I’m from Oklahoma and I currently live in WA. I would say don’t go straight for Seattle. But there are jobs that could be of interest to you outside of that. Live on site farm jobs that have housing, usually cheap or can be combined with work?

> Either that or the authorities are the ones who are lying so they don't alarm the public and so they can cover up the fact that they're going to make these guys informants to try and find out more about the group they're connected to.

Why would that be a better plan than just not saying anything? You seem to be giving some meth heads more credit than federal law enforcement...

I think one of the best bets would be either in the tech industry or auto industry, both can be lucrative opportunities, the companies that would offer relocation help, I have no idea, but those industries can be very profitable and are generally in high demand, especially for some body shops in my area

Fair enough. I do think you're probably right about the fact that they don't do anything without the "OK" from up top, and I'm really baffled the only guns they found were those sorry excuses. That's part of why I find it bizarre though. I just really don't see how doing this attack would serve any kind of left wing goals at all though.

Yeah. I'm hoping to do something over the summer on the east side, but the days are so long that it's hard to keep my kids up long enough to see stars then. Maybe if we waited until March or April there'd be less of a chance of snow in the passes, and the sun would still set soon enough. It's just hard to plan with weather, so I'm trying to find a few places close by. That way when we have a weekend with a clear sky, we can just go.

There's honestly so many places in Eastern Washington that I want to go to for hiking, etc but there's never enough time for all of them.

No offense but people in WA are so liberal and left leaning that they get tunnel vision "it couldn't possibly be left leaning eco terrorists" "it's the white supremacists!" look up the careaga murders. These guys in WA state are extremely political in the sense that they don't do anything without orders from the top of chain, an attack like this screams disorganized and stupid which isn't something they would do...not only that they have real guns...not whatever 3rd world shit it was these guys had.

Don't be disingenuous. Do you know anything about white supremacists? Well I do, and this type of thing is right out of their playbook. There's a famous fiction book that's been very popular with white supremacists for decades called The Turner Diaries and power substation attacks and terrorism are a huge part of how the characters in the book bring about a race war. Yes it is fiction, but they treat it like a manual. "Left wing" terrorism is extremely uncommon these days. Anyone who's paying attention can see that at least 90% of the time the far right fascist groups are the ones doing terrorism in this country.

Sure, there are a lot of white supremacists that do run drugs, but a lot of them actually hate that stuff because they think it's "hurting the master race" by getting white people addicted to drugs. Fuck both kinds, they're are equally bad and dangerous but that's just the way some of them think.

Why would Neo-Nazis want to destroy power stations? The real neo Nazis and white supremacists are the ones running fentanyl and heroin/meth. These dudes would most likely be left leaning if they are destroying power stations. Most likely eco terror especially with the growing sentiment on the far left that WA's power structure needs to be changed.

I struggle with this too. I'm old school. I smoke out of a bong. I want fluffy, sticky flower for the bong. Not dry, crumbly stuff. I'm told it has to do with people who grind their weed before they smoke it. Definitely talk to the bud tenders about what you are looking for. They are always willing to help me find a great smoke to enjoy. And if you need to put a little moisture back in your weed, use an orange peel and put it in with your weed.
