Actually, I hate Seattle's public transport now

 This will be quick because there's no point in dwelling over negative emotions too much.

The other day, Saturday I think, I took the E bus line through Aurora ave to Dollar Tree because it had been a while. First, the bus came in twenty minutes late, which is really bad because those buses are supposed to run every ten minutes. Second, because they completely don't care about fare evasion or enforcement, there were a tonne of homeless people whose existence by itself is of course not objectionable. but the fact that they were fucking taking their pants and showing their asses inside the bus, sitting bareassed on the seats, smoking, trashing and being really scary in the buses really annoyed me, pissed me. I don't see how any person who doesn't absolutely haave to take the bus will use Seattle buses, I believe they're not safe for women, or even men. The fare enforcement must restart, and it must be strict, otherwise the people who fund the transit system will stop using it, caring for it, and it'll be defunded pretty quick. If you want to invest in the infrastructure long term, make it usable by the people who're paying for it, and the folks around here are not doing that.

Then there were those goddamn Link stations, the train lines. Littered with trash, tent cities, playgrounds for homeless people, stinky, and just plain sad. This is not what one of the cutting edge, smartest cities in the country should be like. This is shameful, a travesty, a big loss of public confidence from the public. What the people in government are doing, who knows. And Seattle doesn't even have the privilege of being an old system that is just systematically difficult to take care of. No, it's one of world's newest public metro system, and it's already falling apart. Again, shameful, shameful, awful and pathetic that the people who should be taking care of this don't give an eff.
