It seems like it should be intuitively obvious that in a capitalist society having even the tiniest amount of capital would lead to positive results?
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

The November boxes from @rainbowcrate.bsky.social with both RAD and the RC boxes. I adore the sprayed edges on these so much. Shroom For Improvement really is just so stunning. Photos don't even cut it.

Good morning everyone! I am in the process of building a reading challenge next year centered around Environmental Justice Reading and Climate Anxiety! While those prompts are in the works designed to build on one another from a wide over view to intense depth. I have more photos incoming!

Finished reading this last week as well. Hood Feminism is a great read for those who are new to feminism or looking to add a new layer of understanding to their practice.
