Fried A Thread
– This story about a cat interrupting a city council meeting in Liberty Lake is delightful.
– The House Our Neighbors campaign did quite well, a W is a W, of course but in this case, a large victory makes it tougher to marginalize.
– The high speed chases law moving forward had me worried that this legislative session would be all backsliding on police reform. So it’s good to see that the qualified immunity bill is moving forward.
– And hey, there’s some ambitious gun control too. Feel free to contact your legislator on these or anything else important to you.
– Wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible. Dooooo it now.

A Friday Open Thread, For You
– Ugh. A state House committee passed a bill to weaken the rules on when police officers can get involved in chases. I would urge you to contact your legislator and let them know that you want fewer high speed chases in Washington neighborhoods.
– Can’t get enough urban forests.
– You, yes you. Wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
Wednesday Open Thread
Barring any weirdness it looks like I-135 has passed. Because of the way initiatives are set up they will have to fight for funding. But I hope that a victory as well as maybe some left candidates will inspire real action. As well as the actual value of the initiative.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. Right now. Right…now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

Monday Open Thread
If you’re in a jurisdiction that’s having a special election, get your ballot postmarked or dropped off by Tuesday. If you’re in Seattle, please vote for the social housing initiative. If you’re in King County, separately, there’s an online ballot for King Conservation District. An important, if kind of silly, election. I voted for Porter, but I don’t really have a strong opinion on the others.
And, hey, it’s Valentine’s tomorrow. So you might as well get voting done today. Save yourself any hassle.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
