Wealthy cryptocurrency tech bro is spending absurd amounts of money on his own campaign for Woodinville city council and funding other "slow growth" candidates. Seems ethically dubious for a candidate to also have a PAC.

Was fortunate to see #Orcas this week, frolicking in the #pugetsound

So majestic!

Um... OK... I've never seen this before...

"near-critical fire weather conditions"?!

HI #seattle #tacoma #pugetSound ppl! i will be at Seattle Zine Fest this upcoming sunday, Jul 20th!

https://www.instagram.com/seattle.zine.fest

I will have print copies of GENDER AS A PROXY VARIABLE ( https://leecat.art/gender-as-a-proxy-variable ) and KESTREL ( https://leecat.art/kestrel-zine ) and ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS ( https://leecat.art/on-the-shoulders )

I had an urge yesterday evening to see the sunset over the water, so I drove over to Carkeek Park for it.  I was well rewarded, I think.

Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 24-70mm f2.8 S

Under way from up on the command bridge, currently in Saratoga Passage headed toward Deception Pass. Today will be my first time transiting Deception and we'll likely arrive about 15 minutes before slack. Water is glassy smooth here, light wind, no other traffic. Cruising at just 7 knots; timing is everything when going through the pass. #boating #PugetSound #PNW
