Article 1: county refuses to reopen warming shelters despite snow and ice covering city and temperatures haven’t been above 32°f in a week and warming shelters had record usage during the storm. Says they “can’t open unless temp goes below 25 or there’s an inch of snow coming down or it’s below 32 and raining an inch”.
Article 2: heartwarming emergency personnel save a hecking doggo from too much smow.
God damn America, that’s in the Bible.
Warming centers for Pell grant recipients who operate a small business in a low income community for at least 3 years.
They do have warming centers but since people can’t bring their stuff in, as soon as it hits 35F they shut it down and hopefully everyone found storage or something like there days ago before they first got there
- police are arresting people for offering shelter to freezing unhoused people
- millions of Tesla owners are stranded because their car doesn’t suck the juice in below freezing weather
I wonder what the logical conclusion of these assorted factoids could be…
oof yeah jesus :amerikkka:
in my area at least I’ve never heard of warming centers refusing to open, but it’s also cold as fuck here most of the winter
its one of those moments where the still functioning bits of safety net collide with the ones that no longer exist/maybe never did and so you get emergency response going the extra mile but absolutely no care for chronic societal issues because those are the bad people ™
oof yeah jesus
closing warming centers so that people burn the flag to stay warm so you can arrest them for more private prison labor
God damn America, that’s in the Bible.
America prefers the parts of the bible which are about being mindless bigots and genociding Amalekites

This reminds me of that “Inside people and Outside people” stand-up bit.
