I've heard tales from the elders of uncontacted tribes living as far west as Pittsfield, but I assume that's just a myth, nobody could survive that far from the hub.

In Boston, 495 is the western edge of society, there's nothing between there and Chicago. West of 128 is kind of a no-man's land, there's stuff out there but it's dark and scary out that way so it's best to stay closer to the village where the dark creatures of the western woods will be too afraid of all the bright lights of the city.

American products aren't made in America, they are made by China

Why do I have to bring up politics when talking about a purely political issue?

This ordinance is important to them because it makes it harder for immigrants to settle in the area, which is what this is all about in the first place. This is classic racist republican fuckery right here

They lost the ability to legislate who you can marry so this is their next move.

As others have said, mountain climbing in the winter is dangerous, but there's plenty of ways you can safely enjoy the white mountains without climbing one of them.

The white mountains are breathtakingly beautiful in the snow whereas the cape is a summer destination, so it has very little appeal this time of year.

In America, mental health is only for the rich. We used to have public mental health facilities, but the government just kept diverting their funding until these places couldn't exist anymore. There's no profit in taking care of mentally ill people who have no insurance and no family to cover the bill, so it will always be a back burner issue.

There's also the common belief that never going to a doctor and being diagnosed with a mental illness is the same as not having one. It's like saying that you know for a fact that you don't have cancer despite never being checked for it. Thanks to this, I think it's safe to say that the vast majority of people who suffer from treatable mental illnesses have no idea they have one and would not be very open to the idea of accepting it. My father is a prime example of this, very clearly suffers from depression the same way I do, but "I'm not crazy, so why should I go to a shrink?", so despite having top notch health care, he won't be taking anti-depressants or talking to a therapist any time soon.

Or maybe we follow Florida's lead and offer free bus rides from Kensington to Orlando.

Whichever mayor finally decides to stop ignoring Kensington isn't gonna have a whole lot of time for anything else.

There's never been more than a tiny handful of congressmen and senators who come from a working class family in a rough area. "The feds" are mostly rich suburban white guys who believe that all homeless people are only living on the street because they're too lazy to get a job.

Not in the city, but the Perkiomen Valley Brewery in Green Lane (about half an hour drive from the city) is not only great for kids but they're also specifically set up for kids with Autism to be comfortable while the rest of their family enjoys a fun day out. They have special toys and stuff as well as weighted blankets and a sound proof isolation room. They even have an adult sized motorized adjustable height changing table in one of the bathrooms.

If they opened one at Weirs Beach, all the local restaurants wouldn't last a week.

Fuck FIFA, and fuck Quatar

I'd like to see how long someone could drive around the city with no plate at all. My guess is until they run into a Sheriff deputy or a state trooper.

What does that make Chuck Berry?

They said "in the Walmart" and there is a McDonald's inside the Walmart separate from the standalone one in the same plaza.

Or the one on it's own across the parking lot.

There's plenty of places to get a slice of pizza, just not as many that are owned by multi-billion dollar corporations.

I fixed one for a friend of mine. He said most of the lights didn't work. I opened it up and found that a bunch of the LEDs in the front panel were never even wired up.

It looked like a big steel box but it was actually a thin sheet of aluminum over a particle board box and inside it was a tiny circuit board and nothing else.

For those without a car, the NJT Atlantic City train goes along the southern edge of the Pine Barrens, you could take your bike on the train, get off at Hammonton NJ and be riding in the Pine Barrens after a few miles.

You can camp on any PA State Forest land as long as you're at least 150 feet from any trail or water. You don't need a permit either.

There's one along the Schuylkill River Trail just before Reading, I went bike camping there a few years ago.

Somebody's brother in law's company got a sweet contract handed to them.

In Texas you'll often find yourself behind a big F-450 dualie pickup without a scratch in the bed and no 5th wheel hitch.
