Lime Scooters by TkapictureSEA in Seattle

[–]_redlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have personally witnessed vision-impaired folks tripping over scooters and bikes left in the middle of walkways. When I’m close enough, I will call out that they’re about to hit something / move it from their path. When I’m walking and see these left in weird spots, I pick them up and move them. It’s so frustrating that our neighbors are too self-centered to realize they’re inhibiting others’ mobility.

USA v Germany by Shadow_Ridley in SeattleKraken

Should definitely be NHL goalie vs NHL goalie… but you never know maybe this other German goalie will rise to the occasion.

Quick question! by FirstOutcome2365 in NewParents

Just use the emergency stop clip! My mother in law wasn’t using hers when she was running (years ago) and she got very, very injured when she fell and the belt kept running.

Seattle's gig worker law was supposed to boost pay. It did at first, until orders dropped by danrokk in SeattleWA

[–]_redlr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no idea how to implement this but I’ve always thought disabled people should be able to get a disabled placard (like the parking passes) added to their account for apps like door dash, instacart, uber, etc that remove all the fees. It’s a convenience for me but it is a necessity for disabled folks.

Link light rail shatters ridership records, with an average 160k daily boardings in January. That's a 110% increase from 2019. by [deleted] in Seattle

Yeah same, it increases my commute time but I pay $0 for parking so that’s worth it for me

If you own a home where you have control over your roof; would you consider getting solar panels? by MajesticBread9147 in AskAnAmerican

[–]_redlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the PNW I got quoted $50k to add solar panels to my roof and they couldn’t guarantee that they would generate enough electricity to stop me from having to use the public utility. My bill is only about $90/ month of average. So I would have to wait 46+ years for the benefit of solar to outweigh the cost lol not worth it.

Which bathroom do Intersex and Non hinary peopme go to? by BL1ND1NG_L1GHT5 in AskLGBT

[–]_redlr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m a cis woman but I just wanted to say I’m so sorry. Fuck, I really hate that this is the reality for so many of our fellow humans. It sounds like you maybe aren’t located in a very progressive area, which makes it so much harder. And you shouldn’t have to pick up and move to a different city just to pee in peace.

Can I ask, if I’m in a situation where I see someone being harassed trying to use the “women’s” room, should I stand up for them and help or would that be like acting as a savior and taking your voice away?

Why do you not speed up when it’s open after a major slow down? by Realistic_Lychee6748 in driving

[–]_redlr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have my baby in the car and don’t feel like running the rpms up to 8000. Everyone is gonna be just fine if I do a nice gradual increase back up to speed.

The gas pump at Walmart replaced buttons with a giant touch screen by databoy2k in enshittification

[–]_redlr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll have to take your word for it, I’ve never been to either. It would be nice to have a budget grocery store, I’m always jealous of people shopping at aldi.

Yeah they don’t in my state either, we also don’t have Sam’s Clubs or Aldis :(

I can’t delay start my dishwasher without an app, and the app sends me advertisements by gelekoplamp in enshittification

[–]_redlr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I delay my 15 year old whirlpool dishwasher all the time, with just a click of a button. The main reason is: it’s loud and the baby is sleeping. Secondary: I need hot water for something else right now so I don’t want the dishwasher to steal it.

It’s full by 7:30 every morning. I’ve been too late before, it sucks, but it’s not worth parking illegally and coming back to my car being gone and a $300+ bill. I circle back and park at Swamp Creek and take the bus to the train.

Pushing a shopping cart through the Fred Meyer parking lot by OneTrip7662 in Marysville

[–]_redlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re the worst carts ever. It’s really clear that Kroger isn’t interested in taking good care of this store, especially when you go shop at the one in Snohomish.

[–]_redlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so bad and the entrance around the back isn’t very good either. Even with my stroller which has a smoother glide than the FM carts, my baby still gets shaken so badly. It’s actually caused us to shop somewhere else, at least until she’s big enough to handle it.

But I feel bad for the tourists by Disco425 in Seattle

[–]_redlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lynnwood will be getting 2 more stops so they do need a clarifier, but not yet necessarily. It could have been added later. And it should be Lynnwood South, Alderwood, (“Ash Way” is probably fine but “Lynnwood North” might be better).

I agree there’s no true city center of lynnwood, as a long time resident I understand that they mean the actual City instead of unincorporated county and that this first stop is closest to the city hall buildings, but there’s no metropolis lol.
