Friday May 3rd Open Thread.

I was at the bus stop not super late, but post rush hour. There were a handful of people at the stop. When I saw my bus coming, I walked over and waited first in line. As I stated to board, the driver gave me the wait signal, as someone else was taking a minute to exit.

And then as I was waiting, someone goes around me trying to board. Like I just decided to stop! Then when he realized there was someone getting off the bus, he stayed in the head of the line. Seriously, what?

CPB in Spokane acting scuzzy has caught up with them. I hope that Mr. Elshieky gets all of the money and that there are real reforms. Also, even if the fuckery were justified (it’s not) the bus ride from Spokane to Portland isn’t exactly the hot route for international smugglers.

Matt Shea is such a garbage person. At a certain point, there have to be the barest of consequences for all of the fuckery. I would hope that there is enough decency in the Republican Party to show him some serious consequences. But the truth is that the rot is the party. They have become the party that redefined the Second Amendment and elevated Donald Trump. Of course they don’t care about genocide manifestos or targeting professors and protesters.

Important Thunderpussy news!

Now that I have your attention, it’s trademark news. It seems like a different category than FUCT to me, but I am no trademark staffer or attorney.

And kudos to KUOW for actually saying Thunderpussy on my morning radio.

Can’t Bring Yourself to Type the Word “Ass”?

Eager to share our brilliant political commentary and blunt media criticism, but too genteel to link to horsesass.org? Well, good news, ladies: we also answer to HASeattle.com, because, you know, whatever. You're welcome!
