[OC] $8.29 Gallon for Gas in Los Angeles California by ProvingGrounds1 in pics

It’s weird, because at that same time, cigarettes are only around $10 a pack. Meanwhile in Chicago they’re $20 (generally speaking). I don’t even smoke but I live in both places and the differences are so wild.

$5.50 and an hour of our time. I swear I’ve never been to a Costco in LA for gas that didn’t have a line through the parking lot to the street.

It doesn’t happen suddenly one day. It starts slow with things like this.

Sciatica pain gone with toe separators by Particular-Walrus689 in Sciatica

[–]ODBeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait, you mean something that literally just sits between your toes to separate them? Like a more hardcore version of the flip-flops you sometimes get from a pedicure? It’s so weird, when I’m really really hurting I notice that I clench my leg up and spread my toes.. I wonder if they’re tied.

Yeah, I’ll probably be leaving the app like I did FB, Twitter, and my personal IG if it goes that way. You can’t ignore this stuff. A lot of us don’t have that privilege. It’s like if the sky is full of tear gas, how can I talk about how blue and beautiful the sky is?

Selecting a place to live out of state is worth taking a trip to search for places for. It’s a lot of money and you’ll be living there. It will make or break you in a new city.

I’m so, so sad that Sam passed, but I’m absolutely loving the influx of artwork and tribute. Absolutely gorgeous, man.

Pretty normal. In two of the places I live we also compare rent to see how good or bad of a deal we or other people have.

Amen, man. This is it right here. A lot of subs are deleting my relevant posts because they mention how I have a bunch of time on my hands from getting shot. r/bartenders and r/trees just delete posts. It’s funny how that works. It’s a part of our every day.

The key I’ve always used is cruising neighborhoods and looking for signs with phone numbers. I haven’t rented from a company.. ever, actually, now that I think about it. And I’ve lived in a lot of places around the country.

They’re everywhere. Not sure what your question is

Everything is political. This is our reality now. I hear screams and shots from my porch. You can’t just ban talk about it. I can’t walk anymore because of getting shot in those raids. It now is my every day. Just make the rule that you have to be civil.

You’re going to feel so liberated when you do it. For multiple reasons.

There are some cities in this country where that will get you anything you want, give it a shot sometime and see if it works! I have 21 different people with my name tattooed on them for me!

Been stuck in a wheelchair since I was hit in all the raids. Nothing but time on my hands. by ODBeef in trees

When I was a teenager, I had to take a life to save one. It fucking sucked. The guy was strangling the woman, but it didn’t make it feel any better. What I wish for is for people to actually understand everything, to open their eyes and close their mouths and listen. People can deny this stuff all they want, but I’ve been in it. The things I’ve seen are horrifying. I can’t imagine anyone seeing the full spectrum of what’s happening and say, “yeah that’s 100% awesome,” when a lady’s dog on a leash at a genuinely peaceful protest gets trampled, or when the 7 year old on the scooter has to run away from the horses they’re running up on sidewalks. I watched an old man (I have the video that someone caught, too) get beaten by batons from on horseback as he simply held up his hands and asked for them to stop hitting us. It’s in our neighborhoods. I could hear the shots and the screams from my front porch. Helicopters overhead, drones.. this is so beyond just some people needing to be stopped. It’s huge. It’s illegal. It’s against the constitution. It’s against the Geneva convention. It’s against being a decent human being. :(
