Hopefully, no one is advocating for doing nothing and leaving it in place. To some degree I think tearing it down was a start, but not a well thought out solution. I personally think that ignoring these sort of encampments only allow the problem to get worse. I think they definitely need to be broken up, but simultaneously services need to be put in place to address these people’s issues. Drug addiction, poverty, homelessness from being kicked out of other protective services. The list could go on forever, but these are huge and difficult problems that we need to address.

I am so glad that I can block people on this platform.

I was out with friends and my neighbor called to tell me to get on my roof. Too much light pollution where I was 😭

I would like to know the difference in survival rates of fires with one staircase in these situations. It’s easy to change codes based on political factors, but I’d rather do them based on statistical ones.

I love it when people are empathetic and helpful. They made your day and hopefully you passed it on.

Yes, this is the future of education! You get on the subway and start taking your continuing education class for the next 20 minutes.

Feel free to post venting posts! As the mod, that somehow feels like inappropriate behavior for me.

Thank you for the analysis! I was afraid that this had no teeth and I think that fear may have been correct.

They would have to put it in a dirty basement or I just won’t accept it as the rat.

They put in some work and they deserve some Internet points!

These shows where you have to fall in love seem like a dystopian nightmare to me, but I guess if people are entertained…

Haven’t we already been granted a police state? In all seriousness hopefully these cameras will help.

I think the lottery is a tax on the poor and the uneducated. It should be banned along with other forms of gambling which just pray on human weakness.

More expensive and funnier, so I say better?

I once went to one of the shows when it was in Bow Market. It was such a trip, because the majority of the audience was comedians waiting to take a turn on stage. It definitely had the feel of people testing out their craft mixed with the feel of karaoke.

If the medical system was run by people who actually cared about treating people over profit then the answer to that question would be obvious. Too bad it isn’t.

I need to see the actual wording of the ballot questions. Sometimes they make it seem like a yes when it’s actually a no. All of them sound good except I know nothing about number one.

Just a reminder, rapid onset gender dysphoria is a fiction invented by anti trans activists. In short, there is absolutely no evidence this is happening, all of the supposed study data comes from testimony of specifically anti-trans parents, and all of the medical treatments have been extremely conservative and hard to get by kids under the age of 18.

Linux. It was a Windows only problem. The real question is why are any corporations still using Windows at this day and age. I thought the only reason to stay on Windows was for gaming.

I definitely only go the speed limit /s
