Life tip: Get yourself this friend group #bunchfam #cargobike
Also: Pump your tires before you do this!

If they wanted to analyze houses by:
- detached vs not
- number of bedrooms
- ownership model
They should have run something like a maxdiff or (better) just asked a separate question and run some crosstabs.

So much overlap between those sections, it feels like a simple "3+ bedroom condo or apartment" category would obviously dominate

Close a downtown freeway ramp so I know you’re serious.
I’m reading the draft Seattle Downtown Regional Center Plan—drinking every time it says “dynamic,” “vibrant,” or “activated” without a clear path to achieve that result—and I’m on the verge of death by alcohol poisoning.

This was a key bit of world building: neither cardassians nor romulans tolerate people with disabilities. Geordi was even told he would have been killed for his blindness as a child!
In star trek, acceptance is a trait of the heroes and intolerance is a mark of the villains.

In DS9 they discussed that station was not accessible.
Most of the crew had simply never thought of it until they met someone in a wheelchair and watched them try to navigate it.

I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them."
That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

As I've been on a roll with Star Trek threads today, let's continue with this one: you know one of the best parts of Geordie's visor?
90% of the time, nobody fucking mentions it.

Currently obsessed with the "Welcome To Delridge" sign.
The slogan has evolved from "Home of Longfellow Creek" (2011?-2017, 2021-2023) to "Gateway to Majestic White Center" (2018) "Future Home of the Purple Line" (2019) and, as of September 2025, "AKA East West Seattle or North White Center"

PubliCola confirmed this morning that the city settled with Jaahnavi Kandula's family for $29,011,000. The added $11,000, which the family requested in their lawsuit, is a reference to then-police guild vice president Daniel Auderer's "joke" that Kandula's life was only worth that much.

Those are 3 extremely different products, with different uses and underlying technologies. (Well, nfts and crypto are close)
But that's like lumping together microwaves and heat pumps bc they both make things warm

It’s really surprising to see how much increased fare enforcement has benefited BART.
Keeping transit facilities clean and safe is very important for transit riders to get around. And using agency time on preventable maintenance is waste that could be reallocated to more service.

The cycle of lights at every busy intersection should be cars on one axis, pedestrians and bikers do whatever, cars on the other axis, pedestrians and bikers do whatever. Everywhere. All the time.
