SPU has a message for all the ladies out there

Seattle apparently has a garbage problem, but it’s not the thing about the $1 composting charge that got Joni Balter’s knickers in a bunch on KUOW last week. No, it’s…a more personal thing.

A feminine thing.

We’ll give you one clue:

In a press release today, SPU implored that people stop flushing “anything but toilet paper or human waste.”

Oh, sure, they listed all kinds of other nefarious items, like ”paper towels, facial tissue, cotton swabs, personal and baby wipes, hair, dental floss… condoms**, and cat litter,” but let’s be honest: Any lady or female-identified person who’s ever been in a women’s public bathroom literally ever has seen the sign that flush-shames us all for flushing our used ‘pons.

So, just to recap:

Turds = Ok!

TP = Ok!

Tampons = FUCK NO.

**Wait is flushing condoms a big issue? Y’all are gross.
