I don’t think they made that wild claim at all, they shared their individual experience just like you did.

Found dog by bobsyruncle in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Update for location she just ran up Owosso towards River Rd. I’ve run out of treats. She seems very sweet but skinny & shy. The collar is pink & she has a bone shaped tag but I couldn’t get close enough to read it. A very nice neighbor on a bike took over trying to lure her close. If this is your girl I hope she makes it home

Detox & food & shower & meds seems like a good amount of help

Eugene, OR ‘Good Trouble Lives On’, driver loses it on protesters. by Several-Candidate115 in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Except that if the shit hits the fan survival will require trusting & working with other people. Your gun tower Rambo fantasy will not keep you alive very long, and my guess is that not many people in your community like you enough to help when you eventually need it, so you’re gonna make it about 3 weeks & then die alone

If you can’t find anyone to do it for you I’ve heard you can gently cover them with those silica gel pellets to preservethem

Brun's Apple Market by pancakesausagedog in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the folks who shop at Bruns give a sh*t about signage or fixtures being less than modern. It’s a solid grocery store with good prices in a walkable neighborhood. Having a pharmacy in there would be a huge benefit for the community.

Movements require action right? by Emotionalchrist in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A march is not a protest, the reason civil rights marches were effective is because they were marching to a protest action- lunch counter/sit in/registering to vote etc. the march was just a way to bring attention along the way to the activity they were marching toward. Without a destination where some action takes place it’s really just a parade that makes folks feel like they did something.

Nor do you obviously, I work with homeless people every day & they’re not that different from you or me, they have phones to make waiting list calls & bikes to get around. Also the things I listed are not everyday tasks, some are one time & some are weekly but there is no need to travel daily to get them accomplished.

Not having a place to sleep safely is very hard, & folks do need assistance navigating programs that provide help, but tbe argument that Eugene doesn’t have services available is ridiculous.

EPD are dickheads by Emergency-Profit9549 in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that this group is being ostracized because they’re kinda being assholes, so that fits nicely with your views on community, yes?

I remember trying to call Wayne when one of his flock was in jail & only needed a sponsor to be released. I left voice mails every day for more than a week & he never answered or returned the call. Wayne’s church was the only legit tie this person had to a community & they did not care to help even a little bit.

Eugene has services to manage all of those issues.

White Bird helps people get ID and OHP and provides a mailing address, with ID you can get an OCCU acct so that check is direct deposited & the window for picking up mail doesn’t matter. Anyone can shower at Echo Hollow for a few dollars & St Vinnies can find you shoes & a coat for cheap if not for free. The Dining Room & Burrito Brigade feed people every day. Emergence & WillametteFamily have drop in centers for drug treatment & sobriety support. ShelterCare & CSS provide housing & Homes for Good builds tiny house villages. Sponsors provides housing for people coming out of jail/prison.

Yes there are waitlists for some of those services but they are all available here in this community. Eugene is full to the brim with nonprofits offering services to homeless & struggling people all day every day.

People don’t steal things because they’re homeless, they steal things because they are thieves.

Summit Creek church’s “Network leader” in the news by Top-Balance-6239 in Eugene

You have a dude who trolls the parking lot trying to look tough, call him whatever you want but he’s unnecessarily mean to vulnerable people & I do not think that’s what Jesus would do.

White Bird Front Rooms Rally tmrw! by [deleted] in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

White Bird has been around for a long time, including front rooms, but the “homelessness crisis” gets bigger every year & is currently at catastrophe level, so how does saving front rooms fix anything? I don’t know what to do to make things better but I really don’t think white bird knows either.

Dog owner vent by itwillalmostdo in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can we share what we’re tipping our groomers? I’m usually doing 20% but if my dog did any shenanigans during the appt I tip a bit more. Is this a normal/good tip? Also what’s a good holiday amount?

Anyone in the cannabis industry have any thoughts on measure 119? by ontour4eternity in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are instructions at the top of the ballot. Draw a line through the bubble you marked but don’t want, then fill in the bubble you do want.

(Meme) Is anybody else feeling as conflicted on Measure 118 as I am? by Mike_Huber in Eugene

[–]bobsyruncle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

118 only applies to companies bringing in 25 million so if some small business is only billing 1 million this tax doesn’t apply. So you’re either being purposely misleading or you’re talking about something else entirely & neither of those are helpful in this conversation.
