According to the article the top floor of the house and the roof had burned down completely. The firefighters had to bust in the door and use oxygen masks to get inside. The bunny was found inside an enclosure in one of the rooms. It was panicked and difficult to catch but they succeeded in rescuing the cute little furball. The owners are very happy about the rescue.

Actually it was invented by Crassus, Rome’s richest man, who was one of the triumvirate with caesar and pompey.

We should allow people who pull similar shit to die the same way as Crassus lol

[–] teft@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Don't tease me.

For anyone who doesn't know, Viserys' death at the hand of Khal Drogo was inspired by Crassus' alleged method of execution.

And to save other people who don't get that reference from googling it, he had molten gold poured down his throat.

In reality, the person lived outside of the city, and the county doesn’t have its own firefighters. The 75 a month is a little more than what the regular residents paid in taxes to the firefighters. Stupid is as stupid does.

I’d call that a failed state of the haven’t even got government firefighters. What other basic necessities don’t they have? Are streets also subscription based?

It’s the libertarian dream!

Toll roads can be subscription based yes

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

Toll roads are for profit. Roads shouldn't be for profit.

Id call that rural America, yall don’t realize how large some of these places are.

[–] Darukhnarn@feddit.de 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Since when should country size play a role in government support? There are planes ffs. If your military can operate in the middle of a desert with no utilities, you should be able to support a stable civilian management in rural places.

The guy specifically opted out of it. He could have paid the tax but didn’t, and he paid the price for it.

[–] Darukhnarn@feddit.de 5 points 6 months ago

If you can opt out of it, it’s not a tax. It’s an insurance. Taxes pay for everyone.
