Hey #Seattle #tech folks. A friend of a friend is in need of some empathetic helpdesk technician level assistance in choosing a new Windows PC and then getting their data moved over to it from their old machine.
It's probably a hour to gather their requirements and recommend a decent PC and then an afternoon on-site to help them migrate data and install apps.
Preference for female/femme folks as this will be an in-person gig for a woman.
I've never seen Sleepless in Seattle despite living in the city. :P #Seattle
I'm generally more optimistic about #washington state and #seattle area politics (vs national), but my outlook is being tested yet again with more Dem own goals. The latest relates to a promising rent stabilization bill that's almost to the finish line. But just as they're about to get a bold victory, senate Dems, of their own initiative, amended this bill to increase the caps from 7% to 10% + inflation and also exempted single family housing rentals. This is mocking the idea rent stabilization
With the upcoming week of glorious #Seattle weather, don't sleep on the Japanese Gardens in the arboretum. Even on a sunny Sunday parking was possible (if a pain in the ass), and it's a lovely walk.

Haven't seen one in person yet but the folks who posted the blog posted also posted a picture of these new signs around the CID.

So naturally Bob Kettle, city council's most excited ex-cop who wants a spy network, refused to turn over video footage of my assault directly infront of his home surveillance camera 
I guess Bob Kettle likes his privacy more than solving crimes.
Yet here we are, spying on a few thousand old asian grannies in the CID and probably helping get them in trouble with ICE.

The constitution, 4th amendment, sound crime research and public comment didn't work, concerned Seattle citizens held a noise demo at Bob Kettle's house. City council's loudest supporter of this crap, ex-SPD cop and current neighborhood watch captain of Queen Anne.
And you know what? Bob's band of sundown town vigilantes violently attacked the protesters and I was smashed in the head for holding a fucking sign.

A lot of people don't realize Seattle contains a few sundown towns. Well tonight Queen Anne proved sundown towns are alive and well in Seattle.
After about 15min of starting the noise demo, an enraged mob of karens and kens angrily engaged protesters. A shithead ken pushed a transwoman to get to a speaker (which was not in use) behind her.
He picked up the speaker and hurled it, striking me in the head, nearly in the temple.

This legislation SOAP/SODA zones, put forth by Cathy Moore (an ex-Native reservation Court judge) was strongly opposed.
None the less the city council rammed this legislature through.
And Mayor Bruce Harrell, whose up for re-election, happily signed off on this cop city bullshit.
They crushed public comment with massive police presences and violent arrests, with several public commentators still facing charges!

I'm getting word from activists at City Hall this morning reporting an excessive deployment of police by SPD and the city council.
During this morning's city safety council meeting council members held public comment about SOAP/SODA legislation which aims to jail and fine sex workers and homeless people $5k for existing in major parts of town.
CM Cathy Moore's loitering laws have caused significant community resistance so council members cut short public comment.

As we said months ago when the city council voted for this dragnet spy network, there are now people whose entire day and life will be on these cameras.
Each of these near neighborhood-wide deployments cover critical services and in some cases enough essential services that a person might be on camera everytime they leave home for years on end.
