when I hear people hacking on the homeless (not trying hard enough, just want drugs, freeloaders by choice, prefer to steal than to work) I wish I could explain to them how hard it is to act in your own best interest in a world that's devoted itself to enhancing your misery.
hat trick slash third time's the charm, citizens.
I didn't just go through a second time and put hearts on hundreds of cat pictures or anything. I'm definitely not the sort of person who would do that.

do you remember how fucking mean we were to Dan Quayle? can you BELIEVE we had STANDARDS that EXCORIATED a guy who later postponed the destruction of our republic by five years and counting. That's not nothing. Dan Quayle, I officially apologize. Should have said something sooner.

seeing people cross the street with their children when I was homeless put me somewhere I'm not sure I want to come back from if it means being with humans who see a pregnant woman with a cat and some bags in a baby stroller and think she's out to harm, rather than being herself so badly harmed.
do homeless people genuinely make other people unsafe? or just uncomfortable? And how does that compare to the genuinely unsafe and often significant, life-altering impacts that sweeps have on our unhoused neighbors?

so you all have seen that the bill the Senate passed, with eight Democratic senators assisting, grants a number of Republicans the right to collect $500,000 bonuses in our money for wiretaps about their involvement in Jan 6? I'm absolutely not making this up. Why did the Democrats pass this?

this morning the young coworker is trying to get in to her doctor because her tonsils are infected. That dry air in the Central Valley must be an ass kicker.
The young coworker went to Sacramento & came back sick. Told the boss how her boyfriend got sick when he got down there, this after proudly announcing to me that she isn't sick she is just sniffly 'from the dry air.'
I have a bunch more N95 Auras coming today. Good thing; looks like I'll need them.
