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.

That white Marine who fatally strangled a homeless black man on the subway got invited to Trump’s suite at a football game and got a job at a vc firm.

They’ve definitely told us what it is.

Imagine how massive the tax breaks for billionaires must be when cutting $700B from Medicaid, $500B from Medicare, and $300B in food assistance STILL leaves a $4T deficit.

Hey, did you know there's an alternative to ChatGPT that makes sense economically and doesn't destroy the environment?
It's called English majors and they will happily fix all of your documents for the low price of health insurance and a living wage.

Since I’m a housing and homelessness guy I feel like I need to remind everyone that these tariffs are likely to have a cataclysmic effect on housing affordability and homelessness.

Transphobes be like, I accept that you do something that harms no one but I find annoying, why can’t you accept that I hate trans people & hope they cease to exist?! Why are you so one sided?!

BREAKING: DHS Detains Palestinian Student from Columbia Encampment, Says Advocates Agents told him his student visa was revoked. But he had a green card. Agents then said that was revoked too.

NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.

Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confusedβ€”then said that was revoked too.

His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

Incredible to think how hard Merrick Garland worked for four years to avoid even the remotest appearance of partisanship or ideological commitments, and literally on her first day as AG Pam Bondi is like "Diversity is now illegal, we will be putting all the libs in prison"

the mystification is important point. the mythical "unqualified black person" who took a job or a spot at an elite college exists in the cultural landscape as a literal scapegoat for a sense a personal inadequacy or anxieties about status. it's not that you're not good enough, it's the blacks.

Coming back here because the queer romance I'm currently reading just pulled this crap.

Picture this: They're in the middle of a full blown mob war and these two geniuses LEAVE the safe and secure location they're in to rendezvous at a freaking hotel.

Guess how that turned out for them.

People are about to learn just how many programs, departments, events, roles, etc for Black and brown folks were federally funded (and in some cases federally protected). All the Black ppl who always ask "what have the dems even done for us" are about to get the most dramatic answer possible.

The Attack on Birthright Citizenship Is a Big Test for the Constitution Does the text mean what it plainly says?

Trump's attempt to nullify the 14th Amendment's birthright citizenship provision is an attempt to reverse one of the most important outcomes of the Civil War, the idea that American citizenship is not based on race www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Trump's freezing of all civil rights cases at the DOJ is not part of an anti-DEI agenda, but an anti-civil rights agenda. DOJ was *founded* to protect Black rights during Reconstruction. That this difference is unclear speaks to the success of conservative propagandists and the failures of liberals.

24.01.2025 14:25 β€” πŸ‘ 3837    πŸ” 1266    πŸ’¬ 60    πŸ“Œ 67

So, just to be clear: rescinding a 60-year-old executive order prohibiting discrimination in federal hiring and federal contracting is not ant-DEI, it is anti-civil rights. Efforts to subvert the 1964 Civil Rights Act are likely next,if you read what conservatives have said.And that's the beginning.
