It's game time / Election Day! I'm starting a thread here for our team's rapid election rumor research. Here's our first rumor of the day, malfunctioning scanners in NY (this is true!) becoming wrapped into "rigged election" conspiracy theories (this is false!). bsky.app/profile/kate...
We have our 1st reports of election machines malfunctioning in Westchester, NY. This is spreading w/ a conspiratorial framing on the right. Very similar to Maricopa 2022. Machines sometimes hiccup. It's not intentional. There are remedies: secure containers for your ballots to be counted later.
Post Halloween walk through Watcom Falls Park. The number of trick-or-treaters were few although our decorations were “marvelous!”
Today was only the second time I visited Watcom Falls. The first time was late summer and the “falls” were meh. This time there was more water and I could appreciate the recover after the big bhp gasoline explosion. cob.org/services/env...

Wow I learned from this op-ed that Seattle has more public golf holes (81) than year-round lap lanes (79)! Seattle is extremely under-pooled. Look at that huge gap in D2! A single pool south of I-90. @cmeddielin.seattle.gov

The buildings on the mesa at Puye Cliff Dwellings to celebrate Indigenous Peoples' Day. The home is mostly new, built by teens from the tribe to preserve the old building techniques. There were amazing cliff dwellings below, where they'd spend part of the year. #BlueSkyMonday #MountainMonday
Whirlwind four day drive excursion (road trip!) to visit my 95 year old mom in #SanFrancisco and my son at the University in #Eugene OR. Blue Angels gave us a free air show as we drove across the SFBay Bridge. Got breakfast at Mandy’s diner and the kids went to the pumpkin patch to gather and carve.
As usual, everyone should be listening to OTM. I was especially struck by the ideas in the third segment about human progress and why some people try to thwart it.
