Thoughts and opinions are my own, and may not reflect those with which I endure capitalist entanglements.

We banned rental junk fees! Starting July 1st, 2027, the price you see is the price you pay — no pet rent, no admin fees, no lease renewal fees. Step by step, we’re building an affordable Seattle. Thanks to City Attorney Evans and Councilmember Foster, and to the Stay Housed, Stay Healthy Coalition!

This video was filmed in Palestine. My heart struggles to comprehend such cruelty and the heartbreaking disregard for human life. No human being should have to endure this.

It’s wild that the Portland Police Association suggests officers would be “met with swift and merciless condemnation and punishment” for comments akin to Councilor Green’s 2020 tweets. At a protest this year, Officer Brandon Brunelle said he’d have shot Renee Good. Most officials said nothing.

This might be shocking to some, but the police calling for the removal of an elected council member for criticizing them is not how democracy works. The police who live in the city have a chance to vote, just like everyone else. Just thought I'd clear that up.

Maybe the Oregonian has forgotten exactly why there might be ire towards Portland police... @inafutureage.bsky.social www.wweek.com/news/courts/...
The recordings, Ahern’s attorney Juan Chavez says, show police arrested protesters without suspecting a crime. “The city had an open and verbalized policy of arresting leftist protesters without probable cause,” Chavez wrote in a Feb. 26 legal filing. “The city was so unabashed about this policy that they announced it over the radio before realizing they were recording and then quickly stopped recording.”

PPB declined to comment.

People complaining about dealing with "the real issues of the city" whenever a progressive ordinance passes have successfully campaigned to have a statue of Abraham Lincoln restored atop a 6-foot pedestal while claiming that a street level statue would be disrespectful. Very serious people.

In our system of government, the executive branch's role is to negotiate proposed deals & the legislative branch's role is to consider approving them. For that to work, the executive should be proposing things the legislature can get behind. Don't lobby us, listen to us. Pretty basic stuff.

Profound since white supremacy prefers white mediocrity to white excellence. Successful mediocre white people will fight hard to preserve white supremacy because they semiconsciously understand the debt they owe to it. Black mediocrity requires entirely overthrowing racism. (See also: patriarchy)

In April, EPA Chief Lee Zeldin and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. held a news conference declaring their dedication to studying microplastics, in the human body and in drinking water. But a new EPA drinking water testing rule leaves them out.
