| Jumping into 2022, hoping against hope Posted: 30 Dec 2021 04:05 PM PST  The divisions that have existed in American society from the start of our political experiment in the late decades of the 18th century will continue to reconstitute themselves into yet another year. |
| Headlines readers would like to see in 2022 Posted: 30 Dec 2021 02:14 PM PST  Seattle Times Opinion readers share their best hopes for 2022 in our headline contest. |
| Posted: 30 Dec 2021 02:13 PM PST  My daughter Grace, 11, and I are writing to express our appreciation for the editorial dated "OL Reign have earned step up to Lumen Field" [Dec. 20, Opinion]. For years we have been Seattle Times subscribers. We look to our local paper to report on local news, including our local National Women's Soccer League team, […] |
| Chinatown ID’s struggles: ‘Heartbreaking’ Posted: 30 Dec 2021 02:07 PM PST Re: "They've helped Seattle's Chinatown International District survive. Now they say government must do more" [Dec. 28, Local News]: It is so distressing to read about what these businesses and residents have been enduring. And it is heartbreaking and frustrating to see city leaders just standing by helplessly and impotently while their constituents are plagued […] |
| Homelessness: City ignores SLU neighbors’ efforts Posted: 30 Dec 2021 01:56 PM PST It is disappointing that although state Rep. Frank Chopp worked successfully to get state funding to Seattle to open three tiny house villages in 2021, the Durkan administration did not even get them started in 2021. The city's budget also provided operating funds for village operation through that year. These three villages could have been […] |
| COVID-19: A missed opportunity Posted: 30 Dec 2021 01:54 PM PST COVID-19 kills, its death toll pushing 5 million since January 2020. Yet the public health sector poorly educates the public on lifesaving measures. It is well known that those with heart disease and diabetes are more likely to die of COVID-19. According to the World Health Organization, 18 million die annually from heart disease and […] |
| COVID-19: True patriots get vaccinated Posted: 30 Dec 2021 01:50 PM PST America is under attack from an enemy that has already killed more than 800,000 of our fellow citizens. In World War II, not only did our soldiers sacrifice to protect our country, but the American public did, too. Those at home faced shortages of food and supplies, among other hardships, sacrificing their personal way of […] |
| Navy on Whidbey: ‘Feels entitled to make its own decisions’ Posted: 30 Dec 2021 01:49 PM PST Thank you for the editorial "Navy and Whidbey need compromise on jet noise" [Dec. 28, Opinion] citing the magistrate's acknowledgment of what the Growler critics have been saying for years. The Navy simply feels entitled to make its own decisions, based on its self-serving data and information, with consistent disregard for the health, safety and […] |
| Navy-jet noise: ‘Ongoing abuse’ Posted: 30 Dec 2021 01:43 PM PST Re: "Navy and Whidbey need compromise on jet noise" [Dec. 28, Opinion]: Several years ago our family made the mistake of renting a vacation beach home on Whidbey Island's northwest coast for a week. It was one of the longest, most miserable weeks of our lives. Every day, multiple times a day, the jets would […] |
| Seattle City Council: Misogynistic power play Posted: 30 Dec 2021 01:37 PM PST Re: "Dear Seattle City Council: Here's how government is supposed to work" [Dec. 20, Opinion]: Once again, our Seattle City Council (except for Councilmember Alex Pedersen) has reared its ugly head with a counterproductive power play. Instead of listening to voters who elected Ann Davison as city attorney by a wide margin, the council voted […] |
| Posted: 30 Dec 2021 01:20 PM PST  The Washington State Cougars football team get a fill-in opponent in the bowl silly season. |
| Community solutions can fuel education success Posted: 30 Dec 2021 01:00 PM PST  From learning to read to going into an apprenticeship or college, education matters to the success of an individual and the whole state. |
| Fund local solutions to nurturing a more educated Washington workforce Posted: 30 Dec 2021 12:11 PM PST  Washington is stuck at 60% of students going beyond a high school education. Innovative local programs could point the way to change that. |
| After a dark year, rejoice in a telescope’s journey to seek our primordial light Posted: 30 Dec 2021 11:34 AM PST  Images of light suffuse our culture and religion. On this New Year's Day, the beginning of the James Webb Telescope's immense journey into the depths of space to probe the "original light" of the universe is wonderfully symbolic. |
| I will not get another holiday season with my child — cherish yours Posted: 30 Dec 2021 11:31 AM PST  When your adult children are visiting, ask they how they are really doing. |
