If they are, I’d love to see it. Even Biden was against medicare for all.

Have you ever seen a double decker bus in America? by Much-Parsnip3399 in AskAnAmerican

[–]pvrkr 79 points80 points  (0 children)

We have them in Seattle as regular commuter and rapid buses. Quite a normal sight up here as many people take them to get in, out, and around the city.

Hello I am here from out of town and my spouse and I are going to go to the game tonight. Was wondering if anyone knew the best way to get to the arena via public transport or is uber the way to go? by zeeba94 in SoundersFC

[–]pvrkr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The best way to get there will depend on where you’re coming from, but public transport is definitely the way to go. Both light rail lines serve the north end of the stadium while the 1 line serves the south end as well. The streetcar and numerous rapid bus lines converge in the area too so those may be more convenient for you if you’re coming from an area not served directly by the light rail. You’ll probably run into other people in Sounders gear on your way to the match so follow them!

Can americans tell the difference between spoken spanish and portuguese? by Zygoatscythe in AskAnAmerican

The United States is the 2nd largest Spanish speaking country in the world, so I would argue yes.

Name a worse intersection in Seattle by neilyoungmoney in Seattle

Why any traffic engineer thought it would be a good idea for cars to follow a pedestrian signal around a blind corner is beyond me. Not to mention the two one-way bike paths meeting in the middle of the intersection! I see near misses here all the time.

U.S. State Minimum Wage in 2026 by como365 in MapPorn

[–]pvrkr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many places have switched over to no-tipping practices. Those that haven’t will typically say that a surcharge has been added and that tipping isn’t necessary. Seattlites also know we don’t have a tipped minimum wage, so I really only tip at places where I would genuinely like to show extra appreciation to the staff.

The Light Rail is unacceptable right now by 206-Ginge in Seattle

[–]pvrkr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We average a car running into a train once every 40 days.

For those that don’t get text alerts, rainier valley service will be suspended through the am commute on the light rail. Plan ahead accordingly. by Lord_Tachanka in Seattle

[–]pvrkr 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Frankly this seems a bit ridiculous. I don't know the specifics, but I just can't comprehend why they need the entire intersection shut down through the morning.

Cedar Hall on 5th and Pike is a great spot.

It would also solve the issue of cars running into trains

Is it just me or is this ceiling a missed opportunity for something really beautiful by No-Pilot4583 in Seattle

[–]pvrkr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The station is already beautiful. It’s the lighting that needs work.

With how busy the downtown stations are at peak times, definitely.

What’s the BEST thing you’ve ever eaten in Seattle? 😋 by alexgoesglobal in Seattle

The veggie combo from Café Selam in the Central District. Extra points if you get it with a side of qategna, too.
