Oh, how many times I've done exactly that! I'm trying to strike a balance...

DeKalb County families turn to extended-stay hotels as rents soar: "We're all screwed" A Georgia State University study reveals that more than 2,004 households — including at least 1,635 children — are currently residing in hotels across DeKalb County, as housing costs exceed wages and ...

Wow! That's abundance you can feel! Keep going. 🫠

What a stunning blend of nature!

Exactly! Or no money to ensure Americans have decent #affordablehousing.
Or don't have to struggle with #foodinsecurity, but instead make stoopid cuts #SNAP!

"If the US government persists down this current path...the world will inevitably witness a tragic increase in child deaths..."

SNAP bans on soda, candy and other foods take effect in five states Jan. 1 Americans in five states who get government help paying for groceries will see new limits starting Thursday on soda, candy and other foods they can buy with those benefits.

Isn't the 1st time some foods are prohibited #EBT purchases for #SNAP clients. And the "no cooked foods" thing assumes even the poorest have an equipped kitchen. Decades ago my kids and I, in deep poverty, did not. #ADayattheFare What are your thoughts about the new bans? apnews.com/article/snap...

Right now hunger is caused by unequal distribution of resources, not a lack of food. By 2050, the global population will reach 10 billion people. Without major changes, we will not have enough food to feed the human race.

Thanks so much for passing this along!

Started my week off with a high point that's just too uplifting for me not to share with you. Watch and be reminded of good. #animallovers #musicisuniversal #peace

Reporter: 64% of Americans are buying cheaper or less food. 34% have skipped a meal altogether. 48% said they use savings for their basic expenses. Nearly half of Americans say groceries, housing, utilities, and health care are just getting harder to afford.

Just ridiculous....

An investor called $140,000 the new poverty line. Experts disagreed but said he had a point. Michael Green’s tally of the costs of raising a family in the U.S. today is going viral, even if some economists scoff at his math.

🥗 This is the urgent reality that @alissaquart.bsky.social’s incredible books woke me up to, and it’s the reality we all must confront to progress as a nqtion, a people, a community. One where all of us can survive and thrive, and we leave NOBODY behind!

Georgians to Get SNAP Payments Today; Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson Gives Trump Deadline Georgians who rely on SNAP or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will not receive critical food benefits in November

Elated to read of this. No one in the U.S. should be wo. food. When I was in deep #poverty decades ago, I woulda felt like some kinda unfit mother if my kids said, "Momma I'm hungry," and I had nothing to offer them. #SNAP makes a difference. #foodinsecurity

Watched this multiple times. It put a bright- start-of-the-day kind of smile on my face, seeing veterans treated with the civility, dignity, and respect they deserve. Their smiles and Pres. Obama's heartfelt gestures set me on my grateful way! #veteransday #HappyVeteransDay
#thankyouforyourservice

Thank you for honoring all those brave individuals. It brought me to tears. They deserve to be treated with civilty, dignity, and honor the rest of their days. 👏🏿👏🏾👏🏽👏🏼👏🏻

What a cutie! 👍🏽

Sounds like a win win to me! For your household and a very lucky kitty. Thanks for adopting. 🤗 🐱

Happ, happy! Joy, joy! This put a huge smile on my face! Too cute! (Or are they two cute?!)

And I am SO ready for them to do it!

I heard some old friends at Pod Save America were in town, so I decided to stop by. As we saw this week, we can change this country for the better. But it’s going to take all of us getting organized and having honest conversations about the best way forward.

It's another good day! Totally happy to hear that everyday people in need of food are going to get the #nutritionalassistance that #SNAP provides! Sorry for what you've had to endure. May this benefit remain intact. Heck, let's strengthen and preserve it! #anappleadayisnotenough
