So, if you follow me on Bluesky, you may know that someone threw up on me on the 1 Line the other day. Not the most pleasant experience, but I was standing up and the people near me, sitting down got it much worse. Yuck, but!

Also quite a community Light Rail has. Within a second, people were reaching into their bags getting napkins and wipes and hand sanitizer. The guy who threw up ran out at the next stop, but there was real sympathy for him. A bunch of people jamed on the bus during rush hour looked after each other, felt sympathy, and even joked around. Too bad it took that to make it happen.

Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

– Interesting look at the future of bike infrastructure in South Seattle under the Seattle Transportation Plan. Looking forward to the rest of the series

– Feels weird to support the King County Sheriff’s Office in a lawsuit, but yeah. They’re clearly right in their dispute with Burien about the homelessness ordinance.

– I don’t know what’s happening with Kate Middletown. Probably nothing. But yeah, bad PR from the royals.

– The NW Museum of Cartoon Arts is going to Kickstart their first exhibition soon.

– Free COVID-19 and flu tests.

– When during the campaign, city council candidates said that they would take a look at the budget but couldn’t mention the specifics, well I guess it’s because it includes cutting a summer camp for special needs kids. Maybe they should have started looking before they were elected.

– Are we going to see an end to ballot title shopping?

– Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

I don’t think we as a state are prepared for the level of bullshit Brian Heywood’s initiatives are going to bring down on the state. Brian Heywood thinks he can replace the niche Tim Eyman left. I was aware of the economic damage if his tax initiatives pass. But I guess I missed how much Brian Heywood wants the police to hit people during unnecessary high speed chases. Just terrible all around.

Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

How are you planning to staying warm over the weekend? I myself have forgotten to wear a sweater to work and am already too cold on public transportation. I was also fooled by fake Spring into shaving my bushy beard off. I am fooled by fake Spring every year, despite living here for most of my life. In conclusion, my strategy is I hope that it doesn’t snow until I get home.

Anyway, please get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

– Seattle Police Department out here thinking that the best way to deal with gender discrimination claims is to give the claimant worse shifts. Classic terrible organization bullshit.

– Washington’s prison population is up a bit, but the overall trend is still good.

– Tilth Alliance edible plant sale is coming up March 16.

– Wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

Presidential primary ballots have dropped in Washington state. Today is a good day to fill it out, drop it off, and then swing by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally for some post-voting celebrations.

We meet tonight and every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. You’ll find us in the small room at the back of the tavern. We start at 8:00pm.

You should have received your ballot for the Presidential primary. Get it postmarked or dropped off by March 12.

I know, who cares? Barring something strange, Biden and Trump are going to be the nominees. But still, you can register your support, or your opposition. You can write in “Bumface” if you want to register your displeasure with one bored poll worker.

Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
