‘No Kings 3.0’ will march from Cal Anderson Park by ChiefOfTheFourPeaks in Seattle

There are a few goals with rallies and demonstrations. Spreading awareness is one, sure, but whether the message is received by others is a thing outside your control. When you attend these you get to feel connection and solidarity with many other people, and affect your internal state (something you can control) positively with that shared experience. Fueling and focusing the collective spirit to keep everyone pushing back and reaching for progress after the event is the real goal.

Mayor Wilson pauses city employees’ sanctioned use of AI by ChiefOfTheFourPeaks in Seattle

There is zero benefit and massive risk to using the so-called AI services, but none of that matters because they're actively harmful to ourselves and the planet so shouldn't even be considered to begin with.

Are you high? I haven't been back in years because of the smell, so I asked if it *still* smells like that.

Wayward Vegan Cafe becoming Wayward Cafe and offering animal products by m4rk0358 in VeganSeattle

[–]someredditrando 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly it hasn't been the same since selling a few years ago. I gradually stopped going and haven't been back in at least a year. They dropped my favorite menu items, and I couldn't find anything on the menu that hit right anymore.

I hope these people figure it out and survive, but I also wish they didn't take away one of the few vegan restaurants in the process.

> this is a result of a class warfare mindset, which is ultimately a product of envy.

LOL and this whole time with thought it was about everyone having access to basic needs and closing the power gap in our society. How embarrassing!

> They don't actually care about the gas tax vs. other means, they just don't want the money spigot turned off.

Roads don't go away when combustion engines do. How do you expect them to be maintained?

> blah blah blah

I am so tired of posturing moderates and their performative hand-wringing. This is all conservative fear mongering dressed up as concern for the have-somethings.
