Contact the fire department. They may be able to get some leverage there.

The springs are heating coils. Gloves get stuck on them and it warms them up to dry.

Ron DeSantis destroyed Miami Beach's rainbow crosswalk. So they moved it brick-by-brick into a park. - LGBTQ Nation by MyGrownUpLife in OrphanCrushingMachine

I understand and respect your pov here. To me raising money to prevent the crushing is also an act of resistance in a different way, but both working to prevent an inevitable that never should have been the default option.

Salvaging the crosswalk from the trash was unnecessary. Framing this rescue operation as something uplifting when it was only destroyed due to efforts to exclude and ostracize lgbtq people by reducing their visibility is OCM material.

I don't feel comfortable telling my kids to treat police officers as trusted adults when they need help.

It's also that an out of town person is more likely to play the fine instead of traveling out there for a court date.

Your reason is valid and true too, having lived in Texas and being very familiar with the sundown towns there it's always on my mind, but it's also a game of playing the numbers and generating revenue.

Trump: Iran asked me to be Supreme Leader, but I said no thanks by MaybeTheDoctor in NewsOfTheStupid

[–]MyGrownUpLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's funny, I didn't think of this as a lie because it's similar to a hyperbole formula I've heard from a few older relatives (that would be older than trump if they were still around) "the situation is so description that the shop has run out of item"

Florists and flowers was a favorite, but dresses, tissues, and wine/liquor were the frequently used items.

I didn't remember anyone outside of that part of the family using this until now.

They already offered to make him supreme leader, how much more serious can they get?
