Sorry, forgot to do this earlier. It will happen again.

2 of the 9 City Council members will be appointed rather than elected come July when Cathy Moore steps down. I have not been impressed with her, but I do think elections are the way to replace people, not stepping down mid term.

Dow Constantine, too. Although it being later in his term that he already wasn’t running for reelection isn’t quite the same. And Sound Transit wasn’t going to wait for a new CEO. It is an important job and important to fill with the right person, but so is King County Executive.

Hey…it’s TACO Tuesday. And that means the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally will get together to discuss politics and whatnot over a drink.

We meet tonight and every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. You’ll find us in the back room of the pub or, more likely, 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.

– I would like to see less parking at Alki.

– Show the performance, Bainbridge Island Museum of Art.

– The ethics rules, shmethics rules bill has failed.

– Hey, go write your legislators and members of Congress.

– We need more protection for domestic workers.

– Come the new year, insurance will have to cover a year’s supply of hormone replacement therapy.

– Trailhead direct starts this weekend. You guys!

– Those guys don’t look like law enforcement.

– The framing of Marie Gluesenkamp Perez’ victories as a model for rural districts is a bit strange to me. She did better in the Portland suburbs than the rural parts of the district.

– Right to repair is law in Washington.

– More to every type of housing, including flats.

– Call your legislator or member of Congress.

This story on the strippers bill of rights is very interesting. It seems like the legislature may have to revisit some things. The worst excesses of strippers losing money on a shift are over, but strip club owners seem like pieces of shit.

Maybe some sort of collective ownership that cuts them out is a way to go in the future? I don’t know, that’s not helpful in the here and now.
