– New bike lanes in Belltown.
– Maybe I am just a cynical asshole,* but if the police gave one of my friends a random act of kindness citation, they would never hear the end of it.
– Hearing about Travis Decker is so depressing. Fuck that guy.
– Contact your legislator or member of Congress.
* “just” is the only thing contested here.
It is a beautiful summer day in Seattle…a good time to stop by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally and have an informed discussion, an enlightened dialog, an edifying conversation about the politics of the day. Or you can stop by to rant. Whatever.
We meet tonight and every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. You’ll find us out on the back patio. 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.
Not local, but goddam we should not bomb Iran and we should stop. We should also try to figure out how to stop other countries from bombing Iran. But… We could stop today, so we should.
Anyway contact your Member of Congress today and ask them to do what they can to stop us bombing Iran.

– Really don’t love the possibility that the EMT coming to the homes of sick people were lying about their health. During a pandemic, or ever.
– There isn’t enough information about the fatal high speed chase in Edmonds last night to delve into the specifics. But in general loosening the rules recently leads to more unnecessary fatalities.
– ICE raids are bad enough for the human cost and Constitutional issues, but now they’re fucking with our cherries.
– Your legislator or member of Congress hasn’t heard from you in a minute. Make sure they know you’re still around.

Did you go to the No Kings protest on Saturday? What a delight to be among so many people. To chat and see signs. To hear great speeches and to just show out. Fantastic. Thanks to you for showing up and to the organizers and volunteers.

I spent 20 minutes looking for my keys instead of writing this. But I did want to remind everyone that the No Kings rally and march is tomorrow. Cal Anderson and Red Square. Or tons of other locations.
And while we’re talking about protest, I haven’t had a chance to read Range Media’s recent coverage of the anti-ICE protests in Spokane yet, but it looks compelling.
– You planning on going to the No Kings rally and march? June 14 starting at Cal Anderson Park and marching to Seattle Center. Also a rally at the UW, and many others across the state and county.
– With ICE raids announced, I’m glad the Ferguson administration is preparing for dealing with the Feds.
– King County has no confidence in John Arthur Wilson.
– I don’t trust any police chief, but if Shon Barnes does get arrested to protect my rights, that would be something.
– Good riddance to Larry Haskell. Hopefully Spokane can do better.
