Wanting these does not make you a NIMBY. Wanting these does not make you insensitive. Wanting these does not mean you wish harm on others. Wanting these things does not make you a "dirty right-winger". Wanting these things does not mean you are "punching-down". I'm getting so frustrated we have to pre-emptively type the above before we can express desire for a safe and clean city. Something - or many things - that we are doing is/are not working. We should be able to discuss these issues and solutions without people trying to derail the conversation(s). REPOSTING here because this post was remove by the mods. EDIT: this is partially a response to the "Judkins Park wtf" post from r / seattle

I found this dog wandering near the dog park at Denny and Minor, next to the power substation. She is microchipped but the owner isn’t answering their phone. She seems to live at The Brewster on Pontius.

"Washington law is clear. Slow-moving vehicles on two-lane roads need to move over when safe to do so, when going under the speed limit, and when there are five or more vehicles stuck behind you. I thought this was common knowledge. I assumed any driver would be aware of this law. It applies to any slow-moving vehicle, and I’m not talking about farm equipment. This applies to buses, semis, and people towing things. If you are hauling a trailer or have a fifth wheel attached, this law applies to you. It applies if you’re towing a boat. It even applies if you’re nervous behind the wheel on a windy road, and you’re going under the limit and have a caravan stuck behind you. You are required to pull over and let the other cars pass."

Does anyone know what is going on with this property? It was acquired by the city in 2014 for a new North Precinct Station but leased to First National Auto. now it is being fenced off.

Hi all, sorry to pile on with more bad goose news, but I have spotted an injured Canadian Goose on Lake Washington, just north of Seward Park. It appears to have an injured or broken wing. I think I might be able to catch him (I have access to a big net and have caught injured geese before) but am unable to drive him to PAWS in Snohomish. Is there anyone available right now who could drive him there if I am able to catch him? Not sure if they’ll be able to do much for him, and I don’t want to stress him out and catch him without having a plan in place. Thanks

Hey guys I recently got 3 tickets for avengers doomsday at the regal bella Bottega. I can no longer go to that function. Selling them for $50 all three

Within a week of the earthquakes, the group sent a total of 52 pallets to Miami via truck and later shipped to Venezuela by the nonprofit Global Empowerment Mission, which has the capacity to take more physical aid. Isamary said more than 100 volunteers from different countries quickly organized items before they were boxed into pallets. "We had people from Venezuela, different cities…It didn't matter your immigration status. It didn't matter all that," she said. "It was just one goal, that it was to just get everything together for people that was still in need right now at this moment." ~ No grant, no agency, no press conference. A phone list of restaurant owners from North Seattle to Tacoma moved 52 pallets in a week.

Anybody know what the deal is with this red minivan? We've seen it parked in the same parking spot (across from Hobby Lobby/in front of Subway) on Gilman for years. It doesn't seem to move day or night. Is this rig possibly tied to the post office red Lexus and La-Z-Boy too? 👽

Hello all! I will be giving birth at the Childbirth Center at UW Medical Center Northwest, which has an official "baby-friendly" hospital status/policy. This means they push breastfeeding very deliberately in the post-partum care experience. We have every intention to breastfeed, but I have heard some intense stories from friends who delivered at other hospitals with "baby-friendly" (as opposed to "mother-friendly") designations. Some people choose not to breastfeed, or can't for whatever reason, and have breastfeeding very insistently pushed by their care teams at "baby-friendly" hospitals. These hospitals often won't provide formula unless it is life or death, even when actively requested by the family. I have loved my experience with UW so far, and I do intend to breastfeed. Nevertheless I would be curious to hear from those who gave birth within the UW system about how hard they push breastfeeding if you are struggling with supply for example, or choose to combo-feed. Per UW's own documentation: "You will be encouraged to exclusively breastfeed while you are in the hospital. Exclusive breastfeeding means your baby is receiving your breast milk and nothing else. Your baby will not be given formula or water, or a pacifier, unless it is needed for a medical reason." I would love to hear from any parents with relevant experience in the UW hospital system.

Spread the word if you can. My partner and I watched our neighbor get take today. She was able to record the interaction. The cowards hiked up their gaiters and threw on their sun glasses once they realized she was recording and tried to intimidate her by pretending they were going to reverse their car into her. Sighted in Merrill Creek area. They’re driving dark blue fords with no indication until they get out of the vehicle. Stay safe friends. Please let me know if I need to change the flair or mark NSFW.
