@maddow.bsky.social Could you research the legality of CBP operating in southern WI, MI, and Chicago? By treaty, Lake Michigan is NOT int'l waters, yet it keeps being considered as such by CBP. Is there a lawsuit about this? 100 miles from the Canadian border should not include Chicago and Milwaukee

The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP
You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670
Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem
If you’re angry about “your money” feeding people but not angry it’s giving tax cuts to the wealthy?
You’re doing their dirty work.

Vienna has a way to make affordable housing and combat climate change all at the same time. Now U.S. cities want in, and they're building their own green housing.
Could this city be the model for how to tackle the housing crisis and climate change?

BREAKING: Mamdani and Lander will cross-endorse.
The partnership, which is being announced one day before early voting begins, would effectively turn Mamdani and Lander into something of a joint entry. They hope that one of them will eventually accumulate many of the other’s votes as a result.

As much as I adore Apartment Therapy, this article constantly refers to what most would call a 10 minute tidy (or pickup) as the 10 minute decluttering method. Decluttering is getting rid of items that clutter up a space, not tidying.
