Friendly reminder that offering economic support for elderly caregiving costs was part of Kamala Harris's platform. As in, she talked about "the sandwich generation" every god damn day.
“For too many in America right now, this holiday season is hardly about the art of care and joy of giving. Not when the cost of caregiving itself is a national crisis.”
The Caregiving Crisis Upon Us
It is overwhelmingly women who bear the brunt of this crisis.

HUGE NEWS from Newport: I just got off the phone with the Acting Commandant of the Coast Guard, who assured me the Coast Guard helicopter is back to stay, after enormous public pressure!
This is a win for our coastal communities, especially heading into crabbing season.

i think the inability to tell the difference between "i don't like it" and "i don't like it so i have to figure out a way to imply this thing i don't like is morally evil" is the most fundie thing i see people who are aren't technically fundie regularly do these days

There are two parts to this policy, and the nuisance fee part applies to the Macadam facility immediately.
IF the permit gets revoked (based on evidence they violated their land use permit) the entire detention fee would apply to be Macadam facility.

The new detention fee won’t immediately impact Portland’s ICE facility — it may only apply if the property owner renews the feds’ lease, which expires in 2033.

While it’s not explicitly named in the policy, the city’s U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building would be the only facility impacted.

Merriam quits the high-stakes world of lexicography to teach at a college in Springfield, MA…where Webster just became the head librarian.
She shows him that ‘love’ isn’t that hard to find…if you know where to look it up.

This is one of those things that I think is quietly important – when these people are talking shit about cities, Portland or Minneapolis or New York or Charlotte or wherever, you have to loudly say, “no, fuck you, you’re lying, that town and its people whip ass and you’re the asshole”

BREAKING: All House Democrats have signed our discharge petition to extend the ACA tax credits.
That makes 214.
We can protect health care and lower costs — if only 4 Republicans will join us.

The average American outlives the ability to drive by 6 to 10 years (men vs women). Seniors deserve cities where they can independently get around, and not be isolated.
In the Netherlands, where the Dutch invest in safe cycling, the over-65s cycle around a quarter of their journeys, while the over-80s cycle around 10% of theirs.
Low Traffic Neighbourhoods and cycle lanes don't 'restrict freedom', they expand it.

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.
