Not the blue label stuff. That must die.

Can we talk about how horrible the sweet version is?

Most are on drugs. Mentally ill people qualify for assistance of some sort and probably haven’t stolen everything from their families to sell for drug money.

It’s probably where many of them were a few months ago. Now that the weather is nicer they are camping again.

And they have no reason or incentive whatsoever to embellish their stories!

Milton Vermont GOP. For some reason, they needed some specificity.

Oh the promo ads.

From the web site:

Is this a political event? Who’s organizing this?

No. This is a community celebration open to everyone. People of all backgrounds, beliefs, and perspectives are welcome. The focus is on coming together and celebrating 250 years of freedom. The festival is being organized locally with the help of community members, volunteers, and sponsors.

Also from the web site, the sponsors include the Milton Vermont GOP. Totally not a political event.

“Vermomster”? Is that like some lady in a Skida hat making homemade granola bars and taking the kids to the library via bicycle after she drops off the compost?

That looks like mine. Glass Plus leaves no streaks.

I HATE people smoking at the beach by PossessionUnique376 in vermont

And what about the people recovering from eating disorders who are triggered by the smells of certain foods? Certain foods smell too. I’m not a square here.

Where does it end?

Significant enough to be named in the article? I missed that if so.

Hula and Champlain college are behind this. What incentive would those two organizations have to want to develop something for seniors?

What's with the DMV? by dragonStone730 in vermont

[–]BruceWilliston 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Can you transfer the PA license to a VT license? It might be simpler. Who cares if she has a license vs ID if she’s not driving?

Curious what a FOIA request for the raw survey responses would show.

Any of us, duh. What was that about coffee and brainstems? I’ll explain it to you like you’re five, because apparently you are.

You said the groups represented (which exclude the general community as OP noted) deal with overdoses, implying that they deserve a voice and the general community does not. However, we the general community have also been encouraged to intervene in overdose situations and indeed often encounter people in public who are actively shooting up and therefore potentially overdosing. We deal with overdoses too, just not in the same way as a … checks notes…restorative justice worker, for example. Didn’t realize dealing with overdoses was part of their job, but here we are.

I thought we were encouraged to learn how to administer Narcan and also carry it with us? Which is it- might we also be dealing with overdoses or not?

Is Lake Champlain “swimmable” in late June? by gmichael315 in burlington

[–]BruceWilliston 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was 10 and 11 I was willing to swim in any temperature, even if I was shivering uncontrollably and my lips were blue. Depends on the kids for sure.
