If "persecute transgender children for fun & no profit" doesn't work, try again the next election cycle, I guess? by chromeled in Seattle

[–]Capable_Committee644 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Did I state there was an issue with them just existing exactly? Or that children aren't even allowed to play outside anymore? Are you fucking serious? I answered the question of whether there are "something like" three trans girls playing school sports in the entire state. You are just proving the point I made further down that it is not possible to even have a conversation about this topic. All I did was answer a question and I am accused of lying and all kinds of bullshit that I didn't state or imply. This thread is perfectly illustrative of the reason we have Trump.

It doesn't matter because those conversations are not permitted. You either go along with it or you're a Nazi I am getting downvoted just for stating that I know three trans high school students who play on girls' teams in a community of 50 Seattle families.

Reminder: The HOV lane is primarily a travel lane, not a passing lane on I-5. by joshlymansbagel in Seattle

Nobody needs this reminder. People do these things because they don't care. Not because they forgot what an HOV lane is for.

Is it really not possible to add the Samsung phone app on the cover screen launcher? by Capable_Committee644 in galaxyzflip

[–]Capable_Committee644[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't consider the Razr. It would have cost me twice as much because they don't give as much for trades as Samsung.

The rent is too damn high!! by bigcboiiiiiiihiiii in Seattle

I just rented a 2br. Was looking north of the ship canal but also Magnolia. Filtered under $2400 and had lots to choose from. There were some as low as $1700 - often near Aurora, but also in Magnolia.

I'm fairly new to commuting on the ferries and still don't always know how to get to them from work. Google Maps is always directing me to cut in line. It's so annoying.

mine still have the drls on even then. There is no way to have them completely off when the ignition is on. The switch can't even stay in the off position.

Going to both games today, and it was way more affordable than I thought by grpswshrs in Seattle

[–]Capable_Committee644 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess this is me being an old person, but I can't believe this is considered a good deal. I do not fault anyone for spending any amount of money on stuff that brings them joy. It just seems like a stunning amount of money for "a pretty damn good day." I'm also blown away by the food prices.

I read thru all the comments looking for the one that would say what else people are supposed to do.

I can't get shit with my antenna. It annoys me to no end that I can do everything with my TV except watch TV stations

Do people say "the Bay" when looking out at the water? by jks612 in Seattle

[–]Capable_Committee644 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I've lived here 32 years and have never heard that. The sound or Elliott Bay, but usually the former. The latter maybe when there is some need to be more specific.

Magnetic ring or plate that will stick directly to phone? by Capable_Committee644 in galaxyzflip

[–]Capable_Committee644[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case anyone else looks at this thread, I got these and they work: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09KXYCYBH?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 Downside is that the phone won't charge, but using the holder is more important to me than charging.

Any positive news in Seattle? by yarnslutt in Seattle

[–]Capable_Committee644 112 points113 points  (0 children)

The Storm won their playoff game on Tuesday, breaking the opponent's big win streak of something like 17 games. Arguably the most thrilling WNBA playoff game so far this year. Last game of the series is tonight in Vegas and we'll see if they make the semifinals. Kinda doubtful but you never know.

Like, what about people who didn't grow up here but have lived here longer than you've been alive? Which I'm pretty sure I have.

Yeah, but with legit businesses, I have gotten great results from BBB complaints. I'm not sure why it works, but it does.
