Apply for my former job! You will never learn more in your life than while working with @MikeLindblom
JOB ALERT! @seattletimes just posted an opening on our Traffic Lab. Come cover ferries, transpo politics and mobility. We also have a few other openings... seattletimes.applytojob.com/…
📢📢📢
Metro has zero. Only one light-rail station has them. Stores are restricting access. The city has just one with flushing toilets that's 24/7. Which makes life harder for almost everyone... Seattle has a restrooms problem seattletimes.com/seattle-new… (w/ @annaleapatrick @dkimreports)
I was saddled with some huge Life™️ bill when these tickets went for sale and my inner teen has never hated adult me more.
Silver lining: I get to live vicariously through @mrietmulder and all of my friends’ Insta stories. 🥲

Shuttered stores. New housing. This street was an 'Old Seattle' holdout. Now it's unrecognizable. What’s happening on Rainier Ave? seattletimes.com/seattle-new… (w/ @karenducey @_AileenClarke)

Students, want to intern at @seattletimes in summer 2024? We're taking applications now. They're due Nov. 3.
Come have a great experience in the best city to spend a summer in.

All the applause for @bell_tati’s sensitive reporting for this powerful story, which in combination with @ErikaJSchultz’s incredible photography (and the fantastic video she made with @laurenfrohne), give readers/viewers such a beautifully intimate look into this family’s life.
In my latest @seattletimes, I followed a family that fled Texas for WA to protect their trans daughter from anti-trans laws.
"The conservatives decided to go for the jugular," the mother said.
Amazing visuals from @ErikaJSchultz.

So proud of @avivabechky’s last piece as our summer Features intern. I’m biased, but I love the curiosity and care with which they approached the unwieldy topic of seafood sustainability and the questions it raises for local biz. We’ll miss you, Vi!

Hey folks! have you had your travel plans canceled b/c of the #mauifire? I'm looking to speak with Washingtonians/Seattle folks who are stuck in Hawaii due to the wildfires or have been impacted #journorequest
Two great stories from @bell_tati in today’s paper!
Here’s this on A1: seattletimes.com/life/family…
Excited to see my byline on A1 of @seattletimes: “He has influenced so many people through his words, his philosophy and his actions,” said Linda Lee Cadwell.

And here’s Tat’s lovely preview of @interim_cda’s lechon roast — which is starting tonight! — and how the event helps Seattle remember community organizer Uncle Bob Santos. seattletimes.com/entertainme…

A superb lede by @davidlgutman summarizes Seattle's split personality
"A city that is large and contains multitudes.
As Seattle hosts its first MLB All-Star Game in two decades, its virtues remain bright and its problems intractable" seattletimes.com/seattle-new…

No one (to our knowledge) has pulled together & analyzed decades of data on Seattle school integration like this. I'm proud to have worked on this project alongside so many community members & dedicated journalists. Please bookmark & share these stories, videos and tools. #waedu
🧵Special Report: After the landmark 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision, Seattle schools took the initiative to voluntarily integrate through busing and school choice policies. But today, some schools are more segregated than in the 1980s. #waedu st.news/schoolsegregation

Interesting article from 2015 pugetsoundradio.com/2015/04/…
Hey @WritersofColor, @seattletimes' Features team is looking for freelancers to help us with coverage throughout Pride month! 🏳️🌈 Ideally, they're based in the greater Seattle area and/or WA, but not a deal-breaker.
Interested? Please send work clips to aknauf@seattletimes.com.
Back on my BS in hopes of making any progress on my to-do list 🥲🎧

My family and I used to cross an international border into Canada to go to an Asian grocery store. Now I feel so lucky to live by so many of them —including @hmartofficial. This is where I’ve been going lately when feeling homesick and missing my family. seattletimes.com/entertainme…

Gotta feeling the just named-James Beard finalists' cafe is gonna be packed now. My review below.

“If you don’t have anybody that you know or that you see, you’re going to have a hard time feeling confident and feeling comfortable,” said performer GS Matencio, also known as Gaysha Starr.

This story is full of some crazy stats like:
"In Seattle, the average number of fatal hit-and-runs since 2016 has jumped from about 1 or 2 a year to 8.
On average, over the past 4 years in Seattle, drivers fled the scene in 2 of every 5 fatal pedestrian and bike collisions"
Fleeing a collision can be an act of self-preservation, fear of recrimination for another crime. crosscut.com/news/2023/03/fa…
