It’s Tuesday! So please join us this evening for some politics over a pint at the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally.

We meet tonight and every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. You’ll find us in the small room at the back of the tavern. We start at 8:00pm.

Chapters of Living Liberally are all over the place…if you can’t make it to the Seattle chapter, stop by another chapter near you.

Cheers,
Darryl

Good morning everyone.

NowThis: Why this anti-EV argument is ridiculous

Last week’s Friday Night Multimedia Extravaganza can be found here.

– Oregon Republicans knew the rules, knew the consequences, and here we are.

– King Conservation District elections are open until the 13th. If you’re registered to vote in most of King County, you can do it online. I voted for Brittney Bush Bollay, but I also heard good things about Erik Goheen.

– Possible exposure of a male nipple? At a gay bar? Seriously, can the LCB just be better?

– Burien just wasting money on cruelty.

– Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
