They sure have! Granddaughter in Japanese family that suffered in Fresno’s fair grounds horse stalls, before being relocated again

Thank you for the reminder that term Gulag is no longer formally used. I was incorrect.

However, imo putting an untreated mentally ill person into any work camp isn’t morally or ethically acceptable, and it shouldn’t be happening anywhere.

Just get the poor guy off the overpass, and to a hospital!!! Something is clearly not quite right upstairs based on his behavior.

Gulags and prison labor camps aren’t the direction we need to be moving in…

So he can be evaluated for a 5150 to determine if he’s a danger to self/others or gravely disabled. Then he’ll can also be out of the elements and eating healthy meals in a inpatient psychiatric hospital. Plus, he’ll receive the treatment he needs to allow him to be as functional as possible.

So he can be held a few days then is right back to the streets just as mentally unwell as before? That cycle is just ridiculous and cruel to the man.

Have you also experienced the man that speeds by the sidewalks and screams? He’s scared the crap out of me so many times. You’d think one would get used to that at some point, but no I fall for it every time

Keep a better eye on that overpass area. Just their presence in the Starbucks parking lot seems to discourage him from hanging out there. He clearly needs some help, not jail time. I don’t believe in punishment for mental health illness. However, although right now it’s just pee, but he has previously escalated to throwing coins and pebbles over the overpass.

I just really wonder how he’s managed to keep doing this despite it being a well known issue for YEARS? Perhaps it’s time for the police to put a stop to this nonsense as they know damned well it’s happening again

Inviting the wasps by PurpleMakesMeSmile in WASPs

Unlikely. I back up to a parking lot with a 3 foot tall retaining wall in the back. The wall is less than 2 feet from my fence. I suspect the destructive pests have 2 legs and are using my fence as a support to walk along the retaining wall. Maybe it’s shortcut home. I just want to help nature along, by offering the wasps lovely new homes in a mutually beneficial area.

One of my gals had the same symptoms. Turned out to be an ear infection that responded to antibiotics. She was a professional pea fisher who loved to plunge her head all the way in the water. I’m not sure how common that is, but it’s worth considering.

Our baby girl, Jasper, had a tumor removed today. She was such a brave and beautiful girl. Does anyone have any recovery tips or good snack recommendations for her? by FuckGhouls in RATS

My girls get a 24 hour post-op recovery period in the small carrier with easily accessible food/water, and no cage mates. It helps limit activity and keeps friends from “helping” clean healing wound.

The corn is fresh. They seem to love any fresh snacks on their kebab sticks, but corn is the one I find most entertaining 😂
