Wednesday Morning Open Thread

by — ,

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.

Monday Open Thread

by — ,

Over the weekend, I accidentally took the H line. I was trying to get to West Seattle, and the sign must have said Via Westwood Village, instead of the destination. Yikes. Anyway, it took a little longer to get where I need, but it’s fine. Don’t make my mistake. That said, if it’s your actual destination, it looks good.

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