#AndrewBird is doing a tour for #TheMysteriousProductionOfEggs
That's easily one of my favorite albums of his. I don't know if this type of tour will happen again, and he's not stopping in the Midwest for it like he usually does.
There is a realistic chance of this causing me to be in #Seattle or #Denver later this year.
Okay got it figured out. It's a completely different tab I had to go to that didn't require linking. The WA state licensing website is not intuitive.
Max is utterly fascinated with Mt. Rainier #seattle
Upcoming events for Seattle-area cheapskates
Back to the grind of applying for engineering licenses. I'm caught in a catch-22 in the WA state system:
1. I started an application but didn't finish it.
2. To access it I need to link it to my account. That requires the application number, which I don't have.
3. To get the application number I assume I need to access my application. See 2 above.
I can't start a new application because I have one open. It knows I have an application, but won't let me get there unless I link it.
Next month, two new Link Light Rail stations open east of Seattle...Here's the spider map for the Redmond station, showing the bus routes you can catch from there
Finally made it to the local sketch club
Used my two word prompt cards. The ones for tonight were happy fabric, small Dali, and Picasso candy
liked the view
realised the view was actually better slightly further down but didn’t take another photo, maybe next time I need to go to Northgate for some reason
"For Peter Hasegawa, it all started with the heat dome. The labor organizer remembers the 2021 extreme heat event that killed more than 400 people in the state of Washington. That disaster woke up residents and union members to how deadly climate change can be. Although Seattle had passed climate action legislation in 2019, it became clear to Hasegawa and the union members he represented that even though the city was preparing to wean itself off fossil fuels, it was still ill-prepared to deal with the impacts of a warming planet.
This led Hasegawa last fall to South Seattle College, the setting for MLK Labor’s community assembly on extreme weather and worker rights. One October evening, a lecture hall filled with union workers, including teachers, firefighters, home health care workers, postal workers, and more, ready to try out the Community Assembly model. Community Assemblies are participatory spaces where people come together to learn, deliberate, and make collective decisions on programs and policies that influence the actions of government and community action. Hasegawa watched closely as the assembly unfolded."
#seattle crew,
looking for bars / breweries that:
- are dog friendly
- have non alcoholic bevs / mocktails
- would be cool if they had snacks but not required
i know about elysian
Looking to create effective climate change policy? Ask the community
In Seattle, community assemblies are gathering frontline community members to set their own policies around extreme weather
In 2012, Patterson boasted that he hit someone so hard that he broke his nightstick, an apparent reference to a time when SPD violently busted up a backyard party in Columbia City.
You can see that Patterson already has his baton in his hand. He's effectively committed at this point because he can't use both hands to put the man's arm behind his back.
Patterson has been named in lawsuits costing the city over a million.
