Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.

My first post here. I'm keen on photographing small creatures; here a springtail (lass than 2mm long) in our garden.

Wife just pointed out we forgot our wedding anniversary for the 13th year in a row - which means she remembered first dammit

2. Here's an image from a presentation I gave to Twitter, representing the Twitter bird freed from a closed platform to fly in Bluesky's open ecosystem.

Family in town for 🐢🔑 Day & my sister is mocking my Man Bag! How else does one traverse downtown Denver with Narcan, tourniquet, cigarettes, and spare magazine?

Am I meant to look like a prole & use my pockets?! Good lord, in this 2023, why live without a He-Purse!?

Brim full of Asha is on the radio & my mind melts back to 1998 when I was preparing to tell my band I was moving to the States. One last gig, for me, at The Shed in Leicester. We (early 20s) were opening for a Police cover band along with a group of kids, 16yr olds.

Just lugging around a big jug of my own cold piss. How’s everyone else doing today?

Cabin crew: Is there a Dr on board?

Me: I am a Dr

Cabin crew: Thank God. We have a question about the 18th century textile trade in Northern Africa

Me: Ah. I'm afraid my PhD is in the ceramics of Northern Europe, 1672 - 1701

Wonderful naloxone administration training this evening, provided by our Center for Interprofessional Practice- open to all, hence YHC learning & getting a free narcan kit.

Lots of students in the audience always awesome, but based on Q&A there’s a lack of basic pharmacokinetics which surprised me

Currently nil-by-mouth for >24hrs for an abdominal ultrasound in this afternoon. Time to find out how badly drunk-Tideliar fucked sober-Tideliar. Not really worried, que sera sera etc.

But hot damn I'm getting hangry - woe to the faculty who draw my ire this day (until after lunch)

Reskeet if you've ever:
- self-harmed
- attempted suicide
- been to a therapist
- cancelled on things because you don't have the energy to live
- lied about being okay
- had a panic attack in a public bathroom

the world needs to know how common these things are.

Probably going to disappear for a bit again. I miss my friends. Never should have turned our backs on blogger & the spaces . Arikia warned us, and here we are. Maybe it needs a podcast 🤢

I think I’m using bsky like I partly used twitter. A space to rage/cry (& hate at corps, but they’re not here yet). Is that an ok thing here? I get the vibe (from my limited skeet-space?) we’re all meant to be cool and sardonic…which just makes this 2010s twitter…

Is it possible to quit? I’ve done everything I can to get me & them this far & I’m burned out. (Them is my spoiled preteen children & alcoholic, couch surfer, sports-watching unemployed wife-Trad husband I suppose). Any executive parent/mom advice on handling this “Fuck it, I’m done. Goodbye” vibe?

Shingles vaccine is kicking my ass. I feel like I’ve been run over by a truck

I got a bad feeling about this one. Admittedly I’ve had a bad feeling about this for almost a decade, and even longer with the other thing. But this? This one feels very deliberate, not the usual stupid.

Feeling very Canticle for Leibowitz right now.

Deary me. These children. I’ve been out all day and at a family oriented event. Not once has a child given way, or said thank you - they’re running round like it’s their world.

It’s not. Not yet.

No more. Let the little shits ricochet when this grown up stands firm. Good for core strength too.
