Good morning. Let’s start taking steps to get to a place where we can breach the dams on the Snake River. Excellent for salmon. We’ll have to figure out ways to replace the energy the dams produce. But it’s great to push for.

Rep. Dan Newhouse is opposed to any dam removal because he’s fighting a war on fishing. He wants the Snake River as dead as possible. He hates the recreation and transportation that could be achieved.

Forgot I was working early this morning, so short and sweet. Don’t delete your text messages if you’re a government official.

I am still wrapping my head around Mayor Harrell’s budget. It seems certain that the high water mark of the defund movement in Seattle will be in the past as even taking parking enforcement out of the hands of the police is at least proposed to go away.

Good morning. Are you excited about Darryl doing Senate poll watching? I am. But I do want to note that the polls are a snapshot in time in a series of events you can shape. You, yes you, can help influence who is in the Senate next year. You can make calls. You can text bank. You can donate. You can (and hopefully will) vote. You can knock on doors.

And you can get vaccinated for goodness sake. Or get boosted with the bivalent booster if you’re eligible.

The slow decline of Boeing in Western Washington has been gutting. Sometimes it’s surprising that there’s any meat left on the bone. And yet. Boeing is outsourcing corporate finance jobs to India. About 150 starting in October. This is nationwide, but surely it will take jobs from the Seattle area. You feel worse for the people doing factory work than these people. But still, it stinks.

You can drive on the West Seattle Bridge. But also, if the Water Taxi, or working from home, or alternate routes, or whatever worked for you, the first rush hour might not be the best time to take it. Does anyone know if the C line will be faster? It couldn’t be slower, he types nervously.

Hey, it’s rad that Maria Cantwell is introducing a bill to clean up a bunch of space junk. There is simply too much crap in orbit. I am glad that Washington is the kind of place that can elect nerds who care about space being a big ol’ mess. Get it done.

It looks like the Seattle teachers strike is over. The strike probably could have been avoided if the district was more reasonable.

Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible. Remember that there’s a new booster, so it might take a while. But it’s good to get.

The Seattle teachers are still on strike. I hope the school board can get their shit together. Jeez.

In the meantime, students can get free meals. Scroll down to “SPS Meals at Seattle Parks and Recreation Sites” for locations and times.
