@constans Definitely forced to say the pledge every single day in school growing up in TX. In high school, had friends sent to principal for not standing up during the pledge. It was very mandatory.
@jasmine_keith 13 and older is only for certain medical things, but not immunizations. Also the product isn’t pulled from shelves in other states, just less accessible for people who do want it.
@CardioNP @AaronGoodman33 A massage therapist is not a doctor. I wouldn’t trust their recommendation to take anything. I trust them to physically manipulate my body tissues, because that is their training, not meds or supplements.
@Dpmt@daeshikjr There was a group working to get an East King County PUD on the ballot back in 2022. Not sure what came of the group since I guess the measure didn’t pass? But this may be a good catalyst for them to get back to the fight and you could join them!
@ronpdavis I’ve lived in seattle for 13 yrs and downtown has always been the most boring part to me. Amazon workers going into the office 5 days a week isn’t going to change that. Seattle just has more interesting neighborhoods, and always has.
@DivestSPD@OPASeattle 10 yrs ago on my bike downtown, chased by a taxi driver screaming out his window “I’ll hunt you down and rape you in the street.” called SPD and they said they could come to my house “next week” to take the report. They refused to take license plate # or info over the phone.
@GloamingMind @typewriteralley Arrogance and individualism as cultural touchstones, car-centric development, and now add a novel virus allowed to spread for 5 years that causes literal brain damage. I guess I assumed the first part was well-known. Drivers here have always been terrible, now considerably worse.
@thebethocracy @oowm@KingCountyMetro@TheORCACard@MyCommTrans At the Shoreline South station opening yesterday, I was told “these stress Boops are only for children.” And the line for the claw machine for plushy Boop in Lynnwood was at least 100 people long right around 4 pm. So even being in town, I got no Boops.
