“Copenhagen is roughly Seattle’s size, by population. Malmö is about as big as Bellevue, Kirkland, and Redmond combined. The bridge carries about 50,000 train riders a day, the same number Sound Transit expects on the 2 Line, which begins service across Lake Washington on Saturday, March 28.

“Economic growth like this is one of the primary motivations for building light rail across Lake Washington.

“Fixed rail systems are proven to be economic development generators,” said King County Councilmember Claudia Balducci. “And the tech companies were some of the loudest advocates for us to build this because they know that you attract talent and you attract jobs when you have a transportation system that people enjoy riding.””

Probably not. Its cold here. Don't come. It's basically night the entire day for 6 months of the year.

Copenhagen or Seattle? Seems like it could be true for either...

[–] TaTTe@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Probably Copenhagen, since it's significantly further north. It's around the same latitude as southern Alaska.

Are the actors in "sleepless in Seattle" still alive?

OK looks like they are. Yeah, moving along, its a big lie. Don't come here. Specially in spring. Spring here is like big boobs. You see it and you're fascinated by it. But then you move here and you're like George Carling's dog...where the fuck's the food??? What happened to the sexy boobs? Why is everything around us and every building both wet and green? That (anything with a shape) is green and it's not even a tree! And why is it still raining? No its sunny, no raining. Actually I came here with my dog but the wind took him.. Ah he's wet and green now. Oh its raining again.... 1 years later.....ahhhh! Spring is here! The Cherry blossoms! Awesome! This is so coo...oh raining again. Oh.

Yeah, don't move here.
