such a great undecided voter interaction. campaigns are run by nerds who want to show you their bluesky dms. voters don't care. voters often pick random things to care about based on their media diet. campaigns don't win just because their ideas are right.

I've heard they are considering a karaoke contest for batting coach because they want somebody who knows the hits.

Apparently 8:30pm is the appropriate time to be stripping paint off 125th, SDOT? It was literally shaking our house and had our kids crying.

Entirely possible for the Seahawks to allow fewer than 100 yards in the first half and be losing this game.

I know it's 70° outside but it's the start of soup season, dagumit. this is a pantry clear out of turkey sausage, Banza cavatappi, white beans, spinach and the holy trinity.

This seems like a pretty major scandal. Sound Transit needs to immediately remove this photo of a candidate for office at a brand new station in the district in which she is currently running.

His leaving on his own terms at the end of the year really only confirms that the only reason he wasn’t fired midseason was to preserve his reputation, which is not great for those of us who prefer a winning team

Austin Nola is Jerry's pick for next manager, and I think it's probably a good one (though hard to be worse than Dan). I think Nola benefits from being a player in the modern game (pitcher and platoon usage).

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.

A very interesting thing is happening across Seattle right now: As Starbucks continues its retrenchment in its hometown, small local shops and chains are taking over their old cafes. That feels like a story to me, and I'll write it if anyone is taking pitches. DMs are open.

we're reading through Narnia with our 7yo. he generally enjoys it, but as an adult (and post-deconstruction) the parts that are most meaningful aren't battles and adventures, it's scenes like Aslan in Prince Caspian traveling Narnia calling the people to join him.

the email that just went out from SPS Superintendent Shuldiner is in poor taste and comes across as sneering and insulting while trying to make the district look like the serious party.

I wish they had done more, but Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island are perfect companions for having one film where Michael Caine plays it dead serious, and one where Tim Curry hams it up so much that the Muppets look like the real actors.

one of the things that has helped clarify the difference between my aspirations and my daily work is reading things like this. I used to be a "see, socialist policy polls well, we should run on it!" guy, but now I'm a "be likeable, engaging and talk like a human, and then govern to the left" guy.

People who live in Seattle, Wa don't want to live in Tennessee. Missing from so many complaints about tax policy scaring off business are the mild summer, ferry rides on the Salish Sea, Tahoma on the horizon, skiing at Snoqualmie and boating on Lake Washington. People like it here.

There is so much fantastic music in Bob's burgers, and I love so much of it. But Marshmallow singing Seabird in the open mic night episode is far and above the best song. Down to the specificity of correctly drawing a Fender Jaguar guitar

I think about Brendan Ryan almost every time I watch the 2026 Mariners completely hopeless left side of the infield. Kind of impossible to listen to the Mariners FO talk about anyone being a good defender when we watched one of the best ever.
