Uuuh sorry. I was distracted. What's this meme about?

I'm sorry but that's such a ploopy take. You can't just judge something by it's name 🙄

Just reminded me how racist the 90's were

This is part of why I'm planning on over saving for my downpayment. If I'm not paying less than my rent there's no way in hades I'll ever be able to afford repairs

I did some napkin math on my city's police budget once. The short version is that there was no correlation between the budget and crime rates. Crime was generally going down per capita and that was (seemingly) regardless of how much the budget was increased or decreased for a given year

Police don't prevent crimes, they just punish the poor and ignorant

Hippocratic Oath. So you turn off their life support obviously

Only 3%? Lucky

That's not really any different than lemmy

The bones are for soup

Don't forget the downpayment and the security deposit and first and last months rent. Oh and if you break the lease you have to pay 4 months rent or the remainder of the rental period, whichever is higher

Unfortunately the more regional stores and co-ops still have the old units. Which like, good for them for maintaining their stuff, but also it's kinda a pain lol

Sounds like the south to me

It takes you two hours to say fuck twice? I can do it in two seconds, loser

I think that applies in life more generally tbh. People who tend toward extremes don't handle nuance very well. Most of life is nuance

I mean maybe. A lot of people today aren't having children bc of the general state of things and concerns around climate factor into that

Does the graph include how palm farms are built on precious forest land that has since been burned down? and that the land primarily being burnt is some of the most important land for storing carbon and providing oxygen?

So language is this funny thing that organic creatures do. And organic creatures, being organic, change over time. So too does the things they do

That's a great point. I had a similar realization when riding one for the first time. It was something along the lines of capitalism "fixing" problems that it itself causes. Can't afford a car? Rent a scooter

Oh for sure. My deeper point is just that culture is a factor that never really comes up in these conversations and memes. So while yes, the pic is funny, and yes it's getting at the heart of the issue. That doesn't change the fact that some people just dont care and also doesn't change the fact that the transition period away from car dependency is awkward for a lot of people

Two things can be true. I live in a downtown area with plenty of open space for bike parking and kids will leave the rent bikes in the middle of wherever they want
