The obvious wisdom and effectiveness of Housing First is obscured by the fact we've made "a tiny, no-frills apartment" an expensive status symbol in huge swathes of the country by creating an artificial housing shortage

Every single thing you ever achieve in your entire career, every single thing you ever do for any boss ever, every hour spent commuting, every day you forced yourself to go to work sick so you could make rent, every hour of overtime.

It's all worth less than a single explosion.

They care more about getting their dicks hard for 5 seconds playing army man than they do about every moment of your entire life.

Every hardship. Every job. Every doctor's visit. Every time you pay taxes. Your education. Your retirement. They don't care.

They press button, go BOOM.

Isn't it fun to think that the average American will make less in 40 years than the cost of a single missile?

She agreed to comply with transphobes' dehumanizing demands, but they still stripped her of her driver's license. The whistle-blowers were right, the transphobes' end goal really is to fully eliminate transgender people from social life.

SCOOP: An internal DHS document obtained by 404 Media shows for the first time CBP used location data sourced from the online advertising industry to track phone locations.

This surveillance can happen through all sorts of apps, such as video games, news apps, weather trackers, and dating apps.

We really do need to hammer home reducing police budgets and using them to bolster teacher salaries immediately. The fact we have these massive goon squads playing candy crush all day at their jobs meanwhile teachers are having to get second incomes is frankly embarrassing as a rich country.

Maybe it’s just because I have a lot going on rn but it seems like Mamdani isn’t doing anything about this?

Just hoping folks don’t cause too big a stink over it?

300.

This is an action aimed at 300 people.

This just highlights how vulnerable the transgender community really isβ€”and how monstrous these policies attacking them really are.

It’s exactly how the Nazis targeted Jews. Exactly.

These lawmakers live the saddest fucking lives.

But why do they have to make them everyone else's problem?

Imagine dedicating your one life to being a soulless bigot.

How Brothel Workers in Nevada Just Made Labor History The courtesans at Sheri’s Ranch were staring down a horrifying new contract. So they did what workers everywhere do: They got organized.

When faced with a shockingly exploitative new employment contract that would’ve forced them to sign away their IP, their likeness rights, and their power of attorney, Jupiter Jetson and her coworkers at Sheri’s fought backβ€”fast.

They organized a union in SIX DAYS. www.thenation.com/article/econ...

Trans New Yorkers Deserve Better Than Mamdani's Inaction On Trans Youth Care Closures The mayor has immediate steps he can take to ensure continuity of care for trans youth.

New Yorkers horrified at what’s happening to trans folk in Kansas should pressure @mayor.nyc.gov to uphold his campaign promises, ASAP.

I say this as a Mamdani voter who pushed hard for him. This is a critical moment for trans healthcare/youth.

They can't afford to pay more than minimum wage.

But they can apprently afford to make that minimum wage job even more cruel and dystopic.
