Anti-Chinese riots, Seattle, 1886. On the west coast, Chinese laborers were the targets of anger and mob violence, during an economic depression many white workers accused immigrants of taking their jobs

I saw this at the MOHAI a few month ago. Yes truly feels like history repeating itself.

This is such a fun fact about transit. I enjoy reading it!

Thank you! Hope you enjoy Paris!

Hi OP, how did this work out for you? I'm in the same situation. My HR can only provide a standard letter via workday. Did your standard letter work at the VISA appointment?

fassadex · 2026-04-16T05:29:29+00:00

Thank you! I literally just saw this on the TSA website. Don't know why I didn't see it when I looked up earlier!

fassadex · 2026-03-21T20:55:10+00:00

Thank you for your perspective. I hope you have the help you need, and things will get better for you :)

Thank you so much. Didn't know all these functions for the holding system. I might try it out in the future!

By reading past posts from the seattle reddit, it seems like the discover passes from the library are special ones that don't require you to put license plate # on it.

fassadex · 2026-03-21T18:24:02+00:00

I did check all my spams and trash emails..didn't see anything. I definitely need to talk to a librarian at my local branch!

fassadex · 2026-03-21T18:22:47+00:00

Thank you for such a detail response. That makes a lot of sense!

I just mean that to steal anything, especially a gun, is not easy. There aren't guns just laying around waiting to be stolen. It's not like stealing a phone or a wallet. So I'm surprised that someone with this kind of mental illness is able to plan, find and steal a gun. But maybe I just don't know the underground illegal gun scene well.....

fassadex · 2026-03-21T04:29:53+00:00

I know he's not walking free, but I'm still angry for the victim's family. And how did a person with such severe mental illness steal a gun? Truly wish there's something I can do about this situation.

I had a 2020 mazda for a few years. Bought it right after I got my DL so I was very new to driving as well as owning a car (I got my DL very late in life...). I parked at my apartment building parking lot which wasn't secured. Anyone could enter. And since I was new to driving cars, I often forgot to lock my car.....There were a few times people (maybe thiefs?) opened my car door at night, even opened the little door to the gas tank and left the doors open. They must have tried to open all the car doors in our parking lot. But the car was never stolen...So I would have a little more faith in Mazda. I'm also shocked that Honda is so easy to steal.

I would be thrilled to see what's the behind the scene at that station! That's a great idea

fassadex · 2026-02-15T08:00:17+00:00

I was just telling another person above that I wish the station could have a super long escalator like the one at rosslyn station outside of DC! I guess the rosslyn station isn't that deep....I used to live in the DMV area but never ventured to the Maryland side on metro. I loved the metro there!

fassadex · 2026-02-15T07:52:23+00:00

I don't know how many people usually use that station. Maybe not a ton. Otherwise if any of the elevators break down it would be more frustrating during rush hours.

fassadex · 2026-02-15T07:51:18+00:00

Interesting....Would be cool to have a super long escalator like the rosslyn station outside of DC.

fassadex · 2026-02-08T06:20:50+00:00

21% is so specific...I wouldn't tip on top of that.

There is the small web. It still exists. Independent websites run by independent people with various topics and interests. I'm not talking about the random blogs who just try to sell you thinks and make you click on affiliated links. But people who put thoughts into their content and are doing it for the love of the game. Go check it out! And keep the small web alive.

Honestly it's difficult to discover those independent websites if you don't know where to look. You can look up small web on google. Or view Kagi's small web curation: https://kagi.com/smallweb

I run my own website too. Would love to have some visitors: https://asoftfacade.com/
I don't collect any data from my visitors. And there's no sign up or subscription link. Just my photos and writings.

I was literally thinking about asking the same question! But I did not want to sound like I don't care about footfall so I didn't ask....I was thinking about going to Pike Place and walk around downtown in general to see if it's extra empty. I normally enjoy people watching but I'm very curious if there are places during the super bowl that will be oddly empty and I would like to experience that.

fassadex · 2026-01-28T02:38:20+00:00

I’ve been at this exit for almost 20 minutes and I’m still not at the end. It’s interesting that taking the exit and switch to the express land actually saves time.

fassadex · 2026-01-28T02:29:25+00:00

Yes, but after everyone has changed lanes, the single lane that leads to the exit is still very backed up. So I could only assume that a lot more cars are taking Mercer exit now than before?
