This one's titled simply "The Look." Seattlest's Flickr pool has no shortage of festive photos and snowbound scenery. But let's take a moment to consider the reason for the season: Because if we weren't so busy celebrating we'd be too grouchy to live with. Check out Seattleye's large, suitable for framing version here. Our posting will be light the next few days. Have a safe and happy holidays everyone. more ›

People like to flaunt their provincial superiority and yammer on about bad Seattle drivers especially in weather like this. (We're looking at you, fellow transplants and ex-pats.) Yeah, whatever. Screw you jerks. more ›

Happy second day of summer! It's the Solstice-celebrating sexy men of Batman and Robin the Joker, from yesterday's Fremont Fair. More shots from the fair and its corresponding parade in our Seattlest Flickr pool. more ›

Remember when The Crocodile Cafe closed unexpectedly in December? Remember how up in arms everyone got, yelling about how likely it was that yet more new condos would be the result? more ›

We spend a lot of time at the Seattlest newsroom talking about the problems bicycle riders in this city have and how the city should make it easier for us since we reduce congestion and emissions at the same time. Now we realize we’ve been ignoring the good our our two-wheeled motorized brethren (and sistern) on scooters. more ›

We here at Seattlest like to provide our readers with valuable advice when we think it’s necessary. Two blog posts we’ve seen today make us think it’s important to advise that you stay the hell away from Denver. more ›

First it was severed feet washing ashore, now it is empty bottles of rat poison. The bottles, which have thus far been empty, have been washing up on Washington shores since last fall. That spring trip to the coast is sounding less appealing every day. more ›

Maybe it's the recession like it was in the early 90s, but as a city, we're recycling more than ever before. more ›

This post is brought to you by, we believe, Seattlest's lone Hillary supporter or, as we like to refer to ourself, Hillpporter. more ›

Washington lumber giant Weyerhaeuser and California's Chevron Oil and Gas Company have announced a partnership to develop a new bio-fuel. The planned fuel would be created out of wood fiber--something we imagine Weyerhaeuser has plenty of. more ›

We're not sure if Metro planned to give us an extra day of the old fares by scheduling the new ones to take affect tomorrow (the day after Leap Day), but we sure do appreciate it. more ›

Sixty University of Washington professors have signed an open letter discussing the trend of unprepared students.

When we used to work at the Starbucks in the Bank of America building (nee: Columbia Center), one of our duties was to bring up boxes of cups, napkins and other sundries from the storeroom located in the garage on level E, five stories below ground. more ›

Long spoken of and rarely acted upon, the renovation and remodeling of The Seattle Center was again on the docket for Monday's City Council meeting. Center officials presented a number of new design ideas for the redevelopment of the Center. Central to these are the demolishing of Memorial Stadium and The Fun Forest. Proposed uses for the space include a new outdoor amphitheatre to replace Memorial Stadium, a brand new Center House, and plans to turn the asphalt of the Fun Forest into green space. more ›

Real Change is setting up camp at City Hall, to protest the city's handling of homelessness and new policies regarding homeless encampments. The planned protest is scheduled for March 13th, with Real Change encouraging supporters to "bring a tent and a friend" down to City Hall. more ›

No, Seattlest is not just a fan of alliteration and 80's slang, as the headline might suggest. Burying the beef, is the current plan of the Seattle Public School District to rid itself of 230 cases of possibly contaminated beef. The beef, provided to school districts through a USDA lunch program, came from a California slaughterhouse in the center of the largest beef recall in USDA history. more ›

Popular Science released its list of the 50 Greenest cities in the U.S. recently. Of course, liberal, green Seattle was on it. We came in eighth. It surprised no one at Seattlest HQ, however, that our neighbor to the South, namely Portland, came in first since some of us believe that Portland is better and we all love PDX regardless. more ›

A hundred or so people met at Cal Anderson Park on Capitol Hill last night, to serenade the full lunar eclipse with Bonnie Tyler's '80s classic, "Total Eclipse of the Heart." The plan was to sing the song for the entire 51 minutes of the lunar eclipse. Sadly, Seattlest could not take the song or the cold long enough to see if they succeeded. more ›
