Halloween is coming. You don’t have to go to a “trunk-or-treat” event in Seattle! You can close your neighborhood street to through-traffic – for free! Trick-or-Streets permits are free and easy to get. Join here: seattle.gov/transportation/trick-or-streets

The ancient two-panel Drake meme. On the top, he's looking away in disgust and holding his hand up. The text next to it says "Truck-or-treat". On the bottom, he looks pleased and is pointing toward text that says "Close your street".

not to Wade too far into the Discourse but the whole thread above this skeet is just so abjectly insane to me. the amount of obsequiousness and just straight-up *babying* people have to do in order to have a semblance of a normal conversation with the HEAD of t&s..! bsky.app/profile/regr...

some days I really struggle with impostor syndrome - what am I doing here? will my best be enough? - and on those days, I just take a moment to remind myself that I'll never be as wrong about anything as Anthony Fantano is about Glass Animals

oh my _god_ I have never seen an AQI this high

An air quality sensor map around the town of Wenatchee, Washington. The map shows hilly terrain and a river running through the town. Air quality sensors are dotted around the map, all of them a disturbing deep maroon color, with PM2.5 values reaching as high as 768. There are about 16 sensors and the average among them is around 500.

This hearing is driven entirely by Elon Musk's algorithm. Not a single normie voter alive today has thought about Anthony Fauci for at least five years. On X this is a pressing issue - maybe the pressing issue - of the day. It doesn't matter at all.

I've spent the last two months putting together this exhaustive analysis of the New York Times coverage of trans people. It covers 3,242 articles over 12 years. In 2022, the NYT shifted towards a hostile stance towards trans people in their framing. www.thedissident.news/exclusive-ho...

The theory that “electable” means “work to appease right-wing bigots under the assumption that majorities agree with them, at least partially, and they prioritize it when voting” has been tried. It has failed. Try something else.

fully vaccinated by the blood of jesus

Photo of the back of a gray Tesla. It has a Washington license plate and two stickers. To the right of the plate is a sticker with black cursive lettering but it says "Jesus loves you". To the left of the plate is a sticker with colorful block lettering and a crucifix with a blue cloth draped over it that says "fully vaccinated by the blood of Jesus".

it's remarkable how like, you can visibly notice how people who still use X regularly are either getting dragged to the right (if on the centre-left or centre) or just getting more toxic in general

Some days you think about all of the stories that got Bluesky here and it's honestly hard to believe. The closest thing that I could probably compare it to, is how back in nineteen ninety eight the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcers table.
