– When the Biden Administration gives them money to do good things, Seattle will do those good things. Here’s money for small businesses to upgrade appliances.

– Man does Seattle need to get its shit together on road safety.

– Man, Centralia.

– Listen. I’m glad she was actually punished, but stopping off at Starbucks instead of going to a domestic violence call is both surprising and typical for a department that stopped investing adult rape for a while.

Did you hear about the guy running for Governor? How about the guy running for President? Stop by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally and join our evening of political discourse over drinks.

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.

During the campaign, a lot of City Council candidates ran on cliches about taking a hard look at the budget to see what could be cut. They were pretty light on specifics, except maybe exempting police from cuts. But now that they are in power, and trying to make cuts, they are finding that no matter how hard the look, the only programs they come up with are good.

They don’t have a mandate for the actual, specific cuts; just vague promises to cut the bad bits or the waste. Of course, they wouldn’t have a mandate if they lost either.

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