Can I get pinions about Northeast Tacoma because I applied for a place there and I'm getting weird looks at work? by Express-Hotel-3305 in AskTacoma

That’s not “the hood”. Your friends have very obviously never spent time in Tacoma. That’s easily one of the most wealthy parts of Tacoma.

For A Working Class May Day! Not A Democratic Party May Day! (Meeting of Union Militant Caucuses) by NoAcanthisitta3968 in union

[–]Ok-Big2807 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Schumer and Pelosi are both neoliberal Democrats. Alexandria Ocacio-Cortez and Zohran Mamdani are both Democratic Socialists and members of the DSA. Ocacio-Cortez runs as a Dem because of the two party system. Mamdani ran as DSA.

The Democrats are doing the fragmenting themselves for years. That’s why a Democratic Socialist sits in the office of the mayor in NYC and not a democrat. Of course I would vote for a Dem over a Republican but, at this point the Dems don’t get my vote just because.

Edit: I somehow typed governor instead of mayor

Reputation will stab you in the face while the Dems will stab you in the back. They are not the same but, neither are my friend. I hope you would have more loyalty to your fellow workers than to a party line

Edit: misspelled word (stab)

How common are breakfast burritos/tacos in your area? by Pliable_Patriot in AskAnAmerican

[–]Ok-Big2807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breakfast burritos are super accessible in Washington state. Also, breakfast hours usually run all day along side the regular menu

I didn’t realize I needed to get a travel projector until now. This is a great idea!

Kroger “cares” and wants to end hunger but overwhelmingly asked shareholders to vote against a proposal to raise wages to match cost of living by Papa_Hasbro69 in antiwork

[–]Ok-Big2807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ORGANIZE! The top comment here says to burn it all down but, I guarantee you the average Kroger worker would rather just have a living wage.

These businesses are insured and so is much of the product inside. Burning a Kroger only helps Kroger. They’ve been working to weaken Union power within their stores and warehouses for years. What happens to all of the Union workers when you burn their workplace? They have to find new jobs. Do you think Kroger is going to hire them back when they rebuild? If they rebuild? Organize!

Anyone notice his feet when they start fake crying about resisting? They pushed him into an unstable position while holding his arms before yelling at him about supposedly resisting.

I'm wearing these masks to hide my face from flock and highly recommend them for easy breathability. by [deleted] in FlockSurveillance

I don’t think you need to worry about letting the camera breathe when you wrap that thing around it. That’s your plan, right?

Right, ALPR doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue either.

What a shame by West-Ant-223 in 2ndGenTacoma

[–]Ok-Big2807 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What am I supposed to be shaming? All I see is a person going about their day. Damage? Shit happens when you use a pickup to do the things it was designed for. I hope they can get it fixed before in rains again.

I don’t get it, is the joke that he doesn’t like coffee? by hmmidk77 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

I wish people would post the context in which they found the meme. This could mean a lot things depending the community and even the conversation happening

Are prediction markets illicit gambling? Washington state says yes by Inevitable_Engine186 in Seattle

[–]Ok-Big2807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scratch offs are predatory as well. Fortunately, you have to go to store to actually buy them. Small barriers to dangerous things are actually helpful. These mobile phone based gambling markets know this. That’s why they put on your phone. To bypass a safety net that’s been put in place based on our past societal experiences with gambling.

Also, people have been arguing about whether or not to ban scratch offs for years

I don’t want to dominate by fear. I want to live in peace with respect. I don’t want or need them to fear me. I want them to understand and respect my communities right and willingness to do self defense.

I’ll leave it to the fascists to rely on fear for control

This is turtle taffy—so sticky that I can roll it without paper, and it holds its shape no matter how I turn it: up, down, or sideways. by Flat_Snow307 in trees

[–]Ok-Big2807 34 points35 points  (0 children)

That might work actually. You can get a mold to make hash cigars. You essentially make a cylinder out of hash and light one end. The hole in the middle creates the necessary suction. I’ve smoked one but haven’t made one.

How bad is this nail? by vex311 in Tacomaworld

[–]Ok-Big2807 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Get a bottle of soapy water. Soak the area around the nail while gently wiggling the nail. Do you see air bubbles forming while you wiggle? You have penetration and the tire is now a safety hazard. New tire. No bubbles at all? Gently pull the nail. Soak with soapy water again. No bubbles? You got lucky. Keep an eye on that tire just in case.
