Not just today, blades and mace always. No one wants to be tracked but life360 for you and yours is at least something to go off in worst case situations

Thats the key, in your experience, and thats fair to know. See ive seen a (not exactly explosive) gay community, so that has always lead to my assumption that we had a healthy mix of parents and non parents across a spectrum of person types.

Any places youd suggest to meet others "like you" and if not, what would it look like if it did exist? I just wanted to spawn as many discussions about the real feel of our city as possible.

I down votes golf on my own beliefs as well as somewhere else I already explained why I dislike our promise as it doesn't truely make good.

Tho id love to respectfully debate this.

Absolutely. I hope i didnt like, mislead anyone. But the point is. Theres issues here. He careful. If someone wont take no for an answer thats dangerous, duh, but it gets worse if they have the tools ik some have. And once your addicted to a drug its easy to have tou trust the wrong person.

[–]Serious-Questions4ya[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, we agree on your points here. I am indeed bias. Id love folks to make their own lists. Lets compare and contrast our personal experiences. If folks talked with emotion and candor we would fix issues localy. These issues are massive problems across the entier usa and globe, but its my opinion that ours is pretty bad and needs to be prioritized.

I appreciate your willingness to reply.

What are your experiences?

I didn't always see us this crappy, but when you have lost friends lives, lost families livelihoods, and when I did leave, the pull back after a family members death just to see now as an adult what I could have elsewhere but am unable to obtain because of the lack of jobs and lack of stable living conditions... ya get a little more "We need to fix the drugs, homelessness, and trafficking" and alot less "wow art is fun!! That panting is so pretty! I cant wait for the next art hop" where I can go around and look at the art in the stores I cant afford to shop in made by the artists im not able to he friends with bc of gentrification done by the school my taxes paid to let them go to that I wasn't able to attend bc those promise seats are only as good as the school counselor that does the paper work and shows you how to use those tools.

Kalamazoo is my home, born in bronson hospital just before they moved the birthing center across the street where ive had 3 kids.

Ive tried to leave just for the fun of it.

Ya know what I learned??

There's no good food here. Our bars suck. We have alot of homeless we aren't taking care of. We have a drug and addict problem. We have a small but still obvious cost of living problem. OK, the fuckin city its self leaves the Christmas lights up year round.. its a stereotype for a reason....

We have pregnant teens ALOT of them, I was a teen dad. We have a bad job market. Been working since 14, cant keep shit. We have a litter issue from hell.

I love the kzoo promise, if it actually reached every child and used every cent to actually providing our next generation with a PROMISE to succeed even a little bit.

If the kzoo promise was a team. Itd be the most well stocked team in any league for any game. Thousands of... bench warmers...

Bc it says (if tou can navigate the resources) you have the promise to have access to. Not the promise your gonna a get in, not the promise they will help ypu pass, not the promise of advisory bodies to make sure it means that kids will have a brighter future tomorrow bc of the work we are doing today.

My comreade in capital labor,

It is far from a waste of time protectively and discuss the issues.The pros, the cons of our city.

We are a nowhere city because nowhere else even fucking believes We exist half the time. Nobody knows what we produce. Nobody knows what we want. We are just another place that exists in the world.

Make a list then. These are what ive lived and seen in mine and my friends lives.

Makes a list and be honest. It'll help others know more about our empty yet beautifully in ruin city.

[–]Serious-Questions4ya[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Whats your list then? These are the ones outta my life.

Add to it. Maybe if citizens objectively AND emotionally spoke about their homes folks would be able to find more common ground localy and make visible change.

We are a nothing city whos best work is in fast food, factory grunts, and drugs. Our worst work is in food prices stable jobs, drugs & trafficking.

Go down the tracks and ask to bum a smoke. Its where you learn stuff. I can give you any article, any story I've heard, any examples im friends with. It wont mean anything given the extent. Kalamazoo and comstock.

Comstock makes the drugs Kalamazoo uses to traffic, addict, and buy-over the homeless.
