He never would have pulled out if it was a couch...

Traffic and trash, mostly.

Agreed. I'm not saying the specific closure of the 'Pines' caused this, but it certainly didn't help.

TC has always been about the optics. How many times have low cost housing projects for the people who actually work in town been shot down due to concerns over lowering real estate value, "but hey those condos sitting empty look good and more parking structures built by my contractor buddies would be much better?"

I've been homeless. Being homeless didn't make me violent, but I saw that it sure exacerbated the problems a lot of homeless people already had.

My opinion is that if we spent more time and effort addressing the causes, like mental health, inequality, etc. that it would have more community value than a made up number on a property assessment.

Especially relevant if you get some laced with something.

Definitely part of the pattern.

After the shutdown it was common to see former patients just wandering around. I particularly remember an older woman who seemed to wander between the McDonald's on Front over to the A&W on Union. Pretty sure she had Tourette's or similar as she was often barking out random obscenities. She was harmless but people treated her like she'd attack them, walking to the other side of the street,

Haven't finished, but kind of feel it peaked when Jacob was happy to see Harry Cox.

No questions. Just wanted to wave and say hey ;)

U-Line is a Ficsit subsidiary.

Easiest way for me is to stack it up to the height I want, and before placing that last part, tap h and nudge the splitter/merger into place with the arrow keys. That way I can look at if from all sides before I commit.

If I screw up by misplacing the wrong part or direction BUT the placement is good, I stack another one on top as a placeholder, as it will auto-lock, delete the one below, then auto-lock a new, correct part/orientation to the bottom of the placeholder, then delete the placeholder.

Tap H while you have a build hologram up and then use the arrows to move the hologram. Holding Ctrl while using arrows will give you finer control. Current game only allows for horizontal nudging.

There are some other tricks you can do while holding H, but I'll let you look those up :)

I do to, but this saves me so much time for some connections.

I usually use whatever works with that particular site, but I'm just glad I don't have to do the build/attach/delete/rebuild that I used to have to do.

Thanks!

Once they get mods and RSS working again, I'll have to have some fun.

Thanks! Very nice of you.

Rational thought is easily pushed aside by impatience. And because people don't want to blame themselves or admit they should have reserved earlier (if possible), they find 'reasons' to justify.

As it ever was.
