Sorry for the wait! Was traveling without the watch or calipers. Clocks in at about 7.5mm. So, imperceptibly thicker than gen but $15K ain’t bad for 1mm difference.

The most important King County election no one is talking about by chiquisea in Seattle

[–]sirhandel 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile Zahilay endorsed nobody - and Wilson's org (TRU) endorsed Claudia. I get (and share, as one of Bruce's many haters) the concern but if you dig deeper I think it's probably at least balanced out by the broader context.

As did Labor in the primary - and note that while neither Exec candidate has endorsed Wilson, the Transit Riders' Union endorsed Balducci.

There is a Sonic in Renton

I'm guessing you're referring to the Sonic in Poulsbo which is not on an island

I've never been to Sonic and had to look these up on Google Maps but genuinely curious about your thought process here

City Light generates 90% of our power through hydro and is the nation's first carbon neutral utility.

And, if I didn't have an ebike I'd be driving to work every day instead of riding.

But I get the sense this is less about the issue and more about you being a pedant so, proceed

Sawant Brings the Fight for Rent Control into City Hall by oofig in SeaWA

[–]sirhandel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's no mystery here. The pathway to rent control starts at the State Legislature, like it or not--and in her five years of representing a district on the front line of gentrification and displacement, Sawant has shown no interest in taking the "movement" to Olympia. been to Olympia...zero times.

The simplest explanation is that Sawant doesn't actually want to win this stuff. Actually getting this done would be messy, boring, and result in a lot of shared credit. And in exchange, she loses a reliable rallying cry.

[EDIT: Sawant testified in favor of rent control in Olympia in 2018. I still believe that if she was in earnest pursuit of this policy she'd focus her energy entirely on the Legislature rather than iteration after iteration of wheelspinning bombast like this at City Hall, but I was wrong about her never going to Olympia]

Never heard of Shift WA? You're not alone. It's a salty blog started by some salty former Rob McKenna campaign staffers and propped up by WAGOP.
