@sardixit.bsky.social is fucking fire. Way to call out when Bingle won't stand with us.

Involuntary treatment in WA isn't working. Here’s why
Lawmakers, health officials and the governor have all said they’d like to revamp the involuntary treatment system. But many related laws aren't being used.

@sardixit.bsky.social response to a new jail is spot on. Incarceration is not an effective way to reduce crime.

In fact, crime rates go up when incarceration rates go up.

We need to prioritize behavior health units. Cops in uniform and with a gun will never be able to build relationships with the impoverished and traumatized.

Kate Telis answer was spot on.

@sardixit.bsky.social spoke out against sprall that eats up natural resources and farms, and creates expensive travel and exacerbates climate change.

Also, Johnathan Bingle is being really petty. To what end?

Response to rising eviction rates.

Keeping people housed is the best way to deter homelessness. It's cheaper for tax payers too.

We need all types of housing for all types of people. A one sized fits all building approach is not founded in data.

Policing and cameras are not deterring drag racing in communities.

We need walkable communities that are rich in amenities. #15minutecity
