I had heard conservative whinging about graffiti in Seattle being legal. And as always it’s fucking garbage. Seattle Police have to be shamed into investigating adult rape, but they have time to make a case against people who wrote “BLM” in chalk? Chalk. Chalk.

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

Chalk!

I don’t understand how you want to be a civic leader and you don’t even remember how you voted in the last Presidential election. It sure looks like it’s Trump. It sure seems like Olga Sagan voted for Trump and then was too chickenshit to just say it.

Jesus, it would have been less damning if she just admitted to voting for Trump. It defies logic. Just say who you voted for, goodness sake.

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

Oh hey. The Seattle bill to prosecute more drug offenders failed, although it sounds like Andrew Lewis, who opposed it in this vote isn’t a guarantee in the future. So if he’s your Council member, you might want to let him (or anyone else) know that you prefer to end the war on drugs, not to extend it.

It’s the last day before a few hot ones. In the past a couple of June days over 80 wouldn’t matter much. But with global warming, and having already had a heat wave it’s just kind of gross. At least the air is not smoke filled yet.
