When I last flew with Alaska/Hawaiian it was January. I booked a Hawaiian flight through Alaska. I couldn't check in. Apparently there was another secret Hawaiian confirmation number I had to check in with via the Hawaiian app no one had ever told me about. Changing my return flight also was a pain.

Posting of Japanese Exclusion Order (No. 17, dated April 24, 1942), Seattle, 1942

I never thought of it this way and I think you're right!

I did both and started biking again for the first time since college with my then 18 month old, haha. Can confirm the radicalization was precipitous.

Mayor Murray, Durkan, and Harrell were all unwilling to make the hard calls to transform our dangerous streets. As a result we're still talking about the same five streets where the most people are getting injured and killed: Aurora Ave N, Rainier Ave S, 4th Ave S, Lake City Way, and MLK Jr Way S.

Every time I bring this issue up, people make excuses for @seattleparksandrec.bsky.social, like for example, “but the pipes might freeze,” as though a bathroom in a park is some wild frontier technology that nobody has ever figured out before.

Train front, train body, train back all knit up in the style of Sound Transit light rail. Ends can be seen hanging out. There is a boxer dog butt.

All the pieces are finished! I just need to block and tuck in ends, then sew it together!

I have no horse in this race as long as they continue to avoid the bike jumps, but it's fascinating battle here between Lincoln HS parents and neighborhood NIMBYs. My April 25th at 10am is already booked though. Someone go and tell me all about it. fremontneighbor.com/sps-communit...

I am always sad that wandering around the wilderness identifying plants and naming them after yourself is no longer a viable career path.

Stuffed! Toy-sized! Gonna make some adjustments and knit a second version when this one is done and demand Sound Transit trade me for a Boop stuffie, lol.

Phinney Station, but it's PACKED on a nice day.

It’s that time of year again when I search in vain for a family-friendly outdoor venue like this. Any new recommendations?

Knit Sound Transit light rail train takes shape. We’re onto the windows on the other side.

Choo-choo update. Coming around the other side now. I did other things today, so less progress.

Windows and doors. I should probably go do chores for awhile instead of leaning into the ADHD hyperfocus.

Test knit of a Sound Transit train, just finished the “wave.”

CHOO-choo!

AI is negatively impacting our youth both academically and emotionally. Additionally, there is an enormous environmental impact and it is coming for Seattle, if we don't stop it.

It’s based off someone elses’s pattern for the shape, but I charted Sound Transit edition myself. Now I’m gonna test knit it. Unlike the original, I plan to not use intarsia, so we’ll see how ridiculous these floats are. I figure it will be inside the train when sewn up so not a big deal.

Back on my bullshit. Your immediate question should be, "What is Beth Day procrastinating?"

But now, with Mayor Wilson, I have hope!

We’re still talking about the same streets,” said the Seattle Streets Alliance Executive Director Gordon Padelford. Namely Rainier Avenue, Aurora Avenue, Martin Luther King Jr. Way, Lake City Way, and Fourth Ave South, which are areas already flagged by the Seattle Department of Transportation as hot spots for injuries. “And the ingredient that’s been missing has not been a lack of ideas or commitment from SDOT, it’s been a lack of political will.” Specifically, he said, making tough changes to streets that might inconvenience drivers, but ultimately increase safety.
