  1. If you are a voter in Washington State you should be getting your ballot for the August primary in the mail soon (I just got mine). There are four State Supreme Court primaries, and these races are often the hardest to figure out. This tool from the Northwest Progressive Institute has info about all the candidates in each race and a handy view of who is endorsing each.

  5. Coast #Salish Water Warriors: Voices for the Water at the #SalishSea Assembly in #Seattle

    By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews at #Indybay, Nov. 8, 2024

    "The defenders are battling the dirty energy #corporations poisoning the land, water and air in western #Canada and #WashingtonState, and the waters of the Salish Sea. The rivers from British Columbia in Canada and Washington State come together in the Salish Sea on their journey to the #PacificOcean.

    "The dead birds floating in the Alberta tar sands #TailingPonds, the #ManCamps linked to missing and murdered Indigenous girls, and the increased oil tankers in the Salish Sea -- are all parts of the dirty oil business of the Trans Mountain pipeline pouring out of Alberta's dirty tar sands in Canada, bound for #OilTankers in the Salish Sea.

    "The destruction, and theft of land, is a continuation of the #genocidal residential school system. Native children were kidnapped, ripped from their families, and incarcerated in the abusive schools operated by Canada and the churches.

    "'We can't drink water from there any more,' said Jean, who lives close to the Alberta tar sands in her homeland. 'I was born into this destruction.

    "'Thousands of birds are dead in the tailing ponds.'"

  7. First appearance of Mount Rainier in 2023. Luckily a half an hour after sunset the clouds finally parted… and while waiting there, three otters swam by, completely unbeknownst to the paddle-boarder. 😀
    Taken at Lake Washington
