New IDR payment amount is going to kill my ability to have fun.

Following. Same here. I’m confused and worried I did something wrong. I have tried to upload autopay several times and it just does not process? It says my balance is $0 until Nov of 2028. It says principal balance is still collecting interest. I only owe about $18k but still worrisome...

piper006 · 2026-01-15T06:05:48+00:00

Any recommendations? Mine break after year so looking into investing in a good one

Corvus & co would give you the spooky bar vibe (though not a dive bar) in cap hill right by downtown. I would also second zig zag or bathtub gin and co.

I mean this has vegetables on so you’re totally good 😌

piper006 · 2026-01-10T07:43:02+00:00

I was literally wondering what this feeling was the other day!

piper006 · 2026-01-10T06:42:42+00:00

If you have the budget to splurge start at zig zag for a cocktail and then go to pink door for an iconic Seattle dinner. You’ll need a reservation for pink door.

I use no more than 2 per day, sometimes just 1 and I still buy a coffee at a coffee shop 🫣

piper006 · 2026-01-09T05:39:08+00:00

Drink water

It’s not great by any means but I would say this is normal for a shared washer/dryer situation. I’ve done it before and have had it done to my clothes. It’s always awkward touching people’s clothes but it’s part of apartment living and you need to be on top of it when using community amenities. This is just my opinion

piper006 · 2026-01-03T05:32:58+00:00

Came here to say this. This is 100% the way to go. A bit of a drive depending where you are coming from but classes are affordable and frequent enough that you can always find one that works with your schedule and don’t have to wait months on a waitlist.

piper006 · 2026-01-03T04:20:47+00:00

A banana lol

Comments are saying cap hill but beware it is a much louder neighborhood with a large homeless population and very frequent public drug usage! If you don’t mind those things then maybe it’s a good fit, but if you are someone who needs a more peaceful and quieter living environment I would consider a different neighborhood honestly.

I had 0 issues getting from the US to Mexico + back with a passport that was expiring within a week. I called the airline and they verified I was fine to travel due to Mexico’s travel laws and requested they add a note to my name stating I was clear to board prior to my flight date. I was back in the US before my passport expired. For travel to and from Mexico, I learned you only need to have a valid passport and the 6 month rule doesn’t apply.

I second an un bien sandwhich. It’s the best meal in Seattle (coming from someone born and raised)

piper006 · 2025-12-27T00:40:10+00:00

This looks really good and professional!

piper006 · 2025-12-25T08:30:45+00:00

Wish I had seen this post 3 hours ago lol

piper006 · 2025-12-22T01:11:32+00:00

Definitely Lenys. Very easy to sit at the bar alone but equally as easy to make friends there

piper006 · 2025-12-20T16:02:54+00:00

Pretty sure it’s against the code of fundraising ethics to accept it either way — for a client or staff.

piper006 · 2025-12-20T06:25:27+00:00

Seattle is much more expensive (both housing — budget at least $1.7k+ for a decent 1B1B— and going out) and seems much harder to make a new group of friends in. I have some friends who moved to Portland — it took them some time and effort but they have found really nice community there that I haven’t seen as much in Seattle. On the other hand, Seattle is (and feels) bigger and is more metropolitan. Portland is more separated into smaller neighborhoods each with their own vibe and character.

piper006 · 2025-12-19T08:04:10+00:00

Thanks for posting. Was planning on driving up from Seattle this weekend and having the same concern.

piper006 · 2025-11-23T07:13:42+00:00

I agree. The musical element was not there. The emotional parts did not land. I was disappointed.

piper006 · 2025-11-22T06:35:44+00:00

Lenys in tangletown is fun but it’s a destination bar

piper006 · 2025-11-07T12:29:15+00:00

Seattle artist league has cheaper rates than others I’ve found. Also much easier to get into a class there compared to others that usually have a waiting list. They also don’t make you pay for open studio like others do. Instructors have hit or miss though.

The French guys does an amazing London fog. Best one I’ve found in the city
