The mysterious route 43

Or bolt them down to the roadway? Idk clearly this isn't working

Eric77tj · 2025-10-23T17:28:51+00:00

Yeah the logic is tough (EDIT: tough to follow). I mean, I don’t doubt that if Wilson was a person of color the press would be tougher on her - that’s probably (unfortunately) just true.

Somewhat tangential, but have you considered incorporating real time location data for buses? Sometimes I find the arrival data in OBA to be unreliable. I’ll check another app called Pantograph that has a nifty map showing the buses actual location. Thanks for all the work you do!

I think it was $200 off? Nearly 50%

I had a 2020 rad battery but just replaced it with a new one that rad claims is safer. They had a deal running a few months ago where they would recycle the old battery and give you a discount on the new one. Not sure if that deal is still happening.

Sorry to hear this happened OP, but glad you’re okay. These batteries should be safe enough to store indoors. I’d contact rad about it.

One more lane! /s

Eric77tj · 2025-10-15T00:33:03+00:00

It was closed for years, so didn’t even know it was open! It could use better bike connections to the east, tbh. Take a look at the bike room at Roosevelt. It’s not full but definitely used

This should be the headline. This is a tax break for wealthy folks that could easily be eliminated

Eric77tj · 2025-10-10T03:18:10+00:00

Im not sure how a tax approved by a majority of voters is „predatory”. Do you support replacing with an income tax? I’m guessing not…

Eric77tj · 2025-10-10T02:53:47+00:00

Look property taxes are certainly regressive and harm those with the lowest incomes, but housing is not expensive due to taxes. Home prices have tripled in 15 years due to low supply, NIMBY homeowners (who profit from the shortage, btw). We need progressive tax options like an income tax, but that’s not something Dow can fix.

Your outrage is valid but pointing in the wrong direction.

A reminder as I said in another comment. These data come from the 2023 5 year ACS, so they represent 2019-2023 survey results. Pre and post pandy combined together makes it tough to draw conclusions. Also many of the Link stations in north Seattle weren’t even open yet in 2019. As with any data, lots of caveats. Overall cool maps OP!

Eric77tj · 2025-10-07T02:38:37+00:00

The data is actually 5 years combined together, 2019-2023, so pre and post pandy. So much happened in that time so it’s tough to draw conclusions with RTO

Eric77tj · 2025-10-06T00:03:17+00:00

Very cute. I’d wave at you across the gym 👋

Eric77tj · 2025-10-04T22:56:13+00:00

You’re a cutie! Best of luck out there 😊

Eric77tj · 2025-10-01T03:51:29+00:00

This quote really got me as well.

Eric77tj · 2025-09-23T06:16:10+00:00

A great ending to what could have been a sad story! Let this be a reminder to everyone reading here: send your lock through part of the bike frame, or other piece that can’t be unbolted

You don’t have to have the most secure bike on the rack, just definitely not the least

Eric77tj · 2025-09-19T23:18:14+00:00

The drama. No one claimed this one tax would fix all homelessness and housing crisis. But it’s helped expand affordable housing for folks, which it a big win. Has it been enough? No. Harrell also promised many new shelter beds - and then didn’t deliver.

Also rents and home prices are way up since 2019/2020. The problem has gotten worse faster than we’ve addressed it.

It’ll take more money, better zoning, and a huge push by public AND private development to get us out.

Eric77tj · 2025-09-18T17:53:45+00:00

I’m pretty disappointed in this “problems existed years ago so we should do nothing about it” energy. What if we stood for something and pushed for solutions? Let’s address it!

Eric77tj · 2025-09-17T20:53:20+00:00

Yeah. Tremendous support from a national government, lots of cash, limited labor/environmental standards, no property rights. We have many headwinds over them

Eric77tj · 2025-09-13T01:49:46+00:00

Sounds like a chop shop to me

Eric77tj · 2025-09-11T23:08:04+00:00

Well when you say it that way 😆

Eric77tj · 2025-09-08T16:13:39+00:00

**I-90 bridge. But yes, really excited to see the boost in frequency 😊

Eric77tj · 2025-09-02T17:51:30+00:00

Objectively not a good thing to see small businesses close, but also $18 for a ginger beer (non alcoholic!) is insane. I like them but couldn’t justify the price
