Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

β€œIn Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.

Supreme Court formally asked to overturn landmark same-sex marriage ruling 10 years after the Supreme Court extended marriage rights to all same-sex couples, it will consider whether to take a case asking it to overturn the decision.

We knew this was going to happen.

Birth control is next.

No, they LOVE the results. They’ve created an under-underclass. Now they’re going to criminalize being homeless and jail/institutionalize those that don’t just die.

This is a direct threat to the underclass. Get in line or go homeless.

WHERE DOES 85% OF GREENHOUSE GAS COME FROM?!?

If regular people dropped our ghg emissions to ZERO, it wouldn’t make a significant difference to global warming,

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

It's 2025, the year we decided we need a widespread slur for robots People all over TikTok and Instagram are using the word "clanker" as a catch-all for robots and AI. Here's a deep dive into the origins of the pejorative and an explanation of why it's spreading.

What is a clanker and why do we need this word?
