I am extremely disappointed in Birds Connect Seattle. Preventing ecosystem-destroying sprawl by letting people move to our cities instead of exurbs is the best thing we can do for our vulnerable bird populations.

It's annoying to see the hand-wringing over a small number of wealthy people making empty threats to move because of tax increases, when there are actually people leaving desirable places en masse because they can't find affordable places to live
Picture of a book in Emily’s hand titled “Bicycle Love: Stories of Passion, Joy, and Sweat” featuring a cover illustration of a woman in bed, caught in a compromising position with a red bike.

A longtime Seattleite was recently telling me that you used to be able to grab day-of rush tickets to theater shows and concerts at the information booth at Pike Place, in the 90s. We should bring that back.

some folks in my hometown fought tooth and nail against a proposal to place big rocks around the town’s border inscribed with the message “all are welcome”
The mayor-elect of Seattle fucking Washington standing in a picket line for Starbucks workers hours after her victory speech. This rules so hard
when we were rallying support for our letter last spring, the most common comment we heard from market workers and residents by a wide margin was “it’s not safe like this.” i find it offensive when FotM and MHC dismiss these completely valid concerns out of hand.
This did in fact age well.
oh holy shit i didn’t realize these things are mutually exclusive, that’s crazy
what if there’s a registered voter in seattle named emily puke who shares my birthday and i confirmed for them the first five times instead??? huh????? what then??????????
despite literally posting a screenshot of my ballot return confirmation, i have compulsively checked the king county tracker at least half a dozen times just to be extra, extra sure
Eight months ago, Katie Wilson declared her intention to run and all the conventional powers-that-be said she didn't stand a chance of winning.
Remember that we don't always know what is possible.

Disappointingly, Pike Place has removed their outdoor seating. Hopefully they will restore it and put out some heaters. This street can contribute to the market thriving year round with thoughtful activation.

ahhhhhh i’m homesick and emotional !!!!
gOD, she’s good. and she’s right!! my heart swells with joy and HOPE when I think of Katie leading our city. harrell’s done plenty to piss me off, but this isn’t a lesser of two evils situation or an act of petty defiance. i cast my vote because i believe in katie wilson and i believe in seattle.
PSA for Seattle procrastinators: If you're voting today or tomorrow, USE A DROP BOX, NOT THE MAIL! The USPS won't guarantee your timely ballot is postmarked on time.

I’ve known & worked with Katie for almost a decade. I’ve watched her unfailingly fight for the needs & rights of working class people in Seattle. I’ve found Katie next to me at canvasses, at picket lines, & at City Hall, & always on the right side of things. Vote Katie Wilson. She’ll fight for YOU.
extremely bummed that I’m out of town on election day, but I’ll be up at 6am local time to check the first ballot drop and join the celebration from many miles away. if you haven’t already—VOTE @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social 🎉🎉🎉
