schestowitz[TR2]look around "moral and legal"Aug 29 08:04
schestowitz[TR2]he explained the differenceAug 29 08:04
Isambard_PrinceIt's very different.Aug 29 08:06
Isambard_PrinceFeeding homeless people is illegal because businesses think homeless people are unsightly.Aug 29 08:06
Isambard_PrinceThey don't want them hanging around asking for food.Aug 29 08:07
Isambard_PrinceThe problem of the homeless could easily be fixed, mostly.Aug 29 08:07
Isambard_PrinceIf the government spent a fraction of the war budget on the issue.Aug 29 08:07
Isambard_PrinceOr if they implemented policies that resulted in more job and housing opportunities in general.Aug 29 08:08
Isambard_PrinceThe government, during COVID, developed a "feed the sparrows through the horses" approach to homelessness.Aug 29 08:08
Isambard_PrinceIt cost a lot of money. Basically they put a bunch of money into paying back rent, or lodging them in hotels.Aug 29 08:09
Isambard_PrinceMore money than it would have cost to build permanent housing for them.Aug 29 08:09
Isambard_PrinceAnd now they are all homeless again.Aug 29 08:09
Isambard_PrinceFeed the sparrows through the horses is another way of saying "wealth trickles down".Aug 29 08:09
Isambard_PrinceFor the enormous cost of propping up the rich, the poor may get some too when it comes out the other end of the horse.Aug 29 08:10

Isambard_Princeschestowitz[TR2], I have the laptop in a storage bag with a Hot Shot No Pest strip in the trunk of my car.Aug 29 10:51
Isambard_PrinceI'm going to have to let it air out for a while after opening the bag, carefully.Aug 29 10:51
Isambard_PrinceThen clean the laptop well.Aug 29 10:51
Isambard_PrinceThe vapors from that strip should be enough to kill the roaches.Aug 29 10:52
Isambard_PrinceEventually they also die without water for a whil.Aug 29 10:52
Isambard_PrinceSo while they're being exposed to the vapors, they're also not getting any water in that bag.Aug 29 10:55
Isambard_PrinceI'll take the laptop down to the library for a while after it airs out and I clean it.Aug 29 10:55
Isambard_PrinceUse it outside at a picnic table and see if any roaches come crawling out.Aug 29 10:56

Isambard_PrinceThose no pest strips are bad stuff. You don't want to breathe anywhere near that bag when you go to open it.Aug 29 10:59
Isambard_PrinceOpen it outside, with gloves on. Where there's plenty of air.Aug 29 11:00
Isambard_PrinceAnd immediately run away from the bag before you breathe in.Aug 29 11:01
Isambard_PrinceLet the bag air out for a while, then come back and reach in with the gloves on, grab the pest strip, carry it to the dumpster.Aug 29 11:01
Isambard_PrinceCome back, get the laptop out of the bag, and let it air out for a few hours.Aug 29 11:01
Isambard_PrinceThen clean all the surfaces.Aug 29 11:01
Isambard_Princeschestowitz[TR2], I had Scabies twice and they didn't make me as miserable as cockroaches.Aug 29 11:03
Isambard_PrinceThe worst part of Scabies is convincing the doctor to prescibe something for it when permethrin cream is fairly harmless.Aug 29 11:03
Isambard_PrinceI blew $150 the first time seeing two doctors who wouldn't give me anything and said it was contact dermatitis.Aug 29 11:04
Isambard_PrinceWhich oddly went away when my mother handed me a couple tubes of permethrin cream and said oh by the way, Trent got that at his mother's house and came back and gave it to me, Brian, and Collin that week you were over for Thanksgiving.Aug 29 11:04
Isambard_PrinceTrent's mom was a big hoebag.Aug 29 11:05
Isambard_PrinceIt's not impossible to get Scabies without fucking someone and rubbing up against them, but that's a good way to get them.Aug 29 11:05
Isambard_PrinceI'm sure that while she was whoring around she got it and then everyone around her in the house got it.Aug 29 11:06
Isambard_PrinceThen so did mom and Brian. Then so did I.Aug 29 11:06
Isambard_PrinceScabbies is not an STD, but it's one way you can get it (skin to skin contact). It then spreads through households, institutions, etc. very easily.Aug 29 11:06

Isambard_PrinceI must have gotten it from walking around in my socks in their house.Aug 29 11:07
Isambard_PrinceIt started out on my ankles and started spreading down to my feet and up my legs.Aug 29 11:07
Isambard_PrinceAn attack by parasites makes you extremely depressed.Aug 29 11:08
Isambard_PrinceEspecially when you run into doctors who do not care and will not listen to you.Aug 29 11:08
Isambard_Princeschestowitz[TR2], The key when dealing with pests is to use the least harmful thing for you and pets.Aug 29 11:09
Isambard_PrinceSuspend is relatively safe after it dries because it requires so little active ingredient.Aug 29 11:10
