Fuck Yeah Seattle

Seattle -- Queen City, Emerald City -- is a beautiful city on the water in Washington state. Despite its rich history it's probably best known for its love for music, its obsession with creating the perfect cup of coffee, and its "endless" rain. Let's celebrate the unique culture and beauty of the Seattle area, Fuck Yeah! style.

Seed capsule (by severinus)
Put in place by the Ravenna Creek Alliance  these seed capsules are designed to shatter when disrupted and distribute the native species plant seeds to the Ravenna Creek area. As the Flickr member who took this photograph said, “We can’t have our post-apocalyptic zombie farmers cultivating non-native species, can we?”

Queue Hijinks

Howdy all, moderator note here. I have no idea what’s up with the queue — no posts over the weekend, as far as I can tell, but two today — and can only surmise that we’re part of the current round of “Tumblr’s Queue Sucks”. Hopefully the suckfulness will move on soon and we’ll be back to one fond memory or image every morning.
