So I have a project where I want to convert an IKEA Klax unit into a workbench (4 storage units across, 2 high). I need to put a wood table top on top that’s just a little larger than the klax itself. Klax is 15.5” deep and I need a tabletop 21-22” deep. My problem is I don‘t have the skills, tools, or workspace to make this myself. So I’m here asking Reddit‘s Seattle folks: where can I go get a custom table top affordably? Thanks in advace!
Hi! I’m an international student planning to study in Seattle, and my family and I are currently trying to decide which high school would be the best fit for me. The public schools we’re most interested in are Roosevelt High School and Ballard High School, but we’re also considering private schools such as The Northwest School, and we’re definitely open to other suggestions as well. We’re also hoping for a school that offers a really good overall American high school experience, not just strong academics. We’d really appreciate any opinions or experiences you’d be willing to share, since we’re hoping to understand what each school is actually like from the perspective of people who know them well before making a final decision. Thank you so much for any help!

Please let me know if there are better ways to do this or any rules that I might be breaking. I am trying to identify planned unit developments as they are very different from condos. I’m trying to get a general idea of what types of units there are – houses or townhouses and how much the dues are and what the dues cover. MLS doesn’t give the homeowners information when you’re looking through real estate listings. I’m trying to determine some of this on my own. If you want to DM me about this that is ok.

Seattle Public Schools’ seventh-grade sexual-health curriculum tells students to “recognize that everyone has a sexual orientation and gender identity.” It defines sexual orientation as “part of a person’s identity that describes the gender(s) a person is emotionally, romantically, or sexually attracted to.” Yet the very same lesson tells students to distinguish biological sex from gender identity. That distinction matters. Homosexuality means same-sex attraction; Merriam-Webster, for example, defines homosexual attraction in terms of people of one’s same sex. A lesbian is a female attracted to females. A gay man is a male attracted to males. If sex and gender identity are different things, then same-sex attraction and same-gender-identity attraction are also different things. A male calling himself a woman does not thereby become part of a lesbian’s sexual orientation. The concept of “gender identity” being used here has its own fundamental coherence problem. SPS defines it as “a person’s sense of self as being male, female, a blend of both, or neither,” while district policy describes it as an “internal and deeply felt sense” of being female, male, both, nonbinary, or something else. But what exactly is being sensed? If male and female mean the biological sexes, an internal feeling cannot determine membership in those categories. If they mean something else, then that alternative meaning needs a non-circular definition that does not reduce to “a woman is someone who feels like a woman” or to stereotypes about the sexes. There is also an obvious falsifiability problem. SPS teaches seventh graders that everyone has a gender identity, while its tenth-grade glossary defines “agender” as someone who “does not identify with any gender.” If reporting a gender identity confirms the framework, while reporting no gender at all simply earns another gender-identity label, what possible observation would establish that somebody simply does not possess this supposed inner property? A proposition that absorbs every possible answer cannot be meaningfully falsified. That is why the comparison with a soul is relevant. A gender identity is not literally a soul; the similarity is epistemological: both can be framed as invisible internal properties known principally through subjective assertion. Someone sincerely reporting an inner experience establishes that the person has that experience or belief. It does not automatically establish the objective existence of the invisible essence proposed to explain it. Calling the concept psychological does not solve that problem. And this collision with homosexuality is not hypothetical. In 2012, Planned Parenthood Toronto hosted a workshop titled “Overcoming the Cotton Ceiling: Breaking Down Sexual Barriers for Queer Trans Women.” The organizers denied advocating overriding any individual woman’s refusal, saying the workshop concerned how alleged transphobia could affect sexual desire. The very premise nevertheless treated lesbians’ sexual exclusion of males who call themselves women as something capable of being analyzed through the lens of prejudice. Stonewall’s former chief executive Nancy Kelley later said nobody should be pressured to date anyone, but also argued that people who rule out whole groups, including people who identify as transgender, should consider whether societal prejudice shaped their attractions. Applied to homosexual people, that logic is grotesquely backwards. A lesbian excluding males from her dating pool is not displaying a prejudice hidden inside her homosexuality. That exclusion is the homosexuality. The same applies to a gay man who is exclusively attracted to males. Gay people spent decades rejecting the idea that their sex-based attraction was defective, prejudiced, or something they should interrogate until it became more inclusive. Seattle Public Schools is not telling students to pressure anyone into sex. The problem is more basic: it teaches the conceptual framework that replaces sex with gender identity when describing sexual orientation, while simultaneously insisting those are different concepts. That framework creates the very opening through which exclusive same-sex attraction can be recast as improper exclusion based on gender identity. Same-sex attraction is not same-gender-identity attraction. A curriculum that blurs that distinction is not protecting homosexuality. It is undermining it.

There is a lost Brown and White Pitbull named Bentley on the loose. Last seen around the Redmond Inn.

Coming up from LA so I can just experience train travel and will most likely have Seattle by my one stop. I loved this city when incane for a wedding 10 years ago, and am excited to see it again. unfortunately, I don’t have as much time as I’d like, so want to make the most of my limited time. since it’s only one night, I’m willing to spend more than usual on my hotel and also on a good meal. I like all food types, but would prioritize something unique to Seattle (and also somewhere good for solo diners or eating at a bar). Thanks for any help. It’ll be in October, as far as weather goes, etc.
