Dear Seattle leaders,
Friday was magical. I saw families bonding, children playing soccer in the street, strangers high-fiving, fans celebrating, and contagious camaraderie everywhere I walked.
You know this doesn’t have to be temporary, right? You really can choose to just keep our magnificent city a safe place for all of us to enjoy year round.
Enforce the laws. Clean the streets. Get the addicts into treatment and the mentally ill into compassionate care. It’s time to restore this broken city.
No more excuses. It’s really not complicated. 🇺🇸
Name one experience that’s been ruined because it’s too expensive now
I’ll start: live concerts
I still remember when you could see great bands for like $20 a ticket
Happy Father’s Day
Age 5 – Dad knows everything!
Age 7 – Dad knows a lot.
Age 10 – Maybe Dad doesn’t know everything?
Age 12 – Dad doesn’t know anything.
Age 14 – Dad lost his mind!
Age 16 – I can’t take Dad seriously.
Age 18 – What does Dad even know?
Age 22 – Dad talks nonsense!
Age 24 – I know more than Dad!
Age 26 – Turns out, Dad actually knows a few things.
Age 30 – I should probably ask Dad about this…
Age 40 – How did Dad make it through all of that?!
Age 45 – Dad was always right.
Age 50 – If only Dad were here… I’d have so much to learn.
I train at 9 am and the gym is full of retired folks who go for 3-4 hours every day.
They lift. Do some cardio. Play pickleball. Swim. Hit the sauna.
It totally kills the day, and they're super happy all the time.
If you have a proper fitness routine, "retirement" will be an absolute joy.
So let me get this straight…
Spencer Pratt runs on cleaning up the streets of Los Angeles, fixing the homeless crisis, making sure reservoirs and fire hydrants actually have water, saving dogs and making LA safer and cleaner for everyone…
…and the media calls that “MAGA”? 🤔
Since when did wanting functioning infrastructure, safe streets, and competent leadership become controversial?
Shouldn’t that be the goal of EVERY politician regardless of party?
I guess some people would rather hand out free stuff while cities continue falling apart.
Hard to know where to start with this — but GRiZTronics entry lines have now been backed up 2–3 hours just to attempt to enter the venue, with people fainting and many ultimately missing music, giving up, and heading back to camp.
What I’ve been told is now the biggest issue: since GA wristbands weren’t issued for the event, each ticket is having to be individually scanned, massively slowing down the process.
That, on top of overworked staff from everything yesterday into today, has essentially now become a perfect storm.
This entire situation has been completely disappointing, to say the absolute least.
