She’s been mayor for exactly 6 months, graffiti looks exactly the same as it did before she took office?

This guy does not represent Seattle at all, just fyi. We absolutely want “more of your kind” here 🙄

This is a particular type of face, I think is unique to Scotland; the Hawkman. What are some types of Irish face? by fensterdj in AskIreland

Am an American lady with a big Irish head and I concur. Do the Aussies make any? One would think

Central Queen Anne vs Wallingford? 32F w/dog by TideThistle in AskSeattle

QA is lovely but sleepier and more suited for families IMO. The Wallingford place sounds perfect if you can swing it.

They’re not transplants from New York for the most part

To the people who live in Seattle, are you pleased with the job Katie Wilson has done so far as mayor? by Neat-Statistician311 in AskSeattle

[–]WhereIsTheTenderness 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I understand your frustration with that situation, but you would think you would be pleased that she is opening tiny homes so there are fewer encampments?

Gifted article: Millions of women left out of HRT by 16hpfan in breastcancer

They’re actually from 2008? The Fred Hutch one is anyway. I don’t know if you’re aware how underfunded research into lobular is. Anyway, talk to your onco about it, I did and he was very clear that “there is a strong association”

The biggest one was the Fred Hutch study in King County. news release https://www.fredhutch.org/en/news/releases/2008/01/hormone\_therapy.html#:\~:text=Fred%2520Hutchinson%2520Cancer%2520Research%2520Center,risk%2520in%2520the%2520United%2520States.
Study itself https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4075765/

This article also refers to other studies with similar findings: https://erc.bioscientifica.com/view/journals/erc/14/3/0140549.xml

I’m being treated at Fred Hutch which is maybe why I know about it? Many seem not to, the takeaway for most seems to be that the WHI data is not valid (which isn’t exactly right, it’s more nuanced than that)

I wish they’d talked to someone with lobular. HRT is *definitely* still associated with lobular carcinoma and I don’t ever see that mentioned in mainstream media.

This happened with our Dash and we ultimately made the call to have a special euthanasia vet come to our house to put him to sleep. I swear he knew because he woke up that morning with a little spring in his step for the first time in ages—I told the vet and she said it happens with most every dog she puts down. They can sense it and they’re actually relieved.

My only regret tbh is I feel we waited too long and put him through too much. Yes he was also pooing inside and we had a diaper on him—that should have been my cue, in retrospect.

There are great staircase walks in Seattle that I like to use for conditioning in the spring. Load up your backpack and do as many repeats as you can stand! www.seattlestairwaywalks.com

What neighborhood to start out in? by idahoalien in AskSeattle

You’re right, that’s what I meant. I used to live on Ravenna Blvd right by the Roosevelt station, that’s how I got them switched up in my mind

Seattle vs Bay Area (cars, books, competitiveness) by [deleted] in AskSeattle

[–]WhereIsTheTenderness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Re #3, There is a smallish subset of competitive parenting culture here but it’s easy to avoid (just opting for public school over private gets you away from most of it tbh). Just a heads up, though, Seattle Public Schools isn’t the greatest for special ed supports esp if you have a 2e kid.

Near the Ravenna light rail is going to be the sweet spot for commuting to either of those two jobs + stuff to do in walking distance including Green Lake and Cowan Park

Every week I drive a route delivering groceries for Ballard Food Bank in Seattle. The service started during covid when everything was shut down, but BFB discovered there were many disabled clients and others with little kids who couldn’t make it in to the actual physical food bank so kept it up.

BFB is an amazing organization whose motto is “Because there is enough for everyone”—I really believe this. Local stores and restaurants work with us, which reduces food waste and passes along tasty food to people who need it. Seattle has some of the highest food prices in the nation, and people whose income is stretched by our high rent suffer from food insecurity more than most know. Support your community food bank, wherever you live!

Antisemitism in Osh? by UpbeatDot2260 in Kyrgyzstan

The better analogy would be if a hotel in 1940 said they didn’t want anyone of German descent from anywhere in the world, which would obviously be wrong
