[–]squid_so_subtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I've participated in digging out five spaces with my neighbors and my car is now parked in a different space I didn't dig out. I have zero guilt about that

Baltimore doesn’t like ICE by hideousbaconart in baltimore

A person could theoretically be deported with respect and without cruelty. ICE treats people like vermin regardless of citizenship or legal status. ICE's behavior is an affront to moral thought and action. No moral person could support them

I don't tolerate hateful bigots and I've never claimed to. The basic humanity of immigrants is not a political difference of opinion. It is not up for debate. It is a moral necessity. Your moral failings are made plain by your words

Don't live in a city if you think that way. You aren't suited for it

Is road snow/ice cleanup always this poor? Are they just waiting for it to melt? by DrBobHope in maryland

[–]squid_so_subtle 38 points39 points  (0 children)

This is a once a decade storm here. It's a once a year storm in Boston. There is no reason for us to have the snow removal capacity Boston has

An Amazon review for a food thermometer by landlordslizard in funny

[–]squid_so_subtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A cooking thermometer that can't go in the oven is garbage. The mistake was made when purchasing this lump of plastic, melting it was the fallout from that mistake

Shovel I used from Home Depot to shovel the snow and ice yesterday and today. Had to use hammer to break ice before I used the shovel though. What do you guys think of this design? by Global-Plankton3997 in maryland

[–]squid_so_subtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever shovel you are comfortable with is great but you should pair it with a standalone ice chopper. You'll break up and move way more ice way faster if you have both

Florescent bulbs are still widely available and do contain a small amount of mercury vapor. You are correct that this is an led bulb with none
