You have to send this link to everyone you know who voted I Seattle: info.kingcounty.gov/kcelections/... It takes like 30 seconds to make sure your vote was counted. Folks on here have all seen this probably, but your friends and family might not have!

“Social housing will be very important to future growth of the CID, to bring more land into permanent public ownership and to make more units that working class people in the CID can afford...” said Chrissy Shimizu, ED for Puget Sound Sage. iexaminer.org/advocacy-acq...

Hey, asking as someone who until recently was an editor at USA TODAY: What the fuck is this?

A new study from @mmfa.bsky.social reaches the obvious conclusion: "The right dominates the online media ecosystem, seeping into sports, comedy, and other supposedly nonpolitical spaces" This is, IMO, the single greatest threat to the left in the US, and the one to which it is most blind.

Packed house in Benaroya Hall last night to listen to Ta-Nehisi Coates! It was such a privilege to listen to this dialogue on highlighting the importance of narrative as a tether between person & place, challenging myths of US nationalism, and the deeply personal & liberatory work of writing.

Facts 👏

Congratulations to all of the organizers and volunteers with @houseourneighbors.bsky.social on a blowout victory tonight for Prop 1A! 💛🥳 Let’s build social housing, Seattle!

Don’t forget to vote [something more left-leaning] in November!

😂

Attended the wonderful @deanspade.bsky.social’s book release of “Love in a F*cked Up World” last night at Elliott Bay. I’ve seen organizing spaces fall apart because of our messy relationships with one another. Dean’s book provides another tool for us to study and practice. Thank you! 💛🙏

Week 1 at the County ✅ Got to write our MLK Proclamation, which was presented at the annual celebration last night. Turning my sights towards implementing the County’s Human and Civil Rights Commission next. So excited to be hitting the ground running with such a supportive team 💪

First day! 🤓 Excited to join the King County Executive’s Office of Equity and Race and Social Justice as a Project Specialist ✏️

Last selfie with this team crossing the blue bridge! Thank you @tammymorales.bsky.social for your incredible leadership these past five years, both on snd off the dais. And thanks for the new mug 😄

If you're against adding housing supply because you don't think it will produce affordable housing, just wait until you hear what not adding supply does to housing affordability.

Had a blast knocking on doors in south Seattle for Prop 1A with @tammymorales.bsky.social 🏘️ Ballots drop in a few weeks and the election is February 11th. Get involved here: www.letsbuildsocialhousing.org

Tammy has been a superstar councilor and an incredible partner for young people in her district. When we heard that she was resigning, we were distraught. When we heard why, we were enraged. We helped write an op-ed detailing why. #ResignNelson

eventually voting against Tanya Woo will become an annual Seattle tradition, like SeaFair

Thank you for your service Tammy Morales! Unfortunately, I’m seeing a trend where both Kristen Harris-Tally and Tammy Morales decide not to continue representing my community in the Rainier Valley because the leaders of their party don’t treat them with the professionalism and respect they deserve.

Tammy, as a woman of color, almost certainly faced rhetoric and harassment in private even worse than what we saw in Council chambers. None of us safe on the outside has any right to demand she continue to endure it.

I'm absolutely gutted. It was extremely hard to watch my councilmember, who championed policy that protected my neighbors and me, get berated, gaslighted, and lied about by her colleagues. I deeply appreciate CM Morales and her team, and I hope they get some much deserved peace

Congratulations and welcome to @alexis4seattle.bsky.social at City Hall! (Featuring @tammymorales.bsky.social and @jessefranz.bsky.social 😊)

A reminder that just because a policy is popular doesn't make it right.

🙏
