Whenever someone goes radio silent for reasons unknown, I pine for the day we all relied on home phones.

Dems REALLY need to get their shit together pushing back against this. Bullies ALWAYS attack who they see as the weakest, the easiest to attack. Standing up to bullies is a core part of the social contract. If you don't do that, you have nothing. It's as simple & fundamental as that.

WashPost: Taxpayer funded Trump political ads seen by many as illegal draw on government cash that was in part devoted to "memorials for officers killed in the line of duty."
washingtonpost.com
Campaign-style Trump ads use money meant for border security, memorials
The White House Office of Management and Budget added $20 million to the pot for commemorative events a day before DHS awarded an advertising contract of the same amount.

‼️ Weeks before midterms, Texas election officials have discovered that an unknown number of voter registration applications havent been processed due to an error by the DPS. The Texas Association of County Elected Officials say number could be "tens of thousands" - much of them in urban areas.
votebeat.org
Error means unknown number of Texas voter registrations haven’t been processed yet
It’s unknown how many prospective voters have been affected.

It took a cross-examination by @alexis4seattle.bsky.social, but we finally know what happened to the "missing" $8 million discovered in a forensic audit of the Regional Homelessness Authority: KCRHA's accountants made a "one-time error" and basically lost track of the money, but still had it.

Not a new observation that “all-gender bathroom” can simply be called “bathroom”, but that goes double when your establishment literally just has the one bathroom behind the one door with the one toilet

The thread demonstrates this clearly, with a lot of receipts. Our biggest newspaper eagerly wants our mayor to fail and is working overtime to try and make it happen. But I don’t think the public is buying it.

A friend reached out this evening to request clarification on an AI apologist’s talking point, and it’s worth reiterating: Digitizing is a process librarians, archivists, and curators understand to preserve the information inside a book as a unique entity. What these bros are doing is destroying.

“More than 50 detainees have died during President Trump’s second term, at an average rate of one death every six days.” “Deaths in detention deserve the same scrutiny as high-profile, public killings by immigration agents.”

Seattle was electric during the World Cup. To support 750,000 visitors, the city pedestrianized streets, activated public spaces, and removed parking. Rather than revert these changes, city leaders should identify what worked and make those changes permanent. seattletransitblog.com/2026/07/09/s...

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

Thank you for listening! It’s a neat format for the project, right? I’m pretty pleased with my May entry last month as well (though my talk is subpar for that one). Last year I’m proud of my May, March, July, and January entries in particular.

Judgment values aside, I’ve released 18 songs in the last 18 months through a little project a friend invited me to. Today I recorded BG vocals for an album a friend plans to release this year, on which I play bass for most tracks. I played and recorded before but still felt like an imposter. Well.
