Imagine being too racist for the College Republicans. Imagine being such a shitty organization that they have to explain, “I am NOT with those jerkoffs!” Oh, don’t get it wrong, they’re all assholes. But apparently the National College Republicans have a different threshold, or at least don’t want to have to explain the UW chapter anymore.

I don’t understand how a campaign can be so flush with cash, and mess up the basic requirements (item 2). Seriously, the Orion campaign should be able to get its ducks in a row.

It’s soup season. The best time of the year. I made myself a nice lentil soup yesterday. My trick is to throw a couple cinnamon sticks in with your other ingredients.

A friend and I were talking about the most important thing, the nonsense tax votes we get to do. You see, there was an initiative once. And now every year people are confused about why we’re voting on this bullshit.

I vote for all of them. The Legislature has already thought about it. The governor has signed it. It’s fine.

There’s a lot of corporate money going to the Seattle City Council races. I get it. Amazon doesn’t want to pay taxes. But they are part of the community. They should pay their share for the problems that their growth in the city has caused.

Did you watch the Democratic debate? Do you have a sense of how Tom Steyer’s Presidency would be?

What I’m saying is we should have only my preferred candidates. And better questions than “what jerks are you friends with?”
