I’ve seen some folks posting about using different whistle signals to identify ICE, which seems less efficient than simply shouting “ICE! La Migra!” (Less education needed to understand a direct noun) but then again I have a pretty loud voice. Any noise is good noise though.

Happy Election Day! Remember to vote!

If you’re not registered, you can still vote in person at Lumen Field or at UW.

If you’re registered and don’t have a ballot, you can print one online, free at the library (or ngl just write your vote and deets down and put in the ballot box)

Please take this survey and share widely. Don't let them skew the results by only having rich property owners take it.

Fuck SPD. Fuck SPOG.

The Seattle public safety survey that has long monitored citizens trust in the Seattle Police Department is open until November 30th. I highly recommend everyone take it. They usually send these out to white, affluent neighborhoods 😃 #seattle #pnw #acab

Hey y'all. If you are voting in Washington, just a reminder that if you haven't dropped your ballot yet, please use a drop box if you can! Because of cutbacks and changes in USPS service, there are concerns about ballots getting the appropriate postmark. Find your closest dropbox!

@antheabutler.bsky.social wrote a whole book about this. I’m so glad I read “White Evangelical Racism” a few years ago, it is excellent and so informative. I feel like I understand the this moment we’re living in much better for reading it.

Let me just say ... i really did try to have substantive conversations about the nature of white evangelical Christianity... But was told "it would offend our readers"

The way that agenda was worded it sure seems like the admin is trying to “other” folks making complaints. Whether it’s an intentional tactic to protect themselves from liability or unconscious bias I dunno, but it’s stinks.

If this is a represented position, I’d recommend contacting your union ASAP.

Get your ballot to a drop box + How to print a replacement ballot or register in-person

See the interactive map via King County Elections. It may be too late to rely on the post office to mail your ballot ahead of the November 4 election, so anyone with a ballot still lying around should fill it out and get it to a ballot drop box (King, Pierce, Snohomish) by 8 p.m. Tuesday.

As someone who spent years of my life dedicated to the Seattle Arts and Culture scene, it was especially gross to hear Bruce Harrell credit our vibrant cultural community to… AI

The first five seconds tell me exactly how much Bruce Harrell has ever thought about art in this city: "Imagine our Culture and Arts...thing...um..."

It was surprisingly quick to whip up these “How to Report Ice” zines to go out next to the candy on the porch. Thanks to @cop-watcher.bsky.social for the stickers!

Rising Sun Produce in North Seattle is giving away produce up to $25 for those who might need help.

The city of Seattle is also doing things to help with SNAP.
