A #transwoman is in immediate need of #mutualaid on Oct 7th 2023!

Lavender Onyxheart is local to #SanAntonio, is #homeless, and is looking for assistance with her move into her new Air BNB for temporary housing. This will take all day.

Let's do our part and commit to trans mutual aid by sharing her post in our circles and help her find someone to help her move. She does not have a car and would need a person with a MEDIUM size vehicle and to spend the day with her from 11am (check out) to 3pm (check in) to ensure the safety of both her and her things. Lunch will be provided in the downtime between check out / in!

Please contact @nicoleonyxheart on TWITTER (http://x.com/nicoleonyxheart) preferably in DM or DM me and I will get you in touch with her! THANK YOU SO MUCH for reading and helping in any way you can! Sharing is caring! ❤️

**BONUS** I will also provide one full body colour sketch (examples at http://queue.ovaettr.gay) as a request to whoever decides to donate their time to Lavender. Please contact me for redeeming this request ONLY if you are serious and can help her!! Thank you!!! ❤️

this Portland resident is getting ready to sell his house. He says part of the reason is the city wont remove an illegally parked RV that's been sitting across the street for over a year. The man living in the RV says he's a veteran, and as soon as he gets his pension, he's out of here

In better times, I had a #Discord Nitro subscription (cringe I know). Mostly for the boosts to support my friend's brand at the time.
Well, I canceled it but got billed anyway. So I filed a request for a refund and showed the receipts. Like I have the email showing it was canceled.
They won't refund it even though it's within the window according to their own policy. I didn't think Discord Inc would knowingly steal from a #homeless person but here we are.

So I'm deleting my Discord and staying off permanently. I recommend others do the same.

It's a sketchy app that sucks up to #VC and harvests all your data. It stores all your messages unencrypted which means you're one hack away from having all your personal life aired out. Besides, in this new #AI age let's just stop using these surveillance-capitalist platforms before the tech bros manage to create Skynet or whatever.

Do you really need a multimillion dollar corporation to handle your chats? No! We're perfectly capable of chatting with friends without being exploited by VC tech bros.

I'm a human, not a product! And so are you! Delete your Discord account!

Important details about this UBI cash transfer to homeless study:
1. It was preregistered, meaning they committed to how they would analyze the data, before the data was collected, which means no cherry-picking measures that give the expected results.
2. They screened out 2/3rds(!) of potential enrollees due to mental health or substance abuse.

A Kid sees a #homeless person and thinks:
- Where does this person sleep?
- How does it cook or eat?
- Where does it have a shower?
Can't we help?

An adult sees a homeless person and thinks:
- Why does this person have no employment?
- Why does it have no family to help?
- Why does it get no state support?
Better not to help!

This I call successful #education and sometimes the expropriation of our #feelings by education.

Hello Aethy! Finally have another GoFundMe update!! Please click the link above, or read below! Thank you as always for helping us out and boosting my posts. ♡

"Hello everyone!! Again, so sorry for such a long time between updates, but again, a lot has happened!

Some good stuff:
-We made it to Colorado!!!
-My partner started his job!!
-He also got his first check!
-The weather has been GORGEOUS out here!
-We're safe (enough)!!

Some not so good stuff:
-Intermittently sleeping out of our car slash at shitty hotels, which is unfortunately cutting DEEP into our funds that we had saved and also cutting into my partner's pay he's getting.
-We're still sleeping like this because WE CANNOT FIND A ROOM TO RENT. People are either charging nearly twice as much or are refusing outright to rent to us. Somehow the same goddamn problem we were facing in Illinois.
-Our credit is terrible so we can't rent an apartment, which would be fine and fixable IF SOMEONE WOULD RENT A ROOM TO US.
-I cannot get work yet without knowing where we'll be settled, as I rely on my partner for transportation.

The biggest takeaway from this is that we ARE unfortunately sleeping out of our car often and when we DO get a hotel room for a few nights, it is VERY expensive. The cheaper end of hotel rooms, without being in a complete shithole starts around $80/night.

We still need help to afford to rent hotel rooms more frequently and for longer periods so we can properly rest, especially my partner. Better rest means a better ability to tackle the ongoing hunt for a place to live.

PLEASE, IF YOU HAD THOUGHT ABOUT DONATING BEFORE AND YOU DID NOT, PLEASE CONSIDER IT NOW. This is GENUINELY crunchtime, and if it's happening, please let it happen now.

As always, I cannot thank you all enough, and I'm so grateful to everyone that has helped.

Please give this a fresh share, and know that the money will be used to keep us out of our car and in a bed, safe, while we continue to hunt down the next part of our journey!!"

https://www.wfyi.org/news/articles/daytime-tent-ban-in-bloomington-parks-takes-effect

The real reason for this new local law was to get #homeless folks to just leave, or be legally harassed and property destroyed as a response to just live.

And it 100% goes back to your point: it **WOULD** be legal here to do that exact thing in a car, whereas the "tentcar" would be subject to fines and destruction.

So much news coverage, if it is covered at all—which it only is for the breakup of large #encampments which is one reason mayors try to displace early and often—ignores the people who are most affected entirely or treats city claims of #services offered at face value.

Looking for a room

A mural on the side of a building on North Main Street is called “What is home” and features a person wearing an Amazon box, as that’s the only accommodation they can find.

In this photo, the figure is looking sideways to the visible window on the front of the building, as if asking, “why can’t I find somewhere to live?”

'I'd have them taken down': #Trump says he removed #homeless people's tents

"I kept it beautiful," he said. "If I saw one tent or two tents or three tents as I was coming in from the airport, I'd have them taken down immediately because I knew that you'd have 100 tents and 1,000 tents if you don't do it."

Is there a way to forward this to President Biden and Governor Newsome?

Newsome is working on getting the homeless roofs to go over their heads, but California still has a long way to go. Too many local governments who describe breaking up homeless camps as "dealing with the homeless problem".

Deconstructing everything that offers intellectual support to social Darwinism & Eugenics is an ongoing battle in the US.
