Group responds pointing out that their position is supported by a majority of Democrats. So much for the “big tent” party. https://substack.com/@diagwashington/note/p-214343146?r=8gdw2&utm\_medium=ios&utm\_source=notes-share-action

As the weather continues to saunter vaguely downwards, I find myself wanting a calzone. To whom should I entrust my craving? I'm hoping for something that's so cheesy it defies belief and makes one feel a bit embarrassed to be seen with it - think "TARDIS" except made of dough and full of more cheese than physics would ordinarily allow. Do we have anything like that in the area?

Snohomish County is planning to increase its spending commitment for Everett's proposed downtown stadium project to $10 million, according to a letter from county officials. ... The city hopes those outside investors can help close a large gap in funding for the project that emerged after the estimated cost of the stadium rose by about $38 million earlier this year. The city has previously estimated the gap is about $25 million, or around 21% of the project's estimated $120 million price tag. So far, Everett has purchased six plots of land for the stadium, planned to be built between Pacific Avenue and Hewitt Avenue east of Broadway, at the cost of about $18.1 million. It currently has two condemnation lawsuits in progress with the owners of three properties on the stadium site. ~ Ten million in lodging tax, about $16 million borrowed from the general fund, two condemnation suits filed and a third ordinance up tonight. The full financing plan that is supposed to justify all of it has not been finished yet.

My husband just bought me the most amazing poster! Does anybody know anything about it?

Hello Everett and neighbors! We are still in kitten season and the NOAH center in Stanwood has 20 kittens that need to find foster homes. Most of them are in litters of two or three kittens. All of the options seem very easy to care for and there is even moms with babies. When you get those the mom cat does almost all the work! If you don't have cat food for litter and you can't afford to buy it then Noah center can help you out and set you up with supplies to start. You don't need to be rich to be a foster parent. Give it a try for a couple of weeks and see these adorable kittens grow and learn how to jump and pounce and play. This kitten is from their current email but can't confirm it will still be available. Thanks!

I am planning a party that is dumpling themed, but wanted to cater Asian food (can be a mix of dumplings and noodles, etc.) Are there any recs for places that would cater to a party of 20-30 ppl? Many thanks in advance.

Same question above. Seattle journalist here. Has anyone toured an apartment or house recently and realized the listing photos were AI-altered? Fake fireplace, dramatically improved lighting, furniture that wasn't there?

I need some advice. My husband and I both currently live and work in Seattle. We are both managers in the restaurant industry and make good money. However, as we get older, we are realizing that buying a house for us in this area just isn’t possible. For us personally it really is all or nothing with Seattle, we don’t want to commute from an hour away and we don’t want to live in Portland or Bellingham or Spokane or whatever. Also the restaurant industry here is like really bad. It’s hard to keep a restaurant afloat anywhere but here it seems like people really are cost cutting and caring less and less about service and food than anywhere else we have ever seen. We have family in New England, so we’ve been thinking of moving back. We still couldn’t buy a house in Boston or whatever but living a little more remote when we have so much family around seems less isolating. But I’m scared that the move won’t be what we want it to be. Salaries seem on par in restaurants in New England as they are in Seattle and housing availability and pricing seems more manageable. But what if we move there and it’s just not what it seems on paper? We’re thinking of this move so we can build a better life but is Seattle cost of living really that much different?
