This bench needs just one accessory
Not sure if sex toy or tool
¿Por qué no los dos?”
Sex tool
I was in a hair metal band called Sex Tool. We were disturbingly successful in the 80s.
Sex toy. I am the tool
Yes.
Most of them, you can remove the bars with an Allen wrench.
Not that I would know anything about that.
Unfortunately, they’re making benches now with the tubing welded on.
Honestly, get three dudes out there. Put them in HiVis and give one a clipboard and one an angle grinder? No one would even bat an eye.
Is it anti homeless or designed to stop you from rolling off while sleeping?
Keeps you on the bench and also ensures that your blanket (or cardboard or even newspapers…) stays where it belongs even in strong winds.
There was a guy going around St. Louis giving out wrenches to homeless people to remove them, and there was a guy going around Seattle just removing them himself. IDK if the sentiment has spread to other cities, I can only speak about the places I have lived and seen news reports about this.
Can it really be considered vandalism if you improve public property?
How do homeless encampments improve a city? Anyways, you’re also free to invite a homeless person to sleep on your couch or camp out on your yard, but I know you won’t
They improve a city by forcing people to reckon with the natural result of our system. When encampments are removed, it doesn’t get rid of homelessness. The people just get pushed somewhere else. The only way to get rid of homelessness is to make everyone have a home. This can be done by preventing people from losing their homes, giving the basic human right of shelter, or by killing anybody without a home. Removing encampments is much closer to that final solution, as forcing people to leave public property with violence endangers their lives.
You ask me to give voluntary charity because you think becoming homeless is a individual problem instead of a collective problem. You’ve bought into the personal responsibility bullshit that brought us to our current dystopia. You think we can have a free lunch, supporting a system that ensures people lose and getting upset that those losers visibly exist. Sorry, but the price must always be paid, and you’re upset that you even need to pay a fraction of it. It’s basic economics.
That’s just anti-immigrant propaganda bullshit with a couple words changed.
If you’re going to build a xenophobic strawman, at least try to make it more original.
You’re playing the race card here!
Nope. Just pointing out that you’re copying the same xenophobic rhetoric used by people scared of immigrants which you literally are.
I would say “I’m an immigrant” cause I came from another country in the continent, but then I realized I’m 60% native and still in my continent, so you’re right. I’m not an immigrant, I’m an original. And you’re right, I hate some immigrants, but not the brown ones, I hate the colonizers like you who think they’re fit to call natives in their own continent racist
Fun fact: I’m not a colonizer (or the descendant of any). My ancestors are farmers that stayed here in Denmark.
Another fun fact: your racial heritage has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that you’re using the exact same rhetoric as anti-immigrant racists.
If I had a dollar for every time some right wing troglodyte asked “I bet you wouldn’t let them stay at YOUR house” as an (invalid) argument for keeping out immigrants, I’d be able to buy Massachusetts and put in a fair offer for Vermont too.
I don’t see this as anti-homless, just anti-fat homeless. It looks big enough that an average person could just lay inside the rings of the arm rests.
Put your blankets over them and make a little tunnel fort.
They already beat you to this. Look at the difference between the closest and second closest rungs. One is much squatter than the other. Which is also just shit for sitting, having two different height arm rests sucks if you have chronic pain. Because yeah otherwise you could probably make a decent swag out of it.
High visbility vest and a socket set should do the trick.
Anti fat homeless. Skinny homeless dudes can slip right through them bitches. Jokes on you now I won’t roll off!
Hobophobic
Just slide your body in between the arm rests, dumbass
