​ Hey! Looking for some people to hit/play tennis with around Issaquah. I’d say I’m intermediate at best — I played for a few years, took a bit of a break, and recently decided to get back into it. I usually practice solo against the hitting wall at Tibbetts Valley Park, but would love to find some people to rally with and play the occasional casual match. Happy to play at Tibbetts or other courts around Issaquah. Pretty flexible on skill level as long as you’re up for a casual hit! Feel free to comment or DM me if you’re interested 🎾

We delivered at Evergreen in Kirkland and overall it was fine, but their billing department is an absolute nightmare. They made an error on our statement, refused to respond to either us or our insurance company for months, and then sent us to collections. I was talking to a friend the other day and she said they did LITERALLY THE EXACT SAME THING TO HER. So now we have a new baby to take care of while arguing with some shitty collections agency about medical debt we shouldn't even owe. In the end they'll probably sue us in the hopes of getting a default judgement with massive interest attached to it.

We’ve only been in this house for about a year, so we’re still figuring out some of the original setup. We’re hoping to replace our dishwasher, but after one failed attempt, we’d really like to have someone knowledgeable come out first and tell us exactly what will fit and what needs to be changed for installation. A few months ago, we ordered a dishwasher through Costco that was supposed to be one of the smaller standard-size options. When the installer arrived with it, he looked at our setup and told us it wouldn’t fit and that we needed a GFCI outlet under the sink . The dishwasher ended up going right back. Our current dishwasher has apparently been here since the house was built, and rather than plugging into an outlet under the sink, the wiring goes directly into the house . We don’t know much more about how the existing dishwasher was installed. Here’s what we know: - The current dishwasher is hardwired rather than plugged into an outlet under the sink. - We were told we need a GFCI outlet under the sink before a new dishwasher can be installed. - Because of the way the dishwasher sits in the kitchen, we cannot have a handle that sticks out . We need something with a recessed/pocket-style handle or similar. - We’d like someone to measure the opening and look at the plumbing and electrical setup so we know exactly what will fit before ordering another dishwasher. - The one we’re currently interested in is the Maytag MDB4949SKZ from Costco (pictured), but we don’t know if it will work with our space/setup. My parents had a really good Costco installer and mentioned that if we order through Costco again, we may be able to request him. But we don’t want to order another dishwasher only to have it show up and find out it can’t be installed. We’re not quite ready to officially contact or schedule anyone yet — right now we’re mainly looking for suggestions and recommendations so we know who to contact when we are ready. Who would you recommend for something like this? An appliance installer, electrician, plumber, handyman, or someone else? Ideally, we’d eventually like someone who can inspect the current setup, take measurements, and tell us what needs to be changed and what dishwasher dimensions we need to shop for. If anyone in the Puyallup/South Hill area has had a similar situation or has someone they’d recommend, we’d appreciate the suggestions! Pictures are of our current dishwasher and the Maytag we’re considering.

Like the title says. I have an important meeting I need to take uninterrupted on Wednesday morning. I live out-of-state but visiting family for the week and grew up on the Eastside so know it well. I'd normally take this meeting at my family's home but don't want to chance my preschooler busting in during the middle of it (no locks on doors here). I thought it'd be a no brainer to go to a KCLS library but many don't open before noon on Wednesday. Bellevue branch opens at 11AM but I'd want to be settled in for the meeting by 11 vs. just walking in and setting up then. I've worked from private rooms at Capital One cafes before, but their wifi has been consistently laggy for me on video calls so also don't want to risk that. The ask: Where can I reserve a quiet, private meeting room with strong wifi before 11AM on a Wednesday? TIA for any leads!

I made the mistake of answering a spam call this morning, and a vaguely Russian sounding woman launched into her offer on my house in about ten seconds of me answering like she’s my real estate agent helping me decide which offer I’m going to take. Are you ready to discuss our offer?” WTF They are 100% predatory . If they weren’t they wouldn’t be doing the hard sell. I hung up on her, but how many old or marginalized or mentally challenged people do they get who are used to listening and suddenly think that maybe an easy sale would be a great way to make the most money?

saw this out in the wild at the Seattle acid bath show - had to share 💕

Is pioneer square good place to rent? I’m looking at Hana apartments or should I look for apartments on Capitol Hill? Studio preferably.

I know asking to be friends on reddit is usually a small town thing but what the hell. Hiiii I'm 25 and moving to seattle October 30, and need to find my new fishing buddies. I'm kind of a novice, due to weather conditions I don't get out much in my home town for fishing, but with y'all's paradise weather I expect to be out like every weekend. I like to fish lakes and target bluegill with a rod in one hand and a book in the other. If that's your style please DM me ✨✨✨✨✨

This happened around 1pm Saturday near Madison Av , Baxterly and Lincoln av. In Lakewood OH 😔 hoping we can find him soon. We miss him so much 💔
