Here in Spokane WA our library has this...yard tools, sewing machine, fishing poles, so much more...they even have a 3d printer you can use! Love libraries!

Your correspondent here in war ravaged Portland, at the moderately busy airport where lackadaisical travellers are headed to Disneyland or Spokane, no doubt fleeing for their lives. Relief supplies down to essentials like cold craft beer and marionberry jam.

Cool thing about Spokane: we banned these in city limits
This story introduced me to a new "innovation": bitcoin ATMs, or BTMs. They convert cash into crypto, which can then be transferred to a digital wallet.
And guess what? They facilitate impersonation fraud, routinely. DC's attorney general just sued one of the big operators. James Baratta reports:

The Washington state legislature authorized this incentive. #Spokane is using it to replace surface parking lots with housing.
The Pavement to People Program encourages the construction of affordable housing on underdeveloped parking lots. The first project utilizing this program is in the pre-development and design stage! This is a step in the right direction, as downtown Spokane needs an additional 3,200 housing units.

Spokane was the first (and I think still only?) city in Washington to authorize the Pavement to People tax incentive, which cuts the sales tax on new construction materials to 0 if developers build homes on a vacant parking lot.
Now it's finally bearing fruit! 🎉🏠
