Thats my friend! He’s really like that all the time and is genuinely compassionate and wholesome in every aspect of his life.

He volunteers on a local community radio show each week called The Pedestrian Show where he advocates for better biking infrastructure in the city. He’s like actually involved in city council meetings and breaks down the proposed development plans on the radio in simple terms so people can understand what’s happening in the city without reading 50 pages of legalese.

Also, he’s really good at ping pong haha.

This guy just seems to be the absolute definition of a class act. Glad you’re able to call this gentleman a friend!

No, it really doesn’t. I expect Obama, W, and Biden were all kind people.

It depends what you mean by “kind”. If you ignore the war crimes and focus on their interpersonal skills, sure you can say they were kind.

But by that same definition, Hitler was kind too.

Pupusas may be simple-looking, but they are amazing if made well and very filling. Plus they are easy to carry and store and they heat up well.

In this particular case, the server offered to pay for the meal, rather than give it for free.

Such an ignorant statement made with such authority 😂

Homelessness is just as criminalized in blue states. Welcome to capitalism lol

I just found out that right after that 2017 Las Vegas shooting, the trump administration banned on a federal level this accessory that allows semi-automatic weapons to fire faster. Then THIS YEAR that ban was reversed. So, I guess my point is that we would like life to be more of a black and white complexity on issues (or, red and blue as it were), but often times it’s not that simple. Sometimes the people you think are here to protect your views are the ones attacking them.

I’m sure from republican point of view they probably felt betrayed that a republican administration pushed for a (small) form of gun reform. And I know that I feel betrayed that a democrat administration pushed to repeal that ban.

But sometimes it’s two hands of opposing sides coming together to give everybody the middle finger.

Most of the time it’s illegal to feed the homeless

in what way? Always? Through tax write offs? Through begging? Charity?

I will gladly get fired over doing what is morally right. But anyway, the guy said he was going to pay the other guys food. 🤷

Good to see Arkansas getting some love.

I was some hours from Little Rock, however Northwest Arkansas region, and there was a lot of compassion witnessed. Was homeless there for a short while, and without the kind nature of people I wouldn’t be here.

You expected the worker to compassionately comp food, offer the best of the menu, and then tell the guy to fuck off?

I was not expecting it to be in Arkansas. Yes I totally missed that it says it at the top.

Maybe he expected the police to show up, or some other person who doesn’t work there to cause an issue. The idea of a fully wholesome ending is rare these days, so people are FULLY prepared for the moment life fucks them.

As a reader on this sub it’s ludicrous silly goose behavior to get 2/3 through this post and think that of the final sentence.
