So like... the only reason he is so fixated on the Nobel Peace Prize is Obama, right?

Also: the cruelty inflicted on the unhoused is a barometer of the state violence we're willing to tolerate.

It's actually not complicated. You end homelessness with safe, dignified housing people can afford.

It's World Homeless Day, and I'll just say: Homelessness isn't some great unsolvable mystery. People are homeless because they don't have homes. This suffering persists not for lack of solutions, but because enormous wealth and power are invested in maintaining the very structures that produce it.

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it!

This is the most incredibly mild set of criticisms after "Denver's system is so incredibly disappointing, like riding a trolley powered by a bicycle." Just LOL. You could have just been reasonable to start.

oh no for 2 minutes

Right? When I made the connection I was like ooooohhhh that's why tomatoes are so good!

Not only is this true, one of the reasons tomatoes are extra good is that they contain MSG and drying them concentrates it. You can also add MSG to things.

And it is WILD that this context is not repeated by the media every single time he opens his mouth about Ukraine.

Him bumbling around in Ukraine got him impeached the first time. It's not just that he loves Russia. He fucking hates Zelenskyy for not kowtowing to him. He probably blames him for his second loss.

Saying the war "never would have happened" if Donald Trump was president is not only a lie, it's possible that by signaling that the US was weak on Ukraine--by demonstrating that a president could illicitly halt aid, and that our government wouldn't actually hold him accountable--he helped cause it.

I realize that asking people to remember 2019 is impossible, since it was a million years ago, but you may recall Donald Trump's first impeachment, which happened because he withheld $400 million in aid to Ukraine because he asked Zelenskyy to investigate Biden (among other things).

When Donald Trump says that the war to Ukraine wouldn't have happened if he had been president, he is not only lying, he is in fact obfuscating his specific role in what happened.

We are (unfortunately) not able to take on more people in the crew. We have approximately as many people on board as we can genuinely manage, and at this point, we can't expand.

Love your neighbors. Fuck ICE.

America is many things, many of them terrible, and we cannot and should not deny that. But this is also America: the America that loves kids and their neighbors, and who will show up on a dime for what they believe is right.

Whistle requests: very light for a while, desultory printing, not a lot going on The last two days: 60 requests in 48 hours, tens of thousands of whistles requested Whistle goblins: have claimed 98% of the requests, and they're all moving out post haste

Booo. That’s annoying!
