I was just reading about how this app, BNP, trademarked the term "buy nothing" and has been shutting down existing buy nothing groups on social media. Pretty scummy stuff, we can't have anything good
For everyone struggling, I can't recommend this resource highly enough. Everything is given freely, there is no selling/trading allowed. I've gotten everything from food, pet supplies, furniture (and given a lot of similar) I see a lot of folks sharing clothing + baby supplies

Agree. We should treat Harry Potter Adults like cybertruck owners at this point.

I have watched as so-called "compromise" positions on transgender people's rights have failed over and over--in statehouses, the Biden White House, and in liberal rhetoric. There is no middle ground acceptable to the politicians, activists, and billionaires obsessed with trans people and our lives.

Just so we’re clear…

SNAP isn’t saved yet. A judge gave the USDA until Monday to decide how or if benefits go out. They could be delayed, reduced, or partial. Nothing’s guaranteed.

Even if payments restart, states still have to reload cards and update systems, so delays are certain.

Rent stabilization is good.
In an unprecedented move, Austria is regulating rents for the entire country.

All apartments that already have government regulation have seen a total rent freeze this year.

All formerly unregulated units are also getting rent stabilization to limit landlord rent hikes.

We're excited to share that we have some additional donation drop box locations!

As always, we extend our deepest gratitude to the businesses that open their doors to the public on our behalf to collect much needed donations for our communities. Thank you so much, we can't do this work without you!
It's a sign that things are really bad tbh, we only get attention when something is going wrong

You should care about Jamaica and Sudan even if you don't know anyone there and the news isn't covering it. The anti-Blackness embedded in folks' lack of empathy is gross.

This is an especially worrying statement when facial recognition can be inaccurate, biased, and generally make mistakes. Basing whether someone should be in the US or not, and ignoring physical media like a birth certificate, is ripe for disaster bsky.app/profile/jose...
New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

A lot of places in the USA only have food banks operated by faith based organizations. And they only serve members of their congregation. So, lie. Do whatever you gotta do!
