Some crybabies are mad at Martha Stewart's Halloween costume

It is in poor taste.

Did she go as an L.A. resident or Top Ramen voter?

“The real face of homelessness is a single mother of three working minimum wage.”

-Gavin Newsome

Such a fig

That's bullshite. Just the other day I defended you and said we shouldn't call retards, retarded. We are very accepting of the mentally disabled. Some say we are the most accepting.

You are free to proudly ridicule whoever you want behind a screen name and your phone, while unironically lecturing people about personal responsibility.

Well, I was going to try to have a conversation with you, but instead you want to try to attack me, so I guess I will stoop to your level.


I think the real issue here is that you seeing Martha dressed up as a homeless guy brings back memories of that time you fricked a homeless dude, and after that, he decided he would rather be homeless than frick you again, so he stole your bike and left.

We are here for you if you need to talk through the emotions this thread conjured up for you.

as evidenced by your opening of “I don’t have time for your liberal white woman nonsense…”

Lol what a fig

Calling a spade a spade does not negate my willingness to allow you to defend your position but instead you chose not to because there is nothing to defend

It's not a disease

Since 2010 I have hired literally 100s of recovering addicts for temporary construction jobs from a sober living facility here in Lake Charles. Not one of them had a "disease". They all willingly chose to do drugs. They also willingly chose to get help, which was free to them through Medicaid. Any addict can do the same as them and get help.

I have heard all the stories, including many of them telling me about the period they were homeless, and they will even tell you they made that choice to do drugs and be homeless.

Some made it and are still clean. Some aren't.

Want to know the difference I observed between the ones who made it vs the ones who relapsed? They took personal responsibility and wanted to be better. The others made the choice to start drugs again after weeks, months, and years of being sober. Not because they had a disease. Because they made the conscientious choice to chase that high again.

Hell, one is a high school boys' basketball coach now and doing very well. He was the 3rd or 4th one I ever hired. He failed a few times between then and now, but he kept going. He still checks in with me 16 years later to say thanks for giving him a shot.
