The people who already opened Muddy Waters were trying to do a GoFundMe for what is now Bird on the Run? I don't remember that.

I'm in squirrel hill now and it's been a very minor disruption to my life if any. That's not in any way justifying the atrocious and evil behaviors taking place.
Depending on your work and income some other similar neighborhoods are Shady side, point breeze, parts of east liberty (quickly becoming an attractive spot). All of these have $$$ as a caveat

A home is something people need to survive, it is not at all comparable to a latte and should not be priced as such.
HUD programs are great when they are funded and managed properly, but a big issue right now is that those vouchers can not be used in all areas and can be denied by any landlord. There is a massive shortage of available units for users of the voucher programs because of stigma, discrimination, and poor management of the system that oversees existing HUD properties.

$3 for a pizza delivery driver usually isn’t a tip, it’s an insult. Especially for a 15 min drive, or an order around $100.
I usually go 20% for everything.

Maybe both things can be true at the same time, that it's a poor choice of wording and that this destructive and unacceptable behavior must be addressed.

Have eaten Nick's food via catering on three, separate, occasions. All three were incredible. Will gladly support if he can get the restaurant open in Bloomfield.
Apteka gets all the credit they deserve and I've sold hop starts to Tom a few years ago.
This notoriety is earned and hopefully it gives the winner something they need.

The one in Uniontown is a nightmare. Then again, there’s not many places in Uniontown that aren’t a nightmare.

I can't imagine how much messier that intersection would be if there was a PRT stop right there, holy cow

What? I will gladly pay for good food at fair prices. I don't understand your tone here.

I can’t believe how entitled drivers have become!!! Just because there is a road and u r in a car, does NOT mean u have the right of way any which way, all the time bc pedestrians are on foot and the “road is meant for cars, after all, and u have responsibility to try to avoid being hit by one.” I am citing what one woman told me when I had similar scuffle on-line few months ago on the topic. (I was banned from the chat, people were up ganging up on me siding with that woman!) bc they could not accept my statement that drivers are responsible for making sure they don’t hit anyone while driving. (Apparently if it is night, dusk, bad weather and u are not wearing or having ur kid wear a flashing leash (wtf is that?) or if the child dashes (like dashes the road to get on the school bus), everyone felt it would be the parent’s fault and not the driver—who has the right of way with this all being a “road accident”) So I am glad I am seeing these comments bc I fing don’t think I should be putting a fuing “flashing leash” on my child for having him cross a street to get on a school bus.

People downtown have just been blatantly driving through red lights lately.

Yes that's correct.. I meant to type with only having to pay 1%. Also, didn't realize it's 1.5%, been a while since I lived there.

I'm confused my what you mean by "without having to pay 1% of your income."
The city's EIT is 3%, Bellevue is 1.5%, and the surrounding communities are all at 1%.

I tip but am pissed every time. It should be like Europe. Pay your people so I don't have to. I paid already for my overpriced dinner. And I work harder for the community and don't get tipped. I'm bitter about it.

> Nah, your human right is access to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We went so far as to put that in our constitution.
Um, yeah, that's not in the Constitution. That was the Declaration of Independence, which was written by the Continental Congress, ironic since it consisted of a bunch of white property owners.
That document really doesn't have much to do with our current government which came into its own in 1789 under the actual Constitution.
