Because I don't see the need to drive my car 2 to 4 blocks away lol... (maybe if it was really cold) even when I had a car I still cycled and walked because most of everything i need is close..
like I never understood my ex gf's that would get pissed I'd park at the back of the parking lot.. instead of sitting in the traffic to find a spot 20 yards away..
like you can't walk for 20 seconds? we're going to go walk in a grocery store.. but hey im just a total fascist dictator.. -

Totally. Especially when half the world is starving. It's ridiculous. America is ridiculous in a lot of ways. Corporate policy has gotten absurd. -

Originally posted by Bueno Donate to my school.
Rarely, but sometimes GoFundMe.
Whenever the cashier asks, if dollar, then dollar, if not specified, round up.
Unfortunately, many donation funds are spent poorly, or just pocketed, like the Clinton Foundation.
Best a service can do is be transparent via 3rd party or such.
Worst they can do is be operated by government.
Weirdly, the socialist kinds I know want all them socialism.
I ask them on separate/not related times if they donate, NOPE!
But they seem to want to fantasize being fucked in the ass by Big Brother at gunpoint, cucks.
I think they would have paid folks as a service no problem, but they say doner for legal/tax reasons.
Fucking pedophile -

How much to they charge you
Don't worry.. they need it. The Hospitals charge and the insurance is there to pay for it. it beats researching an alternative. But if you like to.. give the money you get from them and give it to another cause -
2019-12-06 at 3 AM UTCYou know what's also annoying as fuck ?! Using your debit card you get pelted w/ prompts to donate,join the store club card etc. before you can close the transaction. The whole point of cards,readers was to make it quick w/ less human interaction/err.
Especially the fucking gas pump, I get hit @ the debit screen now the damn TV on the pump as I fill up. lol. -

2019-12-06 at 3:26 AM UTCIm pretty wary of handing cash over to organizations - although that really is the most efficient way to do things. Just at least once a month i go out and hand out care packages to homeless folks. Usually just whatever non perishable stuff I can find at the 99 cent store plus shampoo, toothpaste, razors, radios, toiletries, etc.

I doubt you do this once a month -

I'm sure he does.. an average. maybe he does have one specific day or something like "First Monday of the month'
its better to give those corner guys food. they almost always have someone from their camp come by and share it with others.
Just some comic relief: It would be funny if some homeless dudes built a pallet cabin and sold the food given to them; out of it.. and weed. Like a Bodega Store. -

Originally posted by Erekshun That's not donating, you get paid for it.
That's a good point. I looked up the word 'donation' because of it and it said its giving something away without expecting or getting anything back, monetarily especially.
But we DO call it plasma donation even though you get money for it. Blood donation you don't get money.
I agree with whatever. It's not donating if you get money to do it. Plasma "donor." No. -

Maybe I'm just too cynical to believe it. Seems like it'd add up quick though, even with dollar store shit. Get like 5 things per bag, hand out 10 bags, that's 50 dollars a month. Plus time spent finding homeless people. If you go to where they congregate you'll probably find dozens of people. I've seen those LA tent cities first hand. It's no joke. You could drop hundreds or thousands easily. Casper is not a rich man he's a simple mud farmer -

Yes I heard that LA is getting almost as bad as the Tenderloin San Francisco.
I should post one of my dashcams.. like 2016 or 2017. it got way worse yet it seems the city is finally opening Navigation Centers and banning Camping under freeways and under road bridges throughout the city. So it's an exchange. We build Tuff Shed you live in, in return you can never go back to tent cities. -

I used to do it every weekend when I had a car. Now since I walk, there’s usually only 3 or 4 people that I’m able to find. Year before last I brought out Christmas Eve meals til some dude said he didn’t “need that shit. Do it look like I got a refrigerator?”
Now I try to keep it to $10 a bag, and I ask them if they need anything in particular. Drove a dude to goodwill to get him a couple pairs of shoes, and then he started screaming that I stole his bible.
I am poor as shit now, but I also have very low living expenses, and some savings. They give me $20 a month on my ebt card so I usually buy half of the stuff with that. -
