It was more than two days ago that lightning hit the airplane I was on, yet this is the first I’m mentioning it here. After all these years I apparently still don’t know how to behave on social media.

Don't get caught not voting in the Primary. Ballots due August 5. Image is of puppet monkey giving the side eye

Sure, we’re having a little fun here—but now that we’ve got your attention, let’s talk about something serious. Local elections, like the ones in this Primary, have the biggest and fastest impact on your everyday life. Don’t sit this one out. Make your voice heard and vote!

The printed Kitsap Local Voters' Pamphlet for the 2025 Primary is on its way.

“Dog chases down ambulance that owner is being transported in. When EMS realise, they let the dog in.”

Love this 🥰❤️

17-year-olds who will be 18 by the General Election can vote for candidates in the Primary in August. We don't take it personally they don't hang out on our page. You can help, though, by encouraging them to email auditor@kitsap.gov or call (360) 307-VOTE. #primary

This story is 97.2 percent true.

Today we remember those who died in service to us.

Through Friday I am “Florida man.”

Temperatures in Orlando this week. 90+highs all week. I’ll be wearing soup.

Off to Orlando on Sunday. I guess I’ll be wearing soup for a few days.

Congrats!

Coffee from Dutch Bros this morning. Server brings me my order with a straw. “You can keep the straw,” I say. He says, “Thanks, I always wanted one.” I’m going to live off that laugh for at least a couple hours today.

In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect.

This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus.

When I die, I don’t want harp music. I want to hear the Go-Go’s singing “We Got the Beat,” and I’ll flail and bounce around the room with my loved ones without my legs hurting. When the song’s over, then we can hug and cry and stuff.

Justice Amy Coney Barrett Recuses Herself in a Charter School Case The justice will not participate in oral argument, deliberations or vote. She gave no explanation.

She doesn’t say why, but NYT shows the connections. I applaud her decision and hope more judges and politicians will follow her lead.

Who else didn’t realize this guy is Uncle Rico?

I saw a reposted meme recently that ends with “tells me all I need to know.” The info before it was false. There were several sources proving it false. That someone would repost without doing the work of verifying the info, or worse, not caring whether it was true, “tells me all I need to know.”

Knowledge is power…

I'm not hearing enough about how it's Abraham Lincoln's birthday. Let's step it up, everyone.

I appreciate the love, but if only the Starbucks baristas knew how much I hate the sound of slurping.

I’m having the same experience with the show. The more I learn the more I like it.

Lady Gaga sings. Game over. She wins.

Sometimes I feel like losing hope in America. Then I see a commercial from Progressive.
