Someone just posted a thing about Kshama Sawant with the unions hash tag and I'm just ... no. I'm sorry. It should be obvious that somebody who tried to undermine unions in her own town...
Anyway. Enough scrolling for a few hours.

Bringing this set of statements from Seattle Mayor Wilson posted originally a few days ago over from elsewhere. It'll be a thread because it's a bunch of images, but I will of course alt-text.

What is going on with the Seattle Times writing a whole article about a mediocre cafe closing?
Ah. There it is.
“The city of Seattle doesn’t take into consideration these little businesses don’t have deep pockets,” she said. "The impact of a $1.75 (minimum wage) raise means $50,000 out of my pocket"
[Taps sign]
The main objective of legacy newspapers is as a way for the rich to erode worker power.

Please, please let this create room for SPOG to not pick somebody toxic.
Happy No More Harrell and Nelson Day to all who celebrate!
And Happy Wilson Day One!
I've read this Ron Davis piece about Funded Inclusionary Zoning three times and I still don't understand the thing he's proposing as a fix towards the end.
This is probably going to be an important thing for #housing this year - particulatly in #Seattle.
Do you get what he's proposing?
Op-Ed: Seattle’s Path to Fund Inclusionary Zoning and Boost Homebuilding » The Urbanist
# Funded inclusionary zoning unlocks the benefits of inclusionary zoning while offsetting its harms. It’s a path to more market-rate housing and more subsidized affordable housing. While funded inclusionary zoning risks creating a dangerous rift in our pro-housing coalition, amending this policy to allow for funded in-lieu fees would sidestep this issue, argues Ron Davis.

As everyone here knows, I won't read #SeattleTimes columnist Danny Westneat.
But ... impossible not to notice that Gov Ferguson splashed his 180 turn on taxing the rich *a single day after* Danny boy's column with a headline about taxing the rich bring so hot right now.
Did Ferguson take his cue from Danny boy?
