For people who are smart enough to remove yourself from the Facebook platform…this is all the good content you’re missing from the Rosemount neighbors Facebook group. This person goes on to make mention of chem-trails and talks of dandelion tea curing cancer. I’ll keep my “toxic” fluoride thanks.

Facebook loves to remind me about the time my apartment actually fell apart. I lived off of Zane ave and Brooklyn blvd. Not long after this picture was taken the woman living above me fell through the ceiling while brushing her teeth along with about 5 Idaho potato sized rats and their black rice.
