being canceled is not a real thing, it is a neologism describing the stigma that should come from bad behavior. the only consequences that come from it are the ones we collectively imposed, and as the last decade has shown, no one with institutional power is interested in that.

Spoiler: those beds will not deliver the results Wilson has promised.
can mayor wilson open 1,500 shelter beds in a year? apparently yes, which is good progress. now the question is if those beds will deliver the results wilson has promised www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...
Portland mayor set an ‘unrealistic goal’ for shelter beds – and is poised to hit it. Will it end unsheltered homelessness?
Nearly 7,500 people are living outside or in their vehicle in Multnomah County, the vast majority of them in Portland.

As I always do with boycotts, I urge: be tough with corporations, gentle with individual buyers. For some people, Black Friday sales are the way they get their kids jackets that fit, shoes that hold up to the weather. Yelling at them doesn’t help the cause.

Now the idea is out there and you are reading it. Will anyone be fed up enough to try?

Thinking about the homeless woman on the bus today who was just riding the bus back and forth, carrying all her belongings with her, because she had no where to go until the shelter opened back up for dinner. Overnight only shelters don’t stabilize people.

i'm sorry but i hate this shit. i like genre films a lot. it's like, the whole premise of my podcast. but there's nothing about being a fun and light genre film that means it must be poorly constructed or even lack an actual protagonist.
Or, movies are art/entertainment and that means wildly different things to different people.
