I understand that The Fall Guy is great, but it's new. French Kiss has been fighting for its life year after year. Let's give it a chance.

French Kiss is one of my all time favorite movies.

My best friend and I met in college bc I randomly quoted it and she came from across the room and told me we were best friends now.

Seattle homies, if you need anything, Tactical Norm is here for you.
I received a report today from a community member who spotted approximately 24 new unmarked SUVs. outside the ICE facility in Tukwila, WA, just south of Seattle.
It’s hard to say for certain what this means, but it could indicate a greater deployment of personnel in the region in the near future.

This is a very niche request: anyone have a good manapua recipe? Preferably one super close to the baked ones from Chun Wah Kam? It doesn’t look like they ship frozen to the mainland, we only have steamed here, and I need it for reasons (the horrors made me sad and manapua will fix me lol)

I cried. I have been following the whole whistle saga since its inception but this summary really hammered home the SCOPE. I love humans so much.
If you are new around here and don't know how this whole out-of-control runaway-train started, I finally sent a newsletter to our readers where I explained why we fell off the face of the world after Thanksgiving. 💓

( @moryan.bsky.social started it LOL )

State Senators passed legislation Monday to create an income tax on those earning over $1 million a year, the first hurdle in what will likely prove to be a long legislative battle.

The drunk uncle theory.

You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there
agree with this (hah) but also think a particular mistake the left made for a long time online, and still makes to an extent, is failing to understand that the person whose mind you may actually change is the one reading the argument you're having, not the one you're arguing with
The secret to engaging in social media debate is knowing you will never win anyone over. The best you can hope for is to have people who already agree with tell you you're awesome. You might great a dopamine thrill from the righteousness of your anger! Fine benefits, all. But you will never win.

(2) As always: No matter what you do or how you position yourself, the GOP is going to paint you as a radical or a socialist. Might as well just do what you think is right. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/16/u...

If you’ve ever wondered who this truly impacts? My family. My child. We’ve already been hit by the shutdown of care from major hospitals in Wisconsin. Even though my insurance covers gender affirming care, my child can’t access it here, which means I can’t afford it.
Please say something
Public comment on Dr Oz's proposed rules to ban gender-affirming care for youth closes 2/17

One rule bans hospital-based care, the other eliminates Medicaid/CHIP coverage

Together they'd make care virtually unavailable nationwide, including in shield law states

This is a great program and it requires funding from community partners. For example Washington put money back in the program at the state level but the partners operating in King and Pierce County do not have the funds currently to continue. So look for those local partners & donate when you can.
The study found that children enrolled in Parton’s Imagination Library “were 5 times more likely to be interested in reading, 11 times more likely to be interested in books, and 15 times more likely to join in during shared reading, compared to children who aren't enrolled.”

Let me tell you a tale of how completely the normies have been mobilized. My 14 year-old niece has done School of Rock for the past 5 years; last summer she was part of their touring band, and the kids loved playing together so much that they decided to keep doing it. (1/?)
