4/1/26: 'HINT,' RECALLED - https://mailchi.mp/75b8d93ed053/4126-hint-recalled Seattle Times vet John Hinterberger RIP; state auditor reports ‘questionable’ child-care payments; county plans to expand shelters, related services; Aurora Ave’s newest hostelry is just for cats.

There’s no need for “April fool editions” of college or alt weekly papers (full of “funny” fake news stories) any more. The real news these days, especially that emanating from DC, is already insanely ridiculous (or ridiculously insane).

1/12/26: TRANS ACTION - https://mailchi.mp/36b88c48c73f/11226-trans-action New musical tracks a gender and family journey; Legislative session starts with threats of big cuts; anti-ICE protests (and proposed actions) continue; 49ers to play Seahawks in playoffs.

Oh frick: It’s the Forty Whiners, again. Facing the Seahawks in the second round of the NFL playoffs, at home this Saturday some time.

1/9/25: EAT TO THE BEAT - https://mailchi.mp/d466f6a129da/1925-eat-to-the-beat Massive Monkees' dance studio adds cafe; more ICE arrests/shootings in Seattle, Portland bring more protests, responses; quarterback Demond Williams Jr. not leaving UW after all; 'Can Katie Wilson build a movement?'

Thursday night, about 500 gathered for a candlelight vigil at the unlighted Pier 58. Speaker Cameron Lavi-Jones said: “Thinking that this issue is only something that our undocumented neighbors have to survive, or that the color of your skin doesn’t make you that much of a target, is no longer a...

1/8/25: ‘GET OUT OF EVERYWHERE’ - https://mailchi.mp/71e6879a7428/1825-get-out-of-everywhere Anti-ICE protests follow Minneapolis shooting death; police trainers accused of harassing female recruits; development plan's breakup might save Wedgwood Broiler; UW star quarterback enters transfer portal.

That means the MAGA regime is out-and-out lying, concocting a false narrative for its media supplicants and its online comment trolls to dutifully repeat without questioning. Because reality is MAGA’s worst enemy.

1/7/25: WHAT IS A LOCAL HERO? - https://mailchi.mp/ed0247b0fe2b/1725-what-is-a-local-hero County Council honors Ken Jennings; state retracts carbon-reduction claims; juvenile detention sex-abuse suits could bankrupt Pierce County; five years since the attempted domestic coup.

Yesterday was five years since the biggest act that should have disqualified the White House occupant from any further political life (or any further public life). (Politico)

01/06/2026

1/6/25: DON’T FREEZE UP - https://mailchi.mp/7750039e1a7a/1625-dont-freeze-up 'What to Do When ICE Shows Up' cartoon; Wilson fights back against false 'soft on crime' claim; Ferguson proposes all cuts-and-bonds state budget, with 'millionaires tax' pushed to '29; UW prof says Maduro capture 'forces global reckoning.'

And the backlash has already begun. SPOG chief Mike Solan sent out a claim that, under new mayor Katie Wilson, “Seattle is ending arrests for public drug use.”

1/5/26: A CITY FOR THE REST OF US - https://mailchi.mp/30327275e16a/1526-a-city-for-the-rest-of-us Katie Wilson's swearing-in speech; local reactions/protests follow Venezuela invasion; critics of Microsoft's AI obsession call it 'Microslop'; Justice Mary Yu retires from state Supreme Court.

Another decade, another US-engineered coup in Latin America, this one without the “cover” of local military bosses doing the dirty work. Way illegal and unconstitutional, of course.

1/2/26: THE 'SOUL' OF SOUTH DELRIDGE - https://mailchi.mp/9232211303f2/1226-the-soul-of-south-delridge Remembering a produce-shop owner; RFK Jr.'s said to be 'targeting' Seattle Children's over trans-youth care; Katie Wilson takes office; Space Needle fireworks obscured by heavy fog.

We know that the last time “New Year’s at the Needle” was shrouded by extreme fog (and, then, wind) was in 2019-2020. The year that followed included a deadly global pandemic (remember that?), and what turned out to be only the temporary ouster of the MAGA goon squad.

1/1/26: IN THE FIX FOR ’26 - https://mailchi.mp/e4992e6b6460/in-the-fix-for-26 The Ins and the Outs for the year when we (somehow) get rid of the goons running and ruining everything in DC.

It’s the 41st annual MISCmedia Mail In/Out List. Yeah, we’ve been doing this, in three different print formats and then online, since the supposedly good old days of 1986. (Ah, the days of locally-owned drugstores, the Mariners struggling in the Kingdome, and the Teen Dance Ordinance.)

12/31/25: WORLD BUILDING, ON AND OFF THE PAGE - https://mailchi.mp/088071c32e14/123125-world-building-on-and-off-the-page New Octavia Butler biography; US 2 eastbound opening again (with limits); four die in alleged Eastside murder/suicide; 'Somali child care providers in WA being harassed.'

When I was searching online yesterday (in vain, it turned out) for a potential punny title for our 2026 In/Out list (see below), I came across the song “26” by Paramore, from their 2017 album “After Laughter.”

12/30/2025

12/30: I (DON’T) HEAR A ‘SYMPHONY’ - https://mailchi.mp/5368f1e328ef/1230-i-dont-hear-a-symphony Ode to a favorite rail station; migrant farmworkers face 'fear and uncertainty;' Ferguson's mostly-cuts budget plan and its discontents; the intersection of politics, religion, and AI.

Item: “A growing wave of AI-powered religious apps now allows users to ‘text with Jesus,’ ‘talk to the Bible,’ and even hold conversations with AI versions of Mary, the apostles, angels—or the devil itself.” (Barbara Reynolds)
