Romney Offers Barista Half-Consumed Hot Cocoa in Lieu of Tip.
Tipping $1 per drink to bartender or barista is my rule, SO, if i cant afford that , then i stay home and make it myself. I've worked briefly as a barista, (like many Seattle people?) and have since understood that our tips bring the usual minimal wage a bit closer to a living wage.

Another One Bites the Dust.
I agree with the fact that this is too little too late, for the past 25 years, we have seen the interesting areas of first: Belltown, from the 80s-90's and then Capitol Hill from the 90's-10s; go from dilapidated, but full of incredibly unique, independent and interesting cultural spots from bars,shops, and eateries buildings transfer owners and develop into the ultra modern developed mixed use buildings, just right for the incoming homogenized consumer upper middle class. Many of the older creative and interesting folks have long moved on, and all that is left is a Capitol Hillâ„¢ conceptual brand, based on nostalgia and not current facts or cultural relevance. 1989 will.never.happen.again. Deal with it, nearly every city with any sort of 'artistic neighborhood' is having similar 'growth patterns' Freetown Christiania, this is not.

Today in State Surveillance.
Paranoia often happens because actual incidents. The PTB are getting backed into corners, expect more surprising tactics in the future!
