Black Olives Matter!

American was driving a brand new 2026 car The car gave her an alert that said it couldn’t see her eyes. The car then automatically disabled the gas and slowed down enough that it could have caused an accident She had to lean toward so the car’s facial recognition could register her eyes and stop the “kill switch” because the car thought she might be asleep “It was a 6 lane highway and all of a sudden the gas stopped working and I'm pressing on the gas. I can't get the car to go. So the car is dinging, it's making all this noise and I can't figure out what's going on. And I look at the dashboard and in English it says, sit up straight. We can't find your eyes. Why? Why do you need to see my eyes? — when I sat upright, the gas would work once again. And so I pressed the gas, but I was slowing down enough that it was gonna cause a traffic hazard. And the thing is, it knew I wasn't asleep because I was pressing on the gas. So it knew I was awake. It just wanted to see my eyes. So once I set upright and leaned forward, I guess it did facial recognition. And then it says, may I send you these results to a third party” This is horrifying considering the new mandate to have kill switches in every new vehicle by 2027. It looks like it’s already happening but overseas, we’re just next This technology can and will be abused by the government

Kommissar Katie Wilson…. “…. Do you deserve to make a million dollars, John?” AWKWARD laugh…… This woman fell down the stupid tree and hit every branch.

Seattle AI founder looks to leave as taxes rise, ‘Everybody that I know… is in the process of leaving’ | Rachel del Guidice, Fox News A Seattle AI startup founder says he’s preparing to leave the city as taxes rise, warning that many entrepreneurs are already heading for the exits. "We're out looking for an alternative," Jesse Proudman, president and CTO of Venice.ai, a privacy-focused unrestricted generative AI platform, told Fox News Digital in an interview Friday. "So we were looking in Nevada, we're looking in Texas and Austin, we're looking at Nashville and Florida," Proudman said. "And these are climates where the business community is vibrant. They're climates where the government is encouraging entrepreneurship, where they're welcoming people, and they're not villainizing those who have built something." Proudman said he has been in Washington state for 28 years, and that Venice.ai is his third startup. He started his first company when he was 13. "Seattle used to be a place where you were excited to build something, where it was celebrated, where you could imagine creating something from nothing and that you could manifest that," Proudman said. "And for many years, for probably 20 years, that was the culture here," he added. "We had a vibrant startup community. We had a very supportive startup community. And the ecosystem worked. It helped build the companies. And then, for whatever reason, sort of over the last four or five years, we've seen this shift where entrepreneurship is now villainized. And it's an unfortunate and sad shift in what otherwise has been a phenomenal place to run businesses." In March, Washington state Democrats passed the "millionaires tax," which Democratic Gov. Bob Ferguson signed on March 30. It's the state's first-ever income tax, pushed by progressives and socialists and opposed by conservatives. The Wall Street Journal editorial board called the new tax a "con" after its passage that will "inevitably capture the middle class." Proudman told Fox News Digital that he has similar concerns. "They're beginning with millionaires because that's an easier place to sell it. It's obvious that they intend to apply this to everybody," he said. Proudman said that his concern is that Washington state Sen. Jamie Pedersen, who sponsored the millionaires tax, intends to extend the tax beyond millionaires. "He said he intends to apply it to everybody and, quite frankly, its implication is that Washington will become the highest tax state in the country," Proudman said of Pedersen. "It doesn't make sense to continue to live here if you have mobility." During a recent event at Seattle University, Mayor Katie Wilson, a self-described democratic socialist, laughed and appeared to dismiss the possibility that millionaires would leave the state. "I think the claims that millionaires are going to leave our state are, like, super overblown. And if — the ones that leave, like, bye," Wilson said. Proudman sees a more stark situation. "The reality is everybody that I know that has means to leave has either left or is in the process of leaving," he said. "They've listed their homes, they're shopping elsewhere," Proudman continued. "And again, it's like, you don't want to be where you're not part of the community, where it doesn't feel like you're welcome. And so the mayor, whose job it is, is to build a vibrant city, is telling the people who have built companies here, who have created jobs in this city and this state that they're not wanted here." "It's the same thing that happened in California with Elon Musk," he added. "Again, he went to Texas. Like, you're not wanted, you'll move to a climate where you are." According to the Tax Foundation, the city of Seattle has the highest combined state and local sales tax rate, at 10.35%. foxnews.com/media/seattle-…

@LWilliamIII Hence my fake identity on this app.

@try_thinking0 I can’t believe I’m just seeing this now. Of course a couple of years this would’ve gotten a person in a lot of trouble.

@LWilliamIII @walterkirn Another vote for Bar Gernika!

@walterkirn Killer Basque restaurant there!!

Boise really is quite a pleasant city. One place I haven't been much. Enjoying it. I know it has growth frustrations etc but it's a civilized spot.

A forensic audit of the King County Regional Homelessness Authority dropped this week. Most coverage is leading with $13 million in unaccounted public funds. That number matters. But the audit itself says something more important, and worse. /1

Today, @seattletimes introduced us to Seattleite Adriana: 33, $60K at a catering job, seven roommates in a Green Lake boardinghouse. Sympathetic. Specific. But the piece is quiet on the structure. Let's think about those costs not mentioned, shall we? /1 #Echobox=1777814893-3" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">seattletimes.com/business/livin…

Rolling Stone moved Eric Clapton down from the top 10 of greatest guitar players of all time to 35 because he admitted to being Covid "vaccine" injured & refused to discriminate on entry to his concerts based on "vaccine" status. They even admit the reasoning in the explanation!

@BittertotheEnd @AlexBerenson lol she deleted her post!!!

@AlexBerenson They've started in on REI now...😒 x.com/PramilaJayapal…

So Seattle is about to find out it’s not New York or San Francisco or LA or even Chicago, it’s not a financial or tech or cultural world leader, it has lousy weather and second-tier higher ed, and if it makes business too hard business will just leave

These 2 things are paradoxically true for #Seattle Sunday: 1- Seattle is indeed going to break a record high. 2 -It’s not *really* record heat. What? 🤯 Get the scoop in the latest post on the Emerald City Weather Blog: emeraldcityweather.com/seattle-to-bak…

PORTLAND OREGON ATHLETIC MAC CLUB CAR BOMBER’S NAME STILL WON’T BE RELEASED BY POLICE OR MAYOR WILSON….NOW THAT’S SOMEWHAT SUSPICIOUS AND REVEALING ISN’T IT ?

WHO WAS THE MAC CLUB BOMBER I can report the identity of the deceased driver: Bruce Valentine Whitman, a former MAC bartender and Portland resident. A source with direct knowledge of the investigation confirmed his identity. PPB and the FBI have not yet established motive. Portland had met Bruce Whitman once before. In 2015, he dyed his chickens pink with beet juice and Kool-Aid and released them on the city’s waterfront, telling reporters he wanted to make people smile. In the early morning hours after a violent May Day, a car loaded with multiple improvised explosive devices crashed through the front doors of the Multnomah Athletic Club — the building where Whitman had worked as a bartender — and caught fire. The crash kill the driver and detonated some of the explosives inside the vehicle. PPB and ATF investigators are still on scene, with robots actively locating and handling additional devices found within the vehicle. The FBI is jointly investigating. A source with direct knowledge of Whitman’s time at the MAC described him plainly: “The guy was a left-wing anti-capitalist antifa whack job.” The source confirmed he struggled with mental health issues and that Whitman harbored a specific, personal grudge against MAC management. Whitman was involved in a unionization effort at the MAC. The drive failed, and sources suggest he harbored significant resentment over how management handled it. His departure from the club was not amicable. His political views appear consistent with that resentment — a Bernie Sanders supporter whose anti-capitalist worldview put him squarely in the ideological orbit Portland’s radical left has spent years cultivating. THE CITY THAT BUILT THIS Portland’s DSA-aligned city councilors didn’t hand Whitman the pipe bomb. But they — along with the broader organized radical left that holds real institutional power — built the cultural and political environment that produced him. Councilor Angelita Morillo, a proud DSA member, has called for ICE to be dismantled “brick by brick” and described federal agents as a “modern-day gestapo”. Shortly before May Day, she posted a video addressing workers and activists. Her message: unionization and peaceful organizing were the nice way to fight. The hard way, she implied, remained an option. That is the language of radicalization dressed in the vocabulary of governance. And it finds its audience. Bruce Whitman was not a soldier in an organized movement. He was a disgruntled former employee with a grudge and a history of mental illness who built a bomb. But he was also a man shaped by a city whose elected leaders treat anti-capitalist fury as a legitimate governing philosophy — and whose rhetoric tells people like him, every single day, that the institutions arrayed against them deserve to be destroyed. Portland’s radical left didn’t pull the trigger. But they spent years painting the target. The investigation is ongoing. No motive has been officially established.
