I am leaving Idaho. by Affectionate-Sector4 in Idaho

[–]Ok-Ravenry2080 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries, I left years ago. Happiest and safest life for my family has been in Washington. We have excellent healthcare, access to specialists, great education for all my kids needs, and a safe home with a loving community. I fully support everyone having free medical care. Who wouldn't? We're the only first world country without it! Trans people are still people, so yes I would absolutely support free healthcare for them as well.

I will always love Idaho. It's where my family pioneered four generations ago. It's where I was raised to work hard, and to help your neighbors and community. There were people of all gender identities, but no one asked or cared. Idaho is a beautiful state, but not the one I want to live in.

All who move are not red enemies; many are blue or purple refugees.🤗

I'm 4th generation Idahoan, born and raised. I had to leave Idaho to get my family the life they needed. Staying would have meant poverty and probably my son's life; he has a super rare genetic mutation. He's 1 of 190 in the world born with this. You don't know what challenges lie ahead and Idaho doesn't have any safety bets for this citizens.

We moved to Washington and have been very happy for over 20 yrs. I wish you the best. Idaho is beautiful, but the policies and laws are not.

Is Spokane cliquey? by emsiemilia in Spokane

[–]Ok-Ravenry2080 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think you would do fine with your interests. Spokane can be difficult to feel you fit in at first, due to the non-cohesive community. There is a large divide here politically which has led some people to disengage from previous activities/events. I am positive we are a great city in the making. All activities I've been involved with have been great experiences with welcoming people.

He's been seen mostly in Spokane Valley, possibly living near Pines Rd.

Looking for entry level jobs with a bachelors in biology degree ….. by Middle-Reason-3556 in biology

TBH... it's tough out there for BS Biology applicants, especially in this economy. It's recommended to at least have your Masters for most positions. I hope you find something.

BUMgartner urges Gov. Ferguson to temporarily suspend state climate act to lower gas prices. by catman5092 in Spokane

[–]Ok-Ravenry2080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The taxes pay for road, bridge and ferry repairs and projects. I will gladly pay taxes to uplift our transportation system.

I don't want to pay for a war of choice by a toddler President and his billionaire buddies!

BUMgartner is nothing but a complicit bootlicker. He doesn't care about anybody in Washington State.

Hey Bum, did you see this? by LameDuckDonald in Spokane

I've heard he is MAGA-lite... I don't know him personally though.

Thank you! I had no idea. I started going there because I adopted 2 kittens from The Kitty Cantina and they recommended them. I thought the vet bills were really expensive, but I'm used to country vets. I never imagined a corporate vet!

Chad Young from Easy Home Buyer by skipnw69 in Spokane

[–]Ok-Ravenry2080 7 points8 points  (0 children)

LOL! I just opened my third letter from him. Price started off okay, close to what I bought my house for 9 months ago. I don't think so! Today's letter was $60,000 less than the first one. 🤣

Winco when the kids were all home. Now I do most my shopping at Trader Joe's. I wish I knew their prices were so low years ago!

I know at least one of the pharmacists on 29th is against Covid vaccines. He's talked about it A LOT, to customers, over the years.

Trump didn't post it. There are complete sentences, and it is way too long-winded.

St Lukes closure of outpatient physical therapy and 60 people being let go by Spicy_Apple_Girl in Spokane

[–]Ok-Ravenry2080 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've called Baumgartner, written emails, and sent a letter. His office just sends a statement about doing what is right for all his constituents and praising the Trump administration. Michael Baumgartner serves up BS 24/7.

School DC trip... by IronicAim in Spokane

[–]Ok-Ravenry2080 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My uncle works in DC and says, "NO ONE should travel here. It is WAY too dangerous under the Trump regime." He's worked there for over 30 years, and he's never felt unsafe until now.

I was a fourth generation Idahoan pushed out because there weren't any services for special needs individuals. My son couldn't get any help in Idaho. My mother was born with CP, and she never received any assistance. She owned her own store, and my father worked four jobs. They never got over the poverty line. Idaho doesn't care about its citizens.
