Now we know!

I’ve been wondering why so many of the arsonists appear to be working on a contract. Some are just flatout crazy or trying to gain a better life in prison, but others act like they’re on a mission for an employer who expects results.

Now we see!

Visit Spokane and the City of Spokane are partnering to attract more film, television, commercial production, and other creative-industry opportunities to Spokane. This partnership will strengthen the region’s economy, while showcasing the Lilac City as a destination for production and events. As part of this partnership, Visit Spokane has hired Luis Mota as Director of Film & Event Development, creating a dedicated point of contact for production companies, event organizers, and other industry partners interested in bringing their projects to Spokane.

The arsonists were building a set for a Zombie Apocalypse movie! No need to hire extras, they’re already hired, stealing and shitting and overdosing and dying and coming back from the dead.

I hope I’m joking, but politicians are always infinitely more evil than mere commoners can imagine. After the universal bipartisan orgasm of 2020, no imagined conspiracy is off the table.

Speaking of accidentally literal metaphors, the term ‘meth zombies’ was invented long before Narcan. The phrase came from the frozen or stumbling appearance of addicts. Now most of them are EXACTLY UNDEAD.
