City Hall steps and balconies covered in students
Seattle City Hall right now, where students from around the city have gathered after a mass walk-out to protest ICE:
As someone with a profound but unrepentant emdash addiction it is driving me mad seeing commenters yell “AI slop!!!” whenever there is even a single — anywhere in the copy.
