• Fuck the people deporting wildland firefighters, still.
• I wouldn’t call it yet, but it’s sure looking likely that Katie Wilson is going to win the mayor’s race. Still, make sure that your vote was counted.
• This administration is absolute garbage. Part a billion, no funds for foreign students at the UW.

Join us Tuesday night for some adventures in post-election politics (over a pint) at the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally.

We meet each and and every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. You’ll find us in the back room. 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.

Well, the shutdown is going to end. Not with subsidies, with nothing more than a promise for a vote. At least Washington’s Senators voted against this abomination. Ugh, man. Indivisible has a script if you want to call Patty Murray or Maria Cantwell and ask to boot Schumer.

Anyway, today is a good day to donate to the Rainier Valley Food Bank.

• We really need to fix the Federal access to police surveillance data.
• And speaking of, Redmond stop contracting with Flock Safety.
• I love the people making whistle kits.
• With the Trump Administration being little shits about SNAP benefits, today is a good day to donate to the Vashon Food Bank.

Hey gang. It’s nice when lefties win. Good results across the country. It’s too early to tell, but I think good results in Seattle. Well, the City Council races and a City Attorney who doesn’t hate Seattle’s poorest people. Across the state, it seems like a lot more W’s than L’s.

Also, I don’t know what’s happening with SNAP benefits, but you can donate to the Pike Market Food Bank.

Today is Election Day in Washington, so get that ballot in! Best to drop it off before 8pm in a drop box near you or swing by a post office and hand it to a clerk.

And then swing by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally for a drink over some lively discussion.

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.

Drop off your ballot by Tuesday the 4th. Tomorrow as this is posted. People on social media are saying that dropboxes are better than the Post Office. These municipal elections determine what happens in cities and counties all over the state. If you’re in Seattle, I hope you vote for the left slate.

Last week’s Friday Night Multimedia Extravaganza can be found here.

It’s the Friday before the election. Get your ballot postmarked, or better yet at this point, dropped off by Tuesday. Good, good.

Anyway, Microsoft Office changed their icons and I do not like it. I first noticed it at work, and thought, maybe it looks better on a phone. No. No it does not. I’m sure a lot of thought went into it and no I couldn’t do it better. I imagine that I will get used to it, eventually.

Anyway, that’s the most important bit of local tech company news.

• SNAP benefits run out at the end of the month if the government remains unfunded. And while Washington State is doing some things to fill the gap, your local food bank could use some cash. If you’re looking for one, you can’t go wrong with the Ballard Food Bank.
• This story about a biodigester is pretty cool.
• Spokane’s solution to homelessness is pretty awful.
• What was the point of running on auditing the budget, if you’re just going to not?

Feeling oppressed by our political system? Feeling helpless to make change? Empower yourself…vote! Find that ballot swimming in the sea of papers on the table, fill it out and drop it off. Then stop by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally to plot the revolution…or maybe to just relax over conversations and a drink.

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

The election season is upon us. You should have received your ballot by now. Get your ballot postmarked or dropped off by November 4. If you’re anything like me, you were able to get most of your ballot done pretty quickly, and then got to School Board, and sort of froze. I still don’t know who I am voting for, but here are some voter guides:

• First off, The Stranger. Especially for Seattle area endorsements, they remain the most important, even if less so than at their height.
• Fuse do a great job statewide.
• The Urbanist!

Who are you voting for? I voted the left slate for Seattle, especially glad to vote for Katie Wilson and Erika Evans. Whoever you vote for for King County Executive is the right choice, but I went with Girmay Zahilay. And I am still trying to figure it out for School Board.

Last week’s Friday Night Multimedia Extravaganza can be found here.

Heeeey, the election is coming up. Get your ballot postmarked or dropped off by November 4. And, hey, you don’t have to just vote. There’s still time to walk a few precincts. Or whatever your favorite candidate wants. Or the coordinated campaign.

Big things like Seattle mayor could use your help. But man oh man, nobody appreciates you like a lower profile campaign.

And if you can’t do that, you can still tell your friends. Or donate, but it’s kind of late for that. Politics is not just a spectator sport.
