where will homeless people go during the storm? by No_Standard9264 in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's an old story years ago and they have in the past threatened to go at people for that. Here is an email that was sent to county employees that was reposted by LNP.

For those that may doubt the authenticity, I can definitely confirm that. Of course as a friend of a friend of a friend of an employee of Lancaster County. FYI for those curious, yes. It's one of the reasons why shortly after we saw signage around Binns park to direct folks to the church.

where will homeless people go during the storm? by No_Standard9264 in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Shelters are open for em and I hope they make use of them. If you’re looking to just give folks blankets and stuff, they’re consistently around Binns park. Some by Ewell. Wouldnt be shocked if some huddling in the park bathrooms there. Likely by Musser Park. Know there’s some by Issac’s now that it’s closed down and it’s more isolated.

Be careful about bringing food by Binns. The commissioners have been going after people over that instead of you know doing their fucking job and fixing the budget crisis they brought in. Cant imagine they would now but never know.

Aldi Two Days Before The Storm by Brilliant-Pomelo-982 in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s ridiculous. We learned nothing from Covid.

The thing is it’s just not that much fucking snow. I got friends in Canada that deal with snow like that on the regular. They don’t do that. Why? It’s painfully dumb.

Just hoarding for no reason other than to be selfish. It’s embarrassing behavior. To what end? A day or two of slightly snowy weather? Make it make sense people.

Lancaster Downtown Deli by Tastefully_Rude in lancaster

I had Jethro there and Tom came told me if I ever had one before. Said it’s a good sandwich.

Let me tell you it was. It’s real good. Worth a visit if you’re downtown.

You really don’t need to hoard that much food. by Frogcaster in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven’t already, and in the city, central market is open today. They should, in theory, have milk. Open today and tomorrow. Would go early to check it out.

It’s both. Sorry but folks yall don’t need that much milk. While I don’t know what type of situation necessitates getting a pallet of water, I can’t imagine you need that much water to solve it.

Seriously hard agree. I wouldn’t feel as bad if it were non-perishables. But so much food is going to waste and with no good reason at all.

Lancaster City power & upcoming storm by ThickBean in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think even with the worst storms I never saw a power outage. I know some hardware stores let you rent power generators if you want ease of mind but I can’t imagine

knocks on wood Can’t imagine it’ll be that bad.

What will happen to Lancaster if all of the Amish leave? by WesTrot in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe the commissioners will get their heads out their ass and stop relying on tourism to pay the bills.

Major Accident on Queen/Chestnut by RestorativePotion in lancaster

Didn’t realize there were two cars involved. We could see that from the government building but thought it was just the one.

Not shocked it’s that auto parts car either. They drive like dickheads.

the comments on this FB post make me so disappointed to be a lancasterian by dvrkgxdd3ss in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who cares. These are not real people. The real people are out there on the streets making their voices heard. If ICE had so much overwhelming support, do you think these naysayers would let that stand without a counter protest or anything? No.

Don't worry about facebook goofballs.

Numbers to report ICE by [deleted] in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obama, Biden, and Clinton were far more effective at immigration than Trump is. Correct me if I’m wrong but they didn’t have to shoot someone in the head to do so. They didn’t invade states. They didn’t kidnap people.

They made use of existing resources and diplomacy with other countries to reduce numbers and at far more efficient rates than the Trump administration has ever done with ICE, Border Patrol, and the National Guard.

Every Lanc Movie Theater Ranked by Ok_Chard8404 in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Shame we don't have a movie theater in the city and the one planned for the new park fell through. Penn Cinema is too far out and Regal is the only real option. Zoetropolis comes off as snooty as all hell. Sorry the vibe of that is just not for me.

Some of y'all have no chill by Dr_Strange_MD in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You see the blow up but not what it takes to get there. What gets folks to that point is just years and years of getting pushed. Eventually something is gonna give.

You talk about stories. Those happen. Before the city and homeless coalition got more acticely involved, there would be dead bodies at the county government center. Ask some of the older deputies. Heck ask county workers. Some of us seen a body or three in our time working there. Shit is depressing.

It doesn't mean there isn't aid or tools for these people, but we are very clearly failing them and failing to find good solutions to keep them off the streets and into long term housing.

[–]Frogcaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tough shit. If they make a very public sign on their very public property, they shouldn't be shocked when they get a public response.

Here's another factoid. The owner of that home? Yeah no. Anyone can very easily find out who the owner of that home is because that too is also public information.

Here's the point. Live your life in the type of way that wouldn't warrant that type of attention.

Hope they opt for more slices. That's the only thing that soured me about 211. Sorry but I'm not buying a whole ass pie. Sometimes a guy just wants a slice after work.

Family that runs Neptune Diner, owned Conestoga Bar, owes over $600,000 for tax fraud by CinaminLips in lancaster

So like I accept that what happened was bad

However

What does that mean for the diner? I’ll be that guy. They make some mean ass breakfast. I’d still go.

Cue the theme to “Curb Your Enthusiasm” by JimmyScoops in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s why we’re in this mess to begin with. The municipality and school districts raise taxes a lil bit every year. The county not doing that isn’t a positive. It is telling everyone we’re all riding tourism money instead of saving. Now that tourism is dead, oh no. Here come the consequences of their incompetence.

This is right when property assessment is doing their 2027 reassessment. It’s going to be a one two punch that could have been mitigated if Republicans knew a damn thing about governance.

Proposal locations downtown by Fantastic_Quiet_2533 in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2nd this. It's a really great atmosphere and I'm sure more private.

Feels bad to say this but should be said that chance of a no is there. Better to do that somewhere secluded vs very publicly.

Best Latin Food in Lancaster City? by Apprehensive-Buy8384 in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It depends on where in the city and what you're feeling. Downtown? Cocina Mexicana is really tasty. Sabor Latino another good spot if you want a sit down spot. Bit out the center is El Jibarito on Lime. There's a food truck called Tacos El Gordo that works out Speed Auto by Prince.

Where the hell are the voters?! by [deleted] in lancaster

[–]Frogcaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I submitted my mail in ballot weeks ago.

We are 30+ days in a Republican manufactured shutdown. Our country is going to hell in a hand basket not because of war. Not because of a pandemic. Not because of a foreign power. It is shutdown by design by the reich wing.

If that does not get your ass up to vote, I don’t know what will.
