2025 TRD sport. I pay for the app thing-a-ma-jig.,.15.99 a month. My maps think I live in North Africa. When really I live in eastern United States. Every gps location i type in says my destination exceeded route. If I want to type in a location 20 mins away or anywhere it won't work. I've done the soft restart by holding in the volume /power button. I've disconnected the battery. I've recalibrated the gps. Nothing works ... It's saying I live somewhere near Morocco? I don't understand. Help?

Help me choose my birthday dinner spot! Great cocktails is a plus.

Proof that Ballard is Seattle's newest vintage hub? We think so. ThriftCon, a traveling vintage goods convention coming to Seattle this Saturday, has chosen Ballard as its official pre-party destination.

Hi neighbors! I’m looking for recommendations for a carpenter, handyman, or small contractor who could build a custom wood lattice/privacy screen for our covered front entry in West Seattle. The idea is to add a framed, square-grid lattice between the existing porch column and house to give the entry more privacy while keeping it consistent with the original architecture. We’d eventually plant climbing plants in the ground on the outside of the lattice. I’ve attached a photo of the current porch and a mockup of what we’re envisioning. It seems like a relatively small custom carpentry project, so I’d especially love recommendations for someone who takes on smaller jobs like this. If you’ve had something similar built and loved the person you worked with, please send their info my way. Thank you!

I was walking around Green Lake a couple of days ago and i saw this poor goose standing one-legged with a fishing line wrapped around its leg. This cuts off the blood circulation and the goose could lose its leg. I didn’t have anything on me that could cut the fishing line at the time, otherwise I totally would’ve caught the goose and removed the fishing line. The goose flew away short after. I was only visiting family for a few days and wasn’t able to return to Green Lake. I was wondering if anyone here could help this poor goose?

I’m going to be calling Ziply shortly to ask them about our service. Overall, the last 4 years they have provided for us have been good, but we rely on our connections for work and those connections are not… reliable. Everything is fast and smooth until we get major lag spikes and drop connection for 30 seconds. I run a free connection log and this happens every day. I don’t care most of the time but sometimes it’s an important Zoom meeting, or whatever. So, before I ask them what, if anything, can be done, I wanted to ask you folks for your no-bullshit takes. I don’t think the fiber alternatives in this area are better, but I don’t know. I don’t think these disconnections are normal, but I don’t know. Do you have any perspective that might help my discussion with those folks?

Looking for pro-tips before attending my first concert at Dune Peninsula. Do people bring picnic blankets and low chairs or do most people end up standing? Anywhere that tends to have a better view or better sound?

According to a memo Hurst presented Tuesday, the estimated remaining deficit from 2025 was $2.2 million. In the memo, Hurst said that the city found the deficit through a "rigorous financial review" conducted after former Finance Director ... left her position earlier this year. In the last budget, the city significantly overestimated red-light camera revenues based on a few-month window in 2024. The city also overestimated revenues from development and sales tax. "I think that would have made a difference for the city, if an estimate wasn't based on an estimate based on an estimate," Harrell said. ~ The gap was announced closed in March. It reopened the moment somebody new actually opened the books.

There's a speed puzzling event at the Redd Dog in Bellevue on Wednesday September 16th at 7pm. I have a ticket for a team of four but unfortunately it's just me that can attend. Anyone interested in giving speed puzzling a go? You don't have to be an excellent puzzler. The event is just for fun. Teams compete to see how quickly they can put together a 500 piece puzzle. Here's a little bit about your potential future teammate. I'm a 47 year old woman who loves puzzles and games. I also like crafting and the outdoors. Asking strangers to be on my team is extremely outside my comfort zone as I'm a total introvert but here we are. I'm trying something new. :) https://puzzlebuzz.checkoutpage.com/the-redd-dog-in-bellevue-september
