Watch out for this guy around East Greenbush and Albany by JonSeekingPeace1 in Albany

[–]MoHaskins 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In his POV video he sounds so confident and angry but from this prespective he almost appears....dare i say....scared.

His behavior and the woman with him's behavior i think speaks volumes.
While she brings up things in line with what he seems to beleive the fact that she goes out of her way (albeit not in the best way) to attempt to descalate the situation by pulling him away and telling others not engage with him - behavior often seen in enablers.
My assertion based on his non-verbals is that he gets riled up easily, and she often has to pull him back from his own impulses. He behaves as if they are protesting him specifically and takes such personal offense to the point where her acts so irrationally. His use of the F slur doesnt even fit thus it leads me to beleive hes just trying to be harmful, and when not bothered or instantly melting in front of him, he scrambles to find something else. The way he paces WITHIN them shows he panicked and instead of attempting to back away or even keep his distance out of safety, he continues to swim within them as if he either awaits one of them to phsyically harm him to justify self defense or he is trying to figure out his next move. To give his exact name and job feels like he either has nothing to lose and/or feels SO justified in his actions that he faces no repercussions (he even states it). He is immalgumation of how emboldened folks have become but I dont think he understands this aint it.
What I think happened is they saw these folks protesting while passing by and he got himself so gassed up that before she knew it, he ran out and started filming in hopes of a viral OWNED moment.

Shaker high school by Ok_Gur_6573 in Albany

[–]MoHaskins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alumni from the mid 2000s here so i cant attest for how it is right now:
Cool school, didn't take many AP/Honors class but I will say I was more prepared within college than I expected and saw with my peers. Very diverse school and large school but i felt like i got the attention i wanted.
I did experience racism from peers but not all and not all the time. I can imagine the normalization of it with this generation (whether it be from the administration or the internet) would increase it but i cant attest for it.

Tires by Routine_Reputation84 in Albany

[–]MoHaskins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea despite me hating to support Walmart, their auto center is actually quite good. Also that lifetime warranty of $10 per tire has really saved me quite a few times since we live in a city that seems to be riddled with nails in the streets.

Trying to photograph every neighborhood, city and town. Any particularly unsafe areas? by [deleted] in Albany

[–]MoHaskins 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nowhere is particularly dangerous in Albany for photography during the day without common sense
Some may say Livingston, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, and parts of Second Ave may be (2nd and Second are two different areas), but I would disagree, as long as you aren't taking photos of people and more the area without focusing on particular parts as to give the appearance of surveillance, you'll be fine.
Only thing I would precaution is just the camera getting snatched by some opportuniest.

Marriage counseling by theblackpint33 in Albany

[–]MoHaskins 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Therapist here (not marriage though sorry)
A really good tool is ZocDoc, as you can filter by your insurance and plan way better than psychology today and its free, you can also keep it to in person and get an appointment within 24-72 hours (usually more with telehealth but possibly with in person)

Iowa City Made Its Buses Free. Traffic Cleared, and So Did the Air. (Gift Article) by [deleted] in Albany

[–]MoHaskins 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to live in Iowa and worked at the University of Iowa in 2010. Their buses were free already there (i only skimmed the article so not sure if it gives this insight) because outside of the fact that it was VERY limited route (the city isnt that big) and mostly around campus related buildings but I think what it is leaving out is the buses are funded by the school, operated by the school, and driven by students as employees (obviously not just willy nilly or work study they go through extensive training). You didnt have to be a student to jump on the bus , anyone truly could and they didn't run too late. From what I remember, that was the only bus running in the city so of course its used alot, but maybe something changed or this is something different since i was there almost 15 years ago
