– We just passed the missing middle bill. Very, very exciting.
– Still, I am uncomfortable with property rights arguments from lefties. I like the idea of a strong tree ordinance and it seems like it’s not in conflict with the city planting more trees.
– Gosh, Republican appointed judges doing what they were appointed to do. You would think that they would celebrate it.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
Please join us tonight as the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally gets together for politics, discussion, and good cheer over a drink.
The Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally meets every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern (2409 10th Ave E, Seattle) starting at 8pm. You’ll find us on the patio off the back of the pub.
Chapters of Living Liberally are all over the place…if you can’t make it to the Seattle chapter, there is probably another chapter near you.
If you’re in King County, you should be getting a ballot if you haven’t yet. It’s for the crisis centers. I hope that you will vote yes. The need is there. I would prefer we pay for these things through the normal government process, voting no won’t make the County Council take it up.
And for goodness sake, please wash your hands right now, and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

We’re stocking up on mifepristone in Washington. It’s important to have local leadership who are prepared in case of a bad outcome in the Texas case. Honestly, it’s awful that it might come to this. People who need abortions should be able to get them.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

We’re entering the final weeks of this year’s legislature. I hope the legislature doesn’t weaken the police pursuit law. Let’s avoid car chases in our neighborhoods if possible. I encourage you to see what’s important to you in those stories and write your legislator.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

I’m sure you all have discussed the capital gains tax ruling. But here’s me. It seems that there were a lot of people claiming that this is an income tax. So even though it wasn’t in the ruling, they now should argue that income taxes are legal. Exciting. Of course they won’t. The courts are about enacting policy Republicans can’t enact legislatively.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now and get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
