And even if you know exactly who broke in, police dont care.

Car Prowling Is Out of Control, with 426 Reported Smash-and-Grabs in Seattle in the Last Two Weeks: Not that the police will do anything about your stolen stuff. Even if you track your thieves down using GPS and can point police directly to the thieves' silver minivan in a Fred Meyer parking lot, as Danny Westneat of the Seattle Times just learned, the police officially don't give a shit.

Pickup Truck Plows into Starbucks on Phinney Ridge: It happened at 3 a.m. this morning and KOMO has pictures. The driver fled on foot. That Starbucks is right at a bend in the road. This is "the second time in three months" this has happened.

The Governor Would Like You to Wear Red and White Today: In support of the grieving students at Marysville-Pilchuck High School, who return to class today. Here's his proclamation about it:

From the governors office.
  • From the governor's office.

There Will Be a Candlelight Vigil at the School: Today. And lunch will be held in the gym because the cafeteria is still closed.

Trying to Reach Out to Suicidal Teenagers Using Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr to Prevent More Stories Like What Happened at Marysville: "The surging popularity of social media among teens has not been lost on public-health advocates, who are now working with Facebook to reach students in trouble... Tumblr is more proactive. Search on a word like 'depression' or 'suicide' and a message immediately appears: 'Everything ok?'"

Anyone Else Think That a Tomahawk Is Kind of a Violent and Racist Mascot? Just saying.

ICYMI: Did You Read About Last Week's Breakthrough in the Science of HIV/AIDS? For gay men who are HIV negative but, say, dating with someone who's HIV positive, or sleeping with men whose status is unknown, it has been thought for a while you must stick to a strict daily Truvada regimen to build up enough of the drug in your system to effectively prevent HIV transmission.

So effective that they took all the people on placebos off placebos and put them on the real pills early, because the real pills are clearly so effective.

If You See Nothing Else in Movie Theaters Right Now, Go See Citizenfour: Starring Edward Snowden sitting in his bathrobe in a hotel in Hong Kong, disclosing information that would change the world. The footage is by Laura Poitras, who also directed the movie. Brendan Kiley calls it a "gut-clenching thriller" and he's absolutely right. Even if you know the whole Edward Snowden story, the movie is a must. Here's when and where it's playing.

Fer Fuck's Sake, Prosecution of the Espionage Act Is Out of Control: I probably shouldn't have watched this 60 Minutes story on the guy who wrote about the Osama bin Laden raid right after watching Citizenfour, the documentary about Edward Snowden. But I did. The Espionage Act is a World War I law that doesn't really apply to these kinds of cases; can you please do something about that, Congress?

Speaking of Congress, Have You Voted Yet? You have one day left to do it. Your ballot is in the mail. Here's who The Stranger endorses.
