Hippos, urban wildlife, unions, hobbies, nice people. Here for funny jokes, and to see that the rest of the world is up to.

Friend, if they're not already throwing in therapy you're at the wrong hair stylist.

If they want me back they have to go fully Woke 2, sorry. Whole hog. I gotta be able to get an abortion there

Every time I think coordinating care with other parents is challenging as a foster parent, I see the nonsense with divorced parents and realize we have it pretty easy.

Can confirm. My home in Seattle has also more than doubled in value in the same time period.

They are for cars too. I never hated bike lanes, but never really understood why they were needed until I got my license and started driving regularly in the city. Cars are set up for cars, not bikes. Bikes need their own infrastructure, just like pedestrians have separate infrastructure.

I considered leaving White Center entirely when they got a Starbucks. Several years later, it still seems so wrong.

Is there anyone who needs assistance from CARE who's NOT agitated? I can't remember ever being offered assistance from a social worker on the best days of my life. That's kind of a "bad day" thing.

Building can still be used for other events. Not all require the field. Key Arena hosted corporate meetings and a public health clinic, among other things.

When you have a sports team, a big chunk of your calendar has to be reserved for playoff games. But those aren't guaranteed so unless you're having a great season, there's usually just a big dead spot in your calendar where nothing is happening and no one is making money.

When the Sonics left Seattle, then-Key Arena started turning a profit for the first time in decades. Concerts and events can be quite lucrative, and provide a lot more local jobs than sports.

Beyond disappointed that amending the Keeping Families Together Act isn't a higher priority. It's painful to watch kids get neglected by the system that is supposed to help them.

How is it?? Derry Girls is one of my favorite shows ever, dying to check this out, but haven't had time.

There's a building on 5th Avenue that passed design review and it literally causes avalanches so they have to chut down the street when it snows. If design review can't even stop buildings from creating avalanches, it should not exist.

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

I love the idea of a future when Katie gets the Sonics back, hosts the World Cup, and wins the Super Bowl.

Seaside Hotel on PBS. Really anything on PBS, but that one and Miss Scarlet are favorites.

That is SO much more dangerous for pedestrians now. And I feel for the residents nearly. No one ever went on that road but them before. But our idiot councilmember is mad he can't make a left turn wherever he wants.
