HEY EVERYBODY DOING THIS

You need to talk about it. At least to say you did it, that you were there.

Media's not reporting it. The fash podcaster littleman was literally the ONLY media showing up.

YOU HAVE TO REPORT IT INSTEAD.

Which is why I'm writing all this up. WE have to spread the news, because THEY WILL NOT.

hm what else

The non-Tesla car dealership next door had to set up traffic monitors because the crowd on sidewalks meant they couldn't see the road on the way out. We weren't blocking the driveway at all, we just blocked the view by being there. They weren't mad - after all, we weren't protesting _them_.

Lots of people wanted photos of my sign. I think I want to change "DO NOT" to "DON'T" since

DON'T buy
CARS from
NA-zi
ASS-holes

is a good chant rhythm. (Repeat 3x, then "Don't! Buy! their CARS!" over the same beat count.)

#TeslaTakedown #lynnwood #seattle #cascadia #CascadiaStrong

But yeah, even in Lynnwood, it was overwhelmingly on our side. _Overwhelmingly_, and _enthusiastically_. Which isn't that surprising but is good to have confirmed.

#TeslaTakedown #lynnwood #seattle #cascadia #CascadiaStrong

There was one little fash man podcaster doing a livestream while walking down the sidewalk through the crowd - once only, I think - with a couple of his buds behind him,. talking to his audience of maybe tens about how "pathetic" all these people were with "nothing better to do" on a Saturday afternoon, and I wish I'd turned around and gone into my "aren't you so pathetic! what a good li'l booklicker! " doggie voice before delivering commentary about how if protesting is pathetic showing up to _cover_ a protest must be a whole 'nother _world_ of pathetic but alas, I didn't.

there's always next time

#TeslaTakedown #lynnwood #seattle #cascadia

Okay so it was hard to get photos but I think we had nearly 300 (eta: Anna said they did a count of 425!) - I could count about that and I'm pretty sure I missed some but I also could've double-counted from across the street - at Lynnwood Tesla.

(It's hard to count through moving cars.)

That's pretty good.

Drivers honked a LOT of support. The counter-crowd was functionally _nonexistent_ - we had a couple of drive-by finger-throwers and swearers, but I only saw one (1) MAGAt hat. Which is kinda nuts.

For #NYE 2024 at the #SpaceNeedle in #Seattle, I organized a peaceful protest to call for a permanent ceasefire in #Israel, & a local propagandist wrote a blog post about me being antisemitic & a "terrorist sympathizer". But yeah this sieg heiling mofo is so "pro Israel". #Zionism = white supremacy.

For #Seattle folks, I've heard good things about the documentary No Other Land about a young Palestinian, Basel Adra, fighting his communities expulsion and along the way he meets and Israeli journalist. Playing at NW Film Forum starting this Thursday and a few other places around town.

Over 900 people assembled outside of #Seattle Children’s Hospital on Saturday, in protest of the organization’s decision to unilaterally discontinue healthcare for its transgender youth.

Know what else is special about this one? It was organized by the hospital's own staff.

Inside: Speaker highlights, queer karaoke, and a homemade zine from "the vegan tranarchist".

Alright, #Introduction time!

Mid 30s, Cis, She/her. Fueled by coffee, cheese, and salt. Currently navigating my place on the Ace spectrum. I'm big into story-driven single player games, art, design, cooking, and corgis. Trying to find ways to connect with others of similar interests and stories.

I'm originally from #WichitaKS but currently live in the #Seattle area with my spouse and 4 pets (2 corgis, 2 cats - a standard-issue brown tabby, and a pixie bob)

I don't have any idea how likely this is to make it out, but some fucked up Rs are trying to remove Washington state's amazing voting through mail in ballots. This morning is a great time to do a quick "NO THANK YOU" comment on this bill: https://app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/1584

Does anyone have connections with the media outlets in the Seattle area? Thinking about a good 100 mile radius in and around the city. Trying to email out a press release in regard to a missing woman from Port Angeles. I could use all the help I can get.

Fight the Rich

Kshama Sawant

"I served as the only socialist on the Seattle City Council for ten years. In that decade, my council office led movements of working people to win historic victories, including the highest minimum wage in the country. I also saw firsthand how every part of the political establishment, led by big business and the Democratic Party, viciously opposed virtually every pro-worker piece of legislation we fought for. I saw how all the cogs of the capitalist machine — the establishment politicians, the courts, the police, the NGO leaders, and sadly many labor leaders — all work in concert together against the interests of workers.

I can tell you from my experience — and it is increasingly evident to working people — that this system is completely irredeemable, as are both U.S. political parties."

[Kshama Sawant is a revolutionary socialist, a founding member of Workers Strike Back, and a former Seattle City Councilmember who helped win the first $15/hour minimum wage in a major city and the Amazon Tax on wealthy corporations to fund affordable housing.]

Greetings all, it’s the weekly #washingtonstate #kingcounty (that is, #seattle and environs) #COVID #COVID19 #wastewater toots.

Let's start with the West Point (WSPT) sewage treatment plant: the Sars-CoV-2 7-day rolling average came back down to its recent fairly low numbers this week after a bump up last week. The last 7DRA number was calculated on 12/22.

WSPT is one of three King County(-ish) sewersheds in this dataset. You can find overviews, individual sewershed results, and a breakdown of variants for the state wastewater surveillance program, along with other metrics like case counts and hospitalizations for Covid-19 and other respiratory illnesses, at https://doh.wa.gov/data-and-statistical-reports/diseases-and-chronic-conditions/communicable-disease-surveillance-data/respiratory-illness-data-dashboard#WasteWater. If you go to the page and click "learn more" in the statewide view tab, you can find out lots of details about how these data are calculated and how to interpret them. The dashboard gets updated every Wednesday (generally).

Note: when the state switched over to new data providers in September, they also removed the previous historical data from the graphical interface. That's because the two providers used different methodologies that made direct comparisons difficult. Unfortunately, it also removed valuable context for interpreting the results. So, keep in mind we're just seeing what happened in September 2023 until now.

BREAKING 🚨

Starting at 7pm tonight the lawyer, Tal Becker, who represented Israel at the ICJ against South Africa will be giving a talk at the Seattle Tennis Club to genocide supporters.

Seattle Tennis Club is located at 922 McGilvra Blvd E. I hear there will be a protest. Palestinian flags and photos of martyrs are encouraged. Arrive early. DM for meeting location.

If we raise $1,201 a day every day through the end of 2024, we can reach our $50k goal!

@nullagent was attacked by a group of civilians at a protest 2 months ago, and has suffered from a concussion + depression as a result.

He'd love to sue the pants off those racist motherfuckers and push the "justice" system for criminal charges as well.
