"Because the doors are electrically operated, and the manual releases are hard to find in an emergency."

Stay with me here, what if the handles you use to get out of your car when it’s not engulfed in flames are the same ones you use in an emergency? If you need a youtube video to find the “emergency exit” to your highly explosive vehicle it is all but guaranteed to not end well for someone.

@4: It could be vandalism, or it could be the owner's decor. This is Seattle.

@2 Good to know that the design of the inside of those cars is just as ridiculous as the design of the outside.

@7: do not feed.

Oh I love that hot dog tag! It's so cute and it always makes me smile whenever I see it. My favorite is the one-eyed black cat I've seen on the freeway though.

It's nice that nobody seems to take it seriously anymore when Israel accuses NGOs documenting their human rights abuses of being biased toward Hamas.

Also +1 to @10 please everyone let this new weirdo just flame out.

@14 you’re going to be banned just like all your previous accounts so it doesn’t matter anyway but it’s not that people want an echo chamber just that no one likes whiny little bitches

@15, see @10 @13.

barth @15: "it’s not that people want an echo chamber just that no one likes whiny little bitches." Ah, if only our preeminent feeder of MAGA trolls had enough self-awareness to take this advice and reflect on how they themself are perceived. There's fighting fire with fire, and then there's descending to their level.

Anyway, it's great to see Max Solomon commenting ever so briefly here. Same for mike blob. Don't give up, gentlemen.

And to use the language of another commenter here regarding Max's fine advice to DFTT, I would be perfectly fine with these comment sections becoming a MAGA circle-jerk echo chamber. These aspiring fascists would wind up just a collection of madmen and spammers shouting into the void. See what happened to Eric Cartman in episode 1 of the new season of "South Park."

Cressona @ 16...
Sometimes it's fun to fuck with the trolls when you are bored.
Other times... meh, let it slide.

Now, as much as I appreciate Kristo, I still can't understand why he thinks you and Tensor are the same person. You both have very different writing styles and viewpoints (at least from what I have read). If you are the same person for both, then well played, sir or madame. You got me. But I highly doubt that's the situation.

The current troll in this thread, I'm thinking is Valvoline, after getting banned yet again.

drewl2 @18, I can't really comment on Kristo because I generally skip past his comments. To the best of my knowledge, this accusation originated with another commenter, and the simple answer is that they DON'T believe tensor and I are the same person. It's just that accusing me of being tensor was the worst slur they could come up with to try to discredit an anti-MAGA voice who's interested in challenging MAGA's grip on power.

In fact, I'm surprised that the commenter I have in mind hasn't surfaced yet to lash out at my anti-MAGA comment @16.

@21: Liberetto68 seemed to claim he still believed his false accusation about us (https://www.thestranger.com/slog-am/2025/08/28/80215644/slog-am-feds-arrest-firefighters-fighting-bear-gulch-fire-ice-was-using-wa-department-of-licensing-data-trump-ousts-cdc-director/comments/56), but of course he ran away to hide after I asked him for evidence.

IIRC, no accusation of sock-puppetry has ever been made here against a commenter who agreed with the Stranger’s positions; such accusations seem to be ways the Stranger’s supportive commenters convince themselves the Stranger has fewer critics than it in fact has, and those smaller number of critics are fundamentally dishonest. It’s cheap work all around, but easier for them to do than admit the Stranger cannot defend itself against our criticisms.

tensorna @31, if somebody is making paranoid, conspiratorial accusations to try to discredit you, I'm not sure the answer is to make paranoid, conspiratorial accusations of your own--including against The Stranger. But you do you, Sawant-obsessed East Coast guy.

Out of respect for my time and others', I'll have to make this my last comment on this thread. Tensor, I'll let you get the last word. I'm sure you'll put me in my place.

speaking of a
fundamental
dishonesty:

@32: Well, you’re also the target of exactly the same “paranoid” accusations — although I don’t know about “conspiratorial,” given the accusations presume that you don’t even exist; so, if correct, we cannot, by definition, conspire. (In the speculative case where I ever actually care, I’d take the accusation I’m a dishonest sock-puppeteer over the accusation I’m merely someone else’s helpless sock-puppet.)

Also, please note I’m not making an accusation against the Stranger, because to the best of my recollection, no headline poster here has ever made an accusation of sock-puppetry against a commenter.

And, I’m not the only one “obsessed” with Sawant’s lasting negative effects on Seattle — which have proven especially cruel to exactly those persons who’d already endured a harsh struggle:

“Some alarming issues have arisen especially from the combination of Fair Chance Housing, the Roommate Ordinance, and the Winter and School Year Eviction Moratorium.”

[…]

“Sharon Lee, the Executive Director for the Low-Income Housing Institute, recently penned an opinion editorial in the Seattle Times stating the same issues as the private sector. Not for profit groups were recently given $14.2 million by King County to make them solvent once again because they were so far in the red from unpaid rent. If people don’t pay rent, housing groups cannot pay their operating and maintenance costs, and lastly no bank will lend money to build more affordable housing because the costs are not being covered for the buildings already in operation.”

@23: For my laptop, Kristo’s release on bail or whatever had me re-charge my mouse, the one with the smooth and supple scrolling wheel. The browser on my mobile device has a “tap and hold to scroll” feature. Perhaps these might work well for you too? For the tech-savvy discerning reader, improving Slog needn’t be a slog! :-D

@18: “…I still can't understand why he thinks you and Tensor are the same person.”

False accusations of sock-puppetry have a long and ignoble history here, sadly (see @31). This most recent round seems to have started with Libretto68 ‘discovering’ that “cressona” and “tensorna” end in exactly the same two letters (gasp!). So, I then explained how “tensorna” simply means, “tensor’s new account,” (you’ve correctly identified the latter as my original nym) but to no avail; Libretto68 could not possibly let a mere fact— and an unexcitingly pedestrian fact, at that! — simply deny him all glory from his magnificently insightful ‘discovery.’

Once Libretto68 had established as ‘fact’ that cressona was really just my sock puppet, kristo’ could not possibly lag far behind, as something both that obviously unoriginal and tiresomely wrong could not possibly appear as anything other than fresh, new, exciting, and valid to a mind like kristo’s. So here we are, with kristo’ earnestly and smugly vouching for the ‘truth’ of something which is completely false.

@38: In what sense do you believe me to be in a gloves-off conflict with Coolidge Dollar? Do you mean with cressona, who (again) threw unsupported accusations at me @32? I don’t see myself as having any intense conflict with either; we just don’t always see eye-to-eye, which hardly makes for any kind of disaster. (Doesn’t valuing diversity imply expecting a difference of opinions?)

@41 kristofarian: Tensy's speaking in voices now---like Norman Bates?? Yoiks!
Too many MAGAs are ecstatically slurping the hydroxychloroquine these days.
I guess time will tell if Tensy's best friend is Felon Mu$k's Mein Trumpf.

@43: Take off the cheap wig and housedress, and get off the KKKool-Aid before

@44: Um, I was just asking a question about what you wrote; no need to get nasty. I asked because I was, and am, genuinely curious about your statement @38: "I'm surprised ol' tensy and Coolidge dollar haven't already thrown their gloves off and gotten a room yet. They remind me of Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler in Anger Management.
O, the batshit crazy! They're fighting each OTHER now."

Why do you believe any of that is true?
