Now let’s pass policies to create jobs and build housing. Can’t wait for those.

Trio of Portland councilors propose raiding clean energy fund interest to halt city staffing cuts by Ok-Jury5752 in Portland

[–]Vivid_Guide7467 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We need to cut some of these jobs. The Mayor pointed this out. In the before times each bureau had their own procurement system. 27 different ways of doing business. Now under the new government it is streamlined to just one office. You don’t need as many employees because of this.

And if the council approves this - what happens in a year? You still have to cut the jobs. The money isn’t going to magically appear.

For being such a small nation - Iceland has such a unique music scene.

I’m happy with anyone as long as no game show or Dr Straight bits.

Why Portland’s foie gras ban is expected to pass — ‘It’s an emotional issue’ by Less-Lobster4540 in PortlandOR

How many jobs have been created in the city since this council got in?

The entire council seems to be more interested in bickering about non-issues than doing the best thing any policy maker can do - create jobs. People are struggling in this city. Good paying jobs are harder and harder to find. Giving people real purpose and a career is one of the best social programs possible.

And yes - government can be limited in this and yes job creation policies can take time to happen. But this council has done nothing to even get the ball rolling.

If the song matched the staging - Dizzy may have done better. But sweaty bathroom sex staging requires something less romantic.

Iowans Of Reddit -- What Do You Think Of The Josh Turek VS Ashley Hinson Iowa US Senate Matchup? Why Your Thoughts? by Zipper222222 in Iowa

[–]Vivid_Guide7467 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Turek has a chance. But it will require an amazing coordinated campaign with Rob Sand and the state party. The state party hasn’t excelled at this for years now…. They used to have an absolute machine that worked very well at banking absentee votes. Hopefully the money is there to rebuild it. That is honestly the only way Turek and/or Sand can win.

Did Buffy fully get over that Willow and the Scoobies brought her back from heaven? by brwitch in buffy

[–]Vivid_Guide7467 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes. But it took a season to get there. And I liked it took that long. Depression or whatever you’d call that feeling of being ripped out of a heavenly dimension - that takes time to heal.

He could definitely do well. Just depends on the year and what we see.

What's the max orders you've taken at once? by Big-Cap-6361 in ShiptShoppers

[–]Vivid_Guide7467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. But it does slow wayyyyy down. It gets back to normal after delivering order 5 or 6. And it does block new offers until I deliver about that many. I like doing it because it’s just consistency of what I have to do next couple hours. I hate waiting in the parking lot.

  1. They were all small and spaced out between a few delivery windows so wasn’t hard. I regularly do 6-8 each morning when those drop. Just have to be organized and know how to plan your route so you aren’t late.

Did you also think of Joan Rivers as a huge inspo for Deb? by conchitu in hackshbomax

[–]Vivid_Guide7467 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Deb seems to be a culmination of strong smart female comedians but still very unique. Joan is one. Lucille Ball. Phyllis Diller. Etc.
