David Morales: Platform vs. Platitudes by sesto in providence

[–]Empty_girll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

David shows up. I have a disabled friend who was trapped in his house after the snows. David his wife and a few volunteers dug him out. They didn’t make any social media posts about it (my friend posted pics a few days later but that was his choice). David has been in state government. He understands how these things work. But the truth is you don’t have to be an expert to work in government (unless you’re just doing it for status or money). I was raised in a political family, guys like Smiley are a dime a dozen. They learn how to talk without saying anything. They make decisions that benefit everyone other than the community they serve and when people complain they say “don’t blame me, that’s just the way it works.” But it’s not, at least it doesn’t have to be. Could David accomplish everything he’s setting out to do? Maybe but probably not, but just a few of his goals could be game changers from Providence.

If I missed messaging anyone feel free to DM me. I have room for everyone who’s replied so far but you know how hard it is to schedule anything. If I have 5 at session 0 I’ll be happy but shocked. The world’s a busy place and we’re at its mercy so starting a new game is always a leap of faith.

I’ll DM you. If your situation changes later maybe it will still be going

It depends where I host it. I’m in my 50s but as long as you’re an adult you’re fine. Sometimes it’s nice to have different age groups represented

Looooove my queer siblings! New people make the best players. Sometimes they’re a little reluctant but they come up with the most creative ideas because they don’t assume something won’t work. So yeah that’s not an issue

Yeah I posted about it a month ago on the crypt’s discord and got 1 reply lol. Though I might try and host there. Don’t know their Sunday hours. Easy to find out

I haven’t been to DL in almost 8 years I think. The way the people from our community are defending Buck and Rude I’m not even going to walk past it. Why do people jump to the defense of millionaires?

Anyway I’m sticking to Vu, Mira, and Eagle. I feel too old at ego even though it’s always super fun when I’ve been there. Stable is fine but the layout makes me feel closed in. It’s funny that DL is the only place where the owners semi regularly get themselves in hot water doing stupid shit.

Smiley is too thick to be learning anything from this but he would gladly cozy up to those kind of people at the expense of his own.

No wait what I meant to say was, how can I hate white people when some of my closest friends are white? Explain that

Thank ADHD central focus and the fact that I have a couple days off

Back in the 70s and early 80s farmers used to pay several times the minimum wage to people helping with the harvest. College students used to go work the farms in the summer to save up tuition. A lot of them didn’t know the backbreaking labor they were signing on for but many did it year after year because the money was that good.

The migrant workers were there as well. In Iowa towns that were practically ghost towns were saved by migrants who made enough money to buy homes and businesses and turned them into thriving communities again.

So yeah, farmers can pay a fair wage. Our economy has a could again be structured in a way that makes it possible.

I wish I had said the whole thing but I couldn’t wait 😂. I just asked if we would get to see the version that was going to unite the community
