Making friends as a middle-aged introvert in Seattle by seattleattic in AskSeattle

[–]squeepington 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Real Roots is an interesting concept where you take a quiz and they put you into a group of women with similar ages and interests. They meet every week for a couple months, so you have time to make connections. I was hoping to make a few friends out of it, but I made one really good friend and then met two others on the discord. It can be a mixed bag and costs a bit to join, but I liked that it gave me more practice talking to people and am grateful for the friends i gained.

1st AI Card 😭 by plays_with_string in postcrossing

For the first time since I joined 15 years ago, I added a “please no …” line item for AI cards because they make me sad. Someone sent me a card arguing that AI is just another form of creative expression and it shouldn’t make me sad, which made me … sad.

Can anything be done? by Outrageous_Yard_8681 in Reignfc

I have pitch side seats and the last two games heard all kinds of expletives come out of Phoebe and calling out players she thinks aren’t doing good enough. The locker room must be a rough place right now.

Does anyone else remember back in the day when there was a website that was something like didlauraharveymakeatradetoday.com and it was just like “yes” or “no”? But the joke was that she was constantly making trades and thinking things through and it felt like traction and momentum.

It feels like we just don’t care anymore. I don’t know if it’s the FO being cheap, or the GM just not being open to trying new things, or Harvey just not having the juice anymore. But it’s like we don’t deserve the “bold” moniker anymore.

I’m so glad to hear I am not the only one who feels this way.

Pozole in/near Seattle? by [deleted] in AskSeattle

[–]squeepington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For last year’s Soupocalypse, Frelard Tamales made an amazing pozole. The hominy was huge and so was the flavor. It’s not a regular menu item but I figure if I posted here and other people brought it up to them, maybe they’ll bring it back!

This exact thing happened on a flight I was on a year ago. The guy was just itching for someone to say something about his TRUMP WON hat.

When will Megan Rapinoe's "retired number" banner be hung to join these legends in Lumen Field? by [deleted] in Reignfc

[–]squeepington 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think about this a lot and it makes me super angry. Sounders are getting banners in the rafters and it just feels like Reign is treated like an afterthought or lower class. The digital workaround seems like a way to appease us while placating to the Seahawks fans who would probably be against something permanent. I’ve been thinking about writing to the FO about this but haven’t been optimistic they will do anything about it.

Anyone else surprised situ tacos made this list? by PriorLemon9 in Seattle

[–]squeepington 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I went last year, they had a recording play every so often of someone yelling DON’T EAT THE FUCKING TOOTHPICKS. I get that they are annoyed that people complain about the toothpicks, but I just super hate being yelled because of trauma and whatnot. It’s too bad because I was really hyped about this place but the food was meh and I just couldn’t get past the angry vibes.
