WARNING — GRAPHIC CONTENT This video is absolutely horrific. ICE shot and killed a woman in her car as she was attempting to drive away. The violence and aggression must stop. Get ICE out of our cities.

Sometimes I’m still chasing the high of Infinite Summer, when thousands of people read all 1,088 pages of Infinite Jest together, including Colin Meloy from The Decemberists. What a time.
I cannot with this girl... #BB27
BBLiveUpdaters@bbliveupdaters.bsky.social · last yr.#BB27 Kelley to Vince: legitimately - thank you for putting me up. I'm having the time of my life. My only worry is people see me as a threat. Vince assures her they don't. Kelley wonders why not - maybe because she hasn't competed yet.

iOS 26’s Liquid Glass looks like my jailbroken iPhone from 2010.
House Republicans passed the single largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in the HISTORY of our country. The GOP tax bill would deliver the largest cut to Medicaid and SNAP EVER. Repost and help me put a burning, bright spotlight on this awful disaster of a bill.
You’re not an ally if you only act when it’s convenient. CBS walking back their 50% diversity initiative for their first returnee season since it’s been implemented is the worst thing about this cast #Survivor

Coincidence that I haven’t been able to access their Pay ‘N Go site all day to process my prescription, and my local Bartell pharmacy opened late this morning? (I assume it’s open now, but I couldn’t wait longer and left.)
The Seattle Times@seattletimes.com · last yr.What isn't clear is whether the Bartell name that has been such a presence in the Seattle area will survive, with several experts warning that the ubiquitous brand could disappear.
Maybe I watched too much Mandalorian recently, but I could only think of Stormtroopers marching when I drove next to three white Teslas—all in a row—on the highway this week.

I've actively used @last.fm for more than half my life...and I'm almost 40. I got Audioscrobbler beta access in July 2004. It's my oldest social media account and even pre-dates my Gmail address. I'm oddly proud of this... www.last.fm/user/ktparker
SPC expands "significant" hail risk (2"+) to cover Seattle and Bellevue now. Also introduced a slightly higher tornado risk (5%) to parts of SW Washington east of I-5. #wawx
I only saw one Oscar-nominated movie this season, and watched it the day before the awards ceremony: Anora. I guess we picked correctly?!
Surprised to find just over 1.5 inches of new snow in West Seattle this morning! (Though this measurement came a little late, after it had already started to melt.) #wawx
#wawx #thunderstorm This storm had supercell structure and apparent twin waterspouts, here with Mark Stewart and Matthew Pfab editing the photos. I'm still not believing what I saw. Very dark at the time, but did anyone else see this near Seahurst park, South of West Seattle?
Just like in 2019, it’s the end of January and Seattle hasn’t seen a single flake of snow all winter. Just like in 2019, that’s about to change with the arrival of February. Wintry fun is in store for the next several days. Buckle up—it’s gonna be an interesting ride! ❄️🤞❄️
It’s the little things in life, like regularly beating the Wordle bot…
You know, I didn’t really use TikTok much before the “ban,” but I sure as fuck am not using it now.
No one prepared me for how hard it is to handle a dog who has dementia. Every week, she has one or two absolutely batshit, restless nights. Good luck, future me, getting to work before 8am tomorrow!

The Mountain was out Thursday morning. (I’ve lived in this house for six years, and will never get tired of the view.)
I started the year reading very consistently, but lost momentum around May. As such, I’ve only read…(checks notes)…THREE?! 1. James 2. The God of the Woods 3. Funny Story But I’m currently reading Martyr!, and hope to check another off this list by the end of the year. 💙📚
