BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Nope. Well, maybe for like a month in 2020 after the Floyd murder. But they have a contract so it’s not going to change their actions if they did. 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 07/10/2026There’s this little entity called SPOG that is an intractable problem, regardless of who is in office. 100
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Even if this were true, if she gets good things done, who cares? 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Fair enough. I suppose the answer hinges on how you feel about Calkins’ credibility. 001
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 24/08/2026And do you have proof that the Times spiked it because of the opinion? 110
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 23/08/2026I don’t know man. He may have have had a draft, but I saw no indication from him during his term or the campaign that he was interested in design reform at all. 100
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 23/08/2026What makes you think Harrell would have done any of that? 100
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 07/08/2026You keep bringing up the comp plan, but it is currently being held up via SEPA appeal. The mayor and council can’t resume work on advancing it until that is resolved. 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Not sure about that. The mayor’s race in Seattle has historically favored moderates. 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Harrell was a stronger candidate than you’re giving him credit for. He was much more entrenched and well known in Seattle politics than the conservative councilmembers and was always going to be much harder to beat. 101
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 03/08/2026I guarantee I’ve spoken face to face with our councilmembers way more than you have. 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Obviously I don’t know if it was discussed. But even if it was, I don’t see why Barnes would have been motivated to renegotiate. 270
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 01/08/2026It would have had to have been worked out contractually. He was already under contract when Wilson took office. 181
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Leo, Spoon, Jones and I would argue Murphy, though the league underrates him. 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Final number for US-Belgium will come out tomorrow and likely exceed 45 million. Still an amazing number. 010

BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 30/06/2026I don’t think any municipality in this region would have any interest in forking over tax payer dollars. The Seahawks aren’t going anywhere. 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 30/06/2026“Businesses further away from the stadium aren’t doing as well as businesses closer to the stadium.” Oh, no shit? 010
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 30/06/2026LOL. The article cited a Bloomberg piece saying that flight bookings to Seattle are down year over year, a claim which SeaTac already debunked. www.king5.com/video/news/l...king5.com 020
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 16/06/2026If SWU still feels she has their back I don’t see the problem. 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 14/05/2026The data belies your contention. More small businesses have opened than closed over that time period. Revenue hasn’t kept up due to inflation and having one of the most regressive tax systems in the country. 120
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Grow up. Condemning the actions of the Israeli government is in no way antisemitic. 000
BLopez @brettb3.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I went to games in the ‘90s. I can assure you there was foul language everywhere. 100
