E comunque quando suono i #vinili di Robert Hood o di #UR i regaz che passano - 12 / 18 anni - davanti alla vetrina alzano gli occhi dal cellulare, si fomentano e sfoggiano sorrisoni... ed è subito #street #parade #maranza.

This, much earlier this morning:

"This Message is from Washington State Ferries.

We've been working together with regional transit agencies to support hundreds of thousands, possibly a million people, expected to converge in downtown #Seattle for the #Seahawks #Parade Wednesday.

If you are traveling on ferries, Wednesday, Feb. 11:

Before you go, please make a plan:

Travel early and review your transit options.

Avoid driving, if possible.

Buy passenger tickets online in advance of your trip.

Expect significant wait times at our terminals, with potentially thousands of people waiting for the next sailing, especially at Colman Dock.

Vessels will be loaded to their maximum capacity, which is anywhere from 1,500 to 1,800 people per sailing, depending on the type of vessel. You may have to wait multiple sailings before boarding."

Yeah

Getting out of Colman Dock in downtown Seattle afterwards for Bainbridge Island or Bremerton is going to be nutso

Alert Seattle: There are regionwide travel impacts due to the Seahawks victory parade. Downtown Seattle streets will be closed throughout the day until cleanup is complete. People are encouraged to take transit, walk, or bike if possible. Consider staying downtown and waiting until the crowds thin to return home. Please plan accordingly, expect delays, and stay safe!

I do unironically appreciate the map that's clearly drawn with a mouse in MS Paint. I'm on the train 4 hours before the parade and it's already filling up. spdblotter.seattle.gov/2026/02

Apparently the last Seahawks parade took down cell/Internet in Seattle, lol. (per their After Action Review, AAR). Apparently having amateur radio helped, although it sounds like their 800Mhz system stayed up. #Seahawks #parade #hamradio

2212 Overload of the Downtown Cellular Network and City’s Internet
As crowds converged on downtown in the hours before the parade, the EOC received reports that some
responders and citizens were unable to get a cell signal. It was quickly determined through inquiries that
the congestion only covered the downtown core and didn’t extend to other areas of the City (First Hill
neighborhood for example).
Just after 10:30 a.m., reports were at received into the Department of Information Technology’s Network
Operating Center (NOC) from SPD that there was a significant drop in download network speed on the
City’s backbone. The Department of Information Technology (DoIT) immediately began investigating.
After speaking with the City’s largest internet provider they learned that the slowness was due to high
utilization across the entire region. There was nothing more that City IT could do to address the problem
since the issue had to do with high demand outside of the City network.
The Joint Information Center (JIC) quickly developed messaging strategies to inform the public of the
situation and ask citizens to reduce their use of cell phones for voice and data communications,
specifically the uploading of videos to the internet. These messages were shared with all City partners
who disseminated the information using a variety of means including traffic3 Actions Demonstrating Success
The event highlighted a number of successful actions. Among them were:

«Over a four day period, the City, led by the Seattle Police Department and Special Events Office,
was able to successfully coordinate plans for, and conduct, two large events: the Super Bowl day
deployment and response and the victory celebration parade.

«Several participants stated that leveraging the existing Torchlight parade plan was instrumental to
the success of the Victory Parade.

«Amateur radio operators working with Seafair highlighted the capability of amateur radio to
directly support field operations during special events.

* Despite the overload of the cell phone system, the City’s internal phone system and public safety
radio system maintained coverage and were operational throughout the event. During the Parade
event, (B00MHz) system capacity utilization varied between 13% to 19%. At the same time,
there were over 2,500 active radios operating on over 160 talkgroups within the system.

The Department of Finance and Administrative Services stepped up the day before the parade to
offer a viewing area for spectators with access and functional needs in front of City Hall.

I chose to shoot the Oshun parade on my #charmera camera last night. The linked blog post has the whole set, which kind of look like a fever dream to me. Here are four of them, though. www.flowstateneworleans.com/blog/bp/char... #photography #nolasky #mardigras #neworleans #parade #fotografia

On the night of Setsubun (February 3rd), experience the Hyottoko Odori—a traditional comical masked dance from Miyazaki Prefecture—at Manzoku Inari Shrine in Kyoto.

The performance at the shrine usually features the dancers' signature humorous movements and hip-swaying to the rhythm of flutes & drums. Following the shrine rituals, the troupe is known to bring their lively energy to the nearby streets of the Gion Shirakawa district, starting near Tatsumi Shrine.

I'm at a celebration of #MLK at the University of Houston.

One of the panelists (sorry, I had to sit in the back, so I don't know who) talked about #risk.

This is in relation to the #redemption that comes from #suffering.

There is #truth in this. I'm old. But the three times I felt something almost #holy was when I risked.

The first time. . .

After my sister changed her major to Women's Studies, she volunteered to be #security at the local #Pride #Parade. I did the training with her. Basically, we were part of a wall of bodies between the parade and the crowd. At one point, there was.a woman yelling and screaming about the Bible, and as I stood in front of her, I didn't even hear her. I felt this deep abiding #calm. I'm not a #believer, but if I were, I would describe it as some kind of divine Presence.

The second time. . .

A coworker was going to the drugstore down the street to get baseball cards, and while I walked down with him, I mentioned that I was treated better at work than at home. He asked me, "What are you going to do about it?" The same calm came to me as I realized I could leave. It was so powerful I went back to work and told my boss that I was feeling weird and I thought I needed to go home. Which I did. I moved in with my sister until I found an apartment.

The third time. . .

I had been working for about thre months when the staffing agency that all of the staff was contracted through wac bought by a bigger agency that mostly staffed the #defense #industry. Instead of #HR, they sent #attorneys. They pulled some shenanigans, but my coworkers in California didn't have to sign #nonCompete #agreements. So they allowed the rest of us to opt out. They even allowed us to jump to a different staffing agency that had profit-sharing. Except the #BigTech we worked for was slow-walkimg the paperwork for the four who were trying to do it. I very carefully set up my remaining PTO and was in another state when my final dey rolled around. Unlike the other four, my role was support. They could survive without me until the paperwork was ready. And, when my boss called and asked if I was not going to work, I felt that calm when I said that I wasn't going to work if I wasn't going to be paid.

In two weeks, all of our paperwork went through, so we all had the same hire date.
