a crucial sigil in public space which was found in Cap Hill Seattle and which just showed up on my birpsite TL
@patience yeahhhh that makes sense. I enjoy it as it is, but it does still seem like it’s a shadow of its former self 😅
@Chel shit, even my shadow couldn't afford the rent there now
@patience ugh, yeah. we’re in one of the uh... cheaper areas, and it’s still mind boggling, even for a tiny place that’s mostly a hallway
probably vacating the entire region next year entirely as a result tbh
@Chel when i left, the last couple of "cheaper" areas (which wasn't, like, Federal Way or Lynnwood) were basically Lake City and south of New Holly/Rainier Valley
but that was more than a decade ago
@Chel also:
having to vacate the entire area henceforth due to astronomical housing costs probably speaks to being stuck with someone like pro-cop Durkan being mayor and not urban planner Moon
@Chel i miss capitol hill, especially the capitol hill i lived in back when amazon was still in that creepy VA hospital building on Beacon Hill and not the thing it is now
