I hate sippy cup lids for iced coffee SO MUCH

What's going on with Seattle Children's Hospital and their neighbors in Laurelhurst? And how long has this been going on? That's what we're talking about on today's episode.

May the 4th be with you 🌌

Rather than scolding anyone for not moving out of the community they love to make room for "buyers"...what if we built more housing in Ballard?
