I used to live on the waterfront near the Bremerton-Seattle Ferry, where the sailors would meet up with the underaged girls at the laundromat opposite the YMCA. Nothing about that news article surprised me. ---

Yeah. There was a MacDonald’s right outside the gate, then the laundromat. That was the nastiest Mickey D in the tri-state area, bar none. ---

Possibly the classiest McDonald’s is in Tacoma. There’s one there with a Dale Chihuly sculpture, or at least there used to be. ---

> [@Czarcasm](#): > > That was the nastiest Mickey D in the tri-state area, bar none. My then-girlfriend and I were in a fast food place in Hollywood one day. I don’t think it was a McDonald’s. It may have been an In-N-Out, or else a Wendy’s. [Edit: I think it was a Wendy’s.] It was about lunchtime. A woman who was obviously making her living on the streets came in, wearing a short dress. She was not wearing underwear. Ask me how I know. I haven’t been down to Tacoma or Bremerton. But one of the things I liked about Hollywood was how sleazy it is. I appreciate sleaze. ---

I dunno. Hollywood Blvd. and Sunset Blvd. had the _façade_ of tourism; the sleaze wasn’t especially blatant. Just an underlying sleaze that tourists tended to overlook. I like subtle sleaze. like some ho in a Wendy’s in a tourist area without her knickers. ---

Chad Loder reports that he’s found a Pornhub account linked to one of the boys in Elon Musk’s Junior Nazi Action Squad, which is inherently hilarious, because 1. What kind of tech-minded person doesn’t scrub their ENTIRE online presence before making a public figure of themselves 2. Who the hell actually creates an account on a free porn website?

_Almost_ on-point with @JRDelirious just above … I’ve told this story before, but one of my Bros was a criminal justice major. Went on to be a pilot, not a cop; his major was chosen to be easy, not to be useful. He did a summer internship with the county prosecutor’s office covering the middle-sized city that held the university. After his stint there I asked him what he learned. With a rueful sigh he said: “Statistically speaking, incest is normal human behavior.” Traditional small town values FTW!!! ---

I’d sooner expect George Santos to claim to be her father. She does look rather indigenous. What was the name of that woman who was white, claimed to be black, and worked in some government or university capacity where her bogus ethnicity claims eventually cost her her job and her reputation. Some time in the last 4-6 years. It was an odd name. Anyhow, this fresh case sounds about the same in both stupidity and in outcome. ---
