Found out my 17-year-old has been putting raw walnut pieces in her pockets to feed and befriend crows. By her own admission, she's sort of leaning into her witch persona more by doing this. 🧙

If we promise not to bring an iced coffee into a job interview, will you promise to pay us a living wage?

A piece of political news, along with a comment made tonight while my daughter was trying out different outfits for her senior photo this weekend, got this catchy classic stuck in my head ... youtu.be/D0xIaRaFvV8?...

Tbh I really wish that the Mariners could just forfeit their last two games. They gave up so long ago.

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Most riveting thing I've seen all week

Not bad for a broken, scary, failing city where nobody wants to live

Seattle comes in at No. 4 in Oxford Economics' Global Cities Index, behind New York, London, and Paris, in the ranking of the world's largest 1,000 cities based on five criteria: economics, human capital, quality of life, environment and governance.

I grew up as a Presbyterian, the denomination that Talarico identifies with. And this isn't the first time I've heard a rabid evangelical say that a Presbyterian is going to hell. (They also say this about liberal Quakers, which I now identify as.)

Right Wing Watch @rightwingwatch.bsky.social · yesterday

Christian nationalist Mark Meckler declares that James Talarico's Senate campaign is "straight out of Satan's playbook": "I hate to say it this way, but Talafreako is just a tool for the devil."

Our dear friend gifted us her spare bean grinder in the past year or so, and it's been a lifesaver in helping us keep down the cost of our home-crafted cappuccinos. Coffee and chocolate are staples for me, and they're both SO EXPENSIVE right now.

This is happening in about 20 minutes. Second time in a few months that I've schlepped downtown for a "movie event." #PulpForever

Many economists will point out that, compared to mortgage rates over the decades, 7 percent is not very high. And they're correct. But houses also have rarely been this expensive compared to average household incomes ...

"Mortgage Rates Hit 7% as Iran War Fallout Crushes a Weak Housing Market The average rate on a 30-year mortgage in the United States jumped to 7.03 percent, putting pressure on housing affordability." www.nytimes.com/2026/09/24/b...

The baseball team I've rooted for the past 44 years is now, once again, officially out of the playoff race. Not surprising, considering everything, but still infuriating.

Frank Morrison@frankrmorrison.bsky.social · 2d ago

Well, its official. John Stanton got a nearly perfect season from his perspetive - they were somehow in it down to the last week, team finished 7th in attendance, and he doesnt have to pay more money to host playoff games. www.seattletimes.com/sports/marin...

Happy that Rizz got to make this call in one of the final days before his retirement.

I don't care what you're into, as long as it's with consenting adults and you don't crash the plane while you're on the job. (Also, how did this once-respected football coach transform into one of the least-respected U.S. senators?)

Tommy Tuberville: Many airline pilots, flight attendants, and air traffic controllers are part of the furry community. It's terrifying.

Wow. The folks who will think these ads are clever already are voting for Collins, which misses the point of ads in the first place.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4d ago

oh my goodness -- I had no idea Mike Collins's hit ads on Jon Ossoff are *this* bad. Truly abysmal stuff.

Such a great album ...

Jake Rudh@jakerudh.bsky.social · 3d ago

35 years ago today, Primal Scream released their third studio album “Screamadelica” featuring singles "Loaded" "Come Together" "Higher Than the Sun" "Don't Fight It, Feel It" and "Movin' On Up"

I’ve been upset about this for hours. Do they mean Old English? Which ended in the 11th century? Is he adapting it to sound like Beowulf? This play published in Early Modern English in 1597? Do they mean Olde English, the malt liquor? Old English, the floor cleaner? Are words real anymore?

DiscussingFilm@discussingfilm.net · 4d ago

Robert Eggers is set to direct a new film adaptation of ‘ROMEO AND JULIET’. The film will feature the actors speaking in Olde English. (Source: www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...)

We're No. 1! This team's been such a disaster.

How good was the Seahawks defense closing out Sunday's win? In the second half, the Cardinals had only two first downs and 44 yards, with one first down and 24 of those yards coming on a couple of meaningless carries in the final seconds of the game.

JSN outgained the Cardinals 155-151

This is terrible, and I say that as somebody who had a hamster that once caused a water disaster that damaged 70% of our house's interior and kept us in temporary housing for seven months. (It's a story I told on Twitter years back; maybe I'll tell it here some day when I have time.)

John Boyle@johnpboyle.bsky.social · 6d ago

Final: Seahawks 31, Cardinals 7. The Seahawks have now won 12 in a row, postseason included, the longest winning streak in franchise history. It's also their 10th straight win over the Cardinals.
