Yeahhhh.

Suuuuuch a bad GIDP too. Gotta beat that out.

To be clear: this WAS the reform. The NYPD refused to do it.

This is why we say the police must be abolished. Reform has been tried, and the police have shown, over and over, that they will not budge.

The only solution left is abolition.

Josh needed that. We needed that.

Go M's.

Pretty wild to see a bunch of people not realizing that they're just joking around and shooting the shit throughout the interview.

I’m so sick of this Mariners defense, man.

Seattle would do well to focus more on moving people within the city than moving people in and out of it.

So much of the city is built to usher people out of it on interstates.

Good step in this direction by prioritizing the 8 bus over an I5 ramp.

Whooops thought this was about punting games lol

I guess they just need someone from lower on the bench throw two solid innings for once like Vargas sometimes would.

It just feels like the Mariners punt more games with their pitching decisions than they need to?

I don’t know how I’d look this up.

Genuinely curious—was there a path for Washington to do some aggressive redistricting?

It’s more than you’d like, for sure.

Kyle Seager was so underrated

Over the past 20 years, Seattle lost the Sonics thanks to the stewardship of Howard Schultz, saw dozens of stores close while the company engaged in apparent union-busting, and steadily reduced its local headcount.

There's coffee everywhere, Seattle. Spend your money elsewhere.

A lot about the world is very heavy right now but if a college football podcast that got jettisoned by Vox during the pandemic for not having a marketable audience can raise this much money for refugees in Atlanta in two days then just think of all the stuff we can all do together

60 schools

Also played a role in killing the First Avenue streetcar, no?

He was one the roster as a general filler/low-level guy and Dan's overusage of him, going back to last year, had to be put to an end.

Late still, but that'd be it.

The roster is probably good enough and the AL bad enough that Dan can’t manage them out of the playoffs, but I absolutely believe he can make another critical error at the worst possible time and cut their playoff run short. Again.

So, Dan Wilson. Wrote this the day after the 2025 ALCS and still feel the same way. A team in this situation should not have someone learning on the job. open.substack.com/pub/thelight...

Big news about PROTEC17 stepping up for its CARE team workers and filing an unfair labor practice. Particularly brave to take on SPOG in this way.

Folks underestimate how many SPD cops with abhorrent incidents on their records are still making $150K+ from you and your neighbors.

Random late observation: Casey Leguminas climbing into the Carlos Vargas role, already a very silly station, has not been a net positive for your Seattle Mariners.

Kinda need the copper in there

People don’t talk enough about the CIA killing a sitting president

We are not asking Sound Transit to do something impossible. We are asking them to do what they said they would do.

Build the connection.
Build the future.
Build the damn trains.

Goodness.

Good get-right series win.

Perfect day for radio.

Go M’s.

Cops, man.
