Instead of my usual Friday shift with @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social , I got my 2nd shingles shot and went to the dentist. Then sat on the porch working on hygiene kits and listening to @mskellymhayes.bsky.social . Just what I needed. organizingmythoughts.org/burnout-is-n...

Coats, hand warmers, waterproof gloves, ski masks, emergency blankets (annoying as blankets but ideal taped inside the walls of a tent reflecting the heat back in), dollars for other heat-related items! We can use it all!
i am alternating between unmitgated wordless wrath and furious emotional displacement purchasing for @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social
gotta do something with this, but the only meaningful thing i've come up with is that it's freezing out now, and a lot of people need a coat.

Thinking today how homelessness runs through this story, through Epstein's (Virginia Guiffre had been homeless before meeting him), and even through Gaiman's (his nanny was sleeping on the beach when Palmer recruited her, and he used threats of homelessness against another victim).

Like what is the point of going out of your way to sacrifice people like Sarah and Link if it doesn’t even enable you to get at people like Singal? Don’t can’t pretend you care about inciting violence and then utterly fail to actually protect against the worst perpetrators.
It doesn’t really change anything about my view. We need to stop whining about hard it is and look at the outcomes. If these outcomes are the best we can do, then we haven’t actually solved a problem. We’re just pissing people off for no reason.

The reality is that your judgment has to be rooted in your values. That's what's going to determine what you reward and what you punish. And if you're not clear on your values, then they will emerge clearly through your actual actions. In short, Link is banned, Jesse Singal is not. So now we know.

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

The work we do at @avalonhousing.bsky.social is a housing first, permanent supportive housing model; organizations like ours are being targeted for actually implementing the evidence-based practices known to help our neighbors survive. This punitive desire has already been tried and fails miserably
Housing First approaches to homelessness, that prioritize getting a stable roof over people's heads before addressing trauma from the streets & other issues, prove to lead to long term stability. Rounding every homeless person up for forced mental health care which is incarceration is not the way!
I'm a mad person who's lived on the streets & knows a lot of mad people & I know that people like me are disproportionately inclined to homelessness & I don't like when that gets taken out of the conversation. But our reality is that late stage American capitalism can push anyone to the streets.
