#tacomawa

Drug addicts & gang banger's work hard to make nightly headlines a goal of making the coastal #pnw look bad. :(
Sadly, I'm hoping #TacomaWa voters say no to the EMS levy. First responders $$ end up baby sitting bad actors. :(
Lastly, #KevinSpacey , #HunterBiden , the #Trump clan kids can make their next skit in #Russia...
Maybe #MitchMcConnell had a brain pause requarding the #USA / #NRA f-ed gun saga!!!

Hey #Boston & the north east coast, stay cool!

NOFX Final Tour - Day 1- Tacoma, WA survived
Pennywise was great.
NOFX has no right be as good as they are.

The first time I ever saw NOFX was back in the 90s at Van's Warped Tour at the Tacoma Dome (parking lot). This kinda feels like coming full circle.

I really enjoyed the full play of Punk in Drublic and Wolves in Wolves Clothing, but I'm super super glad we also got some of the best cuts from War on Errorism. (Separate the Church and Skate, Idiots are Taking Over)

As Mike said, sometime last night, back when we thought we'd seen the worst president. (My paraphrase, he's more eloquent)

@KevinFreitas I think fireworks are banned in most urban areas around, yet North Tacoma sounded like a war zone until 2am last night. Zero enforcement it seemed from local authorities and utter disregard for surrounding
veterans with PTSD and doggos. #Tacoma #TacomaWa #PTSD #BanFireworks #EnforceBans

Now both of my local public radio stations have paused using Twitter.

#seattle #seattlewashington #tacomawa #tacoma #pnw #Mastodon

I’m writing today to share some important news. KNKX is indefinitely pausing our activity on Twitter as we evaluate the platform’s stance toward independent, nonprofit news organizations like NPR. We are dismayed by Twitter's choice to allow misinformation to spread on its platform, including the company’s own misleading label of our partner NPR as "state-funded media."

As an independent, nonprofit news organization, we play a vital role in the civic discourse of our community. The journalistic ethics we follow and our commitment to factual and accurate information are paramount duties of our work. The misleading labels from Twitter call our work into question at a time when the public needs trusted sources of news more than ever.

NPR announced that it is leaving the platform and we will stand with them and our partner stations in the NPR Network.

Like most public media organizations around the country, only a small percentage of our budget (less than 6%) comes from the federal government, distributed through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The vast majority of our funding comes from thousands of individual listeners who believe that independent, public media is essential to the well-being of our communities and our democracy.

“A 77-year-old fishing ship with a reputation of pollution and safety violations has been docked on the Foss Waterway in Tacoma since August after smashing into a private pier and raising concerns about its integrity. Its owner said he doesn’t know when it will leave.”

Lovely. #Tacoma #TacomaWA #PNW

@aprillia I spent way too much time trying to figure out what #TacoMawa was...

So I did a post exploring how in our local experience and in academic research, incumbent sheriffs lose. Because Ed Troyer and all, it seemed like an interesting topic to research. I also found some incredible overlaps between two sheriff races in my own county separated by decades

Anyway, somewhere along the line my blog got aggregated by this NewsBreak app and the visits/comments have been a lot

How two Thurston County sheriff races (one in the 80s and one a few weeks ago) and an academic paper give clues to the future of Ed Troyer in #piercecounty
