DeebieSkeebiesThere's an LDS temple thats being proposed for the valley I live in and everyone's pissed because its going to ruin the views.
Also tons of housing shortages, employee shortages, and high living costs. My area blew up during the pandemic and I can't find shit cheaper than $1k/month and just straight-up sketchy listings for bedrooms. Oh well.
SlitherySnakesee that stinks if it’s blocking views but they’re always super well designed and pretty dang cool lookin so hopefully it doesn’t mess any of em up too bad
Poindexter.V2One of the most fucked up housing markets in the nation
AlaskaDogfartWe have 1.5 million cruise passengers a summer in about 5 years, in a town of 30,000 people. The city cannot handle the sheer amount of people, and our downtown is inundated with tourists. They doing nothing to slow/control the growth of the industry in our small mountain/seaside town.
mystery3Probably the homeless/mental health/opiate crises? So intertwined and seemingly hopeless. The solutions are so complex and difficult to implement.

GrandThingsHow fucking dumb do you have to be to do this in todays hyper-PC climate? Jesus
WoFlowzIdk but here’s two pretty bad things that happened in my area in the past week. Well not terrible but like come on people. The hospital my moms works for held a “Chinese auction” and a lunch monitor at my school got fired or moved for calling kids retards and fags repetitively. He was also like 80 but still not right. Rly nice dude otherwise kinda disappointing. Edit: oh also a teacher in my school dropped the NWord hard r while reading a book without hesitation and got in trouble for it and had to explain to the class why it isn’t appropriate and apologized to the class.

VTshredder69People think that mandating a vaccine will make covid disappear.
DeebieSkeebiesI really don't give too much of a shit not being a homeowner myself but I kinda see what people mean by the views being ruined. There are a lot of huge farms in the area with tons of open space they're selling off to developers and temples aren't the only things being built too. They're going to develop full-on townhouses, condos, apartments, shopping centers all over the place. Its a pretty small area honestly, not much bigger than it's neighboring town of park city and that's whole different shitshow of local champagne problems. If the housing market eventually chills out and there are more options as far as housing inventory goes, I might consider sticking around but I'm probably gonna head out somewhere else in the spring

twinkle_toesCost of living continues to rise at a very fast rate, but wages never seem to change. Metal/lumber costs are skyrocketing. Housing costs are straight up laughable at this point. The industries/government complain about labor shortages but do fuck all to address the housing crisis. How are workers supposed to keep this shit hole city running for the rich if we can't even afford to live here lol....
We pay income tax every paycheck. Then pay taxes on every item we buy. I bought a bag of bagels for $7 the other day. What the fuck man. All I can do is laugh at how ridiculous things are getting now haha
Sooo move to a small town where housing is cheaper = less jobs
or stay in the city where there's tons of work = live in someone's attic in a closet and eat ramen noodles for the rest of my life
???

hoodratz47Got exposed to covid by a paitent at work. They are these alternate medical clinics in my little town and they are giving people looking for monoclonal (sp) infusions. And giving them a fucking cocktail of stuff that would make hunter Thompson cringe. And it's fucking them up
DingoSeanNobody thinks that.. It's not going to disappear.
They think if people stop being idiots and get the damn thing, that we will be able to continue re-opening things, and getting back to normal.
We wouldnt even be as far as we are right now if it were not for vaccines... theyre saving our asses.
VTshredder69Lol. Last time I checked my measles vaccine actually worked and I didn’t get measles.
qazwsxedc34A major deflationary crisis is the only way the housing market might come back to reasonable price levels.

DingoSeanGod damnit what the fuck is going on over there where people are so convinced that the vaccine will hurt them
this shit is INSANE
hoodratz47Rural Eastern Oregon... That's what's up.
NotaskibumPeople get mad that housing is getting built then in the same breath complain about housing prices
