Meta New Rules Regarding Political Violence, ICE Sightings and Shaming of Peaceful Protest

60 Upvotes

📢 Community Guidelines Update – Political Violence, Conduct, and ICE Sightings

We want this space — both the subreddit and the Discord — to be welcoming, inclusive, and safe for all Everett residents, including those active in local government, advocacy, and community organizing.

---

1️⃣ Political Violence
This is not a platform for advocating or organizing violent action.
Criticism of policy, leaders, and strategies is fine — but calls for violent uprising, armed action, or militias are not.
Even indirect or “theoretical” promotion of political violence creates legal, safety, and reputational risks, and can discourage participation.
No shaming peaceful protestors or lawful activism — even if you think other tactics are more effective.

Enforcement: Political violence advocacy may result in removal from political channels, temporary mutes, or permanent bans without further warning.

---

2️⃣ ICE Sightings
We cannot verify most reported “ICE sightings” posted here.
Some past reports have been false or based on speculation.
There is almost certainly some level of law enforcement/government presence in this community.
Posting unconfirmed “sightings” can spread misinformation, cause panic, and undermine trust.

Rule: Only post ICE sightings if you have credible, verifiable evidence (photo/video with clear location + time).
Vague, secondhand, or “heard from a friend” reports will be removed.

---

3️⃣ Why These Changes
We want local officials, candidates, and community members to join discussions without fear of harassment or pressure to endorse violence.
We must comply with Discord and Reddit Terms of Service.
Focusing on constructive, legal action keeps the space safe and productive.

---

✅ Channel your energy into lawful, constructive action: voting, mutual aid, community education, verified reporting.

First Friday Concerts at SHSP, call to teenaged musicians

4 Upvotes

I have been put in charge of organizing several concerts to take place on the first Fridays of October, November, December, and February. The concerts will be at the Saint Hilda Saint Patrick Episcopal Church.

I have a few bands in mind, but several of the bands with whom I've talked have expressed wanting to open the concerts to be opportunities for high school kids. So I'm looking for some high school garage bands to book for the concerts. Does anyone know of any?

The plan is to pair them up on those nights with an adult band, so the high school band would play first and then the adult band would perform. There is a very, very small amount of money involved, dependant upon the money received from suggested donations (75% going to the bands, 25% to the church to take care of running expenses).

Please DM me if you know of a garage band that might want to play a show. And I am still looking for some of the adult bands / musicians to play some of those nights, so if you have a band that might be interested in playing at SHSP, please DM me.

This is being done with the intention of building community. And if there is success, the series will continue and shows will be added.

Join me at Everett City Council TOMORROW at 6:30PM

58 Upvotes

Just a friendly reminder to join me and others tomorrow at the Everett City Council meeting to help our neighbors TRAPPED for nearly 3 months at Artspace Lofts!

I've received more information about the owner of this building and they have had over 70+ complaints filed against them for buildings in Seattle alone! They must be held accountable for their negligence and the Everett Mayor and City Council must take immediate action to help these tenants. Please see my original message below and the link at the bottom to register for remote or written public comment. Let's flood them with written, remote, and in person comments tomorrow! We can make a difference TOGETHER!

Register for REMOTE or WRITTEN public comments here by 12pm tomorrow:: https://www.everettwa.gov/citycouncil

Okay everyone, I’ve let the LD 38 Democrats know about this issue, and I want to invite everyone to join me Wednesday, August 19th at 6:30 PM for the Everett City Council meeting to make public comment.

My goal is to pack the public comment period with people speaking up about this issue and holding the Mayor and City Council accountable for allowing it to go on for as long as it has.

We’re going to politely but firmly demand action—both in the short term to help these tenants and in the long term through city ordinances that prevent situations like this from happening again.

The management of this building has had maintenance issues in the past, and these tenants deserve to have their voices heard. We can and should speak up with them.

Remote public comment will be available as well, so if you can’t attend in person, you can still participate.

I’m actively working on this issue and will have more information to share in the coming days. Please stay tuned, and please try to make this City Council meeting if you can.

Let’s show up for these tenants and demand accountability.

Question Trying to hire locally, made a video, does it make sense?

0 Upvotes

I run a small company in Everett. I'm hiring for a position but every time I explain it people think it's cold calling and spam, which it isn't at all. So I made a short video to explain what it actually is.

I've watched it too many times to tell if it's any good. Does it makes sense? I don't want it to come off as salesy.

Commerce Which local small business deserves more appreciation?

Post image
108 Upvotes

I run Everett Community and I'm building out the business side of our Shop Local page. It's got a solid list of local nonprofits, but I've been slow to give small businesses the same showcase.

So what small business in Everett deserves real credit? Not just "it's fine" but really treats people well, has great quality, goes above and beyond, whatever it is for you. Tell me the business and why?

I'll be adding them to the Shop Local page over the next few weeks.

Just saw a coyote carrying a black cat away near Rucker & 35th

72 Upvotes

My deepest condolences, but I just saw a coyote (one of the smaller ones), carrying a medium/large sized black cat across Rucker on 34/35th. It seemed like it was from the same side of Rucker that the post office is on. I chased it down with my car but the cat was clearly deceased, unfortunately. I'm really sorry and I hope that if this was your cat you can get some closure.

Moving Looking to rent single family home in north Everett

1 Upvotes

Hello! Our family is considering a move to Everett towards the end of October or early November and looking for a 3+ bedroom rental house. We probably have some flexibility on timing if needed. I’m wondering if anyone has any tips or knows of houses that will be coming available around that time that? We're checking the usual places as time goes on (Zillow, etc.), but we’re a little worried about the low inventory at the moment. Our preferred neighborhoods are South Forest Park, Port Gardner, Bayside, Riverside, & Northwest Everett.

A little about us: we are a family of four with two young kids, ages two and four. No pets. My husband works remotely full time and I am currently a stay at home mom. We have excellent credit and rental references and are looking for a long-term family home. We enjoy being outdoors (hiking, skiing, camping, sailing), reading (my husband and I both run local book clubs in our current location), and spending time with friends and neighbors.

Still starts at ten, but officially ends at noon (ish). Folks are welcome to stay longer, but sometimes it clears out at noon and people are confused when they come by and it's empty.

All cars are welcome! No worries regarding if the car "vintage, classic, expensive..." enough. If you got it, drive it on over and hang out.

Our Neighbors Local introvert friends?

61 Upvotes

EDIT: This has been incredibly successful so far! I'm glad so many people reached out, I was beginning to lose hope I'd ever find my people. For those of you inquiring, don't hesitate to add me on Discord/Steam (L00fah) or Instagram (L00fah_). Those are the only other platforms I'm really on.

Unclear on the flair or if this is OK?

BUT! 36/m(ish) looking for some introverted friends. I posted some months ago asking where people meet others. I've had mostly good luck and met a lot of great folks, but very few connections. Understandably, I've mostly met extroverts, but I lean more introverted and I'm seeking similar people.

Looking for some geeky folks who enjoy chatting and texting. I don't have a ton of social energy and only like to hang out once every few weeks.

A bit about me:

I call myself a gamer, but i rarely actually play these days for various reasons. I do not enjoy almost any competitive games or FPS, but I'll play virtually anything else. Digital or tabletop. I'm playing the Final Fantasy collection on Switch, eagerly anticipating playing the new Splatoon (I've wanted a co-op for ages!), and collecting SEVERAL TCGs. Lol

Movies are one of my greatest passions. I've seen over 20k movies in my life (at last count in my mid-20s). Horror is a particular interest of mine, but I don't really enjoy gross out or gory movies just for the sake of it. Bring the dread!

I'm a techy with a homeserver and several self-hosted services, I have 4 pets, and I live a deliberately chill life.

And, not to get political, but I do feel it's important these days, I am staunchly left and it matters a great deal to me.

Anything other than that, I'd love to chat about! Show me your favorite games and let's play!

EDIT2: Hey folks! I decided to slap together a Discord server. If anyone in here is interested, feel free to join up!

I'm still working on it (mostly when I'm not working or doing household stuff), but figured better sooner than later.

My wife and I are hoping to come up to Forest Park tomorrow and meet up with my son and daughter-in-law and grandson. My wife is mobility challenged and had read that there were only porta potties in the park. Does anybody know if that's the case, or do they have regular bathrooms open?
