Jeopardy! host Ken Jennings urges Washington voters to keep million dollar earners tax in NO on 645’s newest television spot
The beloved quiz show host is putting voters’ knowledge to the test in a new ad highlighting 645’s tax giveaway to the wealthy and the loss of funding it would cause to the state's K-12 public schools.

Apparently someone put a vacation hold on my mail. I did not do this. I only noticed because I didn't get junk mail for like a week. I'm pretty suspicious of that, honestly. Please, please ensure that you get your ballot, and frankly, if possible don't mail it, but put it in a drop box.

I see so many conservatives online use this tactic and I like pointing them to this website where they are free to find any of the thousands of audits done in Washington state. They are not actually interested in looking at the audits. sao.wa.gov/reports-data...

People always ask for audits of anything they think costs too much. A good way to see if this is in good faith or just a soft way of using "accountability" to mean "defund", ask "well what if the audit finds they're doing nothing wrong? what then?"

Walking through Pike Place Market just now, a confused tourist in a rental car (presumably) rolled up behind a woman standing in the street talking to friends. She yelped with surprise and jumped out of the way when she saw it was right behind her, then said, “I thought this street was car-free!”

When Dems talk about the Ilhan Omar situation, they need to stop using language that implies that Omar might have done anything wrong. Trump is not "investigating" Omar. They are trying to denaturalize and deport a sitting Congressmember by scrutinizing decades old paperwork from when she was a kid

Say what you want about the merits of parliaments versus presidents or even ranked choice voting or proportional representation, somehow all these fuckers bow down to Israel. Democracy doesn’t mean anything if the government doesn’t follow the will of the people.

I know that western democracy is pretty bullshit in a lot of ways but the fact that the entire western world’s populace now clearly sees Israel’s actions as the genocide that they are, but all western governments continue to support Israel is really just very demoralizing.

When 75% of Israelis support the genocide of Palestinians, Lebanese and Syrians, you can’t really say it’s a Netanyahu thing, can you? It’s an Israel thing. It was created in genocidal sin. It can’t and won’t get better.

"literally the opposite being true"????? Oh please. I would agree with the characterization that Trump is a considerably *worse* war-mongerer. But Joe Biden's lusty, bloodthirsty provisioning of 1,000 and 2,000 pound bombs remains a stubborn historical fact.

Galactic Racer is my favorite racing game in ages, a game that scratches the same arcade itch as Wipeout, Burnout, and F-Zero GX. It is an antidote to the antiseptic, licensed car collection simulators we have grown accustomed to.

A good time to remind people that Chris Van Hollen is the only Member of Congress to have ever called for European states to sanction the President and Secretary of State, in this case specifically in response to their attempts to destroy the ICC in order to protect Israel.

Being a roguelite is a little weird. I would prefer if it was a more normal racing structure but I do see the appeal. I haven't gotten that far yet so I can't say how meaningful all the upgrades really are. I just like the racing.

I can confirm the reports that Star Wars: Galactic Racer rocks. It genuinely is basically Burnout: Star Wars Edition. I don't even like star wars anymore, but I love Burnout and I've been desperate for something like this for over a decade. It kicks so much ass

I'm a longtime Seattle urbanist who is strongly supporting Pollet in this race. He's gotten a lot better on housing, as his record and his quotes in the article demonstrate. Dreher on the other hand has no track record of urbanist advocacy, and thus no reason we should trust a word he says.

This is right. The issue is that LLMs are at best a $50 billion/year revenue type business and they've invested in it like it's going to be $500 billion/year in revenue or more. The mismatch is potentially trillions in capex overspend which is enough to cause a deep recession when the bubble pops.
