Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson: "The World Cup was great! Seattle is a good place to be and if we work at it, we can make it even better!" www.seattletimes.com/opinion/seat... Average brain-dead out-of-towner responding in the Seattle Times comment section:
Rolling the dice. Will the WSB approve my extremely “controversial” take about parking in the Junction, guaranteed to make the usual crowd’s heads explode?
I hope RFK Jr gets pelted with at least one gross object before he leaves town. Or maybe the Hammering Man outside of the Seattle Art Museum comes to life and steps on him-- that would be rad.
It is a real privilege to live in Seattle right now. I have no idea what drew me here all those years ago, but people in this city are really trying to get things right.
This reminds me of the Critical Art Ensemble's "Electronic Civil Disobedience" essays explaining how our society still accepts and even encourages human sacrifice, as long as it's in the service of cars.
I’m honestly sorry for people who don’t like dogs. You’re welcome to that opinion but you’re missing out on some weird and wonderful experiences.
Who’s ready for a Nonnus book club? It’s a mere 700 pp. This is actually quite exciting bc the translation I read was terrible.
I happen to have a soft spot for these walking dudes. I painted this in like 2003?
Just look at this. Just look at it. People are falling for it! and that is incredible to me.
Fucking hell. It’s like the weird doppelgänger police station in “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.”
The Highland Park "Action Coalition" (read: "We Heart Highland Park") suggests that adding a bike lane/speed limitations to a dangerous road will something something Nature Greenbelt Brain Fart. Hopefully SDOT will bin this "letter" and these turds will go back to r/SeattleWa 3/3
Instead of pushing back on this duplicitous and very questionable claim (“Surveillance cameras are the number one tool for catching (criminals))” from SW Precinct Cmdr Krista Bair, the WSB publishes it as fact, proving once again that many neighborhood bloggers are only marginally "journalists." 2/3
"EVGUY" (naturally) is terrified that "they"(?) will "blow up a game" and thinks the concerns about the cameras amount to "the feds" looking for "illegal aliens" (naturally).
The headline on the article when you click through is even more sensationalistic and bonkers. “Dark truths?” Seriously?! “THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WILL UNLEASH ELDRITCH HORRORS UPON THE INNOCENT AND USHER IN A NEW ERA OF DARKNESS”
Hey let’s report this absolute POS. They’re spamming Islamophobic word salad on every post about the San Diego shooting today. We can do without this lowlife scum.
Sorry for those of you in Seattle who don't go to Joketeller's Union. You missed the inaugural showing of Seattle's Pop-Up Parasite Museum, featuring the World's Longest Crocheted Tapeworm.
Yikes, a lot of y'all are choosing to Fedpost today (or I somehow ended up on fedsky). Look, ppl: don't trust anybody posting shit like this on main-- they're either a fed, or somebody dangerously thoughtless. Either way, blocking is your pal.
Everyone: "Nobody is reading anymore! We're losing our ability to think for ourselves!" Plato "Hold my beer...."
