Sorry. Had to work early today and completely forgot about this.

It’s Super-Tuesday! And that means tonight is a super night to stop by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally. There will be plenty of discussions about elections and politics, all over cocktails and beers.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

It doesn’t preclude all punishment, but dang. The cop who killed Jaahnavi Kandula won’t face criminal charges. Just, I don’t know man. This felt like they couldn’t just sweep it under the rug. Maybe he’ll face a civil case or discipline in the department; here’s hoping. But for a person who hit someone and then laughed about how worthless they are, criminal charges seem pretty reasonable.

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