Sabin Elementary was granted a noise variance to allow music and dancing during once a week during recess—and a neighbor has chosen to appeal that decision to City Council www.portland.gov/council/docu...

Recess! Imagine being that pissed off about kids being joyful in the middle of the day

i literally can't make that cognitive leap into true sociopathy

Nope. Everyone has to have weird suburban brain rot where we all live in our own walled off castles and meet all others with extreme deriding suspension.

But we love the kids!

this was in PDX but only a matter of time before it happens here. we have boomer nimbys out here protesting bike lanes and pickleball courts. pretty soon they'll be protesting the laughter and joy of children too because they are sad fucks whose only solace is their accumulated property wealth

Oh West Seattle Blog last week was FILLED with outraged Fauntleroy residents stating that it was SELF-EVIDENT why one wouldn't want to live next to a 20-unit apartment building. People coming and going! Yearly lease-holders!

look at the guy who is complaining about the joy of children. claims to be an educator. amazing lack of self awareness. i hope his PDX neighbors shame and shun him

He’s not even old, how depressing. But at any rate it’s a sure thing the school was there first, Garrett

btw i live near a school and all day long i can hear the bloodcurdling screams of children on the playground at recess. never occurred to me to complain to the city about it. they're our future, baby!
