Prediction:
If and when Dan Ryan ever says anything about his racist chat buddy Brian Owendoff, he will say he didn’t weigh in earlier because he hadn’t had a chance to talk to Owendoff directly first.
He will not see or grasp how this makes it worse.

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

Alright so I haven’t gotten paid for two months and haven’t lined up anymore work.
Really need more help, and I hate to ask for it.
I was supposed to be making $1200 a month by now but due to trump defunding my job I’m making nothing.
Goal is $500.

When I emailed Wilson’s office with my concerns in October, they responded with boilerplate talking points that suggested I was wrong to question how they are failing to provide the services people actually need and want.

These shelters are not providing adequate food, disrespecting trans folks, failing to treat residents in need, and potentially erecting more barriers to finding housing.
yup. “breakfast” at the womens shelter is often dry cereal with no milk (i can remember only once when they had canned evaporated milk to go with it but usually there is not even that), granola bars and oatmeal packets. they’ve only ever had salad at dinner one time when a county health bus visited.

the shelters aren’t about helping people. it’s a real estate scheme. they’re building more shelters because someone is getting paid for it and that person probably helped to fund keith wilson’s mayoral campaign.

if you go to a crowded holiday market where no one is masked and you don’t bother to mask either and then you get covid i don’t know how you can be surprised. it’s a no-brainer. i swear folk’s cognitive dissonance has only increased a 1,000–fold since 2020. it’s not over and you‘re not special.
