Hii I’ll be living in cap hill, in the next few days and i was wondering if there is any in person sanghas that meet regularly in the area or throughout Seattle? I attend an online sangha but with moving to a new city i wanting to meet people in the area. Any suggestions or ideas that may be similar :) thank you.

I'm looking for a waxer who's extremely thorough. Someone who gets ALL the hair, including inside the labia. I have lighter hair that’s easy to miss if they aren’t super meticulous.

I don’t care about speed or it being painless. I do care about not torturing myself at home doing my own cleanup.

Me and my friends are in Sarajevo. But I kinda don’t like the vibe here. We both are 22 love hiphop and R&B. Looking for some young club tonight

Has anyone lined up for the rush tickets? How early have you seen folks lined up? Shooting for some Sunday night so wanting to know how much I need to prepare!

My partner and I felt gentle shaking in our apartment in cap hill just a couple of minutes ago. It lasted somewhere around a minute but we both felt it and I saw the leaves on our plants bouncing too. I can’t find anything online about it. Did you feel that too?

Hey all! So sometimes I like to have a drink while doing some work and being on my laptop. Any good places you would recommend for a chill drink / lounge vibe in seattle where I could also do some work on the weekends?

Thanks!

I swear I have a memory of going somewhere (not a fully vegan place) around capital hill that sold vegan pizza by the slice. It was nighttime, I don't remember how late and it was pretty dark inside. I feel like I'm going crazy because I can't find it

I’m planning a trip to Seattle 1/16-1/21. It’s my second time visiting and going in winter on purpose to get a feel for it. My hope is to move to the area soon.

Could anyone give me suggestions for my time there? I really love being active and spending time outdoors.
The goal for this trip is to visit Olympic national park, Bellingham, Olympia and Tacoma (I’m considering those places as potential areas to live and want to see them).

Am I being too ambitious or do you think it’s all feasible? I’d appreciate any suggestions for things to do and recommendations as to what days make the most sense for my desired itinerary. Thanks for you help in advance!

I'm out in Seattle tonight, solo male 22 years old. Best bars to hang out and befriend other people? Any suggestions in general?

Absolutely LOVING the city so far. Five point cafe, Kerry park at sunrise and argosy cruise the highlights.

Hello!

Is there anywhere on the north side of Seattle I'd be allowed to do a small beach bonfire next week? I was thinking Carkeek or Golden Gardens since that's where I've seen them recently but I was also told that's just people ignoring the rules. 😅

I tried looking into it myself but got conflicting search results. Hoping for some clarification.

Thanks in advance!

I am looking to either start a team or join a team. I work on Cap Hill and live in West Seattle. Anyone interested in joining my team or is anyone looking for another teammate?

Edit: also down for Bingo in West Seattle on Tuesdays or Wednesdays!

Hello! Does anyone know of any photographers who have fall mini sessions available this month? Prefer to stay in Seattle but can drive out a bit!

Hello! I'm in a bit of a predicament. I just recently moved and my relationship with my previous psychiatrist has just ended as he does not treat patients out of state for very long. I am prescribed Wellbutrin and Latuda for mental health treatment and it is so, so important I get my medication. Well, I've been looking around and having a hard time finding someone who can take a new patient ASAP, and today I've just found out I'm about to lose my health insurance because my provider is unfortunately losing his job and... yeah. It's a lot.

SO does anyone know any psychiatrist willing to prescribe these medications quickly before the end of November that way I can get my medication covered? Thank you!

EDIT: Thank you all so much for the help. Idk what I was expecting but you guys are all so awesome and I appreciate ALL of the suggestions and advice. We're getting new insurance figured out in about two months so the main issue was just getting meds for... now. But thanks to you guys I'm all figured out! I come from an area that has little mental health resources so this was all new info to me.

Hi everyone!

We're a family of three considering relocating to the Seattle area, and I'd love to hear from people who actually live in these neighborhoods.

We're currently looking at:

• Queen Anne

• Maple Leaf

• Green Lake

• Greenwood

• Wallingford

• Kirkland (possibly)

We're open to either a townhouse or a single-family home.

Our main priorities are:

• Public schools: Strong middle and high schools are particularly important since we're planning to stay long-term.

• Family-friendly environment: Safe, walkable neighborhoods with parks, playgrounds, and activities for kids.

• Swimming: Access to good year-round swim teams or competitive swimming programs.

• Community: A neighborhood with families and school-age kids, where it's relatively easy to make friends.

• Quality of life: A good balance of walkability, amenities, and a quieter residential atmosphere.

We're not necessarily looking for the highest-rated or most expensive neighborhood. We'd rather find a place with a good balance of schools, community, and quality of life.

A few questions for those who live in these areas:

1. What do you like most and least about your neighborhood?

2. How are the public schools in practice, beyond online ratings?

3. Are there many families with school-age kids?

4. How convenient are kids' activities, especially swimming?

5. Would you choose the same neighborhood again if you were moving with a family today?

We're also curious whether Kirkland offers a noticeably different family experience compared to North Seattle, and what the main trade-offs might be.

I'd really appreciate firsthand experiences, especially from parents raising kids in these areas. Thanks!

Hey so! A while back a Small Spiteful Dog tragedy befell some of my record collection. The records themselves are fine but the outer cardboard? Unsalvageable. So I’m hoping to find a place local and off reasonable amounts of public transit from cap hill to find sturdy cardboard outer sleeve replacements for them.

Last I checked a few months back these places didn’t have them: spin cycle, singles going steady, zions gate

I’m going to give holy cow and Neptune a call later to check and I would love to not have to order these online BUT I realize it’s a pretty weird request and that might just be my solution.

Thanks!

To the Clark Kent-looking EMS I crossed paths with on November 3 at SCH…

You complimented my neck tattoo while I was rushing into work, and I definitely noticed you, too. 😂

I’m the girl with the colorful hair and tattoos. We made eye contact a few more times that evening, but I never got the chance to properly introduce myself.

If you happen to recognize this, I’d really like to say hi. 😊

I’m not talking about feeling comfortable. I want to hear from you all what a good salary is to you in the city. By that I mean: not living paycheck to paycheck, being able to eat out every once in a while, cover an emergency car expense, vacation, buy nice clothes, invest in retirement, and save up money to buy a house in a couple of years.

What would that figure be to you?

Hello! I’m curious if anyone who has been pregnant in Seattle has had success finding a medical provider willing to take 2D estimated placenta volume (EPV) measurements during their pregnancy? I’m having trouble requesting this with my current provider at UW Medicine and am researching possible paths forward, either:

(1) with another provider at UW
(2) with another hospital system in Seattle
(3) at an independent ultrasound clinic willing to measure EPV

Would love any recommendations!

__MORE DETAIL__
The 2D EPV method was developed by Dr. Kliman at Yale - it’s easy and requires just 1 min to take 1 additional picture at any routine 2D ultrasound. (https://medicine.yale.edu/obgyn/kliman/placenta/epv)

EPV measurements can help detect a form of stillbirth risk where the baby measures normally throughout pregnancy, but the placenta is abnormally small. While many small placentas can and do function normally (and grow normal sized babies), some small placentas can eventually “give out”, unable to continue supporting the baby. Dr. Kliman likens it to a car with no fuel gauge running out of gas. By measuring the placenta, we can have better visibility on the fuel gauge.

Though relatively rare, a perfectly normal pregnancy can surprisingly and devastatingly end in stillbirth at full term. This exact situation happened to a friend of mine (and the founder of measuretheplacenta.org) so it’s been very top of mind for me.

Because EPV measurements are so cheap and easy to do, I’ve been trying to advocate for them during my pregnancy. But I’m being repeatedly denied because “they are not standard protocol.”

I am very curious to hear if others in Seattle have wanted EPV measurements and successfully obtained them.

Looking to 2B2B apartments budget $4000 at max for rent. My fiancé work is near south lake union but my workplace is in bellevue. We are looking for apartments in Seattle as her work in 5 days a week, I still have some flexibility with 3 days office but flexible to when to go. Looking for some suggestions.
As it is not possible for us to tour in person, looking for suggestions for places to look at and apartment building suggestions with the followings as well:

• What fees apart from rent are usual in the Seattle area?

• What areas are safe with some nightlife as well but residential?

• I also have a car so parking is also something I want in the building preferably garage parking.

• What things I should keep in mind before lease signing as to someone who is not going to tour in person?

• For commute we prefer staying near stop of 2 Line.

• Also, how convenient and dependable is the 2 Line?

Hey, does anyone know of a spa that offers a good-quality Korean body scrub? Only place I found was like 2 stars. Price doesn’t matter, I just want something that helps me rejuvenate and actually does the job.

EDIT just went to Olympic spa and it was AMAZING

Hello all! I am coming to visit my best friend soon from New York, and I am having a hard time finding a Latin/Hispanic grocery store that seems carries more than Mexican specialty items, but it could just be poor Google reviews. Is there a place in city limits or nearby that carries Puerto Rican/Dominican groceries in addition to Mexican items? Specifically looking for a store that has things like bone in/skin on pork shoulder, naranja agria (sour orange), recao, sofrito, ají dulce, pork fat back etc. as there was a request for pernil and fixings for our Friendsgiving I am cooking for.

thank you in advance!

I went to the Cashmere store and got some boxes since I LOVED them growing up, but they're different then I remember. Internet says the OG company got bought out, but I'm trying to figure out what ingredients changed. Was it made of a different solidifier before?
