Looking for Chinese language schools for kids. The ones I've found have mostly been around traditional chinese / bopomofo (e.g. https://seattlechineseschool.org/ ), with one mentioning pinyin / simplified chinese ( https://yucaichineseschool.org/ ). But there isn't a ton of reviews about the options in Seattle, so wanted to get thoughts from the hivemind. My preference is towards pinyin-based, for what I learned wrt phonetics. Any advice/help is welcome

As recently announced, the Library is upgrading a major IT system this September. Several of our services will be offline from 6 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 6 until Wednesday, Sept. 16. During this period, you will not be able to access your account or place holds on physical materials. Physical book checkouts will require staff assistance. You will be able to visit our locations; read e-books and e-audiobooks on Libby; attend Library programs; and use computers, printers, Wi-Fi and more. Learn more about more anticipated impacts on our blog . Here are four simple things you can do now to significantly improve your Library experience in September: 1. Bring your library card to borrow physical books from Sept. 8 through Sept. 15 The Library is closed for Labor Day on Monday, Sept. 7, but beginning on Tuesday, Sept. 8, please bring your physical or digital library card, or a screenshot or photo of the card’s barcode and number, to borrow physical items at any of our locations. 2. Hold on to your returns until early October The Library has extended due dates for items that would normally be due during this offline service period. Book returns will be open, but please hold on to your checked out items until early October. Don’t worry about fines! We are a fine-free system thanks to the 2019 Library Levy. 3. Download and log into the SPL mobile app, Libby, and other digital services by Sept. 6 If you haven’t already, we encourage you to download and log into the SPL mobile app , Libby, and other digital services like Kanopy and Hoopla, before Sunday, Sept. 6. This will help you maintain access to those services during our offline service period. You can use our app to add a digital library card to your mobile wallet. It’s a good backup if you don’t have your physical library card with you. And with our app, you will be able to access some Library services earlier in September. For instance, you will be able to place holds on physical materials through our app beginning Thursday, Sept. 17. Without it, you will need to contact Library staff for help placing holds until early October. 4. Bookmark www.spl.org/Update Beginning at 6 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 6, we will provide updates at www.spl.org/Update . Please bookmark that page for reference. We will continue to provide regular updates there until all Library services are back to normal. Thank you for your understanding during this major system upgrade. We look forward to being back to normal operations on Thursday, Oct. 1. We also hope to see you in person at any of our locations across Seattle, where you will find books and programs, computers and Wi-Fi, and knowledgeable staff ready to assist you. The Seattle Public Library
Egyptian street food restaurant Koshari says it has found a potential permanent home just a few blocks from its former Ballard location and is raising money to help secure the space.
Im looking to maybe do a solo trip to the Seattle area because ive never been to the pnw. I dont have a dl so I would need to rely on transit or ubers, just wondering would you recommend Seattle as a cool spot to visit for maybe a week or less? What about during September? Is that ok? For accommodation i would either be couch surfing or hostels, honestly would really be up for meeting people with similar interests Im in to photography, running, hiking, general physical activity/sports/outdoor and city exploring and gaming. Also what budget would you recommend? Please let me know your honest opinions, suggestions or further questions. Im coming from colorado.
Basically the title. It’s been quite a few months since they closed. Is the remodeling done? Hope Andrea and Michael are doing well.

I got into pottery when I was laid off, and I just have so much of it. I have taken a bunch to the little pottery library in Magnolia, but I was wondering about another option. Are there any art fairs or other ways to sell art when you just do this for fun? Example: https://imgur.com/a/7AXnjQ7

I found this wonky article about how WSDOT has been building under- and overpasses for wildlife really interesting and thought others might, too. Careful planning over several years has resulted in significantly expanding habitat for many species. This is the kind of dedicated, unglamorous work state employees do day in and out, year in and out. It makes a real difference. I hope they win a fair contract. As a bonus, it’s really worth clicking through to the author’s story about rescuing a domestic cat he spotted on a wildlife cam living in a wildlife crossing area. Scroll to the bottom for that.
Maybe I’m the only one that feels this way but Lowell is absolutely one of my favorite neighborhoods in Everett. The one thing it’s missing is a coffee shop or cafe. There are multiple parks, the river walk, cute houses, and an adorable candle shop. I see buildings for rent but they’ve been sitting that way for a while. I would love nothing more than to walk my dog along the river with a fresh cup of coffee from a cafe up the street. It feels like enough people live in the area to make a cafe profitable with foot traffic alone, plus additional business from people going to the dog park. This is me putting it out into the universe aka internet and hoping it happens!
