Hello all! my wife and I are looking to sell our home (I know it’s not the best time to sell, but our mortgage on top of our childcare is costing us more than what we can afford). Can anyone recommend a realtor they have worked with in the past that knows the Kent market well?

Tons happening this week in Ballard, from Swoon City's first anniversary party to a dog Halloween costume contest and a pinball tournament. Here's the calendar.

I’m a neurodivergent person currently living in cap hill area. one aspect of my neurodivergence is having to deal with misophonia. I know I choose to live in a noisy city and that’s on me, honestly it might not be forever, but for now the pros outweigh the cons. I really love living here. the specific issue I’m having is the effing planes that fly above me all night long. sometimes my brain is able to tune them out, but sometimes my brain notices them and no amount of ear plugs and white noise can tune them out. I end up with sleepless nights, and I’m tired of it. does anyone else deal with this? and has anyone noticed neighborhoods that are less affected by the SeaTac flight path?

I am out of work due to a severe job injury last year, with several surgeries so far. Luckily my employer when they released me paid for my health insurance through the end of October. I got signed up for medicaid services that will start November 1st. Now seeing that there will be work requirements starting January 1st to keep medicaid. Since I am getting payments from L&I while still getting treatment for my injury, I still cannot work because of it. (Not that I am not trying to find something that does not require me to do anything physically). Contacted Washington Healthplanfinder, and sounds like I will lose coverage, likely at the end of january, if I cannot work a certain amount of hours. They said to reach out again at the start of the new year, to see if there are any alternatives where I will not lose medical coverage. And for those of you saying I am a "moocher", this is the first time in my life needing medicaid. And I am over 50.

So this will be our first Halloween in Seattle! My family is BIG on Halloween. Always costumes, cooking and trick or treating for the kids. I have a 6 yr old grandson and a 4 yr old granddaughter. What do kids do in Seattle to celebrate Halloween! Please send me some info... I appreciate you guys!!! 👻🎃🧛‍♀️🧟‍♂️🧟

I choose to not sit in my hotel room and be bored. Looking for wherever the underground/indie/grunge scenes might be. I have high expectations since i know femtanyl had live shows here for a time. My idea is pop in, meet people, have fun, pop out.

I originally commented a version this on one of them, but noticed a couple others as I scrolled so decided to make a thread to alert people on what to look for and hopefully give the mods an idea as well. This , this , and this are all fully AI generated. While I would like to hope a lot of people can tell, I think this may surprise people who don't have an idea as to the current capabilities of AI text generation. In this case, it was a little easier to notice because these are new accounts using the cheap tier of generators, and it still has a lot of obvious tells like the constant new paragraphs for almost every sentence, the incessantly repeated "setup:lame joke, setup:lame joke, setup:lame joke" in almost every sentence and in the titles, and the strange "example jokes", and the excellent grammar on accounts with many other comments that are, to say the least, not particularly impressive in that regard. You don't have to take my word for it, as I confirmed all of these using the best detector there is (a lot of people have a mistaken impression, largely driven by AI plagiarists, that text detection isn't reliable, but this is not at all the case with Pangram, which is extremely good and has a 0.0041% false positive rate), and you can plug them into your detector of choice. Or just read them, as I think it's pretty obvious. I don't personally have a vendetta against AI stuff in general. Some people might not mind engaging with it, although I'd say maybe you could have as much fun arguing with the Google search bot or something. What I don't like about it is that it's really low effort. I personally think these posts I linked are shit, and really annoying. Sorry if you liked them. But the detectors might not always work that well, and I'd really like to see an obligation to at least tag them as "AI generated post" so people who want to engage with that at least know.

So my mom's cats are picky eaters and she always foists off her extras on me. My cats are also picky and so they don't want it either. I now have.... fifty-ish cans of cat food? Mostly Fancy Feast but there are a few other brands in there (some Purina Pro Plan, some Chewy brand, etc.) Any idea where to take it? Anyone here want it?

Hey everyone! I am starting a BPD peer group in Pierce County. My friend had said she started her knitting group using Reddit so I thought I would give it a try. Feel free to share and the link is just an interest form! Thank you!

Hello I’m currently homeless, i’ve had good rental history all my life but unfortunately i fell into a bad stage where i lost my job and i got evicted. We are currently working again now and can pay for something affordable, we don’t have criminal history or do any drugs. I’m not asking for hand outs just some trust so we can get back on our feet. I’ve been sleeping in the car with my dog for over a month now and would really love sleeping under a roof.
