I have no time for fascists. I love hiking (no matter the season), photography (no heavy editing, sometimes touch ups on my iPhone). 🍳🏳️🌈 🩷💛💙
Hmm so #seattle has a #chiefofpolice who doesn’t have his main residence in the city in which he works and is gone on the weekends. Either he isn’t capable of doing his job, or his narrative that Seattle is unsafe is false & he feels comfortable leaving on the weekends. Halfway across the country.
Bucket list locale checked off and it was truly breathtaking. 🥹 #haystackrock #cannonbeach #oregon #blackandwhitephotography #microfourthirds #omsystem #om3 #pnw #beach #summer
Finally Prius drivers are being recognized as the cause of 90% of the area’s traffic slowdowns.
The Needling@theneedling.com · 2mo ago“Admiring the dulcet honks of a BMW stuck behind a flock of Priuses stretched across I-90 is all over now because this train packed with poors is racing past us as fast as the slowest car on the bridge."
Hey @mayorofseattle.bsky.social look what he’s doing instead of …. Everything you’re (not) doing. Who is #seattle ‘s Mamdani? Where are they?
HOW ABOUT NOW? @governorferguson.bsky.social @murray.senate.gov @jayapal.house.gov
the Calamity@thecalamitous.bsky.social · 3mo agoWashington state really needs to stop paying federal taxes. @murray.senate.gov @governorferguson.bsky.social @jayapal.house.gov This is taxation without any representation whatsoever. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Can someone please have @mayorofseattle.bsky.social contact him and find out how to not be a disappointment?
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@mayor.nyc.gov · 3mo agoWhen we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.
This bullshit really makes me wonder just what the tiny hands man has on the people in his admin and on Congress. Really. Again, WA, stop paying federal taxes-no taxation without representation!! @governorferguson.bsky.social @murray.senate.gov @jayapal.house.gov #releasethefiles #epstein #antifa

This shit drives me insane. Got here at 7:30am to catch the earlier bus (usually get the 7:47). However, it never changed from 3 minutes to arrival time. That bus just never came. It’s so great. I love how reliable #publictransit in #seattle is. I ALWAYS have problems with this line!!
Beautiful view from a hike yesterday. Back in a random era of black and white shooting, again. SOOC. #blackandwhitephotography #m43 #mtsi #washington #photography #mountain #spring #outdoors #hike #omsystem #om3
Huh. I posted this 4 months ago. Can we do it now? @governorferguson.bsky.social @murray.senate.gov
the Calamity@thecalamitous.bsky.social · 9mo agoHuh. When I kept imploring our elected officials to stop sending our tax dollars to the Feds and everyone said it couldn’t be done. #cascadia @governorferguson.bsky.social let’s please do this. Please. I don’t want to fund this federal government anymore. medium.com/@carmitage/e...
Oh no. They can’t just take naps and claim them as overtime now. They actually have to WORK for their pay! 😱 #seattle #defundthepolice

Trump administration orders dismantling of the U.S. Forest Service
Late Tuesday afternoon, with the subtlety of a wrecking ball and the morality of a foreclosure notice, the Trump administration announced the most devastating attack on the U.S. Forest Service in the ...

There have been 5 kidnappings by ice within a few miles of my home in the last week. #seattle has no idea. People are shocked when they hear it’s happening here. WAKE THE FUCK UP. #iceishere #fuckice
Hey @mayorofseattle.bsky.social why are SPD vehicles and officers present when ice is kidnapping our neighbors?!?!?!?!?? @cascadiarevolting.bsky.social fyi
So, what’s changed after now 3 of theses scheduled, predictable, #protests? I understand they help build #community. But that’s literally it. Nothing changes. In fact, it’s been getting worse all the time. So millions show up for a few hours. And then? Nothing. Back to regular life. 🧵
Some of my #flowers after the rain in #Seattle yesterday. SOOC. #spring #photography #pnw #om3 #omsystem #m43 #microfourthirds
I love #spring in #seattle! So many #flowers and cherry blossoms and good light. SOOC #photography #omsystem #om3 #microfourthirds #m43
And people in #seattle still driving #tesla vehicles. Even still BUYING them. Shameful!
Ben Lorber@benlorber8.bsky.social · 7mo agoYesterday Elon Musk retweeted "white solidarity is the only way to survive". In our numb overwhelmed media environment it barely made headlines that the world's richest man endorsed blood-curdling white nationalism.

Downtown Seattle, March 18, 2026. Ricoh GRIIIX with a recipe, SOOC. I love how fake it looks! I’m not sure what caused the effect. #photography #ricoh #ricohgriiix #seattle
Hey @mayorofseattle.bsky.social and other #Seattle politicians, why don’t we have a vacant home tax? Do you know how many problems that would solve? Who can do this?
Abandoned truck on a 4-mile wander yesterday. I love exploring on foot! Even if it’s just leaving my house and walking until I hit water. #photography #om3 #m43 #microfourthirds #omsystem #seattle #abandoned
