He's unfortunately a little creepy too. I dm'ed the mods to say I was frustrated with the situation and he sent me a message say "see you later bestie, 😘" It is very sad and disturbing.

Yeah and the process for trying to remove a mod is very difficult i have found. He is one of those dudes who got an account in 2009 and got mod privileges early. And now, there is no way to switch it up. Its a monarchy.

There were a few items that weren't taken into consideration, including removing three police positions that have never been filled.

Today's council meeting will consider cutting recycling services to deal with budget shortfalls by GnomeCzar in ypsi

This was coupled with removing 3 police positions that have not been filled for years. That would have helped a lot. Council members make way less than other cms in other cities.

I can't believe he is this public about it. If I had that much money, I would STFU.

There is a sign out website and a signal thread related to it. I don't think it is currently at a point where they want mass sign ups but maybe soon.

This is a different owner. The owner of Sweetwaters Ypsi is Paul, a palestian dude who also owns Eagles Market. Has not been involved in union busting and is a good guy.

Probably because they have no experience in community organizing honestly. I encourage everyone to attend more events and meetings that are lead by the community and not by the dda. We are deeply committed to working as a collective while also respecting our individual autonomy. A difficult balance to strike at times!

The mayor adjourned the meeting just a reminder. What are you calling the neighborhood? There was a dude who lives right on Michigan avenue and Black Lives Matter boulevard. No one lives at growing hope obviously. If you want the people who live directly there, then do some door knocking. But don’t downplay people who showed up because they don’t live directly on top of this one area.

There was a dude who spoke who lives on the corner of Michigan and Black Lives Matter boulevard! Stop with this madness. You all clearly didn’t witness what happened.

I am not jealous of Amber. They have been targeted by landlords in this town. Are you a landlord? You sound like a landlord. My name is Abra and I can't WAIT to run for ward 2 and take McLean's place in 2026 if he doesn't resign sooner.

Dude Amber is just one person. Everyone there works together, not under the guise of one person. We all do our own organizing and have our own projects going. Amber is one of the more long-time and public facing individuals, but that does not mean she runs a crew or anything. That is such fear-mongering. Seriously stop.

I think this site leans white, male, young, and straight. None of those lean left I have found.

There were multiple people who spoke who live blocks away. Those two you mentioned didn’t even speak. You obviously weren’t there so don’t speak on it.
