Get vaccinated! I am still on a weird work schedule.

Shout out to working early. And get yourself vaccinated.

Tuesday is Drinking Liberally day in Seattle. Stop by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally for political discussion, a drink and good cheer.

The Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally meets every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern (2409 10th Ave E, Seattle) starting at 8pm either in the back room of the pub or on the back patio.

Chapters of Living Liberally are all over the place…if you can’t make it to the Seattle chapter, there is probably another nearby chapter you can hit.

Sorry I flaked out on Friday and today’s post is short. Probably will continue with weird work hours through March. Anyway, woo, one more step toward gun control in the state.

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

– 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.
