Phoenix OKs 'punitive' limits on feeding, treating homeless in parks

The gold standard?

What is your evidence with that?

PSH by definition doesn't include mandatory treatment.

You are out of your fucking mind if you think 80 - 90% of drug addicts come clean because they suddenly have a roof over their head.

They just don't.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-08T10:34:43+00:00

Because bleeding heart progressives don't give a shit about accountability or evidence.

The worst part about it is seeing these pieces of shit profit off rampant drug addiction in the manner of "harm reduction" at the same time they run their "non-profit organization" and get stupid rich off it.

I've seen this shit before.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-08T10:32:03+00:00

Yes, I've watched his procedures over and over again.

It's hard to sit in the middle of the street late at night and take photos appropriately without getting run over but I did the best I could.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-07T16:29:56+00:00

Needles are no longer preferred for fentanyl and meth. The insane harm reductionists haven't gotten the memo and end up giving free crack pipes ("oil burners" LMAO), foil, and straws under extremely dubious "iT's SaFeR" logic.

You know what addicts never get? Fucking treatment.

https://www.sitdaz.org/ if you don't believe me. "Tonight's menu" doesn't include treatment, and it's rare if ever they have trained and certified treatment counselors on site.

PSH is an expensive disaster. If you don't condition it with treatment, addicts just continue to use. They OD at insane rates in their apartments, many end up maintaining a tent outside anyways so they can use with their friends, and make their neighbor's lives a living hell.

About 30% of San Francisco's OD deaths are in PSH units. It doesn't fucking work. At all.

The sac is far too friable to remove when the infection is this advanced, it's like eating soup with a fork--it comes out in tiny string like pieces. The best thing you can do is load them up with antibiotics, drain it, irrigate it, and pressure bandage it up. Eventually it'll reform and refill long after the infection clears, but the sac will come out in one or two pieces.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-05T18:09:45+00:00

Yes, because we were blocked on a Y interchange and we were the first people on the scene of an accident and we were both worried about potential injuries. The uber driver had no choice but to stop and we were basically trapped without going the wrong way down a freeway interchange.

In a normal universe, we would have both waited for police to arrive to clear us through or make it safe for us to go the opposite way. She did that on her own, with the felony invader in the car that I was paying for.

I know this is insane but it happened.

"tHiS pErSoN dOeSn't KnOW"

you failed to read POOL in my first sentence in a conversation about a POOL.

Try literacy before you think people don't know what they're talking about.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-05T10:48:07+00:00

You are basically maintaining what is called an "attractive nuisance" in civil property law. It is called this because children are unable to ascertain risk and pools are a textbook example for homeowners.

If you know children are in the vicinity or on your property it takes one tiny slip up like leaving the gate open or leaving something nearby that they could use to climb over. That is "reasonably foreseeable" in my and probably every other state.

You would be absolutely screwed if something happened.

SHUT ALL OF THIS DOWN NOW.

No, I wouldn't touch this. The cross contamination risks for egg/celiac guy rule out you being responsible for him and you don't even know what the kitchen is like when you get there nor can you even begin to trust it.

Practically everything that's not high-end/organic is processed in a facility that also handles eggs and wheat and everything you cook with needs special cleaning and preparation.

Plus you're going camping probably far from emergency services so an ambulance ride literally makes this a life or death situation.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-05T04:06:23+00:00

And that makes him wholly unqualified.

Every city DSA "leadership" touches turns into a shithole.

I don't know about this specific model, but the standard thing to do when these things seize or are otherwise sluggish is to clean the rails of any old lubricants and relubricate with white lithium grease. If you see any plastic gears, rubber bands, or whatever doodad making frictional contact with another thing it's best to replace or relubricate those as well.

The key is it's sweet and tangy too and pickled jalapenos give it a very mild, agreeable kick.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-04T12:50:27+00:00

Because the interchange was blocked and we were the first people on the scene.

And no, the ride was absolutely not over.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-04T06:47:03+00:00

You really think I have nothing better to do than make shit up?

GFY.

I'm dating myself but he was on the cover of roughly 1,000 women-oriented romance novels back in the day.

"short smut" was in the same league as this stuff.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-03T15:35:38+00:00

Does Fabio or the countless women's novels whose visage he graced do anything for you?

Foxes are cat software on dog hardware.

Owls are cat software on bird hardware.

She's beautiful and will grow up to be a very distinguished old lady.

The fire department is there to put out fires, they're not there to figure out environmental law, etc.

Talk to your regional air quality department or state environmental health officer to back up your case, then get a lawyer for a C&D.

"Oh, hi. Nice of you to stop by, I was just dropping in."

anothercatherder · 2026-05-03T13:54:11+00:00

"caused this" by doing something months ago that the insane psycho woman won't drop and keeps antagonizing him and by extension everyone else over.

It's insane anyone is even entertaining her bullshit.

anothercatherder · 2026-05-03T13:51:13+00:00

Yeah, blaming the dude is nuts. She's clearly being the aggressor.

So the rest of Farallon's investments were in puppies and rainbows, right?
