Yes, yes - how silly of me to think that Reddit is about sharing opinions.

Oh my bad, I shared my feelings about FIFA while also actually trying to help the OP. What a shitheel I must be.

IANAL: I agree that the friend should call the police and let them decide. It's a nuisance law and an attorney's services will probably be required to fix the issue.

> Massachusetts law uses the ordinary person standard to determine whether something is a private nuisance. You must prove that an ordinary person would be bothered by the alleged behavior or circumstances causing the public nuisance. For example, if you have an extremely sensitive sense of smell and a nearby odor is causing you grief, from a legal standpoint, you may not have a case if an ordinary person wouldn’t find the same odor offensive.

> In Massachusetts, a property holder must prove that a nuisance has caused “significant harm” to their interest. The nuisance has to impact their use and enjoyment of the land directly.

> Philip Stinson, a professor who researches police crime at Bowling Green State University, told Newsweek that Laudon's pattern is common across the United States. Small, municipal departments are particularly incentivized to overlook blemishes in an officer's record if it means they can fill a job faster and more cheaply.

> "A lot of those agencies like to hire people who have already got their Police Academy training, or in some states that would include a state-level certification," said Stinson. "If they have that, it's less of a problem for them. They don't have to pay them to go to the Academy and lose that time and cost involved."

If only they could use any of that government bloat money that law enforcement gets for, you know, stuff like a background check...

> Some departments don't have thorough background checks, while others simply choose to overlook past misconduct. Even if officers lose their certification, their new employers may never find out.

Oh, they don't spend the money because they don't care.

> "There's a decertification registry, but it's voluntary," said Stinson. "A lot of prospective law enforcement agency employers don't check with them, and a lot of states don't provide information to that registry."

> In cases like Laudon's, where an officer resigns during a misconduct review, the investigation might just remain under lock and key.

> Stinson said, "Sometimes what will happen is they won't even finish writing up an internal discipline investigation report because the officer is no longer employed there—they don't have jurisdiction over them administratively. So sometimes there's no paper trail at all."

Oh and it's also easy to wiggle out of if you leave mid-investigation, get to your house, and shout "BASE!" apparently.

#BUT GOSH, I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE SAY "ACAB"

Although personally, I don't recommend watching this because both FIFA and Qatar are disgustingly corrupt, your best bet is probably to call the local sports bars in Worcester. Places like Stakes, Three G's, Fat Chops, and possibly even the billiard place. Give them a call when they open and they'll def confirm.

World Market is fantastic. They're the only folks I see carrying Walkerton spice rubs / marinades for jerk chicken - which is what they use at Scotchies in Jamaica. They're also the best for finding weird desserts too.

I knew people lived under that covered bridge!

The Quabbin area is an incestuous hellhole of morlocks?

What about if you get out of the city and head towards the boonies? Like that area between Springfield and Worcester can be shoddy with all networks but I'd love to hear from you on it.

Once the snow is on the ground, the stuff that literally flabbergasts me is going over the town lines. Like Worcester to Leicester, Holden, Grafton borders go from an inch thick sheet of ice with an inch of slush on top to a perfectly clean road. It's almost jarring.

#Next you're gonna tell me that there's a long standing, systemic history of problems within law enforcement in general! I'm shocked, shocked I tell you!

Get an inhaler and try out this one product: MYCO Host Defense BREATH. It's got Cordyceps, Reishi and Chaga and I know of several people who have found it really helped. It is, by no means, a guarantee as alternative medicine is just as hit-or-miss as pharmaceuticals... But this is relatively cheap to try and see if it helps.

...So I'm sorry if I'm blunt here, but this feels like the obvious problem. Most folks who have Long COVID are having either shortness of breath, loss of smell / smell change, or cough regularly. I have several friends that are like that at the moment - one of whom is typically doing 20+ hours of martial arts training a week and now he can't do any of it... Long COVID is awful.

You're so fragile that reading about other people working an industry you aren't involved in made you sick? Hearing about the success of others made you ill? Poor baby, how DO you ever get out of the house?

Diehl has a chance of winning as much as I have a chance of shitting out a gold brick. Enjoy your new Governor Healey.

Yeah, we call it the Horknut1 because it gives out shitty snide comments when someone tries to explain a situation.

Edit: LOL guy doesn't know he got blocked and thinks I deleted my comments. The fuck would I want to deal with a troll leaving nasty comments for? Bye u/Horknut1 - nobody will miss your "wit."

It's a Monday. Most places I know of that were doing Halloween stuff did it this last weekend.

I use an electric leaf blower after doing a mulch-mow to help spread it all out more so that my yard doesn't suffer too much... Because you can't really rake them once they've been mulched. I don't do this to protect my lawn (fuck grass, I mostly have creeping clover, dwarf fescue, and moss) but rather to avoid issues with pests and as a natural and free nutrient to the yard. If I have extra / excess leaves then I will gather them all up and either use them in my firepit or add it to my compost pile.

I also then use my blower for several neighbors who are elderly. They can't rake their lawn, they don't have money to pay someone else to do, and my stamina is on par with someone twice my age because of bad life choices - so I'm not able to spend the time and energy raking everybody's lawn.

I also make sure to do it in the middle of the day to minimize anyone being disturbed by it. It doesn't take a terribly long time because I live in a very wooded area and wait until most of the leaves have come down (because fuck doing it 2-3x a week).

How about you go talk with your neighbors if it bothers you so much?

Make a day of it. See for yourself.

He was doin' an impersonation of the blog writer, eh?

This is the real pro tip. City hall it the wedding with maybe just your parents and then if you still want a party, throw a rager at your home / a decent restaurant and call it a day.

Make sure on your replacement bin you draw on it and label it clearly - across the whole thing. I had to do something similar before and I spray painted my address a foot wide across it.

More like Turtle Choad. That's a biiiiig boy up top!

Not gunna lie: I am very, very excited for them to fucking disappear. Let's just hope it gets replaced with something cool.
