I keep thinking how little we need to do to make something so consequential essentially eradicated. But yes yes…$1.5T for blowing shit up! More of that!
“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 to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

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

This is a good mid-length read on how the financial industry is a big, big part of everything that’s wrong with the world today.
In short: Why is it so hard to get money to start a business or build new homes? Because Wall Street are pigs at the goddamn trough.

@amywestervelt.bsky.social with Critical Frequency and others, how do you think this “real” 4th Estate lives where legacy media existed in the collective consciousness of the reader/viewers seeking truth/facts? I listen to a pile of disparate sources because I’m willing to hunt, but others less so?

I’ve asked elsewhere, but all of this was coming wayyy in the distance. Billionaires buying up all the legacy media and treating them a private equity strip down.
Now what are we going g to do with the talent that is clearly now available to be deployed as a fourth estate we need?

The issue remains: Will the US industrialists simply concede the market to its own detriment or own up to a short-sighted mistake and pivot.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Multiple countries sign landmark deal to build giant wind farms in the North Sea "that directly connect to various countries through high-voltage subsea cables, under plans that are expected to provide 100 gigawatts (GW) of offshore wind power."
The US, meanwhile, is shutting down offshore wind.

Ooooooh like the healthcare plan he’s been yammering on about for 8+ years
Trump: "We have a concept of a deal. I think it's gonna be a very good deal for the United States. Also for them. And we're gonna work together on something having to do with the arctic as a whole, but also Greenland. And it has to do with the security and other things."

Trump is trying to kill clean energy. The market has other plans.
The administration has done real damage to climate action, experts say. But in many ways, renewables are unstoppable.

What media? The ones owned by equally thin-skinned billionaires? *THAT* media? If folks are counting on legacy 4th-estaters, let’s hope the #Misfits realize there are other guerilla media ready to take the mantle.
There’s still a taboo in the media about describing Trump’s cognitive state.
It’s rooted in the idea that the US President being insane sounds so preposterous that it must be an inaccurate slur.
But it’s the hard truth.
All of this is a result of Trump being an unstable narcissistic megalomaniac.

Makes you wonder what GM, Ford, and whatever is left of Chrysler think their business model should be….
nailed it.
It’s amazing watching the U.S. cede the global auto market to China. We’re 24–36 months away from utter devastation in U.S. vehicle exports, because both automakers and the U.S. are scared of EVs, because a dozen petroleum executives have a whole political party at their beck and call.
