ME WATCHING THE OLYMPICS: *has never ice skated in my entire life* ooh her form was off

When you see unhoused people asking for money what you should see is a fracturing of the social contract where an issue (housing) that should be addressed on a municipal or statuary level is instead foisted on individuals in a way designed o put callouses on their souls
