My parents are nearing retirement and they recently blew up their savings to build a brand new ADA compliant age in place home. They knocked their old home down and built on the land they own. the contractor they selected is one of those “i only build homes for tech executives, but I can squeeze you in.” Well things have been start /stop but they’ve been fairly satisfied with the progress. Now it’s in the final stages, there are kitchen and bathroom problems not being addressed. Along with list of stupid problems. The contractor is now avoiding and dodging my parents calls Need an attorney, experienced with new build construction problems to advocate for my parents who are quickly being overwhelmed with the sudden problems, and an evasive contractor. I’m not a perfect son, but I hate to see my parents struggling with this and I don’t know how to help. So please help me help them My parents aren’t wealthy or privileged. and this new home is literally a 40 year dream that’s going down the toilet.

I’m a fien of pussy, I’m 22 and I want to eat

Where's the best place in, or around, Renton to buy a classic, New York style cheesecake?

There’s police circling the Judkins area with their lights, sirens, and announcing for everyone to stay in their homes due to a K9 deployment. Anyone have the tea on what’s going on?

Hi everyone, I was wanting to do some kayaking on the Cedar River and my first question would be is are there any sections currently unsafe or difficult to navigate because of fallen trees, landslides, etc. And then, if I had up to 5 hours of kayaking what's a good drop off and pickup point? I labeled the alphabet to help but I bet the points have names. And anything really cool to see to keep an eye out for or any Cedar-specific advice? I found some sites about it and a reddit post from 3months ago talking about some changes, thoroughly documented. Thank you for your help!

I was riding a lime bike home when I witnessed a car hit a man riding his bike in the road. I called 911, and the man was just laying there with a stream of blood coming from him. And the car just drove away I gave my statement to two police officers but wtf am I supposed to do with the mental load that comes with that 😞

The outage started at midnight. It's dark in Lake City. The dog does not approve.

Hi everyone, I’m planning a road trip from Seattle to British Columbia in early October and would really appreciate some advice from people who live in BC or have driven this route recently. I’m renting a BMW X5 from National at Seattle-Tacoma Airport (SEA) . The rental is from October 3–17 , and I’ll be driving into Canada, including BC and eventually toward the Canadian Rockies. My main concern is tires . I understand that rental vehicles from Seattle are normally equipped with all-season tires, but I’m not sure exactly what I’ll get. I’m trying to find out what is realistically acceptable for driving in BC in early October, especially if I encounter snow or icy conditions in the mountains. A few questions: What tires do Seattle rental SUVs usually have in early October? Should I expect M+S tires, or is 3PMSF (mountain/snowflake) common? Does anyone have recent experience taking a National/Enterprise rental SUV from Seattle into BC ? When picking up the vehicle, is it reasonable to ask the rental counter to confirm the tire markings and tread depth? If the X5 has regular all-season tires without the 3PMSF symbol, would you personally be comfortable driving the BC mountain highways in early October , assuming the roads are dry? Are there any particular routes or mountain passes where I should be extra cautious at that time of year? I’m not looking for a legal interpretation only — I’d especially like to hear from BC residents or people who regularly drive the Sea-to-Sky / Trans-Canada / BC mountain routes in October . If you’ve rented a vehicle from SEA recently and remember what tires it had, that would also be really helpful. Thanks in advance!

In north Seattle lake City area. Anyone else without power?

Dozens of landlords are telling the same story: They’ve been ghosted and unpaid by West Seattle-based property management company Dwellings Seattle, Inc. in recent months, struggling with the ensuing legal and financial mess, while most live out of state or even out of the country. They have banded together online, filing complaints that are spurring investigations by Seattle Police and other agencies into the principals of the firm that owners say has withheld more than $1 million from them. ....
