|    The Amount of Poop on San Francisco's St    |

      XPost: alt.travel, misc.consumers, alt.politics.democrats       XPost: alt.journalism.newspapers       From: lets-poop-together@abc.com              The city had a whopping 28,084 reports of turds in 2018.              Turds attact homosexuals and Democrats.              For the past decade, San Francisco's streets and sidewalks have       been increasingly plagued by piles of human shit—and the poop       problem is just getting worse. The city officially put together       a so-called "poop patrol" task force back in 2018 to deal with       the problem, and some Bay Area tech bro even whipped up an app       called "SnapCrap" to help city residents file dookie reports to       311, but it looks like the shit crisis continues.              According to a new report this week from Forbes and non-profit       watchdog Open the Books, the city had a whopping 28,084 reports       of turds in 2018, up five times from what it was back in 2011.       And there are already 6,676 shit sightings on the books in 2019.                     Open the Books also put together a handy map to plot out all the       various turd sightings over the years, and, good lord, the thing       just turns the entire city into a big mess of brown. Shit is, as       they say, fucked:              1555689224437-Screen-Shot-2019-04-19-at-115333-AM       Of course, as the new report and that ghastly map that makes the       entire city look like a turd itself show, the city's ongoing       human waste problem isn't going to be solved by an app or some       unfortunate city workers armed with pooper scoopers. The real       issue is San Francisco's growing homelessness epidemic—and the       streets will continue to run brown until the city's unhoused       population gets access to public bathrooms. Meanwhile, while the       city drowns in shit, it's also drowning in millionaires—and the       number of ultra-rich tech bros moving in is only going to go up.              “Homelessness has been a constant in San Francisco, but income       inequality has only grown. I would love to see more permanent       housing-focused legislation introduced,” Jennifer Wong, who       created a similar poop map, told Tonic in an interview last       year. “What's important is the underlying issue—that those       experiencing homelessness lack essential resources such as       bathrooms. I believe that the one true solution is a housing       first one.”              There is no homeless problem. There is a Democrat problem.              https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/a3xdae/more-people-pooping-in-       san-francisco-than-ever-all-time-high-vgtrn                      --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
