Because the majority of my hope is rooted in cycling, eating good food, and seeing new places. I wanted an outlet to document those things, in one space. Here's my underwhelming, wildly mediocre blog, which I love.

Billionaires pay the nation's lowest effective tax rate. In Washington state, poor people pay 18% of income on taxes. The rich pay 3%.

A 1% billionaire wealth tax would single-handedly solve WA's $3.3B shortfall & keep taxes flat for 99.999% of residents. https://t.co/vzHbPGo6kH

Sign, chip in $2, start somewhere.

If this thread is upsetting and you want to do something small that can make a difference, sign here to show your support for a billionaire wealth tax in washington state. We have to start somewhere, so why not here: https://t.co/L0zGBzKP01

So to recap we told people to stay home for the last 325 days and gave them $1,800. That's $5.54 a day.

Meanwhile, they pumped about $3 trillion in to the stock market for corporations, which then turned around and did record layoffs anyway.

If your blog is on @LexBlog's modern platform, it got much faster this week. Major SEO benefits as well. Why? Core Web Vitals (CWV). Don't understand what that means? Me either. LexBlog developer @scottfennell123 does though, and he explains it here. 🤩

.@stevenkoprince on writing for a target audience: “We found it’s very difficult for folks who are new to sometimes write about the law without writing like a lawyer. People we are directing it at are not lawyers, they are potential clients.” #TWILB

@LexBlog contributor, @jonhyman, wrote what many of us needed to hear, and what many of us would be fearful to write. Thank you for the transparency, your ability to communicate your response to the events on 1/6, and for taking a stand. We need more Jons.

[Shale Heidinger @HeidingerShale]

Thankful to see the legal community using Twitter as a launchpad to share their take on the events. Thank you @jacq_thomsen for covering the lawyers who are speaking up and using social as a starting point for action.

“Today is a reminder, a painful one, that democracy is fragile. To preserve it requires a people of good will and leaders who are willing to stand up."

Scores of Trump supporters breached the Capitol building and neared the Senate floor on Wednesday afternoon as thousands cheered and clashed with police in front of the building. https://t.co/wH1URGxPnI

This attempted coup is the type of thing we go to war over in other countries.

[Ben Crump @AttorneyCrump]

If this was BLM, they would have already launched a drone strike.

The title kinda says it all.
