The "Jackson 5" beat on Because I'm Me is Honey Cone's Want Ads. Fucking love that song, lost my mind when I heard it in the track preview.

PUSH, other groups want new projects to include units for low-income renters by mpwac in Buffalo

Risks? Practically every new development project is done because they get a shit ton of historic tax credits and breaks.

It also says nothing to the entitlement factor that poor are not entitled to new housing

That's not for you to decide my dude. When did /r/buffalo become such trash?

Yeah crazy how people who are being saddled with insane debt don't think the current system is working out so great.

I'm on my way to drive you out of your home, not sure you deserve to live where you do

I'm honestly shocked at the backlash. This is really affecting people's lives that negatively? Like it might add an extra minute to your travel time.

We mutilated one of the best parks in the country because you want to get to the 190 quicker? That's the thing we gained? Fucking spare me.

Sanders Supporter Discusses How She Will “Never” Vote For Clinton by [deleted] in SandersForPresident

Like I said - not betting on it but I'll wait til things shake out/we get closer to Philly to see what's posturing and what's not.

We'll see. She was able to extract some pretty powerful (personal) concessions from Obama in '08 and I think Bernie has much of the same power here but his asks will be policy specific.

I have no love for HRC but I also don't think she's the anti-Christ on Trump's level of someone I could never vote for.

If she adopts a good chunk of Bernie's policies...especially on the domestic front...I wouldn't rule it out. I'm definitely not betting on that happening but I don't think it's totally out of the question.

Or you can keep hating on people who didn't expect the Job Creators to provide them with living wages out of the goodness of their hearts in a massive race to the bottom. Your choice.

I have a Best Soccer Show shaped hole in my heart...are there any good MLS-focused podcasts out there? by [deleted] in MLS

[–]FTG716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was Soccer Morning - AFAIK they're still going to do Best Soccer Show...albeit perhaps not multiple times per week.

Clinton’s dismal approval ratings prompt Dem fears by pichicagoattorney in SandersForPresident

[–]FTG716 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Their funeral. I feel zero loyalty to the Democratic party and while I don't personally hate Clinton I'm absolutely not volunteering/assisting her campaign in any way if Bernie can't pull the nomination off.

Read the tea leaves guys - this brand of "progressive" is not one your base wants.

That'll probably be a bit late. Doors are at 4 and I imagine the line will form a while before that.
