Slog AM: Howard Schultz Talks Shit About Seattle, Zorhran Mamdani Solves NYC’s Budget Deficit, Trump Says He Doesn’t Think About Ordinary Americans’ Financial Situation
The idea to ban cars from Capitol Hill’s E. Barbara Bailey street, which encounters constant foot traffic from Cal Anderson Park, Capitol Hill Station, and the Capitol Hill Station Plaza, is a no-brainer. Cars should not be there. And an organization, Central Seattle Streets for All, is now pressing for the formal pedestrianization of the […] The post Slog AM: Howard Schultz Talks Shit About Seattle, Zorhran Mamdani Solves NYC’s Budget Deficit, Trump Says He Doesn’t Think About Ordinary Americans’ Financial Situation appeared first on The Stranger.

Finding care that feels like family
Growing up in a multigenerational household in Hong Kong, I watched my mother and aunt rearrange our three-bedroom apartment around my grandparents as they aged. Handrails went into the shower. Adjustable beds replaced the old ones. Eight of us shared that space—crowded, complicated, and never once in question. In Chinese, we have a word for […] The post Finding care that feels like family appeared first on International Examiner.
