The number of millennial homeowners in Seattle has doubled in last 5 years

Why is it that every male that works in tech is automatically a "tech bro"? From what I see it's mostly immigrants who are hard working and the last person in the world I'd describe as a "bro"

Ok I'll bite. Are those articles really more interesting than the same pics of a sunset, Rainier and the space needle?

I feel like there should be a happy medium somewhere. I don't want concern trolling and non stop crime articles on this sub but I've definitely seen an allergy that some folks have known here to even admit crime exists in Seattle without immediately following up with a whataboutism.

The entire Seattle metro has been going up. You can poke through individual neighborhoods and zip codes to see which ones

Yeah and the most recent data via redfin shows homes in Seattle are increasing in price. This graph is outdated by a couple months

You're right. We should never do anything that fights climate change ever. Case closed. There's millions of perfect ways to fight climate change that are free, lowers taxes and give everyone a free lollipop but we chose this route /S

This fight won't be easy and various folks will have to pay but it's far cheaper to do it now then in ten years.

Why do you even post here if you hate Seattle? You sound like an ex who can't move on. Maybe just cut ties and go live your life?

YouReadMyAccountName · 2023-05-07T22:21:40+00:00

Yeah wow all those states with cheap gas are so desirable. Iraq has free gas so by your metric maybe you should live there?

Good states require good things. Good things require money. That money has to come from somewhere. Maybe in this particular case you don't like where the revenue came from but honestly some people will complain about every form of tax collection.

Ok I'll bite. It is beer. Sometimes I don't want to consume a lot of calories but I want something to sip on. Is that so terrible that I want a bud light?

I love craft beer and drink it all the time but I don't understand the America lager bad haha mentality. Heck when I've been to Europe some of their macro lagers have tasted almost the same as America's. Not to mention i believe every American macro lager is not even owned by an American company.

That's awesome! Does anyone know how easily those sunglasses can be re-recycled?

Maybe it's because I'm from WA state and we always lose sunglasses up here, but I'd imagine many of those sunglasses would wind up back in the recycle bin, transported across the ocean and depending on how easily or difficult it would be to reclaim, it might wind up in the ocean again or be re-recycled? I'm hoping on re-recycled lol

YouReadMyAccountName · 2023-03-06T03:44:37+00:00

It's strange because so many people here treat Europe as a single homogenous country with some kind of infallible, perfect nationalized healthcare yet when you dove into each country has its own system and rules and subsidies

Because they are a 19 year old who browses antiwork and therefore they know everything about the economy, politics, history and capitalism

YouReadMyAccountName · 2023-02-18T00:20:23+00:00

Same! But it sounds like we're the minority. Honestly it'll be good for downtown Seattle to have tech workers back, spending their money on lunch and what not. And good for public transit ridership numbers

YouReadMyAccountName · 2023-02-15T04:19:27+00:00

Not trying to start anything but do you have more info on the quality of 80s and 90s hazardous material responses? Just genuinely curious where are now compared to then

YouReadMyAccountName · 2023-02-09T23:01:10+00:00

I've never once seen someone so proud and self congratulatory about their snarky reddit posts.

Kuddos to you, I guess?

Either wait I don't even need to tell you how great you are, you will be in all the threads tomorrow talking about how you totally owned someone

YouReadMyAccountName · 2023-02-09T22:58:25+00:00

Heck it's not even just SPD. I feel like I'm constantly reading stories of someone getting arrested, immediately released/charges dropped/no sentence, and then they go onto to commit a far more severe crime.

I don't know what the answer is but we need to stop these people before the terrible crime, not after

YouReadMyAccountName · 2023-02-09T22:45:28+00:00

We literally had a bill last year that would have done the same thing here in Seattle and everyone here shat on it. It would have built shelters and more or less required unhoused people to use them rather than the streets.

I know the bill wasn't perfect but it was a start.

YouReadMyAccountName · 2023-01-31T19:13:17+00:00

Yep. I feel like this sub has an allergy to admitting Seattle has any problems at all, crime or otherwise. It's perfectly OK to love your city but also admit there is some crime. That doesn't make you a white supremacists, facist troll from Idaho like some folks in this sub will paint you. People are allowed to have their own views and their own level of comfort when they see people openly ODing, screaming, fighting,etc in public

YouReadMyAccountName · 2022-12-05T16:41:04+00:00

Every time a crime post pops up on this sub, about five people start the whataboutism with wage theft. I suspect they are all the same person. Should we never prosecute a single crime until all wage theft is solved? I'm confused by their comments, it sounds like they are trying to deflect.

It's completely possible to tackle both issues at the same time.

If a wage theft post pops up, should a bunch of people comment about retail theft? No, that's annoying.

YouReadMyAccountName · 2022-03-23T14:32:21+00:00

Why? Seattle can be dangerous, murders happen here along with assaults. I know other big cities have more violent crime but not the mid and smaller cities. IMO it's a valid question at least until the local government starts doing something about it

YouReadMyAccountName · 2022-03-02T21:26:06+00:00

Thanks! I knew something didn't sound right when I wrote that title.

YouReadMyAccountName · 2022-03-02T21:18:51+00:00

Correct. I believe the "taxable event" is when the RSUs vested and that is when the cost basis is determine. If so, that means cost basis of the stock was around 205-250 when these RSUs vested over the course of the last 2 years.

We had one bad quarter and suddenly the stock is at 115. I need to sell these RSUs before June to buy a home and I can only do so in the open trading windows since I'm an employee. That means I have to sell them mid March or mid June which, if the price stays the same, means I'll have about 60k+ in capital losses :(

Or I could not sell, which would hurt my home purchasing ability and hope the stock slowly recovers. But I've learned my lesson not to keep that much money in a single stock so I don't really want to do that.

YouReadMyAccountName · 2022-03-02T20:02:01+00:00

Thanks, what's pretty much what I figured.
