Listen, everything that gets in the way of salmon recovery is a problem. And nobody likes a crash. But for some reason, salmon falling into the wrong river is funny to me. Like, we spend all this time and money and then woopsadoo. Any sorry if you are a fish in the wrong tributary.

– Very interesting article about the closing of Northern State mental hospital in the 70’s and the consequences going forward.
– But crisis care is still a way off in King County.
– SPD officers harassing bus drivers. Man, fuck. All the discipline. Imagine being a commuter and the driver gets pulled over for honking at a bad driver who happens to be a cop. I would be so pissed if it was my commute. Not to mention the bus driver.

– Anyway, what a great time to wash your hands. And to make an appointment to get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

Good morning. I hope that you enjoyed fake Spring part two. Real Spring should be arriving soon, but in the meantime, enjoy more rain. You are in Washington, it can’t be that surprising. Anyway real Spring starts about the same time as regular season baseball, so I look forward to both, eventually.
