Worst city ever, i hate living here everyday. The woke leftist and the tech companies completely destroyed this place and the one party authoritarian socialist love destroying more and more everyday. I cant wait to witness the collapse of Seattle Washington!
Yesterday, a friend and I were doing a free cold-weather clothing exchange at Cal Anderson with her kid. We later realized there was also a mutual-aid event happening on the other side of the park, which we hadn’t known about. I took him toward the playground and passed two women arguing. One woman was using a rollator and was saying something about Black women and Jehovah’s Witnesses “letting people die.” I couldn’t hear every word, but it immediately felt strange because I’m Black and was raised Jehovah’s Witness. (I'm not a minister anymore I was forced to, to be able to live with my aunt who also blocked me from getting a job or escaping a long time.) The other woman had colorful hair and hipster-style glasses and was telling her to leave Black people alone. She said the woman with the rollator had already approached multiple Black people around the park. As soon as I realized what was happening, I quietly tried to detour with the kid: But the woman with the rollator started yelling at me, and the other woman began yelling back at her. The woman with the rollator looked like she might follow us, so I hurried up the stairs (as fast as I can with a cane, at least) toward the playground. She stayed behind, continuing to yell. It was incredibly jarring. I’ve never had a stranger suddenly direct that kind of hostility toward me in public before. Later, while I was telling my friend what happened, a woman who had apparently overheard me came over and apologized. She was unhoused and had two kids with her. I told her it was okay and offered her some of the clean, new-with-tags clothing my friend and I were giving away. I’m still trying to process the whole thing. Has anyone else encountered this woman around Cal Anderson recently, or witnessed what happened? I got to see some ducks tho. It made my brain happy and sparkle. The sun was really nice that day. I'm just grateful she wasn't more mobile than my own crippled ass, and that she didn't seem physically violent. Just loud and a little weird.
I want to add bangles, earrings, belts, etc to my collection and I wanna know where you go!! Preferably thrift/vintage but I’m option to other options too
Is Ballard Avenue (where The Tractor, Hattie’s and Farmer’s market is) considered historic , keeping developers from tearing down the old brick buildings to build mixed use condos or large buildings? Or does WA state law apply everywhere and anything old can be torn down and replaced?
In 2011, voters rejected this very same [...] sales tax increase by more than 10 points, a decision that led to a catastrophic 35% service cut. Pierce Transit leaders ultimately decided to advance a significant reduction in Pierce Transit's overall service area, with DuPont, Sumner, and Bonney Lake fully dropped. [...] Voters once again said no – but that time by a painfully close 704 votes out of more than 200,000 ballots cast. With the 0.3% increase to Pierce Transit's sales tax rates that voters will be asked to approve on November 3, in return they'll see a bus system that is able to grow by 49% compared to current service levels. [...] By the time the service adjustments are fully implemented, no Pierce Transit bus routes would operate less frequently than every 30 minutes. ~ The county executive says more than 15,000 people turned in a 2012 ballot and skipped the transit question, in a race decided by 704 votes. That down-ballot line nobody reads is what took 250,000 annual service hours out of Pierce County.
Does anybody here work at/previously work at/know somebody who works at Bazille in Nordstrom? I’m trying to track down the olive aioli recipe… I’ve tried to recreate by taste and tried some recipes online but none come close to nailing it. Any help appreciated 🙏🏼
First we had Dave’s Hot Chicken, which I was fine with. Now we have Houston TX Hot Chicken, then Super Chix, and Starbird opening all within three months of each other. I thought the chicken sandwich craze ended with Popeyes in 2019. Lol. I’ve had Houston and Super Chix, and both were mediocre. I expect the same from Starbird. Can we get a CAVA instead? 🙏🏻
Visiting soon for the first time with kids and grandmother. Any suggestions for a nice mid-priced hotel close to most touristy spots?
Hi! Looking for some apple picking recommendations. I’ve never been and thought it could be a fun family activity. Please let me know if you’ve had any fun experiences at any local-ish orchards. Willing to drive a bit. Thank you!
I’m coming up from Portland to spend the night in Seattle with my girlfriend for our four year anniversary. Looking for some upscale, intentional restaurants to get a really good meal at. As long as it’s under 200 for two people before tip it should work great! Open to any kinds of foods. Thanks !!
