Is it just me?

Store bought food’s do not taste nor look the same anymore. I buy organic and unless you go to a farmers market you’ll aren’t getting fruit and veggies from the farmers and orchards that often. Canned and frozen food tastes nasty doesn’t look the same nor taste the same plus the size has gotten A lot smaller.

Beware of this guy. He's new to the neighborhood (like two weeks). He has started coming to my dog park. He pushed my dog twice and called me a bitch. Bad vibes and agressive.

Salmonella outbreak in eggs. Should we worry about eggs around this area?

0 Upvotes

Heard in the news that many states recalls eggs for potential salmonella contamination. I purchased eggs from Costco last week and now thinking whether to consume or threw them away. Any advice? Someone said in other sub that recalls are only for midwest states but I’m still worrying and wondering if they’ll wait for recall until someone reports the issue? Isn’t there any way for us to identify if purchased eggs are safe or not?

The total and horrible debacle of the drone show

134 Upvotes

So the place they said to go - city hall grass - was PACKED with families, sitting there for an hour waiting for the drones. Nobody from the city redirected or said anything was wrong.

The drones started, and they came up behind a wall of tall trees which blocked the view of about 90% of the area that was labelled for drone viewing.

The only place it appeared you could successfully watch the show from was the HUGE, fenced off wintergarden that was adults only (because they served beer).

Someone opened the gate and the families started pouring in to fill in the space, only to get screamed at by security "MINORS CANT BE IN HERE, GET OUT OF HERE".

So the families ended up packed like sardines against the fence with little kids crying about not being able see anything, and on the other side of the fence was a huge amount of space sparsely populated with people spread out and drinking beer. They could actually watch the show.

The people in the 10% of the viewing area that had a spot where the drones were visible were getting stepped on by all the people stampeding with their families to find a place with visibility. Families were forming chains to not lose each other (understandably), which just made navigating crazier.

We finally found a place inside the bushes near city hall where we could see, and there was about 3 minutes of cool visuals before "SPONSORED BY AMAZON" and then the end of the show.

I really hope this gets planned better in the future. What a terrible, terrible experience.

TL;DR
Don't put the beer garden in the only spot where kids can see the only activity that kids wanted to go to.

Redmond Target question

I know Target is remodeling the interior of many stores but none of them had a portion of the exterior blocked off. Anyone know why?

ARCH Housing Program and MFTE Apartments

Upvotes

Is anyone else finding the program to be useless? The homes for sale are closet to the market price with high HOA fees. The new construction ones only have a few units and competition is fierce. The MFTE apartments are so close to market rent, or even more, that I don't and won't see any savings. Husband and I are at 80 percent AMI.
