They did say it with an s, as in plural, so they want you do it one ball at a time. I’m confident in this because that’s why the soap dispenser is so low.

Do you think her wife would have survived that trip if she had? Do you realize that Minnesota is doing it right and that we should follow their lead instead of criticizing them?

Make sure someone takes video of when you “fight back.” I’d love to see how it all plays out.

How did this work out for Alex Pretti? He’s the perfect example of how this shit will/would play out. Stop telling people to commit suicide ffs.

- Comment on Alabama is forcing incarcerated people to work at hundreds of companies, including McDonald’s & Wendy’s. Unionizing is illegal. The state takes 40% of wages. 4 days ago:
Remember kids, if the republicans start complaining that someone is stealing their money, it means the state is.
Alabama ranks at surprising 10th in most money taken from the state at 61%
Note: No. 1 means most dependent. wallethub.com/edu/…/2700

I think I’ve seen it as Rey in old timey Latin, like early Renaissance.

Doesn’t Rey mean king in Latin?
- Comment on Japan cancels cherry blossom festival over complaints of tourists littering and ‘defecating’ in yards 5 days ago:
There are public bathrooms at the park. It was packed with tourists and their litter when I went in 2024 though.
Soooo, the festivals are probably put on by the city or area. If the bathrooms at the park were packed, then the city and area should provide more porta potties. It’s kind of simple. The cities probably wanted the tourism, but are now realizing that it might not be worth it? That I get. The pooping thing though, that I don’t get.

Wouldn’t a bunch of porta potties solve this?

This is almost exactly what it looks like when I have to pee and I’m dreaming. I can’t find a bathroom in this and then all of the bathrooms have shit piled up or the door won’t open. What does it meeeeaaaaan?

Yep, daddy issues and probably him being short is an issue:
His father Mike killed a woman in 1981, while driving drunk and causing a head-on collision. Bovino’s parents divorced shortly after this, when he was 14.[4]

- Comment on The consequences of not building enough housing 3 weeks ago:
The corporations are the ones making you feel guilty, especially if the infrastructure isn’t there. That’s how they tried it (and won) in Seattle. They’re all like, build, build, build, and then covid hit. The transit takes hours if the person can’t afford to live in the city (see my bullet points). There are a lot of grey areas and people like you. The system is broken and they’re blaming the home owners who don’t want to live in a fucked up area. The CEOs don’t care because they’re money hoarders and living in gated communities somewhere.
- Comment on The consequences of not building enough housing 3 weeks ago:
It’s true that it’s doubtful that this stuff will get implemented if we continue the way we are going. Most people don’t know about these issues and talking about it gets this info out there. The propaganda coming from the corporate landlords is heavy and strong. I’m surprised this isn’t getting trolled heavily tbh. Not sure why it isn’t.
Things to continue talking about and what I don’t think people realize, know, or understand how bad it is:
- Price fixing is a huge problem in rentals. They have website services that help the landlords do this.
- Corporate landlords hold empty homes and apartments vacant until they can get the prices they want rather than lower the price. This is why that trickle down housing shit doesn’t work.
- Corporations buy up all cheap housing so downturns in markets are only good for them too. See the first 2 bullet points.
- The push for more housing means that there are more luxury apartments, not homes for who need them. They’ll say that homes will be available when they get shitty over the years. See above bullet points and even if that were true, would take 30 years anyway.
Go after the corporate landlords and corporate airbnb shit first, then go after the nimbys. The nimbys are the distraction and pits the neighbors against the 15 minute city types instead of the corporations that are making fucking bank.
- Comment on The consequences of not building enough housing 3 weeks ago:
I meant under 10 units, you’re right. I fixed it. I’m down with a cold and I knew it wasn’t quite right, but my brain couldn’t fix it, lol.
- Comment on The consequences of not building enough housing 3 weeks ago:
Drastically increase the tax rate for more than 3 houses by any single person.
I would say that it should start building the tax after one house and go drastic like you said on the 3rd.
- Comment on The consequences of not building enough housing 3 weeks ago:
- Crack down on price fixing
- Don’t let corporations run AirBNBs or similar
- Don’t let corporations own any rental building over approximately 10 units.
- Don’t let rental buildings have more than a low percentage of empty units for turn around. They have to lower the rent then. If it goes to $200/month, then so be it.
There are so many things to try, but Trickle Down Housing never works.

Don’t forget that they were the front line during covid. Remember the city not knowing what to do with all of the dead? Also, there were a lot of covid deniers harassing them. They deserve to be treated like decent royalty.

- Comment on How do I feel comfortable/safe going outside by myself after being so used to have parent(s) be with me outside most of my life? 4 weeks ago:
Just walk there and go back home. You’re going to have to embrace the “feels too weird” part. Feeling weird is part of life.
There are like shopping malls within 20 minutes walking distance, but I don’t wanna like just walk around if I’m not buying anything… feels too weird.
