I once again present this petition for municipal sidewalk snow clearing in Buffalo. As of right now, we're at 978 signatures, can we get it over 1000?

You can choose to be self-righteous about people looting or you can choose to be grateful about people helping. What you decide to amplify tells us more about you than it does about Buffalo during a storm.

The people of Buffalo need supplies, power, heat, water, and snow removal.

So of course it's sensible that Buffalo is getting a military police force to enforce a driving ban.

So far my street has swallowed a BMW, a mini Cooper, and now a jeep. Stop driving in Buffalo. #buffalostorm2022

Heads up to anyone headed to the Lexington co-op on Elmwood, the checkout line is wrapped around all the way back to bulk foods.

What’s the ideal amount of time for firefighters to spend digging out fire hydrants while you or your neighbors home is burning? #Blizzardof2022 #clearthehydrants #BuffaloStorm2022

Anyway, now that authorities are very clearly leaning into the "looters and chaos" narrative, here's a counter narrative.

Meet Shahida Muhammad. For two days, she and her partner kept their baby boy alive with a manual ventilator.

Authorities said during a press conference that they went to her home and found no one. Poloncarz went so far as to question whether her story was even true.

As far as I can tell, this is the only thing we've heard from emergency crews about our refugee and immigrant neighbors.

Wait, so you’re telling me that professional athletes sometimes get special privileges? #Buffalo #BuffaloStorm2022 https://heavy.com/sports/buffalo-bills/driving-travel-ban-warning-backlash/

Left the house today and hiked down to Sheridan Dr. It's plowed! Saw a moving vehicle for the first time in days. Hoping they'll hit the neighborhood streets next #BuffaloStorm2022

On one hand, I was happy to outrun the storm so that we arrived to see family in #Buffalo before #BuffaloStorm2022 hit. We’ve been safe with my sister’s family. The power went out nearby but not at their house. On the other hand, I wasn’t expecting to be so snowed in that we’re on day 4 of not getting farther than the driveway. My parents live 10 minutes away and we still haven’t seen them. At this point, we may have to drive straight back to Illinois by the time the streets are cleared.

While that story of the Korean tourists in Buffalo finding hospitality when the snowstorm stranded them, there’s another side of town where residents struggled and died. https://apple.news/Aja_HXTNwQ_6Nv61qottXZAS #SnowStorm2022 #BuffaloStorm2022
