if you've been following the whole Denny Blaine saga here in seattle, you've probably seen the texts where our mayor agrees with his millionaire friend that the nude bathers at the historic gay beach are "disgusting". here's the Stranger's most recent coverage of this outrageous bullshit:
great news though! the Friends of Denny Blaine are running a funding campaign for things like a bike rack and, in the long term, full bathroom facilities, and if you donate $25 they will send a postcard to the mayor to remind him that "This member of a disgusting subgroup votes."
there's a lot of causes that need attention in Seattle due to our feckless, dysfunctional city government, but this is one way to send a message about whether this city exists to serve all of the people or just the bourgeoisie.
(tried to post this yesterday but my internet briefly died just long enough for cohost to crash destroying the post, which I can only assume was Stuart Sloan trying to cut the cable to prevent me posting this, getting cartoonishly zapped so his whole skeleton flashes in the process)
