Hey, it’s rad that Maria Cantwell is introducing a bill to clean up a bunch of space junk. There is simply too much crap in orbit. I am glad that Washington is the kind of place that can elect nerds who care about space being a big ol’ mess. Get it done.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
It looks like the Seattle teachers strike is over. The strike probably could have been avoided if the district was more reasonable.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible. Remember that there’s a new booster, so it might take a while. But it’s good to get.
Are you passionate about politics? Let’s talk about it. How about tonight? Stop by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally and get your fix of politics 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 out 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 for you.
The Seattle teachers are still on strike. I hope the school board can get their shit together. Jeez.
In the meantime, students can get free meals. Scroll down to “SPS Meals at Seattle Parks and Recreation Sites” for locations and times.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.

So, it looks like the COVID-19 emergency is coming to an official end in Washington next month. This doesn’t mean that the disease is over, of course. But with better treatments and better vaccines it isn’t as deadly.
I don’t know if it’s the right call, but I do know that you should wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
Hey! By the end of the week, most of us will be able to get the updated Omicron vaccine. This is great news. I would encourage all of you who can to get this vaccine as soon as supplies are available. Let’s keep protecting ourselves and others. Vaccines are the greatest method we have to protect ourselves and our communities from COVID-19. The more people who get vaccinated and boosted, the better we’ll all be.

Back from vacation, looking forward to a 3 day weekend.
Anyway, it’s pretty rad that kids under 18 are eligible to take public transportation for free from most agencies now. And Washington State Ferries starting in October. It’s really a great thing. Public transportation is a great thing and I love encouraging people to take it.
