Ordinary Notes

"I said, 'Why don't we just capture the ship? Why did we sink them?' He said, 'it's more fun to sink them.'"

Oh, no biggie. Just the president of the United States out there boasting about the commission of war crimes, to the uproarious laughter of his Nazi cohort.

Republicans revive squatting bill, targeting extended-stay hotels Proponents say it addresses squatters; critics worry it could erase Georgia Supreme Court protections for families living in hotels.

After the resolution, I spent the next few hours urging senators not to pass HB 61, which would allow extended-stays to summarily lock families out of their rooms for falling behind on rent and treat them as "squatters."

GA residents: contact your senator and ask them to vote NO on this cruel bill.

It sure is.

I lived in Cambridge for many years. Always as a renter. Every place asked for 3 months.

This is what ecocide looks like.

A friend tells me a 2-bedroom apartment they looked at in Cambridge, MA is 6800/month. I’m sure to move would also require first, last, and security ($20,400). That doesn’t cover moving costs.

Who is affording this? Who can afford this?

The faster we get there, the earlier we can run the initiative. And that I can get back to helping get funds to families in need!

Yes.

Going after desalination is closer to nuclear war than anything else weve ever seen there is no world if this is done there is just no world left after the horrors this will unleash
