I love seeing more density going in, but imagine if instead of just two units + a three car garage, this was a corner store with four units above it, especially in this area which along a greenway, next to a school, and in a food desert.

After today’s deplorable WH meeting I have changed my logo’s colors to show support for the 60,000 Ukrainian Americans and 16,000 Ukrainian refugees living in Washington State, some of whom have become close neighbors and friends. May they get to safely return home one day, should they desire.

Nationalization of the railroads during WWI led to better worker pay, standardization of track size + rolling stock, investments in declining infrastructure, etc. It made all the improvements the rail monopolies had resisted. Maybe we should be discussing nationalization of some industries again.

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities. That means: 🚫 No gas from corporate giants 🚫 No fast food chains 🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

Pretty clear that America's richest people got together in a room some time over the last 5 years & decided that Americans have gotten uppity -- demanding better wages & working conditions, asking for humane corporate policy & an end to racism -- and that they needed to be put in their place.

It’s always been annoying to me that Amtrak doesn’t stop at Mukilteo, one of the larger ferry terminals in the Sound.
