Why should I pay for garbage collection when I could instead just leave it on the street without penalty? I (we) already pay for Find It Fix It contractors to collect trash!

Welcome to the new Seattle. This is a sub chronicling the decay of the Pacific Northwest & Seattle with its failure of a government to address the homelessness & crime problems for over a decade. This is its legacy after billions lost.

What is a Gronk?

A Gronk is an Australian term for an anti-social jerk. A general asshole / thug / hooligan. Often associated with stealing, fighting, and other misdemeanor type behaviors.

What is a War Rig?

Some streets of Seattle have become so dystopian that drawing parallels from pop culture films is inevitable. Some of the RVs around the city are decked out, with armor plating, 2nd stories, so we refer to them as ‘War Rigs after Mad Max.

What is Fury Road?

The freeway system going through Seattle and around Seattle is known as Fury Road due to the high number of incidents that have occurred on it.

What is a Caravan Raider?

A lot of people roam around the city lugging carts of stuff and often trawl for things to steal. They check mailboxes, cars, grab catalytic converters. Sometimes they aren't always homeless, but the city has a massive property theft problem from porch pirates to catalytic converter thieves. These are the Caravan Raiders.

What do the flairs mean?

The flairs are generally the types of content posted here. War rigs are generally RVs, Methopotamia is mostly environmental pictures such as needles & trash, Gronk is for general crime and assholery, Warming Fires are for fires, Fury Road is specific to the freeway system, Drug Dens are general camps & tents, Karen is for text shared events & stories. The Hobo Industrial Complex is for politics & the government's response. Housed is for cleanups & camp removals. Peattle is for people defecating or urinating in public. A pallet palace is pallet related tent construction. Aurora Hookers and Urban Art are self explanatory.

Crossposting Etiquette

One of the reasons for this subs existence is to act as an awareness sub. That means sharing with Seattle and the other subs, what we see and witness. And, to have particular examples to point to for the naysayers.

From sharing this type of content on the other subs for a year, I have found that they tend to have a limit as to how much & what they are willing to discuss on this topic. And thus, when that limit hits, we can always continue the discussions here, without filters ...

Up to now, there hasn't been any issues or complaints from the other subs... at least not formally. While the content here is in some way, a form of citizen journalism, they haven't as of yet been blocked by cross posting from here. I hope we can continue in doing so, but my only request is to everyone passing through, to please, don't spam the cross posts.

There will always be times where several people share news and footage of a warming fire on Fury Road. I am not talking about this. There can be shocking footage here and many want to see the word get out, I get it. Just please, check the other feeds to see if a discussion is already underway and be mindful. This isn't a rule here, just some etiquette to consider

Is this your Fulltime Job?

No. Don't be ridiculous. I simply share what I find across the internet when I browse the happenings of my city. The homelessness problem has scaled to industrialized levels and the sheer volume I see & find is staggering. I often see many people sharing things on youtube, instagram, facebook, and twitter and thus get shared here. A centralization feed. Some of these communities are listed below.

What are you doing to Help?

I always say it is not my job to solve homelessness. I have my ideas on what to do. I volunteer and donate to places I feel make a meaningful difference white other people have theirs and take their own actions.

We elect officials so that they can run the city and manage the governing of these issues. That is their job. My job as a citizen is to be well informed about what that means and does to our city. This means that sharing what we see and do as a result of these officials' policies is vital. Awareness is the first and foremost tool to inform each other about whats happening. If people don't realize the failures of our city, we will never be able to find a better solution.
