So, wildfire season has started in Washington. I had been enjoying the weather, but of course there’s a downside. Get ready for smokey days.

Happy filing week to all who celebrate. And hey, if your local elected officials aren’t up to snuff, there’s a good chance that they’re up for election now. You might as well run if nobody you like is stepping up.

Anyway:

• The tough on drugs policies had the predictable results in Seattle.
• Do you have World Cup fever?
• Exciting things happening in and around Spokane. Street meat in street racing out.
• That bus lane means you can get out of your car.
• Over the weekend, I was at a fundraiser for the Pierce County YWCA. And, if you have some change, they could sure use a donation.

That’s right. The Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally meets tonight. Swing by and join the conversation and relax 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 starting about 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.

Remember a while ago when like every open thread was Carl has something to say about the library? Anyway here’s another Carl rides his bike post.* It was either that or complain about taking the bus in Tacoma again.**

Anyway, the bike lane is for moving bikes (and scooters, etc.). I understand people crossing the road or going out of their cars are going to be in the bike lane for a second. But!

Stop walking long ways through it. Especially on 2nd where there’s ample sidewalk. And for God’s sake, holding hands? There’s a sidewalk. It’s bad enough being stuck behind slow walkers when I’m walking, but when I’m on a bike?

And are people parking their Lime Bikes in the bike lane or are people putting them there? Either way, please stop.

I love having the bike lanes. It’s so much nicer than when I moved to the urban core, let alone growing up in the area. I think a little consideration would make them even better.

* Carl, you had too many Carl rides his bike pieces from the jump.

** The 3 takes such a weird detour to the Tacoma Mall and then just sits there before doubling back for a bit??? Also, not a complaint or the bus, but T Line got good at some point!

Running a bit slow this morning. Here are some links.

• Be better next time, Bob Ferguson, and maybe you can avoid a fine.
• Don’t those people who crossed the Fremont Bridge over a million times know that Seattle is rainy and has hills?
• We need a bunch of tiny homes, but we also need a buffer zone to stop a bunch of tiny homes.
• Connecting cool bike and pedestrian infrastructure to make it a real network. Go Spokane!

What a time. Glad you’re around.

• It’s good to have an AG’s office that looks out for consumers.
• If you’re going to be a micromanager, you are going to slow things down.
• $10 Million because the city council said it’s bad to hang out with a terrorist?
• Car free Pike Place is great. And also good for business.

The Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally is meeting this evening to chat about politics and relax over a drink. Stop by if you are so inclined.

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 starting about 8:00pm.

Gosh, I really love Seattle in the Spring. Sorry in advance for the non-Seattle people reading this. It’s mostly one bus lane and all one part of the city.

• Denny Way bus lanes mean the end of the L8. They are going to be GR8. The critics are full of H8.
• The free pop-up clinic in Seattle Center is high demand on what’s usually its slowest day.

Good morning to everyone.

• Moar bike trails. Please and thank you.
• Get light rail to Ballard, please.
• Street improvement for Tacoma, sounds good.
• I would like a King County Assessor who is not a creep.
• One moratorium on data centers.

Please join us this evening as the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally gets together over conversation and drinks. Tonight we will raise a glass in honor of former Seattle PI columnist Joel Connelly, who died last week at the age of 78. Joel was a regular at our DL until a few years ago. He was a friendly and calming presence, and was always willing to share with us his wisdom and recollections from a lifetime in politics and media.

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 starting about 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 have been riding my bicycle along the Ship Canal Trail. It’s relatively flat and connects with some other trails. Anyway, on Friday I go for a ride after work. I get to Fisherman’s Terminal and realized, oh shit, my wallet.

At this point, it’s dusk, so I go back to my apartment hoping to see it on the way. No luck, so I canceled my debit card. The next day, I was able to get a replacement at BECU. I also went to Westlake Station and picked up a new ORCA Card.

I get home and I’m trying to figure out how to transfer my account from the old ORCA Card to the new one, when I get a buzz. I answered it, and the people found my wallet and came to the apartment to give it back.

I mean! Come on. Incredibly grateful that they would do that. I was just back from getting a new card, so I was in a nice button down shirt and a tie on a Saturday. Fancy guy to give his wallet back to.
