banned "junk fees" like pet rent and required landlords to be upfront about other fees, signed legislation or issued executive orders to cut through red tape or overcome procedural roadblocks to building housing, and moved toward upzoning, parts of the city to allow taller, denser buildings.”

Gun violence in Seattle isn't a new problem, and my neighborhood has been hit especially hard by it. Weirdly, none of these companies had anything to say about it before we had a socialist mayor. I wonder what changed?

I don't have even a single ounce of respect for "legacy journalism". Even if the wild claims about Mamdani's aides sending press releases to favorable influencers were somehow nefarious (they wouldn't be), you still would not catch me standing up for the fucking New York Times.

No one is proposing old-timey cop-on-your-block foot patrols. Seattle is meeting its 7-minute 911 goal. We already prohibit "camping" and sweep people pointlessly from place to place. And crime is down. But if you ask people leading questions that imply lack of action, you get the result you want.
