That’s what I’m thinking to. There’s no way the government thinks even 45K$ is a livable wage in California. A lot of single person hate out there to, like I’m sorry I’m not popping out kids every year and can look forward to a nice tax return and other benefits. I personally think they want to do completely away with…

“This car needs a $5k repair and instead of doing that I’ll take a couple grand off the asking price.”

“this Maserati needs new engine and transmission mounts”

Or maybe file a claim against the estate of Francis Scott Key himself for putting his bridge smack dab in the middle of the bay where it was just begging to be hit by a ship.

Force majeure covers mechanical failures?  The ship wasn’t blown into the bridge by unexpected hurricane-force winds.

The ordinances specifically allow for advertising of services/companies, just not sale, which is such a hilariously specific thing. If they also banned commercial vehicles from having ads and phone numbers it might have been harder to contest, but then they would have had all the local companies fighting it from the…

Seems like they would have to ticket every work vehicle on the road that had a phone number advertised on the side. Isn’t that “using the streets for commercial purposes?”

Why do you "loath people who do this"?  I am legitimately curious and a little confused

What is goinkg on with your keyboard?

The real story is that ridiculous sign advertising “More gas per gallon.”

Turns out, it’s sort of a cross between an Automat and a Mechanical Turk.

I personally think it’s a brilliant idea.

Nah. This is bottom of the barrel configuration of this car.

$20 is $20

Good for them, I guess.

The laws on who is responsible for this are very clear. Securing the rail lines and yards is exclusively the domain of the railroads.

I just got back from a business trip there yesterday. My workplace has issued a warning not to stop near the Oakland airport to fill up the rental car before returning it because you’re too likely to get robbed.

Please run for office...

I’m a liberal for sure (hear this one all the time on NPR) and the term I hear these days is “experiencing homelessness”. I think it’s a fucking waste of time to debate semantics when what’s needed is building a fuckton of housing. And don’t give me this BS like here in NJ where every town has to have a certain amount…

Just hire someone to create an “abandoned Cars of Oakland” IG acct and have her walk around taking pictures of.
