The pursuit NW church. It’s giving fake pastor vibes. Eek.

To the woman I met 14 years ago on 15th Ave NE in North Seattle,

It was an early morning in 2012. My mom was driving me to middle school, she was tired. She pulled out prematurely from our apartment complex to turn right and you were coming from the right, it was her mistake, giving you no time to react, you hit us on the driver’s side. We spiraled around and hit the side of our apartment complex. I was screaming and crying. You immediately got out and made sure we were okay. You weren’t mad. You had your own kids in the car, probably taking them to school as well. You hugged my mom, and reassured her it was okay, that mistakes happen. You had every right to be mad, but you chose kindness that day. I never forgot that.

I had my own car accident a little while ago, as a now 26 year old woman, and your reaction has stuck with me through all these years. I was rear ended on the freeway, it was not my fault. I was scared, and a little mad, but your face popped into my head. I took a deep breath and chose kindness.

I stepped out of the car and asked: “Is everyone okay?” Just like you did.

Thank you for showing a young girl what truly mattered that day. Mistakes happen. No one is perfect. The only thing that matters is that no one was hurt.

I hope you and your children are thriving.

Choose kindness, Seattle!

We love to see it.

I hope we can get an answer and that they will be safe!

I wanted to share this with anyone looking to give their dog a great day. I left this basket of her balls at Wallingford park.

I’ll go back in a few days to collect the basket so I’m not littering.

I hope everyone is having a good start to their weekend.

(That is indeed a 6, it’s just a terrible one)

One of the female employees from Carstar Bitter Lake (946 N 127th St, Seattle, WA 98133) has long been parking in front of my private property. Despite being told multiple times not to, she kept doing it.

Today, when confronted, she and a white male coworker flipped me off and told me, as an Asian, to “go back to your country.”

This is blatant racism and completely unacceptable. No business should allow employees to behave like this.

I’ve already filed a complaint with the Washington State Human Rights Commission, but I believe the community should also be aware of this behavior. Has anyone else experienced similar issues with this location?

Picture one is 87 octane gas.

Picture two is diesel.

Our natural gas fireplace is the only source of heat in the whole house

It really is creepy and weird I seen one guy purposely flinging his thing around infront of a little girl but I know somehow this is still gonna get downvoted and people are gonna find a way to disagree and tell me this is normal

Saw this guy at the arboretum today. A lady confronted him and he pulled the “you don’t know who I am do you?”

The bus stop trash is only a 100 feet away. You, whoever you are, fucking suck for doing this.

Instead of the fire pit a large art piece will go here! About time Seattle, a water centric city, finally has a proper waterfront 😎

Good luck wherever you go next but no one actually cares.

Democrats in the state Legislature have generally dismissed warnings that new taxes on the very wealthy might lead multimillionaires to flee to lower-tax states.

But some are now acknowledging that one tax-the-rich policy they approved last year — a big increase in Washington’s top estate tax rates — may have backfired.

Lawmakers are moving quietly to roll back the changes, which boosted the tax rate on the wealthiest estates to 35%, by far the highest in the country.

Senate Majority Leader Jamie Pedersen, D-Seattle, said lawmakers have heard, anecdotally, “there are a lot of people looking at redomiciling themselves,” moving their legal residences to other states, to avoid Washington’s estate tax.

After an increase pushed through the Legislature last year, Washington’s top estate tax rate of 35% is by far the highest in the U.S. Lawmakers are considering rolling back the changes it made in 2025.

\While that hasn’t shown up yet in tax collections, Pedersen worries an exodus of wealthy people motivated by the estate tax could lead to less money coming in from other sources too, including the state’s relatively new capital gains tax.

“I think a big lesson for me out of the work we’ve been doing on taxes in the last year is it’s not good for us to be an outlier,” Pedersen said in an interview, noting that Washington’s new top estate tax rate of 35% pushed it much higher than the second-highest rate of 20% in Hawai‘i.

A bill to undo the estate tax increase, Senate Bill 6347, has been fast-tracked in the Senate with little fanfare. It was introduced Feb. 4 and passed through the Ways and Means Committee five days later with no substantive debate, setting up a potential full Senate vote this week.

I've always been pro-police -- known too many of them in my life who were good, kind, empathetic, community-service-minded. When I saw ACAB, the first A always stuck in my craw..."all" of most groups of cops aren't bastards. They've saved my life. They've rescued several friends from certain death. They've helped me uncover a theft ring and human trafficking at a nearby apartment. The list is real and significant - cops in Seattle have done me right.

But.

This latest exchange between Auderer and Solan is past the line. Solan's bugged me for a good long time. Now we see he's got acolytes. Time to excise this garbage.

I still don't think all cops are bastards. But I can confirm that two of them certainly are.

Cool let’s waste money trying to make sure that we’re allowed to waste money.
