At peace, if still slightly annoyed. Seattle writer/editor, fueled primarily by coffee, lip balm, and ice cream. She/her. I’m mostly here for the cats. And the books. And the feminism. And the X-Files. Bigots can go pound sand.

Across the 3-county region in Seattle if you tell a bus driver you are going to shelter and you’ve been displaced from flooding they will not charge you fare!

It's clear from the article that ICE is *miserable* here. They're freezing their asses off and being harassed everywhere they go. Property managers aren't allowing them access to rental properties and people know their rights and aren't letting them in.
KEEP IT UP.

If Liam Neeson is gonna narrate some quack documentary we should pay Jesse Plemons 30 billion dollars to read things for two hours like “the earth is clearly round” “you should eat a healthy diet of a variety of foods and not just wet beef” & “do not suntan your butthole, it does not need that”

If we're not at war, Pete Hegseth is a murderer. If we are at war, Pete Hegseth is still a murderer. He's a murderer. And you don't need to go to The Hague to hold him accountable because there are perfectly good, American laws AGAINST MURDER.

Pete Hegseth Should Be Charged With Murder
No matter how you look at the strikes on alleged “drug boats”—as acts of war or attacks on civilians—Hegseth has committed a crime and should be prosecuted.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.
