Happy Halloween, you little ghouls: I have compiled an especially spooky, scary morning news for you. Except, not really. These are just the regular headlines. Because every day is hell.
The Scariest Thing This Halloween: Amazon CEO Andy Jassy explained the recent 14,000-person tech layoffs (2,303 of which hit Seattle Amazonians). He said the reason wasn’t financial nor was it about AI. Instead, it was culture. He said the company grew fast, hired faster, and now had too many “layers.” This is not the way to operate, apparently. With so many people the company can’t “be flat and… move fast.” The culture Jassy speaks of is this: Amazon is not in the business of people, but of course, in the business of profit. Too many people bogs down the profit. This year, Amazon reported $180.2 billion and Amazon Web Services reported $33 billion in sales. It is never enough. After the layoffs, Amazon’s stock ticked up 14%.

Another Halloween Fright: Traffic will be bad for those of you stuck in your little cars. Take a bus or a train to your Halloween party. The I-5 Ship Canal Bridge construction will continue this weekend in the southbound lanes. Rain won’t stop that mess. Rain could stop the planned construction on I-405. If it doesn’t, then prepare for multiple northbound lane closures between Northeast 124th Street and Northeast 160th Street. Annnnnd all westbound lanes on I-90 from Mercer Island to Seattle are closing Friday night through early Saturday morning.
The real horror: Halloween is the day the most child pedestrian deaths happen in the US. Don’t drive your stupid car tonight in the stupid rain and hit any stupid kids. I’m warning you!
Happy Halloween!!!
Reminder that Halloween is the most dangerous day of the year for pedestrians, so:
1. Don’t drive
2. If you must drive, slow down!

Something Wicked This Way Comes: Trick or Treaters beware. An atmospheric river-like weather system will unleash a soggy hell on this evening’s festivities and the weekend that follows. It’ll be gushers only in your candy pail. Cause of the rain.
Darkness Falls: The clocks roll back starting Sunday morning at 2 a.m. Winter is readying its cold, spindly fingers around our necks. After this weekend, sunset will fall at a dastardly 4:49 p.m.
In Skeleton News: Flava Flav has been anointed the official hype man for the US bobsled and skeleton teams in the 2026 Winter Olympics. In case you, like me, forgot there are Olympics next year, there are and they will be held in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy.
Stripping Prince Andrew: No! No! Not like that. Well, a little like that? Britain’s King Charles has started the process of severing his brother‘s ties with the monarchy. The now-almost-ex prince has been mired in controversy over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein. The scandal of being friends with a serial sex pest creep reached new heights recently after Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir alleged Andrew assaulted her when she was a teen. Andrew denied these allegations. Not enough! No princely titles and no more lodging at royal estates for you, buddy.
Trump Calls for the End of the Filibuster: President Donald Trump would like the shutdown to end. Not through compromise, of course. On Truth Social, Trump screamed, “INITIATE THE ‘NUCLEAR OPTION,’ GET RID OF THE FILIBUSTER.” Overcoming a filibuster in the full Senate requires 60 votes. The Republicans hold 53 seats in the Senate. To abolish the filibuster as a whole would change how the Senate does debate. Democrats continue to block the measure that would fund the government because they’re fighting for the reinstatement of healthcare subsidies so Americans don’t suffer even more exorbitant insurance costs. Trump called getting rid of the filibuster the Senate GOP’s “TRUMP CARD.” The GOP fears eliminating the filibuster could hurt them if the Democrats ever regain control of Congress.
Whatever happens, it’ll be too late to save SNAP benefits before they run dry on Nov. 1. The government shutdown has lasted 31 days. It will at least last a few more. Senators left D.C. without making any deals. Millions of people will have to deal with their SNAP benefits lapsing tomorrow. However, there is a shred of hope. A federal judge from Massachusetts will decide Friday whether the Trump administration must continue to fund food stamps during the shutdown.
Justice? Some Senators couldn’t get home last night after their long day of not re-opening the government. Why? Shutdown-induced delays at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
Melissa Kills 49: Hurricane Melissa killed 30 people in Haiti, and 20 people are still missing. In Jamaica, Melissa’s death toll reached 19. The now-Category 2 storm steered mostly clear of Bermuda, which experienced her wrath as a strong tropical storm.
Illinois Advocates Sue Feds: Attorneys with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Illinois and the MacArthur Justice Center have sued Immigrations and Custom Enforcement for its treatment of detainees. According to the suit, ICE officials have blocked detainees from contacting lawyers, deprived them of food and medical treatment, and forced them to sign papers relinquishing their rights.

We Have the Louvre Heist at Home: Thieves nabbed more than 1,000 items from the Oakland Museum of California’s off-site storage facility. They stole metalwork jewelry, Native American baskets, scrimshaw walrus tusks, and 20th century sports memorabilia. We are in a heist heyday!
A Long Read: Rich liberal family hires part-time live-in nanny for their child at their upstate New York home. The nanny gets kind of weird, then refuses to leave.
I hate when this happens! A Kentucky woman opened a package expecting the medicine she had ordered. Instead, she found “arms and fingers.” The county coroner said there had been a mishap with “an airline company, a freight company, and a courier.” The coroner picked up the arms and fingers from the woman and intended to return them to the courier so the arms and fingers can go to their intended recipient. It is unclear who ordered the arms and fingers and for what purpose. Likely, not for medicine.
Viva la France: A 77-year-old French cyclist fell 130 feet into a ravine and survived for three days thanks to the bottles of red wine he was toting in his grocery bags.

Perhaps I missed it, but was there no mention of how business owners in Little Saigon are suing the city for letting Our Unhoused Neighbors occupy their neighborhood?
@48: “Do you yourself believe that this nation would be better off with or without the modern-day 60-vote filibuster? I’m sure you have your own beliefs on this topic and you’re just dying to share them.”
lol, I said my piece with “be careful what you wish for.” 😂 You seem excited about this, so I’ll give you a little chance to rant: Abolishing the filibuster in the case of federal judicial confirmations gave us Justices Barrett, Kavanaugh, and Gorsuch. How have you been enjoying their jurisprudence so far? 😉
@43 “It’s not a teaser, as the question is simply babble.”
Ask a grownup to read it to you. What’s “babble” is your inane DeSantis quote.
@50 yes but renters don’t, strictly speaking, pay property tax (and neither do kids obviously). Anyway I only replied to you to draw out the resident idiots, even if we don’t agree you’re at least entertaining. Happy Halloween!
@53: “Who of the landlord, Unit A renter, Unit B renter, and Unit B renter’s boss gets to use parks as a property tax payer? Ask a grownup to read it to you.”
The question wasn’t babble, it was a riddle. The only one who gets to use the park “as a property tax payer” is the landlord. 😂 It’s like the “railroad crossing” riddle, how do you spell “it” without any Rs? 😜
@52 Republicans, not Democrats, abolished the filibuster for Supreme Court nominations in 2017. They couldn’t get Gorsuch through any other way.
Stranger things have happened but I doubt Republicans will abolish the legislative filibuster anytime soon. For one thing I don’t think they have the votes in their own caucus (just as they likely didn’t back when Trump was haranguing Mitch McConnell over this issue on a daily basis). But more importantly, the smarter ones surely understand that the progressive agenda hinges much more on passing legislation than does the conservative agenda (which hinges more on courts striking down said legislation). A future Democratic president and Congress without a filibuster rule could unleash a flood of progressive lawmaking that Republicans would be unable to stop or reverse, likely including statehood (and new Democratic members of Congress) for D.C. and Puerto Rico. Even if this calculus changes at some point, Republicans aren’t likely to take such a big risk for a minor win of questionable value such as the present shutdown.
thumpus @52: “You seem excited about this, so I’ll give you a little chance to rant: “
I don’t see that my question was so threatening that you had to make personal attacks to try to diminish me. And I don’t see that it was such a difficult question that, instead of answering it, you had to deflect to some water under the bridge concerning a completely different use of the filibuster.
So in the spirit of serious discussion, let me try asking again. Which would be the better option for our nation?
A. Abolish the 60-vote filibuster for regular legislation.
B. Don’t.
Believe me, it’s OK to have your own opinion about this. Maybe you’ll even want to elaborate!
@38,
I’d like to agree that abolishing the Senate’s filibuster would be pro-democratic, though I’m pretty sure it’s actually the opposite. The Senate itself is an inherently undemocratic body, as it significantly over-represents rural (largely white and conservative) constituents legislatively based on arbitrarily drawn state borders. The truly democratic option would be to abolish the Senate outright, though until that happens I think the filibuster is probably and unfortunately a worthy means for limiting it’s influence and impact.
@57: After nearly 250 years, those “arbitrary” state borders formed individual states with of their own cultural significance and contributions to the American fabric. Nobody is “over represented” with two representing their state in the more federalist Senate chamber but many more reps from the carefully drawn district lines in the lower chamber.
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
@56: tbh you still seem a little overexcited 🤣 I hate to see anyone sweat this much, so I throw you a crumb. 😅 There’s a right time and a right way to end the filibuster, but it’s not something you want to do without a plan. An impasse over a spending bill is not when you want to do it. The details I will leave to your imagination but srsly take a seat ha ha ha!
thumpus @59: “@56: tbh you still seem a little overexcited 🤣 I hate to see anyone sweat this much, so I throw you a crumb. 😅 “
Hey, while you’re at it, why not just say I’m being hysterical and getting my panties in a twist? I do find it fascinating that you still refuse to answer my question. CKathes @55 and mike blob @57 seemed to have no problem answering my question without my even asking them. It wasn’t so hard for them perhaps because they are commenters who are here to sincerely express their own views and not troll or manipulate.
Anyway, let me step away from this unproductive digression by making the other point I was wanting to make.
Trump’s call to abolish the filibuster gives the Dems a simple response to the accusation that they are holding the government hostage by refusing to vote in favor of bringing the bill to reopen the government to the floor. They can tell the GOP they have two options to end the shutdown: “You can negotiate and compromise with us to prevent the spike in health insurance premiums. Or all on your own you can take your leader’s advice and abolish the filibuster. No need to involve us. You have all the power in the world. You can end the shutdown tomorrow.”
@60: “why not just say I’m being hysterical and getting my panties in a twist?”
I mean those are your words not mine but I wont argue with you 😂 You already pestered me into answering you about the filibuster @59, if you want a richer answer then ask a more interesting question 😘
@58
Challenge: name anything of cultural significance from say, Indiana.
And gerrymandering allows or now ensures the party in power at the time of redistricting has a clear, but unfair, advantage. All the fairness of a game of musical chairs, where the last winner controls the music.
@58 name anything of cultural significance to come out of Indiana.
And have you heard of gerrymandering? Gerrymandering allows or now assures that the party in power, at the time of redistricting, will draw maps favorable to their party. Like musical chairs, but the last winner controls the music.
@53: Well, the entire point of your attempted distraction was to obscure the dichotomy between persons who build and maintain the city, and persons who take from it and make it worse. The Stranger always champions the latter folks over the former, but admitting that outright would make you look bad, so you throw up all of these nitpicking irrelevancies and stupid word games to avoid stating it plainly. As this thread nicely demonstrates, you never actually fool anyone, but you give yourself points for cleverness and keep on trying anyway.
Given that Mayor Harrell has swept the parks of favelas, and Katie Wilson (while not quite admitting it outright, natch) will allow re-establishment of favelas in parks, we’ll see which Seattle voters choose. If they choose parks for all over a resumption of private appropriations of public spaces, well, at least you can say you tried to fool them.
@68: Terra Haute – Terre Haute, Indiana is known for its “Crossroads of America” location, being the birthplace of the Coca-Cola contour bottle, and being a historic college town with a vibrant arts and culture scene. It is also known as “Cross Country Town USA” for its outdoor recreation and sporting events, as well as its history as a hub for industry and transportation.
Such a bigoted question. Shame on you.

What TS missed last week; Like Greta Thunberg, Bill Gates is pivoting away from climate catastrophism, but unlike Greta, who has contracted a nasty case of Gore Vidal Syndrome, is finding inspiration from Bjorn Lomborg (of Skeptical Environmentalism fame), and will be shifting the Foundation in that spirit. Very big and very welcome news.
What TS will miss next week; Not that Zohran the Magnificent (kid’s party magician that pulls affordable housing out of his turban while leaving his audience members wallets empty) wins NYC’s mayoral race, but that the city could simultaneously produce a hit anti-woke musical (“Slam Frank,” inspired by a 20022 online debate where wokesters were insistent Anne Frank had white priviledge) and a mayor that wouldn’t recognize the performance as satire.
NYC and Minneapolis are about to fall into the abyss of misery of Islamic terror along with London. Its’s really frightening.

@49 DOUG: BINGO!
@75: Yeah, it’s a better answer than @65.
@71: “Bill Gates is pivoting away from climate catastrophism, but unlike Greta, who has contracted a nasty case of Gore Vidal Syndrome, is finding inspiration from Bjorn Lomborg”
I do agree that what’s happened to Thunberg is a tragedy. Last week, for example, she co-signed a letter to the New York Times threatening to withhold submissions to the Op-Ed page until the Times retracts its reporting on rapes committed during the October 7 attack. Thunberg’s personal fall from climate activist to rape denier is a perfect metaphor for the moral decline of the left more broadly. 😆 Is it too much to ask for a leftism that does not excuse the rape of Jews? 😝 An environmental movement that rejects Islamic terrorism rather than celebrates it? 🤣
But as corrupt as the Thunberg left has become, I cannot welcome the rise of the Lomborg right. Lomborg and his fellow climate-deniers managed to delay action on climate change prevention for so long that it is now too late to prevent climate change. Instead, the best we’ll be able to achieve is partial mitigation of its worst effects. The deniers blocked meaningful action to the point where action would no longer be meaningful. Then they declared they’d been right all along! 😆
@77: “Last week, for example, she co-signed a letter to the New York Times threatening to withhold submissions to the Op-Ed page until the Times retracts its reporting on rapes committed during the October 7 attack. Thunberg’s personal fall from climate activist to rape denier is a perfect metaphor for the moral decline of the left more broadly.”
They’re still trying to bully the NYT into retracting that story, two years after 10/7 happened. That’s some dedication to denial. Yeah, it’s entirely plausible Hamas killed everyone in Israel they could get into their sights, murdered children in their beds, abducted hundreds of civilians at gunpoint— and yet didn’t assault any of the women before killing them. Totally real. (For bonus points, Thunberg & Co.’s ‘threat’ consists of actual adults declaring their Take Our Ball And Go Home Rule, in the form of “we’ll shut up and go away if you don’t do what we say.” Potent.)
I looked for their demand for the WSJ to retract their stories on Hamas’ theft of humanitarian aid, and mass public executions, in Gaza, but then I recalled that absolutely every last one of our Genocide Kids never dgaf about civilians in Gaza.
@77: How arrogant to think one has leverage over a newspaper by threatening not to submit any more letters or guest rants to the opinion page.

@79: B-b-but just as everyone simply MUST agree Gaza Is The Most Important Place In The Entire History Of EVAH, everyone in the whole wide world simply MUST agree the silly little New York Times amounts to NOTHING without these writers constantly (ab)using “Genocide!!” as a club to compel everyone’s agreement with the transcendental brilliance of, “From the River to the Sea…”
(I mean, what’s the worst that could result from such wonderfully tolerant, fact-based behavior, another Trump presidency?)
@81: I read it as a misfire of Marxist analysis. They misinterpreted the writing of an op-ed as “labor” from which the New York Times extracts capitalist “value.” From this erroneous premise, they wrongly concluded they are “workers” who can go “on strike” until “management” agrees to their demands. 🤣
“Only by withholding our labor can we mount an effective challenge to the hegemonic authority that the Times has long used to launder the U.S. and Israel’s lies.“

I love it when persons have reached such a zen-like state of total detachment from their own undeserved privilege, they can actually view their threat to throw said privilege away as an act of defiant rebellion against the very providers of that privilege.

@84: ‘WAR CRIMES against a CAPTIVE Population of Palestinians”’
And, I’d wager, kristo’s quoted words most certainly did NOT refer to Hamas literally lining up actual captive Palestinians in public and mowing them down, execution-style, without a hint of trial or other due process.
For two years, the Genocide Kids have imputed to Israel/IDF all of Hamas’ bloodthirstiest traits. Now that Hamas’ own backers have identified Hamas as the problem, our friends just can’t take it. They continue right on repeating the very same propaganda which has already failed them (“Gaza Isn’t Driving Votes”), hoping it’ll work this time, that the peace deal will finally die if they applaud its supposedly imminent death loudly enough. Here’s hoping they continue to disappoint.

Why does this Gaza Hamas Israel incessant arguing go on and on and on kristofarian? The cease fire is holding, Gaza is open, the hostages are released, and even those obnoxious pro-palestinian demonstrators have moved on.
@97: For two years, like the rest of the Pro-Palestinian “From the River to the Sea” crowd, he was promised Israel would suffer serious punishment for the war in Gaza. Now the war ends with no punishment for Israel, but with the whole world demanding Hamas disarm and leave governing Gaza.
As a result, most of the protesters and other “River to the Sea” types have given up and wandered away in dejection, but kristo’ won’t give up hope that repeating the same propaganda will finally make it work this time, he can be rid of this Hamas-punishing peace, and return to blaming Israel full-time for Hamas’ having made Gaza suffer.
