over 2 hours? sheesh,

good points but what you don't factor in is humans need to survive for a good climate to be of any value.
What good is a good climate if millions have to starve or freeze to death to achieve it?
People have to have jobs. jobs and life both require energy and energy NOW and in the future. the changes some are trying to make are to sudden ,to drastic, and to expensive.

and 1 volcano eruption can wipe out years of progress of getting smog out of the air.
1 nuke in the hands of a terrorist can wipe out a large area of civilization.

As much as I despise joe biden, i wouldn't wish cancer on him.it is 1 of the cruelest, and most difficult ways for a person to die. false hopes, meds that cost 1000's and then, weakness and suffering beyond comprehension. and death, and the family has a front row seat not of their choice to watch it all unfold

this is 1 of the more civilized and useful post you have made, I hope leo , the syd 1, can read and learn. because he just seems to be a muck raker.

I can't beleive anyone let their lawn get in a shape the edgeing was this difficult but at least when i do it on my paying jobs, I don't mess with the hand tools,I go straight for the gas powered stick edger, i do notice this guy "cleans up," the edge with the string trimmer.

I can't find the link but I read earlier that the democrats are already scheming ways of causing trouble for Trump and they aint even elected yet. It proves the countries problems are not their priority's going into office.

Well, I will admit, leo has no moral or legal obligation to do a damn thing in society. BUT you would think as critical as he is of things and people, and high and mighty as he acts, that he would actually want to do something to help achieve world peace. But no, he just sits in his basement with drool running down his chin while black mold grows on the walls.All the while calling himself typing on his Amiga 1200. And with all that going on it is raining outside and his mother is upstairs hollering the porridge and skim milk is ready. so yea, he does nothing for world peace,

Slight difference in those folks that flew in to help you and the folks that swim the river into our country.
Those fireman came with the full intentions of helping your country in a time of need. And yes I hope you do appreciate it.
But the river swimmers that come to America, simply want to take a job that a American could do, send the money home and rinse and repeat. while their wives and kids use up our resources meant for citizens needing help. in other words, no intentions or desires to help America or it's people but only themselves.

actually I was talking about our resident leo the smart ass ,not the catholic leo.

Some of that free canadian health care we hear so much about.
Sounds more like murder to me,

Well, I can't say all that but it would have been a interesting read had it been real, and there have been some folks that got it that others doubted deserved it. frankly even joe biden did more for world peace than leo.

ananas,would you give me some clue as to how I fucked up when all i did was said there was nothing there and leo's shit was fake?

I didn't fall for anything dumbass, I went to the link you posted, found nothing about it, and said so, and you reposted the same damn link. then come up with some shit story.
Trump has done more for world peace than you have leo.

That is not a legit prize, something you made up.

play it a little louder for those in the back!

yea, it's water under the bridge, nothing we can change now. Just live with the embarrassment as a country that 1 of our first ladies was not really a lady after all in this case.

The socialist can't even stay out of simple town hall meetings.
BUT considering what they are dealing with as far as bus riders,A group of looney toon characters may need to stop in and bring some brains to the operation.
"“We would have to take two and three buses just to get to where we want to go — and that’s unfair,” Clarke said."
It's a free fucking ride you dumbass! what do you expect? A fucking limo?

I have arthritis. typing ,which I took in high school, used to be easy for me to do, but not anymore. Besides, this is a fucking porn site ,not a meeting of english majors.

Keep your perfect stuck up english over there! most people can read and understand what I said.


Grok AI,
question, "What do you call a snob that finds fault in everything you say and do?"
answer
A faultfinder (or nitpicker, carper, or captious critic).
Someone who acts superior while constantly pointing out flaws in what you say and do is commonly called a faultfinder—a person given to harsh, often petty or unreasonable criticism. Closely related everyday terms include:

Nitpicker: Someone who obsesses over minor, unimportant details and finds fault everywhere.
Carper: A habitual complainer who finds things to object to, often querulously and without strong reason.
Captious (person/critic): Marked by an ill-natured tendency to stress faults and raise objections.
Hypercritic or censorious type: Excessively or captiously critical, often with a judgmental edge.

When the superiority/snobbery angle is strong (looking down on others while criticizing), terms like supercilious critic, sniffy faultfinder, or simply a judgmental snob also fit. “Cynic” can apply in cases with a sneering, distrustful tone, though it’s broader.
These words capture the mix of haughty superiority and relentless fault-finding better than a generic “critic.”

I found nothing in the news about it for 2026,only stuff I found was 2025,

Good thing we declared independence from them 250 years ago, or we would be in worse shape ourselves as they would have drug us down with them

Ah, so when i spit out my colgate in the mornings,and it goes thru the septic tank and bank into the soil and into the river, the local town gets it! Great, what else can I put in their water? Maybe that's why they have shit for brains? my septic tank! of course now iran is hacking our city and town water systems so it may not matter much longer

Those pipes should have been fixed decades ago but most of the towns with those isues are democrat led and they tend to spend money on other things until the toilets stop flushing.A local town has just finished replacing all it's underground pipe and boy that was a undertaking for even this tiny town, I would hate to think how much effort and money it will take to fix detroit for example

The water in the school I was in during first grade or so had a "sweet" taste and we were told it was the fluoride, now this was in the early 70's so things may be different now.

Another "bright idea" has made us all dumber. I remember the nasty tasting water at our elementary school. Best I can remember way back when it was much higher than it is now as far as the amount.
A National Toxicology Program report indicates that fluoride levels above 1.5 mg/L are associated with lower IQ in children, exceeding the recommended 0.7 mg/L standard in U.S. water. While the EPA reviews these findings, public health groups continue to support standard community water fluoridation. Read the full update from the EPA at epa.gov.


Could explain the explosion of dumbass liberals? just had to toss that in for Annanas!

You know,so far the real elephants in the room on this,you haven't even acknowledged.
America was built on small bussiness. Mom and pop stores and smaller chain stores will loose alot of bussiness and stock to these city "owned" stores and it will probably result in closures and lost jobs. the very thing that creates poverty.

Thus taking away choices for people of where to shop,and prompting travel to further locations, creating traffic,polution and etc.

Fauchi=felchy don't look to happy does he?

I remember the wars that happened during my lifetime, some did not go well. Others did. but politicians lost them ,vietnam for sure.

not alot of difference, just larger numbers.

Like a revenuer, he probably would never come back down the mountain.

Well, that alexa talking about nursing school, simple, it is going thru his computer or phones browser history and probably saw where he was in "class" or taking a test.
I had considered getting 1 for the shop so I could ask it questions like ,"whats the spark plug gap for a certain engine or something but the more I learn, the less I trust

yea, the ai thing is just beyond stupid, needs GONE or at least a separate place off to the side away from people that are at least Real.

I hang a big bug zapper outside on a porch post and sit back on the swing and watch those pesky little bastards fly into the danger zone and become ashes ,hehehee

not much we can do about it. the only alternative is to be a box before the wrinkles and blubber show up.
I was once skinny but those days left during my 20's.
Since heart issues came along, gotten worse.
Just enjoy the memory's of mammarys and find other ways to enjoy life.

Yea but when the hard dick is hidden under a belly and waddled legs it is not going any where wet and pink any time soon.

Shows how little folks understand retail. No way in hell new york can buy more pinto beans in a can that Walmart over the course of a year. or much else for that matter.
Buying in bulk does save, but that idea is already in use for most all business's in America.
Have you saw any pubic owned building suitable for grocery store use? Not many around.
Less inventory, only staples? Ha who are you kidding? So you are saying the serfs can just eat beans and carrots and a occasional potato when the city gets them on sale? I can just see that working well. People are to lazy now to cook like folks did when the government actually gave out cheese and flour. that won't work.
The store better carry microwave meals and coffee beans and steaks for all the rich people driving to town to save money on groceries. OH ,rich people shouldn't buy at the community store? That is discrimination. that is not legal. Rich people have the right to save money as much as poor people do.
No profit? the damn stores are going to have to cover their own operating cost or the city will go bust. DUH.

Ok, if so, prove it,
I ask Grok, Is Trump fascist,
Clearly NO,

"No. Donald Trump is not a fascist by any rigorous historical or definitional standard of the term.
What fascism actually means
Fascism is a specific 20th-century ideology, not a generic insult for “right-wing person I dislike” or “authoritarian-leaning populist.” Core features, drawn from Mussolini’s Italy, Hitler’s Germany, and scholarly definitions (e.g., Paxton, Griffin, Payne):

Single-party dictatorship that abolishes competitive elections and independent institutions.
Explicit rejection of liberal democracy, individual rights, and parliamentary government in favor of the leader and the state as the highest values.
Corporatist economic control in which the state directs private enterprise toward national power goals, not free markets.
Cult of violence, militarism, and often racial hierarchy as organizing principles.
Total mobilization of society under a revolutionary nationalist ideology that seeks to remake the nation through continuous struggle.

Trump does not meet these criteria.
Trump’s record vs. the definition

He won two elections under the existing U.S. constitutional system, left office after losing in 2020 (despite disputing the result and the January 6 riot), and is again running within the same system. Fascists do not leave power voluntarily or accept the possibility of electoral defeat.
He has not created a one-party state, banned opposition parties, or abolished Congress, independent courts, or free press. U.S. institutions constrained him throughout his first term; he operated inside them.
His economic approach has been broadly pro-business, deregulatory, and tax-cutting—closer to conventional American conservatism or mercantilist nationalism than to fascist corporatism.
Rhetoric can be bombastic, nationalist, and personalistic. Criticisms of media, “deep state,” and political opponents are often intemperate. That is not the same as systematically dismantling democratic institutions or installing a totalitarian party-state.
January 6 was a violent riot and an attempt to pressure the certification process. It was ugly and anti-democratic. It was not a fascist coup with coordinated paramilitaries seizing state power; the military and most institutions held.

Calling every strong nationalist, protectionist, or anti-establishment politician “fascist” empties the word of meaning. The same inflation has been applied to many figures across the spectrum when convenient.
Why the label is still widely used
Opponents deploy it as a moral intensifier: it signals that Trump is uniquely dangerous and beyond normal political disagreement. Some point to his admiration for “strong” leaders, immigration hard line, or personality cult among supporters. Those are real features of his politics; they do not make him a fascist. Supporters counter that the charge is primarily a tool to delegitimize a disruptive populist who challenges elite consensus on trade, immigration, and cultural issues.
If the question is whether Trump is authoritarian-leaning, norm-breaking, or polarizing, reasonable people can debate degrees. If the question is whether he is a fascist in the historical sense, the answer is no. Using the term loosely makes it harder to identify actual fascism when it appears.

new york sheesh!

Complaining about not getting any free stuff!

"Coming to Europe is about taking -- or more appropriately, plundering.

To believe that masses of Muslims are coming to Europe because they genuinely need help or plan to assimilate, living peacefully among a diversity of cultures and other peoples, is to be breathtakingly ignorant of history.

This is funny in more than 1 way. Everyone thinks ICE is racist, but this is no mexican, this is a canadian that overstayed their paperwork and is getting sent back to canada. Slapped a young girl for simply wearing a patriotic shirt.
Hope her dumbass husband that whined about Trump and his family goes with her. IF canada will even take him.
of course they took all of our draft dodgers so they must not be very picky.

They shouldn't be taxing the rich to feed the cheap scates that will take advantage of the cheaper grocerys. do you think ONLY poor people will go there? Yea right. there will be more Cadi's and Beamers in the parking lot than bicycles I can assure you.
The system hasn't worked well anywhere else and no 1 with good sense can see it working here.

You know momsdummie the mayor released a million landlords names and address's so that they could be harassed don't you? how the hell is that even legal?

jealousy, he is in a leaky basement somewhere in europe and hasn't saw sunshine since Nixon era. He couldn't handle America if he actually came here, he wouldn't know how to act.

Yea, no Ai needed to show it's mess

These are results for taxpayer funded discount grocery stores,how well do they work
Search instead for tax payer funded discount grocery stores,how well do they work
AI Overview
Taxpayer-funded discount grocery stores lower prices for shoppers, but they shift the true cost to the public and face severe operational challenges. They rely on government subsidies rather than traditional profit models to function.
How the Model Works

Subsidies and Savings: Proponents argue that by exempting stores from rent and property taxes or using direct public funds, municipal stores can slash prices on core staples like produce, meat, and milk by roughly 30%.
Public-Private Partnerships: Plans like New York City's proposed pilot program rely on the city owning the location while private or nonprofit operators handle day-to-day sourcing and fulfillment using public "affordability payments" to cover losses.
Historical Precedents: Small-scale municipal or government-operated grocery experiments—such as those attempted in rural or struggling towns like Baldwin, Florida, and Caney City, Texas—frequently struggled to stay out of the red and ultimately closed or were sold back to private owners due to mounting debt.

Key Criticisms and Risks

Indirect Tax Burdens: Critics and economists point out that the discounts are an illusion; shoppers save at the register, but taxpayers fund the deficits, overhead, and initial startup costs through public funds.
Unfair Competition: Privately owned local bodegas and independent supermarkets operate on razor-thin margins (1% to 2%). Critics argue that government-backed stores enjoying free rent and subsidies can artificially undercut private businesses, potentially forcing neighborhood competitors out of the market.
Inefficiency and Scale: Government-run or heavily subsidized models often struggle to match the massive supply-chain efficiencies, bulk-buying power, and logistics management of major commercial supermarket chain

why hasn't this worked anywhere else in the country?
And who is covering the missing 30% of retail? the taxpayers? Who pays taxes? every one.
And did you read the story a week ago about how they were going to require id before you could shop there to be sure you were a new yorker? and boy did they catch hell about that 1. Don't want voter id but gota show id to buy grocerys.

what I am curious to see is when people rob these city owned stores how the law reacts. do they arrest the thief or reward them somehow?

shoulda let ice do their job.

I thought he was talking about california

I think there is a new name already picked out for mamodomi's new grocery store chain, 9-Eleven convenience store, home of the little gulp!
