Friday Open Thread

by Carl Ballard — Friday, 1/9/26, 8:25 am

How are you this lovely morning? I can really tell the sun isn’t coming up at its absolute worst time.

  • Switch your fleet to electric vehicles.
  • SPD trying to bigfoot the mayor.  Come on buddy. The actual changes seem pretty good.
  • Erika Evans is such an improvement at City Attorney.
  • The creeps at ICE should stop looking at Washington State driver’s license data.

Thursday Open Thread

by Carl Ballard — Thursday, 1/8/26, 8:15 am

Sorry I missed it yesterday.

Anyway, the legislature starts next week. A new mayor and City Attorney as well as new City Council members in Seattle. There are great new elected officials in cities and counties all over Washington. And I believe, I know that state and local issues matter so much. Maybe more than National ones.

And yet… ICE agents killed a woman a thousand miles away, and it’s top of mind here. Fuck man. Nobody deserves that. I hope that the agent faces consequences and real justice.

And for the people who obstructed aid, and for the liars trying to cover it up. A plaintive hope for justice isn’t enough.

Drinking Liberally — Seattle

DLBottleHere we are in 2026! Celebrate a new (and better?) year by stopping by the Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally.

We meet tonight and every Tuesday at the Roanoke Park Place Tavern, 2409 10th Ave E, Seattle. You’ll find us in the back room starting about 8:00pm.

Chapters of Living Liberally are all over the place…if you can’t make it to the Seattle chapter, stop by another chapter near you.

Monday Open Thread

by Carl Ballard — Monday, 1/5/26, 8:03 am

Guys. Are we at war? You know, it feels like we’re at war. Are we stealing Venezuelan oil? The President seems to think so, but maybe not. Anyway, Patty Murray seems — correctly in my opinion — outraged. Both by the act itself and by not consulting Congress. Maria Cantwell is issuing wishy washy nothing.
