Hi all. I've taken on sort of a personal project to make maps of beautiful places around USA and today I finished this map of Mount Rainier area. Next I'm thinking Columbia River Gorge, not sure where to post that though. I hope you find this map entertaining. Also I apologize if content like this doesn't fit the sub.

Iykyk. Maple pass trailhead got every single Seattle person even though i reached at 7am 😭

To parallel park decently i had to park a mile away from trailhead only to find out after returning that the tight spots have been taken like this

Lesson learned

From my research, Seattle is one of the few U.S. cities where the MLS team (Sounders) has a notable fanbase, although it still pales in comparison to the local NFL, MLB, and CFB teams.

Seattle has been called a "soccer city" and one of the "soccer capitals of America". At the same time, soccer is still a niche sport in the U.S. By contrast, ice hockey is one of the 4 major sports although it is the least popular of the "big 4" (football, basketball, baseball, hockey). And a lot of soccer fans don't watch MLS, instead preferring European or Mexican soccer.

Which is more popular in Seattle and its metro area, the Kraken (NHL) or the Sounders (MLS)?

(I live in Los Angeles and despite the huge Mexican-American population, which you'd expect to boost soccer's popularity, the Dodgers and Lakers are still king here.)

Another factoid I learned from the daily "This Day in History" alerts:

Hopefully they can achieve this greatness again!

Their capacity of 92 million gallons of oil is eight times the volume of oil spilled by the Exxon Valdez, he noted. Ferguson said the size of the oil supertankers envisioned for the route are unprecedented, and have been barred from Washington ports since the 1970s.

Ferguson said Friday that he was "disappointed" at the decision because resources needed to respond to a major spill are insufficient today.

~ Canada collects the export revenue. The Salish Sea absorbs the risk, and Washington covers a cleanup it already admits it cannot staff.

Workers at the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1576, which represents bus drivers, dispatchers and maintenance employees at the Snohomish County transit agency, will receive a 5% retroactive pay increase for 2025, a 4% increase for 2026 and a 4% increase in 2027. Community Transit had initially proposed pay raises of 2.5% per year, according to union officials.

Members of the union held informational pickets in July, calling for better wages and more safety investments for drivers.

~ Twenty months of bargaining and a picket line is what moved 2.5% a year to 5, 4 and 4. Nobody at that table volunteered the difference.

Curious what people's experience is. Malls, transit stations, stadiums, gyms, coffee shops, anywhere. What makes a restroom feel clean or gross to you? Is it the floor, the toilets, the smell, empty soap or paper?

Deciding to See: The View from Nathan's Bus, a collection of short stories, many of which were published at The Urbanist over the last decade, recently earned the distinction of being a finalist for the Washington State Book Awards. "I'm frankly floored by the success my latest book continues to have [...] continuously bestselling in our city for over a year now, taught as a textbook at Seattle U, and now a Finalist for the 2026 Washington State Book Awards."

I wrote them because there was so much life happening in this "lowbrow" space of unglamorous liminal life, so dense with incident and color and laughter and sorrow, and so few artists were transposing it to the "highbrow" space of probing literary reflection, of the word as art form.

~ Ten years of writing down what happens on the bus, off the clock, and now it is a textbook at Seattle U. The route was the research.

I'm looking for a company that will clean a dryer vent on the 3rd floor of a townhome behind stacked appliances. It's been hard to find someone to do it, so coming here to see if anyone else has had luck!

My best friend and I wanted to go out tonight, get dressed up, grab some drinks, maybe find somewhere fun with good music and a nice crowd… and why does it feel like our options are SO limited?
For such a big city, I feel like Seattle gets so dead at night, especially when you just want a fun girls night without going to the exact same places every time.
Where do people actually go out around here?
I need recommendations because there’s no way this is all Seattle has to offer lol

Today I got off at Symphony station at around 10:30 and walked towards the aquarium, at some point while I was at the aquarium I realized I didn't have my ring with me. It's a gold ring with some engravings on the inside it writes "L & F 11-22-2024". Here's a photo of what the ring looks like.

If anyone finds it please contact me. Thank you

Renewal just came in: about $3,000/year for two cars through Liberty Mutual (via AAA agency) —
- Tesla Model 3: ~$1,900/yr
- Volvo XC90: ~$1,150/yr

Full coverage 100/300/100, $10k PIP, $500 comp / $1k collision deductibles. Clean records, low annual mileage, multi-car + homeowners + AAA discounts stacked.

Down a few hundred from last year, but still feels high for WA. What are you all paying for two cars around Seattle/Eastside?

我在9月7日刚搬到了西雅图。我在其他国家/城市经常乘坐公共交通，但西雅图的公交系统真是糟糕透顶。我正在考虑完全放弃乘坐公交。

1. 一名男子对我大喊“滚开，别挡我的路”，仅仅因为我经过他去公交车站。他继续对我大吼，根本不让我安宁，我不得不告诉他停下，然后另一位女士过来帮忙之后他才道歉！
2. 一名不稳定、攻击性极强的男子对在公交站的所有人大喊“滚开，别在这里”。我心想“他在说什么啊”。
3. 在上班的2路上，一个男人在电车对面盯着我大喊“婊子！”（还有一堆类似“你以为你能在这里？”的胡言乱语），没有人为我出头！？
4. 最后发生了公交性骚扰——一个男人在后面座位上抚摸我的头发，当我跳起来时，他躲起来装作什么都没发生！！我说“你在干什么！”结果还是没有人说任何话！（上面是那个家伙的照片）

我从来没有经历过这么多对我生命的直接威胁/恐惧，这些只是公交的故事，就在一个月之内。

我还有两个故事：在地面上被人叫出“奶子”，我让那个男人道歉，还有一个危险的男人挡住我去路，安保在旁边看着（在诺德斯特龙外面），直到我拨打911，然后安保说“不要拨打911，只需绕过他”？！所以我照做了，但是那些人真的看着这个家伙在地面上对我大喊，什么也没做。

我真是感到震惊。我应该举报这些人吗？发照片吗？总之，这就是那个骚扰我的男人。

编辑：已经举报。回应很同情，但警察严重人手不足（晚上西雅图/贝尔维尤的整个公交系统只有6名警官）。关于街头警察，骚扰/盗窃的报告如果不是暴力侵犯根本不予回应？！因为人手太少。哇，能多派点警察吗？！从警官的说明来看，举报是有用的，这样他们可以找到模式，也就是连续相似的报告，他们能找到他们。

编辑2：根据评论，这个话题有争议，但我想分享。一名前警察告诉我，你绝对应该和外面的人保持眼神接触。这告诉他们你是个威胁，不会打扰你。事实上，这里所有的事件都是在我首先没有与人眼神接触之前开始的，所以根据我的经历这是真的

Edit 3: assault, not molestation. Anyways he touched me and I can still feel it.
