  2. You’re so unbelievably ignorant. These are not my definitions you drooling imbecile. You’re such a disgusting, disgraceful boot licker. You like getting fucked by your government and asking them for nothing. You are a waste of flesh. Seriously.
  3. Idk where you’re living where a landlord has to replace refrigerators. That’s an exception not a rule. Example section 8, and public housing might but usually a landlord doesn’t have to replace a refrigerator
  4. A city is considered "walkable" when its design and infrastructure make it easy, safe, convenient, and enjoyable for people to travel on foot to meet their daily needs and for recreation. It's not just about having sidewalks; it's about a holistic approach to urban planning that prioritizes pedestrians. Here are the key factors that contribute to a city's walkability: 1. Proximity to Destinations (Mixed-Use Development): * Density: A higher concentration of people, buildings, and street life ensures that more destinations are within walkable distances. * Diversity of Land Use: The presence of a variety of amenities like shops, restaurants, schools, parks, healthcare facilities, and workplaces within a short walking distance (often cited as a 10-15 minute walk, or about 0.5 to 1 mile). This reduces the need for a car for daily errands. 2. Pedestrian Infrastructure (Quality and Connectivity): * Sidewalks/Footpaths: The presence, quality, width, and continuity of sidewalks are crucial. They should be well-maintained, even, and free of obstructions. * Street Network: A well-connected street grid with frequent intersections and smaller block lengths makes it easier to navigate and offers multiple routes, shortening distances. * Crosswalks and Traffic Calming: Safe and clearly marked pedestrian crossings, along with measures to slow down vehicle traffic (e.g., narrower streets, speed bumps), are essential for safety. * Lighting: Well-lit streets and pathways enhance safety and comfort, especially at night. * Shade and Green Spaces: Trees and green areas provide comfort, especially in hot climates, and improve the aesthetic appeal of the walk. 3. Safety and Comfort: * Traffic Safety: Low vehicle speeds, separation of pedestrians from high-speed traffic (e.g., buffered sidewalks), and safe crossing opportunities. * Personal Safety: Perceived safety from crime, which can be influenced by good lighting, active street fronts, and a sense of "eyes on the street." * Visual Appeal: Attractive storefronts, public art, well-maintained buildings, and a lack of large blank walls make a walk more enjoyable and interesting. * Accessibility: Features like curb cuts and ramps ensure walkability for people of all abilities, including those with disabilities, parents with strollers, etc. 4. Public Transit Integration: * Connectivity: Walkable areas often have good connections to public transportation, allowing people to combine walking with transit for longer journeys, further reducing car dependency. How is Walkability Decided/Measured? Walkability is assessed through a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods: * Walk Score: This is a widely known quantitative metric that assigns a score (0-100) to any address based on its proximity to various amenities (e.g., grocery stores, restaurants, schools, parks). It considers walking routes, block length, and intersection density. While useful, it doesn't always fully account for subjective factors like comfort, safety, or aesthetic appeal. * National Walkability Indexes: Organizations like the U.S. EPA develop national indices that rank areas based on factors like density, diversity of land uses, and proximity to transit. * Urban Planning Assessments: City planners and researchers use various metrics and surveys to evaluate walkability, including: * Intersection density: More intersections generally indicate a more connected street network. * Population and employment density: Higher densities typically mean more destinations are closer together. * Sidewalk coverage and condition: Assessing the extent and quality of pedestrian infrastructure. * Mix of land uses: Analyzing the variety of destinations within a given radius. * Pedestrian accident data: Objective measure of traffic safety for pedestrians. * Perceived safety surveys: Gathering feedback from residents on how safe and comfortable they feel walking. * "15-Minute City" Concept: This urban planning idea emphasizes that essential services and amenities should be accessible within a 15-minute walk or bike ride from residents' homes, effectively promoting highly walkable and livable neighborhoods. Ultimately, a truly walkable city is one where walking is not just an option, but often the preferred and most convenient way to get around, contributing to public health, environmental sustainability, and a vibrant community life. *answer provided and researched by Gemini AI
  5. Republican Senators blocking calls to release the Epstein files and are demanding to know where were the Democrats during the Biden administration with these calls? Democrats didn’t talk about the case non stop. Republicans and MAGA did. They’re the ones who made statements and wrote check that their asses couldn’t cash https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5406742-senate-republican-democrat-resolution-epstein-files/amp/
  6. This country makes neighborhoods around cars instead of people. We have free parking and out of control rents and housing prices. It’s ass backwards.
  7. Nothing is blocked. You’re just extremely slow. You don’t even know what you’re looking at because your brain is practically just goo slopping around inside your skull from huffing bleach.
  8. Nothing is blocked you pitiful thing, you. The last 2 lines in the first pic is directly continued in the second. Nothing is blocked. You’re just a pathetic whore for attention. Soon you’re going to have to look elsewhere to get it.
  9. “Waaahhh! I can’t make the machines agree with me, no matter how hard I try!” -Packard on AI as a research tool
  10. It was never an echo chamber. An echo chamber isn’t anything that proves you wrong and when you did use it, it didn’t prove you right. You’re just a hypocrite who decided to use something they criticized previously to prove someone didn’t say they weren’t doing something but you didn’t even prove that.
  11. Don’t let him sidetrack you with nonsense. He asked what was blocking the response. Nothing was blocking anything. His replies have nothing to do with shit. Even if he could multitask, which he can’t, it still takes him 18 minutes to read 6 paragraphs and that’s me being nice. It’s probably much longer than that.
  12. You jump right on it. You can’t help yourself. And do I doubt the guy saying, Coca Cola is putting sugar cane back into US products because Trump said so, can actually multitask? Yes. I do.
  13. I watched this. I don’t want to be the only one 🫠
  14. But if you must know that was a timer timing how long it took you to read the 6 paragraphs in my post. 18 minutes. You dumb bastid
  15. Nothing is covering any response you jackass
  16. Suddenly this is acceptable evidence? “Truncated English and pulled out your ass” and everything
  17. Trump on Epstein through the years https://abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics/trump-jeffrey-epstein-years-including-2024-campaign-trail/story?id=123778541
  18. Cuomo HAD a chance until Trump said it himself. Now he doesn’t.
  19. Trump definitely forced a 13 yo to give him a blowie and a handy J. that’s in the files he doesn’t want anyone to see. Probably forced his thumb peen into them as well. Why else is he freaking tf out like this? he might as well admit to it. Not like the MAGAts won’t forgive him. All he has to do is blame his behavior on Obama Hillary and Biden and all will be forgiven in the eyes of MAGA
