Is that his way of telling his constituents to stop setting the state on fire?

Today was a beautiful blue sky here in Washington State.

He got onto an electronic device hooked up to the internet to communicate with others on electronic devices to say that generating electricity is bad.

Antifa arson is acceptable for humans, plants, and animals.

Side note: I saw an interesting astronomy documentary on light pollution. It showed how for centuries man looked up to the stars but now with a vast number of cities lit up, city people grow up only ever seeing just a handful of known star formations, with some never seeing the Milky Way.

The documentary was primarily focused on how city light pollution is now affecting/disrupting our best mountain-top telescopes in Hawaii. They showed there are only a couple of desolate places left in America where amateur star-gazers can travel to for relatively complete darkness.

There was no talk of light pollution harming anyone or anything, just disrupting star exploration.

Only lights in Portland that need turning out are FAFO candidates

They'll still have plenty of light to see, from all the burning dumpsters, vehicles and businesses. Might even see a human torch or two, like the exemplary "footloose" video we all saw a couple weeks ago.

Without lights, it’s harder to identify criminals burning shite down.

Why post this without a link?

When, where and how did he disseminate this "request"


Will he try to create and pass a new ordinance limiting the times and types of outdoor lighting are allowed? There are all kind an of rules for beach front property on lighting for Sea Turtles and Beach mice. That permitted is pretty ridiculous.
