I'm going to post this video every day until the election

Why would the world’s richest man be “f****d” if Donald Trump loses? One word: Accountability.

RETWEET this. Every day. Until Election Day. Anyone anywhere in America who tells you Donald Trump will be better for the economy needs this tweeted at them IMMEDIATELY.

The mating call of the furries. #SOTU #sotu2023

@TomFitton This is embarrassingly stupid.

I'm concerned about the health and safety of vaccinated NFL players.

OK so I'm angry, really angry, that there's no meaningful treatment for Alzheimer's Disease. thefp.com/p/where-is-the…

Florida Heads Down a Dangerous COVID Road medscape.com/viewarticle/98…

I live up on this hill. I've walked up and down so many times over the 10+ years. If that thing was still there, I would take it ALL the time. ALL THE TIME. I agree with the comments, we don't need to lanes of cars going up and down. Bring it back, #Seattle

@nytegan Other signs: Neil Vigdor In Maricopa County, Ariz., Sheriff Paul Penzone admonished Wendy Rogers, an election-denying state senator, for inciting a Saturday protest at a vote-tally center. He said not only could she be held criminally liable, but she should pay for security.

This is a huge upset, sending to Congress an intriguing & likable newcomer in a Republican district, all because of Trump’s vengeance & eggshell ego. Yayy for democracy.

Interesting. I hate it when “the media” get blamed for misinformation. medpagetoday.com/opinion/second…

Seattle’s City Council earlier voted unanimously to phase out gas-powered leaf blowers, those toxic, ear-splitting machines. The fight is not over! It now needs a tiny budget appropriation to move ahead. Join QuietCleanSeattle.org and make your voice heard.

@DocJeffD Thought this James Fallows piece was interesting: open.substack.com/pub/fallows/p/…

@seattleshines AP Diaz: We are happy you’re coming to Seattle! We hope you will bring fresh eyes and enthusiasm to our effort to rid Seattle of gas leaf blowers. Just a few years has made this change very doable. news.usc.edu/185057/usc-bat…

@charlesornstein This is so immensely horrible, on so many levels.

This is a staggering thing.

@SandiDoughton @seattletimes Wow!

A first (and probably last) for me: A picture I shot on the cover of ⁦@seattletimes⁩ PacificNW Magazine

@DrTomFrieden And please don’t forget that old sage, “Wash your hands!” Often overlooked, but hands are everywhere, including your face and nose. I imagine that everything I touch “out there” is covered with a thin layer of pet poop, and treat my hands accordingly.

There’s no guarantee that Omicron is the worst this virus will throw at us. We must get past partisanship and pandemic fatigue and use the tools we have to fight Covid: vaccines, masks, ventilation, testing, effective treatments.

@dahliabazzaz The booster was worse than the other two doses for me. The joint and muscle aches were more intense and my fever was higher. But one night and part of the next day and I was good to go. Meanwhile, Glen, with Pfizer booster, was a little tired. Period.

@jontalton We just watched it. A little too slapsticky but exactly right! Streep creepily good as the Trump-like president.

Highly recommended: “Don’t Look Up” on Netflix. Perfectly captures today’s zeitgeist in an apocalyptic story.

@dahliabazzaz Yak Trax or similar on your feet when it gets icy will help a lot. Take care of yourself, gonna get slippery.
