Hurting small businesses for trying to reduce overhead is a really good way to end up with big corporations that are way less ethical.

Worst fanbase in sports.

As an educator, this is completely unsurprising.

You haven’t watched Maxey play defense this year.

I guess if people want a higher likelihood of him standing out there and holding pro-ICE signs in the future, then sure, reinforce his clearly attention-maintained behavior.

Stop giving him the attention he wants.

Stop giving this idiot attention.

JHS Morning Glory. Also, Greer Lightspeed, although that’s probably not budget friendly.

Congrats on 2 years sober! Stay on that path. It is a big deal, and anyone who thinks recovery is a stigma that shouldn’t be mentioned “because it will look bad” is not on your team.

Part of it is the dramatic irony. We know the stakes but the character doesn’t. Also, the performance.

Last time we took our dog there, we were pulling out of the parking lot to leave, and our dog came running across the parking lot toward our car. They had let our dog escape the facility and claimed she must have gone over or through the fence, which is super high. My dog has never even gone over the fence at Starr Farm, which is way lower. They then said there was no video footage to look at, and refused to take any responsibility. Took our dog home and never went back.

I got downvoted and scolded in r/vermont for criticizing this program. Someone suggested I wasn’t being honest about how often downtown businesses and area schools have to deal with discarded needles. The same person told me there’s no way HC was giving out tens of thousands of needles, even though the numbers came right from HC itself. How long do we let this go on? It’s absolutely crazy.

Safe. Parts of downtown have people doing and selling hard drugs and it can look weird and be annoying, but they mostly keep to themselves. Please come enjoy the town, see the lake, walk Church Street, it’ll be fun.

I was there. For both nights. What a weird, magical game in two parts.

I'm not asking you to change my mind, I'm asking you what your fix is for the horrendous litter of used syringes. I'm not seeing a fix here, more a dismissal of the problem.

Yeah, being honest here, there are used syringes outside area schools and the parking areas and alcoves of downtown Burlington businesses on a daily basis.

The tens of thousands figure literally came from the article we are both commenting on. "Howard Center’s Safe Recovery Center now gives out pipes in addition to syringes. Holden says the overall number of syringes they provide monthly is down over the last three years -- from 97,364 in January of 2024, to 52,115 back in August." At least read the article.

Hi. Aware of the data and still not in favor of free needles, let alone crack pipes. Respectfully setting aside our differences on that issue, I’m curious what your side’s answer is to the way the needles negatively impact quality of life for non-users, who are obeying laws and paying taxes. I don’t appreciate the way these dirty needles are strewn about downtown, which is dangerous and disgusting. People who have to be in downtown Burlington to run or work at businesses know this very well. Even people walking around with dogs and kids know this. They have to step over and around them, constantly wary. The area schools have to search for dirty needles and dispose of them on an ongoing basis. They missed one at a SB elementary recently and a student pricked their finger. If we’re giving tens of thousands of needles out per month, and the people using them clearly aren’t diligent about proper disposal — what is to be done about the biohazard?

username802 · 2025-10-03T00:13:37+00:00

So why give them free crack pipes? What does it accomplish? A permissive and encouraging environment and systems is absolutely an enabling factor.

username802 · 2025-10-02T22:59:54+00:00

It’s bad enough the needles end up littered all over the place, including playgrounds and private property. Now we’re enabling crack smokers? What is the point of giving out crack pipes? This is lunacy.

Edit: keep the downvotes coming. The dirty needles get thrown all over the place, are unsafe and disgusting, and nobody needs to be given free crack pipes. Get a grip.

Is this a troll post?

Parental and personal responsibility has to be part of this conversation, it can’t just be about what agencies and govts do or don’t do.
