There's no usage of food dyes in the Homesteading forum threads.

Bans red dye No 3 and other harmful chemicals that are in our food.

Our food is poison and we need to enact strict laws ending this shit across the US just like Europe and Canada have done.
Eat real food. Meat + Veggies + whole grains. You're done.

It's like nudists, Leisher. They aren't the ones you want to see naked.

The good ones can be subtle.

The ones on the verge of ruin need to pull out all the stops.

CA creates Ebony Alert for missing black kids.

Seems unnecessary and divisive for no reason.

And I bet a dollar that unlike amber alerts, you don't be able to turn them off.

Wait, what? Why not just leverage the existing system?

Close to DC? One's money goes farther in MD?

Honestly, CAs should be livid about government officials representing them who don't even live in the state.

I totally assume it's this. But still, why aren't you living in the place you "represent"?

I'm sure you've all seen how the homeless have mysteriously disappeared from SF, and Gavin Newsome is taking credit for it saying, "When company is coming over you clean up." Xi is visiting this week.

Well, someone set fire to massive homeless encampment in LA. Coincidence?

Not saying the CA government did it. I'm more wondering if someone booted out of SF did it or an LA resident seeing SF get cleaned up decided to do the same.

I just don't understand the rationale behind "We clean up when the chinese visit, but fuck you full time residents"

Because they genuinely do not give a fuck about us.

SF already did this, the year I arrived in the Bay Area, for the Super Bowl. It just costs money. Doing this permanently would be be like cleaning your car everyday instead of on date night :lol:

Instead of cleaning they should try actually solving the problem of why there are so many homeless.

Raised minimum wage for fast food employees to $20/hr.

Pizza Hut responds by laying off 1200 or so drivers.

Want delivery? Call Uber Eats or DoorDash.

Enjoy your higher prices and higher delivery fees. Oh, and don't forget to pre-tip super high if you want your food to arrive warm and untampered!

"I have no skills, but want to be paid as if I do have them. I want to do the bare minimum, or maybe even less, but get paid as if I put forth an effort to improve myself."

Oh, also:

“The money they are giving us as severance pay is a slap on the face,” a longtime Pizza Hut driver told Business Insider on condition of anonymity, referring to the $400 the driver was offered in severance pay. “It comes to $3 a month for nine-plus years of service.”

Because unskilled/educated people deserve more.
