When everyone becomes just a little more trans.01 Nov 2025 02:09 +0000at://did:plc:weqktrchpfxxefa5ffcgebzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4jvw4h6rk2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/ryarmstrong.bsky.social/post/3m25v2idql22hA profound loss today. The work of #JaneGoodall has been a beacon of light in my life. Her example taught me that advocacy rooted in empathy and persistence is not only possible but essential, and that one person’s voice, sustained over time, can shift hearts, communities, and policy.01 Oct 2025 20:31 +0000at://did:plc:weqktrchpfxxefa5ffcgebzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3m25v2idql22hhttps://bsky.app/profile/ryarmstrong.bsky.social/post/3lyjcptir4226This may be the turning point into real action or a scape goat of blame against the Queer and Trans community. While I am deeply disturbed by the murder of Charlie Kirk, I am even more worried about the ripple effects of where we go from here. Action is needed. Gun control now.10 Sep 2025 22:44 +0000at://did:plc:weqktrchpfxxefa5ffcgebzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3lyjcptir4226https://bsky.app/profile/ryarmstrong.bsky.social/post/3lvemtvqwuk2vNo matter what happens on Tuesday I am incredible proud and ferociously hopeful about what the future holds.

In a city with fewer and fewer parking options- this is how can we help our hospitality, night shift workers, and nightlife enjoyers get home safely.

Unfortunately I think this is just the beginning of seeing Trump militarize blue cities and we need leaders standing up for our communities right now. As Mayor of Seattle, I will fight for our right to protest.08 Jun 2025 23:22 +0000at://did:plc:weqktrchpfxxefa5ffcgebzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3lr4yy2vtns27https://bsky.app/profile/ryarmstrong.bsky.social/post/3lqkogikuns2rThe work being done on the frontlines of the crisis we face is essential and addiction has touched almost everyone in their lives.

It’s these things that make life worth living when you can hold chosen family close and just be. #seattle #pride202531 May 2025 03:34 +0000at://did:plc:weqktrchpfxxefa5ffcgebzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3lqgsudsayk2shttps://bsky.app/profile/ryarmstrong.bsky.social/post/3lqbwgfxu522aHarvey showed us that visibility is a political act. Nina taught us that an artist’s duty is to reflect the times. Toni challenged us to tell our own stories. Bernie showed us what consistency looks like. And AOC proved that you can shake up power with authenticity and heart.29 May 2025 04:54 +0000at://did:plc:weqktrchpfxxefa5ffcgebzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3lqbwgfxu522a
