How fast should I drive on the roads here?

EDIT: Thanks for all the replies so fast guys! This has been a genuinely fun discussion to read and I learned quite a bit.

Sounds like an obvious question; the speed limit is how fast you should drive... right?

But ever since moving here 3 months ago from Montana, I have been eternally confused by how people use public roadways here. It does not matter the day of the week, or time of day. Half of the people I see on the road are going anywhere from 10-20 over, and the other half are going 5-15 under the respective speed limits.

This applies for both the highway and city streets from what I can tell. I'll have people blow past me in a 30 going 45-55 and people going 20 in the same 30. Not to mention the people driving 45 on the interstate alongside people going 80 or over.

Can someone spell it out to me? Should I be going 35-40 to not impede traffic? Will I get pulled over for that? Simply following the flow of traffic does not work in this city, since there seems to be no regular flow.

Looking for emergency work in Spokane (Can start immediately!)

Hi everyone, my name is Zana and I'm a 22 y/o trans woman. I'm in a really difficult situation right now and I'm hoping someone here might know of a job opening or need someone to work right away.

Over the past few months I've been dealing with multiple serious health issues. I was diagnosed with stage 2 gastric adenocarcinoma and more recently ulcerative colitis. I had to miss work while getting medical treatment, and now I'm trying to get back on my feet and find employment as quickly as possible because my bills aren't going to wait.

I already have an interview with McDonald's on the 28th, but I need income sooner than that if possible.

I have previous experience as a car detailer, fast food crew member, and general laborer. I've also assisted with construction, including helping build automotive shops for my father, installing ethernet cabling, and setting up security camera systems. In addition, I'm very comfortable with computers and technology, have strong attention to detail, and learn new systems quickly. I previously held a job at the hospital in Ennis, Montana while I was in highschool doing IT work and worked doing remote IT help desk while I lived in Arizona.

I'm a quick learner, dependable when given the opportunity, and I'm willing to work hard. I'm open to temporary work, part time, full time, day labor, office work, warehouse work, retail, or pretty much anything that can help me get through this.

Unfortunately, DoorDash isn't an option. My account was somehow compromised, and despite multiple attempts to work with support, I haven't been able to recover it or create a new account.

If anyone knows of a place that's hiring immediately or needs someone to help out, I'd really appreciate any leads. Even advice on employers that tend to hire quickly around Spokane would mean a lot.

Thank you for taking the time to read this 🖤

How long has the line been for Galleria Tour before doors open?

My brother and I are going to the Phoenix show at The Crescent Ballroom and are curious about how early we need to show up before doors open to try and get to the barricade. I've never been to one of her shows before so I'm not sure how long the line would be and wanted to ask to know when we should get there. Thanks<3

Hi everyone! My name is Zana and I'm a 22 y/o trans girl with an IT degree just looking for some friends that would want to start a small close knit Beta 1.7.3 server or something.

None of my current friends play old versions of the game, or really Minecraft at all anymore. I'm facing a difficult time in my life right now battling stomach cancer and I find myself with a lot of time where I just want to relax with some friends, but I end up scrolling Twitter instead.

I unfortunately can't host a server myself since I am in the middle of moving, but I have a laptop I take with me to participate where I can call and hop on for portions of my day during downtime.

My discord is @zana365 if you are interested in getting to know me or just looking for others to play this wonderful version with :)

In mid-February, I received the life-changing diagnosis of stage 2 gastric adenocarcinoma. The doctors found a 2cm malignant mass in my lower stomach that has already started to extend into my large intestine. Since then, my world has been turned upside down as I try to navigate the challenges of treatment and the uncertainty that comes with a cancer diagnosis.

On top of the medical battle, I was denied disability by the government, and my Medicaid health insurance was cancelled without any explanation. I only discovered my coverage was gone when I showed up for a GI appointment at the Cottonwood Clinic. This has left me without the support I desperately need to cover my medical bills and basic living expenses. To make matters even more difficult, my roommates are currently trying to illegally evict me, adding housing insecurity to an already overwhelming situation.

I'm reaching out because I truly need help. I'm unable to work right now and receive very little assistance from family. Any support—no matter how small—would make a huge difference in helping me cover medical costs, keep a roof over my head, and focus on healing. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story and for any help you can offer.
