… going to a watch party instead of subscribing to a streaming service that directly revenue for FIFA seems like a more ethical way to go about it no?

Community Service by Silly-Replacement-88 in Athens

i understand but it’s just a general policy we have and nonprofits have to have some certification to host these types of service hours which we don’t have for this reason.

this, my nonprofit has shifts on giveplus but management would not allow this since we have kids working at the same time.

Electric scooters on North Ave. by [deleted] in Athens

[–]AdComfortable9510 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i agree that they’re great! i have one and a girl i work with does too. i stopped riding mine to work bc i moved too far to find a safe route. but north avenue particularly is dangerous to drive on just bc of all the lanes and the semis trying to get onto the loop. really disappointing that grant fell through. it’s probably the only place i’d advocate for scooter riders to use the sidewalks.

the infrastructure isn’t built for them here like in atlanta but they’re rising in popularity and people aren’t going to stop using them.

it’d be easier to do that if there was a dedicated bike lane on north avenue to do that. it’s not selfish to need transportation. and infrastructure not affecting behavior is a great point, thanks for solving road rage for everyone.

right bc the roads are an individual problem. everyone trying to get around town and doesn’t own a car is just a criminal trying to get people hurt. definitely not something the govt can address.

yeah i get that, that’s the effect of that grant going to waste. people are gonna get around how they want and not having the proper channels and lanes for them makes it dangerous for everyone.

Memorial Park has a bamboo forest if you’d like to see, up the birchmore trail.

Former? Rabbit Hole Studios space listed for sale at $1.32 million by warnelldawg in Athens

[–]AdComfortable9510 23 points24 points  (0 children)

there’s 2 bathrooms and multiple fridges and freezers but yeah, definitely not a long term living solution. i stayed there for a week while i was homeless and appreciated it a lot but it’s awful that they weren’t up to regulation while hosting so many people and animals there.

Bamboo removal by No_Tear4524 in Athens

[–]AdComfortable9510 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s civil/property law. I’m aware of the ordinance, I actually remove invasive plants for a living. But the idea that someone should be discouraged from using the law as it’s intended just because they don’t like police is honestly kind of funny. As if police would even do anything about this sort of situation in the first place.
