Friday Open Thread

When the marijuana initiative ran, Governor Inslee was opposed to it. But as soon as it passed, he supported implementation. I hope that can be the case on social housing now that the initiative has passed pretty overwhelmingly despite Mayor Harrell and most of the City Council members supporting the other option. It’s a tougher needle to thread when your pictures were on the mailer, but I do hope they try.

If you live in the city and want the Council to actually work to make social housing a reality, well they’re hearing from Amazon, maybe they could hear from you.

– Tonight is the last freezing night for a bit, and it won’t be as cold as the previous few days. If you’re in Western Washington, you survived the worst of this winter. I’m proud of you.

– Also, proud of the social housing initiative. Unless Amazon’s money buys a late swing (I don’t think it will, but it’s a lot of money), it looks like the better one survived. There is a hell of a lot more needed, but this is an important step for more, and more affordable housing.

– If we want to push against a racist future, we should know about our racist past.

– I heard from your member of Congress and legislators. They said you didn’t call, so probably don’t care how they vote. Is that right? It doesn’t seem right.

Monday Open Thread

Maria Cantwell is not meeting the moment when it comes to Trump’s nominees. Not sure if she thinks she will be able to work with them or other nominees would be worse. Or if she thinks they’re greal. But Trump is filling his cabinet and other senior staff with cruel jerks. They deserve to be voted down. If you want to call her, it’s business hours in DC and will be in her local offices soon. You may get an intern or a voicemail. Here’s a quick script.

Hi,

My name is [name] from [city/town in WA]. I am calling because I am disappointed in how many Trump nominees Senator Cantwell has voted for. [I am particularly disappointed with X because of Y, Scott Bessent after handing over the key to Treasury to those weirdos at DOGE, for example.] I hope you will reject more of his terrible nominees going forward.

Thank you for your time,

[Name]

Read it out loud and make it your own before calling, but please do call today.

– I could read every story about where your poops go (second segment). Figuring out how to deal with waste is such a vital function of government.

– I would like no parking requirements, but lower is better.

– Opponents are giving you the runaround, vote yes on 1A. Get your ballot postmarked or dropped off by Tuesday February 11.

– And, hey. Write your legislators and Members of Congress. Do it today.

What has 2 thumbs and was so distracted by the snow this morning it forgot to do an open thread? This guy!

Ooooh, look at Jonny 2 thumbs.

Anyway I have been been encouraging people to contact your legislator or member of Congress. I suspect that you can find something to ask your member of Congress, but I will suggest asking them to stop Elon Musk from bull in a China shopping the whole country. For the legislature, I like HB 1343 to make sure that student aid isn’t in jeopardy if you protest.
