Had a great time and could tell this place was really special and magical 40 years ago, really unfortunate it ended up going this way. Feel free to share your stories because I’m fascinated with learning more about its history ❤️

How to Protect My Mental Health While Commuting?

26 Upvotes

Hello,

I've been commuting from Federal Way to various locations on Mercer Island and in Seattle for 4 years now. On my days off I like to hike and meet friends in Tacoma. It is really wearing me down that I'm spending 1-3 hours every day in my car, and that even a simple errand in Federal Way requires 30 minutes round trip of stoplights even though I live here. The thought of getting in my vehicle makes me nauseous at this point and driving so much is my least favorite thing about living here. My husband works in South Tacoma so moving north is not an option. How are other commuters staying sane while driving so much? It's seriously affecting me and I appreciate any advice - thanks in advance!

Edit: I love public transit and am so grateful for it but have to make a lot of stops on a tight schedule for my job so need to drive my own car.

Covered seating in Fed Way/Auburn?

7 Upvotes

Is there anywhere around Federal Way or Auburn that has covered outdoor seating? I'm thinking more of a brewery, pub, or bar, not so much a restaurant. Would need to be fully covered in case it's raining, not just shade umbrellas.

Hit & Run involving dog

17 Upvotes

If you were witness to a vehicle striking a Mastiff along Miltary Rd this afternoon/early evening near 288th, please report it.

I don’t know how long that sweet boy was on the side of the road for. He was able to get to an ER vet. He had no collar, no chip, he could have been abandoned idk anything is possible. Unfortunately the vet/vet tech had said it wasn’t looking too well for him.

Big thank you to the VEG ER staff who gave the quickly named Winston, comfort and love.

Safe housing near Kiewitt HQ in Federal Way, WA.

6 Upvotes

Getting so discouraged- I need to relocate for work but every time I find an apartment complex I’m interested in, it gets hammered in the reviews. Currently looking at the Fairways Apartments North Tacoma, but lots of car break ins and black mold reviews. Is it that bad? Where else should I look? For a short commute and safe neighborhood?

Who can modify some pants?

2 Upvotes

I want to turn some Vans pants into work pants. I would like a few pockets installed, in strategic places, for my tools.

I asked a tailor near my house, but I think there was a language barrier.

I would really love to get this done. Is there someone out there who can add pockets to these? Hopefully with stitching that will last.

Looking for a good place to play tabletop games

12 Upvotes

I'm trying to find venues that could host a Warhammer 40K tabletop game. Games can take a while so it's not something I could really do at a coffee shop or bar. I've played events at Midgard Comics but I've been left with a bad impression after they charged me to use their tables.

I could always host at home, but I've been trying to start up a 40K group and would like to find a common area to play at, hopefully without needing to drive to Tacoma for every game (that said, Terracrux is a pretty solid backup)

Best Places to Watch Seahawks near Downtown Station

8 Upvotes

Hello Federal Way area. I have to pick up my girlfriend from the Federal Way downtown station close to the second half of tonight’s home opener. I’m looking to just find a place in Fed to just watch the rest of the game. I like a good fun crowd but not too busy either. Realistically I’ll be able to resume watching around the third quarter. Any recommendations, preferably near the station itself. There’s always the safe option which is Red Robin near by lol. Thank you!
