<+ UPDATE> Urgent (<24 hrs) Seattle area asylum seeker housing (pls boost) 

Another attourney working on the case may have found a family member in another state.
“We will know in the morning if the client gets bond. If he is released to his family, he will need $ for travel and a place to stay for a night or two while things get figured out. I will update you all tomorrow morning! Thanks for springing into action!”

Urgent (<24 hrs) Seattle area asylum seeker housing (pls boost) 

Are there church groups or others who might be willing and able to sponsor him so we can get him out of custody? He needs housing/basic needs and also someone with legal status who will promise to get him to court as needed. I don’t know that those need to be the same person.

Urgent (<24 hrs) Seattle area asylum seeker housing (pls boost) 

From an email:
I am representing an asylum seeker who is being held at the Federal Detention Center in SeaTac. We have a bond hearing set for Wednesday morning, but the potential sponsor has fallen through at the last minute. Client is male, Latino, no kids, and comes across to me as a sweet Boy Scout. He’s deeply religious.

dental &medical ugh 

@sev ugh of empathy. I need to make an appointment to get a crown replaced, it's literally falling apart, and I've been putting it off for... three weeks now. >___<

@Aradia@mastodon.social @anthracite ... is it? I don't think it is really. o_______o

@Leucrotta "Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast!"
*aviator scarf flaps in sudden inexplicable wind*

@Leucrotta which of course reminds me of the scene from Spaceballs with the guy in the helmet and tux playing the giant drum. ^____^

Kids These Days may be surprised to learn that English is a fifth dimension beyond that which is a deep-sea fish. It lives up to the point to get myself into trouble. #LAMP is fine but other stacks are fine too; I'm a day gdsagfdshdagds

Reblogging also helps, but also not required!)

cw: the judgement of your parents 

@anthracite my mom would just be completely baffled by the whole thing. XD

manafort, uspol, great headlines 

A glorious thread title:

"RICK ROLLED: Gates admits he stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from Manafort"

(The news story, whose editor was not as brave: cnbc.com/2018/08/06/rick-gates)

@anthracite yeah, I looked at my ballot and legit said "what the ACTUAL FUCK." then went and looked up the Stranger's voting guide. I don't always agree with their selections, but they're pretty good about doing the research and sometimes even telling you what that research is. :P

I am finally getting off my butt and voting (deadline's tomorrow, fellow Washington state slackers!).

There are no less than *twenty nine* candidates for the states Senator. THIRTEEN of them are Republicans. THIRTEEN. Damn that is some serious party fragmentation.

(The rest of the slate has five listed as "independent", five Democrats, and six who are each affiliated with a unique party.)
