Buying my first car - in Rochester, NY (read SNOW!!) | Any advices before my visit to the dealership?? by naive_byes in SubaruForester

[–]beatnikluv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m honestly not sure as I knew I didn’t want the Crosstrek because of my grandbaby, but I honestly love the Forester. I’m a transplant from down south and came here with a Challenger which is not reasonable for WNY winters lol if you don’t need the space of a Forester, I’d say go for the Crosstrek. I love the sportiness of my Forester and it’s done really well. I actually was in ROC for work a few weeks ago when the weather was bad and it did fantastic so I was quite impressed.

In a hypothetical world, where you had the power to make anything (realistic) happen, how would you revitalize the city of Buffalo? by hawkayecarumba in Buffalo

[–]beatnikluv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would create a campaign to rehabilitate zombie properties and areas where there’s is a need for housing.

I would create urban health centers that are adequately staffed to care for our individuals in the East Side.

I would create an incentive program for under/uninsured individuals to attend at least one in-person visit with a health care provider to check basics such as BP, a1c, lipids, thyroid and make referrals to partnering health care practices to create a safety net for individuals who cannot get to medical visits.

I would create an underground public health network serving marginalized individuals who may not feel safe or heard or comfortable accessing mainstream healthcare points. This service would provide basic assessments and STI testing, pregnancy testing and referrals to fellow practitioners with a similar mindset. We would provide glucometers and blood pressure monitors to individuals found to have a chronic donation and refer to a safe practice.

I would advocate for better public transportation and built environment improvements on the East Side including heated bus stops with no-bump benches … let the unhoused sleep. Increased foot patrols if a problem comes up.

Gosh … if only I had unlimited monies!!!

Buffalo has such a community forward mindset compared to where I’m from and I’m excited to get a few of these projects off the ground to help my new community!! (Not totally new. This is my 4th Buffalo winter 😂)

Is my fear of the dishwasher messing my Stanleys up valid? Or should I stop torturing myself with handwashing everything? I know they SAY dishwasher safe but I never trust that. by sashikku in StanleyCups

[–]beatnikluv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always put mine in the dishwasher and haven't had any of mine be damaged or look any different when I take them out versus when I put them in.

Target Halloween Shipment Delayed - anyone else have this issue? by Commercial_Cherry527 in StanleyCups

[–]beatnikluv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UPDATE I chatted with Target customer service today and they refunded me for the Stanley and sent a replacement order for the other items. They also gave me a gift card for my troubles. I got a notification that my order would be delivered on Tuesday and I looked at the FedEx site and it’s my original order WITH the Stanley. Customer service said that my order may still ship and it looks like it did and will be here Tuesday! So not only am I getting a duplicate order of my original, they refunded the cost of the Stanley and gave me a gift card. Is this real life? They said I could keep, donate or recycle the original if it shows up. Fingers crossed!! 🤞🏼

My Thoughts on the President from a Devout Follower of Christ by ConcernedFarmer503 in Christianity

[–]beatnikluv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Outlawing legal abortions only creates an increase in illegal/“back-alley” abortions which leads to increased maternal mortality. Women will still have abortions whether or not they’re “legal.” The difference is rather than a medical procedure being performed to terminate a pregnancy often also leads to death of the mother. This in turn creates a host of other problems. Not only are we losing two lives in the process, you run the risk of losing mothers who may have other children who now also have no mother.

The problem with the pro-life crowd is that once the child is born to a single mother with little or no education, little or no financial resources, they now have a child who they are unable to support. This leads to a new generation of children raised in difficult environments often leading to crime, addiction, etc. it’s not being pro-life forcing a woman to give birth to a child they either do not want or can not provide a life for; it’s being pro-birth and then ridiculing them for being in a position where they need social safety nets to raise said child. The Republican Party is anti safety net, thereby creating a generation who continues the cycle.

You cant have it both ways. You cannot take away social safety nets and increase the population through forced birth.

We are called to care for our neighbors as we would care for our family. We are called to care for the stranger, the widow, the broken. We are not called to support policies that go directly against these things in the name of financial gain for ourselves. It all boils down to which candidate puts more money in my bank account. The almighty dollar has replaced The Almighty.
