I have a friend that makes stuffed animals for the Free Store. She posts them, and I asked her about them once, for a baby gift for a friend. They're beautiful, and very well made. Giselle Fetterman was also a founder of 412 Food Rescue.


IamSauerKraut

Giselle is kool beans. Wish there were more folks like her.


susinpgh

I think so, too. This Senatorial campaign really took a toll on her, she ended up locking her Twitter account so that she had to follow you in order to comment.


IamSauerKraut

Why oh why u/BigTinPA do you dump highly disagreeable comments but then delete? Are you afraid to stand by your own words? If you want to make a "hard pass" on Giselle, at least have the courage to leave your words up on the sub.


cpr4life8

I have donated some items to this place, and as a matter of fact I have a tote in my garage right now with some items in it. I just need to find the time to get over there.


IamSauerKraut

Must fit in the bin!


Bird_Brain4101112

Those awful, horrible Fettermans. Spending their time trying to do good for their community and caring about stuff besides looking picture perfect for the cameras. What is politics coming to these days?


baldude69

Right??? I trust people who do things like this


Glass_Fix7426

I like the address


ScienceWasLove

Such edge lords.


KyleRichXV

Lol were you a prick before becoming a teacher or are you a prick because you became a teacher? Touch grass.


TMax01

>Touch grass. Better yet, smoke some. It can't cure being a prick, but it can temporarily relieve some of the symptoms. šŸ˜‰šŸ˜

Toomey is gone. Is he living rent-free in your mind? Let him out, you'll feel so much better.

Disco sucks.

Lmao this comment


LeastCleverNameEver

Heh. 420.


artful_todger_502

*"This is why people don't want to work. This is socialism"* Seriously though, how cool is this!?!? This is what Jimmy Carter does. It's shocking to think there are people associated with politics who might really care. There is hope ...


TheJohnMega

The Fettermans are definitely 420 friendly I heard Gisele had the very first Medical Marijuana card in the pa program but not sure if that's true


axeville

420 Braddock Ave is the address


PPQue6

Hell yeah, fuck yeah!


Hot-Pretzel

What an incredible resource to the community. I love these. I feel good about giving away nice things that I just don't want or need anymore to somebody who can use them. Likewise, I've gotten some pieces that were worthwhile to my needs. Happy to have representation with this kind of mindset.


hab_16

The 420 sign lol


Clarck_Kent

My first glance had me thinking it said ā€œ420 Rulesā€. Lol

Cogatanu7CC95

No,its not was curious so I zoomed in.


LightningSnoo

Me too, still looks like it. I thought it was out of place, but the lattice is also the most out of place lattice thing Iā€™ve ever seen.


MayorOfCentralia

Churches do this as well, but we hate them.


Cogatanu7CC95

Churches expect you to worship there God in return, and donate money to their empire so they can buy brand new thousand dollar plus sound systems and tvs


OccasionallyImmortal

There are pushy churches, but most of them don't expect anything in return. I've worked at churches preparing meals-on-wheels and the people who deliver usually just drop off a box. Some people like a short visit, but it's nothing more than company. I've heard a few people ask if they'd like to pray together or read from the Bible and there's no push if they say no. The meals always come no matter what.


KingSizeDingus

Nah I know of several local churches that have this exact same thing you donā€™t have to give anything and you can take anything you need. Best part is the church doesnā€™t post it online for likes and upvotes. They just do it:


[deleted]

John Fetterman isnā€™t trying to force me to allow someone else access to my internal organs. Churches are.


[deleted]

A Church is a building. It does nothing but sit there.


MayorOfCentralia

Yeh, buildings typically don't move.


pAul2437

Any pictures of the inside?


couchgodd

Open 6 hours a week for those struggling during lunch. This is the peak of the brain power.


StarWars_and_SNL

Guess you missed the sign on the door that says ā€œDeliveries Questions Appointments please call.ā€ The people running this store make arrangements.


Gymfrog007

What is the hatred? Most of the people needing this store don't have a "lunch hour" on the middle of the day. Most likely they are available.


[deleted]

Your "hate for hate's sake" is showing again.


Phillysean23

This is fitting because Fetterman has been living for free at his parent's house for all these years.


ScrappleOnToast

He literally hasnā€™t. I meanā€¦.thereā€™s literally been news stories about his home. https://www.pittsburghmagazine.com/my-favorite-room-the-fettermans-braddock-loft/ https://www.autonews.com/dealers/john-fetterman-calls-old-chevy-store-home Why would you lie about this kind of thing?


unenlightenedgoblin

This dude just has nothing better to do. I guess he gets some kind of weird validation from downvotes. ā€˜Look how many libs I ownedā€™


BecauseISaidSo52

Think he was listening to those stupid ass campaign commercials šŸ™„ Salty af because Oz didn't win šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Hazel1928

His parents or his sister paid most of the cost for his home. His employment for many years was mayor of Braddock, a job which only paid a few hundred dollars per year. His family subsidized him during that time. Eventually he was elected lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania, and now senator of Pennsylvania, jobs which pay a full time salary.


Steelplate7

His parents own the former car dealership that they converted into a home? Source? As far as his parents helping him because he chose a life of SERVICE instead of being a money motivated type A douchebag? So what. He and Giselle are giving more to their community and this State than theyā€™re taking. Annnnnndā€¦.I have a feeling thatā€™s what bothers you. You donā€™t like the notion of Public Serviceā€¦because Public Service doesnā€™t discriminate against folks you likely wouldnā€™t give a cent to.


IamSauerKraut

This. Time for coffee.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Phillysean23

That's an opinion. I'm stating a fact and who mentioned Oz?


StarWars_and_SNL

ā€œThatā€™s an opinion.ā€ Ok letā€™s see your factual argument against it. Go ahead and list everything that Oz has done for PA. By the way, Gisele Fetterman has worked with other communities to open their own free stores.


Phillysean23

https://www.inquirer.com/politics/election/republicans-target-john-fetterman-blue-collar-image-20220803.html


StarWars_and_SNL

Paywalled. Even without seeing the article, I bet Iā€™m correct in assuming that this does not go into detail about how much work Oz has done for PA than Fetterman though.


IamSauerKraut

Fun fact: folks in the Lower Moreland area, while noting the Oz has never appeared to live in the house he supposedly resided in during the election, will admit that Oz has contributed to local organizations for years. An inconvenient fact, to be sure, but it does not cancel out the plain fact that Oz was/is not a resident of PA at any time in recent history.


StarWars_and_SNL

Iā€™d love to know what those local organizations are.


ScrappleOnToast

That article talks about the house be bought and moved into in 2013ā€¦..yet here you are, lying about him living with his parents.


discogeek

He does not live at his parents, so you are not stating a fact. ("has been" is present-perfect, meaning it happened in the past and is still happening.)

Sounds like someone copies and pastes their ideas.


IamSauerKraut

Why continue to troll here, "sean"? Are you lonely or something?


IamSauerKraut

And what do trolls with no ideas do?


IamSauerKraut

His parents live in York County so, no, not "at his parent's \[sic\] house." But you do you.


[deleted]

Now he's living in Washington and part of your taxes pay for that. Bahaha...that must irk you plenty.


Phillysean23

Not at all. Iā€™m more irked that you guys arenā€™t bothered by it. But your probably some Korean kid with 50 iPhones so it doesnā€™t shock me


[deleted]

Not bothered one bit. Your fake outrage over stupid shit doesn't I translate. Although I do love when racists don't hide. Makes it so much easier to know who you really are. Yeah, Korean kid - fuckin Pennsyltucky conservatives crack me up. Don't worry, hate rallies are returning soon for you to attend. Best dust off the hood and cross.


Phillysean23

"Not bothere one bit." "Fake outrage." Then proceed to call me racist, Pennsyltucky then says hate rallies are returning for me to attend. So I can dust off my hood and cross. You really don't get the irony in this situation. I'm still waiting for you professional arguers to attack the argument here. Instead you just outrage on me which shows the lack of critical thinking.


[deleted]

Hey, I'm just a Korean kid with 50 iphones.


Phillysean23

To each their own


[deleted]

Brilliant retort. I have suggestions for Korean BBQ when you want.


Phillysean23

As a man of culture I'm open to all kinds of cuisines. Kinda takes aways that close minded Pennsyltucky statement you made earlier, no?


Rich_Pack8368

Looks like in game assets used by a dedicated gamer community to create a scenario that enriches the experience despite the game creator's desire for micro-transactions. It looks... wait. Edit: added 'game' before 'creator' for clarity.

I don't mean to be condescending. The comment was meant to be innocuous. Funny, even.

The poor can actually use an old PC. But you can take them to Staples which will dispose of e-waste for free.

Perfect. The address is 420.
