I don’t know a ton about the budgeting situation of the city so I’m not gonna argue or agree with that, but I just mean that this seems to show that these kind of programs are a good goal to support and work towards. Just because we can’t make that happen right now, we can still identify this as something people want to make happen. And treat not having the resources for it as a problem to solve rather than a reason to dismiss the idea. Not that you necessarily were, but I see people often discount something because there’s not enough resources, but that isn’t a permanent thing.

Sure, I guess what I meant was that if something only works in the area it’s accessible that doesn’t mean it isn’t a good idea or isn’t working. It just needs to be brought to more areas. And that deciding something is worth spending money on is the first step to addressing the “not enough money” problem.

Maybe then .. we bring similar resources to more areas

It’s weird to argue this much over something that’s definitely not gonna happen, but also, a lot of people find the idea of a body fulfilling some kind of natural purpose or becoming part of a cycle very consoling and meaningful. No need to be so horrified at the mere suggestion some people might see mourning and death differently than you

Restaurant stages and lengthy unpaid trial shifts are both illegal assuming he cooked for customers. He should ask to be paid and mention this when he does so.

I just want you to know how much this sounds like a copypasta lmao

I’m referring to you saying “give it a shot for a decade” and that not everyone will be as unaffected by what might go on in that decade as you seem to believe you will

Not everyone is in a fortunate enough position to be willing to just risk a decade of their life on “seeing what happens”

That would be the Big Ass Baltimore Rat (tm)
