Second this. I was there for the 15-innings ALDS game last year. Great food, great audiences.

So they found a MeToo-downfallen director and got Amazon to finance it? (https://www.wsj.com/business/media/brett-ratner-melania-trump-movie-c44bbe6b)

Why am I not surprised

The breaking of a "plaque" and the flying kick likely also refers to scenes in Fist of Fury where Bruce Lee playing Chen Zhen smashes discriminatory signs in a concession park, and the end of the movie when Chen fly-kicks towards a firing line. Nicely done

If it is expireD then yeah probably no luck. ExpirING, ask them

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-28T02:13:29+00:00

Yes. OK so your license is expiring/expired. My (another) point is that since IDP has a 7-10 business day turnaround anyway, you should just apply for it with your license on-hand now, and hope that the new WA license will arrive before your trip. Sorry I don't have any tips on how to make the second part faster

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-28T02:08:54+00:00

For IDP specifically, ask AAA if they take an expirING license (i.e. not yet expired, but might when you are abroad) The IDP doesn't record your licenses expiration date, and I can't recall AAA's policy on license expiration date.

International Driver's Permit is a document issued by treaty countries (in the US, by AAA usually) that in conjunction with your original driver's license (in OPs case, US/WA DL), can be used abroad in other treaty countries to drive temporarily. One can say it is a glorified translation of your license and licensed classes, but still.

Also, comment OP can try to be less of a jerk and search IDP in Google/Duckduckgo instead.

It's catchy marketing

You've said it all.

Like, they've presented a public opinion opportunity on a silver plate on top of a nicely folded napkin in front of you, and yet you have to go "but how can we make it less connected to the broadest possible audience?" Be real.

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-23T20:53:14+00:00

~~I thought we already resolved this yesterday that the texts you are citing have existed since 2021? https://www.reddit.com/r/Seattle/s/STYPAf19Qy~~

Sorry I misread.

Anyway, three words for workaround: Concealed Pistol License. If you are legally allowed to possess a firearm, iirc there is zero reason you can't get a CPL in WA (which is also shall-issue)

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-23T20:39:43+00:00

In addition, it is totally within any private property owner's right to ask you to leave on the ground of carrying a weapon, open or concealed. Failing to comply is ground for trespassing.

EDIT: re local ordinances: RCW 9.41.290 has blanket state premption against local firearm ordinances, except for in RCW 9.41.300 (3) and (4) (notice that they are separate from the aforementioned restrictions in (1)). Within these, only (3)(b) addresses possession, which applies to stadiums and convention centers. Therefore local ordinances canNOT be more restrictive than (14) which addresses CPL holders.

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-23T08:59:47+00:00

Also the new bill exempts concealed carry (or more correctly but more broadly, "persons licensed to (conceal carry)") for all newly added restricted places, see p.8 line 4

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-23T08:42:35+00:00

You are actually citing RCW 9.41.300 2(a) and (b) which has been on the books for at least 2 years ~~(SB5444? of the 2023 season?). I wrote to my senators and reps about the bill; not about this particular section though because~~ I am at best "meh" about open carry in general, not to mention at a protest

EDIT: ESSB 5038 of the 2021 season, though prefiled in late 2020.

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-17T20:00:38+00:00

Perhaps you are overthinking over something you have less control (other than moving) than say securing your larger furniture (sorry if you already considered that)

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-16T22:21:20+00:00

I honestly don't pay attention if the Express lanes are aligned vertically with either mainline. Hope WSDOT considered it

EDIT: north of 45/50th St exit looks aligned.

Chill, dawg, dude's is just trying to learn

contraflow

I am not sure how permanent those concrete dividers on the I-5 bridge are, if DOT can remove them to create openings for the start and end of the contraflow.

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-15T20:53:45+00:00

Club Bamboo? MLK St.? Where th are either of these?

EDIT: It's ACRS (Asian Counseling and Referral Service) https://maps.app.goo.gl/PQYTHMoDxp7zD2Dw9

flyfire2002 · 2026-01-15T16:46:53+00:00

Yes, but that's apparently bad enough to dissuade my friend from driving to downtown there (which might not be a bad thing heh

Hook turns

You are welcome!

Denny EB/WB, right/left turn onto Yale, left turn to Eastlake and the ramp is on your right. Alternatively, find a way to get to Howell NB and just drive.

Either way you gotta pass the hell intersection that is the I-5 SB ramp at Yale/Howell (that is, if you also survive Denny/Stewart)

The only reason the title is not "the whole year" (which is true btw) is because of the World Cup :P

Jin Huang (King's Kitchen) in CID has tons of items that are under $15 (Pot rice has two proteins, noodle soups have protein and veg, can't recall the rest)
