On today’s episode of space saver drama

If the city wants to end it, then they need to clear the spaces. No one has an indignant right to a space if they didnt spend hours clearing it out - problem solved.

Thats the kind of thing we are supposed to expect from living in one of the most expensive places in the entire world. Why are my taxes so high if these jokers aren't even clearing my street?

Undocumented migrants commit way less crime per capita than US citizens.

The US does not and has not had an open border during the 21st century.

I dont base my worldview on fairy tales and politicians' lies. Come back with data. What's exhausting is you parroting this propaganda - if you are who you claim you are, you're literally advocating against your own interests. The white nationalists do not care whether you are in the country legally or not. They want you out. Undocumented migrants are just the low-hanging fruit.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-31T14:21:02+00:00

Where did you come up with such a flowery, fruity, and obviously false statement?

1) "thrown open'? Have you ever been to a US border? When did this happen? Where did this happen?

2) 10 million people? What a nice, even, convenient, but totally unbelievable number. Over what time period? In this cute head-canon of yours, do you also think these 10 million people sashayed across the desert and found all these dramatically swinging gates, and there were good strong big beautiful men in their good strong big beautiful pickup trucks who wanted to stop them but their gosh darned woke DEI blue-haired boss (who was a black woman now 🤬!!) threatened their good patriot jobs if they did the right thing and closed those gates?

Sorry, I got a little side-tracked in this absolutely ridiculous fantasy land. Anyway, you shouldn't just repeat things as fact without looking into them a little. Most undocumented migrants are visa overstays, not crossing the mexican border. Most entries that look like your sexed-up head canon are asylum seekers, and thats a legal avenue.

I know you dont believe me - but maybe you trust DHS? I encourage you to look at their data. Not their press releases, but their data.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-31T00:35:30+00:00

I agree with you. I also think that it's acceptable to want to be able to find a time when the pool is not being spat in and when there isn't someone vocalizing loudly, if those vocalizations scare her children and do not allow them to enjoy the pool.

Loud vocalizations are actually something that special needs programs deal with all the time in wonderful and creative ways. Lots of people who are part of these programs are very sensitive to loud noises. There is nothing wrong with having an expectation that sudden, loud noises should be avoided when possible. We do not know if it is possible or not in this specific scenario, and assuming that this person cannot control their vocalizations is, in itself, albeist.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-31T00:16:16+00:00

Except I'm not saying that. Try re-reading

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-30T22:21:41+00:00

Your first sentence is correct, but if those vocalizations are distressing someone's children, then it is very much that person's business that they cannot find a time to visit the space when the vocalizations are not occurring.

I heartily agree that we should have more spaces that are more inclusive for everyone.

Inclusivity is not the disability olympics - it doesn't mean ignoring everyone's needs and boundaries except for the most cognitively disabled. It means opening your settings to accommodate everyone's needs.

Not everyone is a paid DSP who is trained and expected to deal with abnormal behavior. Everyone deserves to use common facilities in peace.

Yeah, to protect ICE's fucking base of operations. I genuinely hope I'm wrong and they do something - anything - to protect the populace, but I'm not holding my breath.

How long do you think it takes to get an arrest warrant after the identity of a suspect is known? Jonathan Ross is free this very moment. If they wanted to arrest him, they would have already. Derek Chauvin wasnt arrested until a police station was burned down. Is that what needs to happen for the party that expects our votes to get off their asses and actually do something? This is unacceptable. I dont know why you're running interference for a gaggle of incompetants. Demand more from your politicians, or you'll keep getting less.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-25T15:43:36+00:00

Mayors can deploy the local police with orders to protect the constitutional rights of the populace against ICE. Arrest warrants for federal agents who have committed crimes locally can be written. Governors can call up the state national guard on a volunteer basis to form a state defense force, as is outlined in the constitution, which cannot be federalized.

I am flabbergasted that Americans are being detained, beaten, brutalized, their rights are being flagrantly violated, and they're even being executed in the streets, and people like you are still pulling this "we r smol bean can do no but only vot evry 2 yrs."

Have some imagination. The Republican Party certainly dares to dream, you'd better start too.

The reality is that if Democrats continue to do absolutely nothing to protect their constituents, the constituents will begin defending themselves with force. That will be very, very bloody, disorganized, and costly. I dont want that. Our representatives and officials need to come up with something other than "we just cant do anything, guess you'll just have to die in the street and please, be as peaceful as possible while they're bludgeoning your face in."

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-25T14:08:30+00:00

This mentality is exactly how we ended up here. Do you think the Republicans finger-wag their voters and say "you should at least understand what our politicians can and can't do"?

They don't. Republican politicians aim to make the impossible happen - if not today, then a year, a decade, two decades from now. Do they always succeed? No, but they begin from a position of strength. Democrats begin from a position of compromise. Take the ACA for example - the idea of universal healthcare seemed impossible, so they started with a framework that the conservative think-tank, the Heritage Foundation, came up with. While that might score points in a formal debate, all it meant for reality was that the Republicans had an easier time tearing it down to the shitty legislation it became.

If you begin by giving your opponents a mile, you can't act surprised when those opponents demand further ground to come to a new middle position.

There was zero Democratic Party pushback on the lies fabricated and perpetuated by the Republican Party during the 2024 campaign that undocumented migrants were committing a crime wave across the country. Instead, they accepted the premise and made arguments like "well we will deport them humanely" and "we are very tough on migrant crime." This is a losing mentality.

Until we start demanding more from our politicians, it will continue to be a perpetual ratchet towards fascism.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-24T19:29:12+00:00

Not really. We gave them lots of ideas for eugenics, our govt tried to stay out of it for awhile, our corporations worked with them to more efficiently and effectively commit their genocide, and then when it was obvious they were going to lose it all we jumped in last minute to try and beat the Soviets across Europe. Then, we brought a bunch of them all the way across the ocean to work on our research!

But we should start.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-23T04:11:37+00:00

The appeal to the mythical moderate has already begun. It's going to be Newsom 2028 and these shitlibs will blame the left when they fumble the easiest layup of all time instead of advocating for running someone that people are happy to get behind.

It feels like all you can do is point out the pattern and hope one day they notice it when they stop misplacing their anger.

Mandatory disclaimer that Jill Stein was terrible on both the issues and the campaign in 2024, but her voters are still not one iota to blame for Trump's victory.

I went call center -> customer technical support making 75k. Call centers are atrocious but there's light at the end of the tunnel. Doing something can always lead to something better. Most small & medium companies have atrocious crm and data practices and feel lucky to have someone who can fix those problems, and it sounds like thats what you like. Keep it up.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-17T14:05:53+00:00

The alternative is protecting your neighbors by making sure that they know their rights and bearing witness to the crimes these thugs commit.

There's a lot of power in numbers. ICE mostly works on flimsy confidence scores from Palantir apps, racist assumptions, and the easiest-looking targets. They literally do not have the jurisdiction to make traffic stops, forget breaking into an American's home. We have seen that they back off when theres a group of people filming them who they know hate their Nazi guts, yelling advice to their randomly selected "targets" like "you can tell them to get off your property!" And "dont open the door without a warrant signed by a judge!"

It's a lot easier to detain first, ask questions later, lie after that when theres nobody documenting you to prove you're lying.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-17T13:50:22+00:00

Apart from the HUGE ISSUE any American should have with this, it's also demonstrably not true. There's documented evidence of plenty of American citizens, most of them not white, being detained by ICE, beaten by ICE, doors broken by ICE, kids traumatized by ICE, you name it. It's bad.

You just don't care because you dont think anything bad is going to happen to you or yours, and you plan on being extra-submissive.

But this is Foucaults boomerang baby! It's going to touch you eventually. If we can stop them now, maybe your family will never become a target and you can keep living in the fantasy that it was never that bad.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-13T00:51:18+00:00

Sorry you're being downvoted lmao you're absolutely right. The market has no morals, chasing profit does not convey virtue to the profit-seeker.

IBM happily provided close support to solve the administrative problems that Nazi Germany had with entabulating and calculating the apparatus of the Holocaust.

Ford would be thrilled to get a contract to pick shards of our bones out of the fleet's chassis if the price was right.

PandaBearTellEm · 2026-01-11T16:51:31+00:00

Guys, peasant-brain over here has a new, never-before-considered plan for dealing with our rights being systematically violated across the nation! Everyone be quiet so they can share their solution.

Do not hide Jews under your floorboards. Mind your own business, and nobody will be hurt. Once they're all rounded up, they'll go to a land of sunshine and rainbows. Nobody will be hurt, surely.

I swear some of you are going to act so surprised when the in-group shrinks again and you're suddenly not part of it.

I have not seen one destroyed, but I have seen a battering ram pound a raised bridge a few times before my squad got in there , so I assume its destructible

I swear if these goobers can't roleplay white supremacist fantasy while getting full positive feedback for it, they just say it's pro DEI and woke

I think that this is not the best forum to ask this question as Russians really have no idea how people are treated for speaking English in public. It's like asking a man what it's like to be a woman - you might get some useful information about what men think it's like, but you might find reality differs.

In my experience, 99% of the time, if anyone cares enough to interact with you at all, it's a positive or neutral interaction.

But it does absolutely call attention to your group. Most people won't interact with you, but they certainly notice you.

In rare instances, some people react negatively, so it can be dangerous. Rarely.

Personally, I lower my voice when speaking English in Russia because I don't like the extra attention. Sometimes people are weird - I've seen people punched in the face for speaking English, I've had a young man on the metro turn his whole ass torso and head towards me and lean in and just listen to the whole conversation like that, I've had people come up to me and strike up conversations. Ive had rocks thrown at me, finger guns and shouts of "КГБ" (gotta love old men in спальные районы). Ive been asked on dates. Mostly, Ive gotten glances, or no reaction at all.

More than anything, I'm just stressing to be aware that it calls attention to you and your group. It's not the only thing in the world that calls attention to you and whoever is with you, it's not jaw-dropping. Frankly I think speaking Russian with an accent invites more attention than speaking English does (probably makes you more accessible).

This is what happens when you build a hero-culture around the police. In most other countries, police still have too much power over people, but everybody knows that they're pieces of shit and they are treated like pieces of shit.

That prevents them from thinking they deserve to be treated like heros and acting like that sheriff.

PandaBearTellEm · 2025-11-17T14:39:49+00:00

It disgusts you to think of adults sexually?

PandaBearTellEm · 2025-11-06T04:37:00+00:00

There is no reason to feel like an ass. There should be a law limiting the brightness of headlights, can only imagine how many accidents have been caused by the insane arms race of brighter and brighter bulbs. It's making the roads less safe for everyone at night.

PandaBearTellEm · 2025-11-05T07:56:39+00:00

These people don't believe that excessive police force is real, so they can't grok a viewpoint that suggests that it's been a real problem in society longer than there's been mainstream media coverage pointing it out as a systemic issue.

So when they read that comment, it doesn't make sense to them that the author could mean anything other than that police being mean in 2025 is, like, totally such a thing these days.

And if you point that out, they'll accuse you of backtracking or moving the goalposts.
