Part of the reason that it's hard to "adult" right now is that most of what you're expected to do in "adulting" is activity to set up a stable future.
But most of us have felt for a long time that stability is a lie being told to us with enough "one in a lifetime" disasters every 6 months...

Study after study shows that it's remarkably cheap and easy to solve the problems of homelessness and poverty with low-barrier supportive housing and universal basic income, but our own fear that someone, somewhere will get something they didn't "earn" keeps us looking for other (punitive) options.
“In 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.

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

Together we said NO to his attacks on public health.
NO to his assault on our Constitution.

This administration is terrified of its own citizens speaking up! Governor Greg Abbott has once again activated the Texas National Guard ahead of the second No Kings event, specifically targeting Austin, and labeling the rally a “planned Antifa-linked demonstration.”

So the argument for sending US troops into cities to be used against Americans is that Antifa has apparently taken over our cities and the troops have to battle them.

Big thank you to the great @murray.senate.gov for joining Meidas Health today with my great friend and physician leader @drkavitapatel.bsky.social to break down the terrible impacts of rhe government shutdown on our nations health.
Murray: I talked to a family that’s paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. It’s going to jump to over $1,800 per month.
Many people will turn away and not pay for it—obviously, they’ll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.
