– Are you riding naked in the Solstice Parade? Seattle Bike Blog has some tips for you.

– 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.

It is a lovely day in Western Washington. How about joining us for conversations over as drink at the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally. We have much to discuss.

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.

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.

The Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally is a gathering place to unwind and talk politics. So please join us this evening for conversations over a drink.

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.

– If you can make it to the free David Huerta rally at 11:00 on a weekday, there is one in Seattle. Today at 222 Columbia Street.

– Gig Harbor’s waterfront connector is now open.

– Proposal to make graffiti extra illegal.

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.
