Seems to me that cutting their homeless in half is doubling their problem.

 

I'd say that it probably was $2.99 or $3.49 around here, before prices started to go up. I bet that CNN didn't check the prices from before either.

Agreed, and even then, the math don't add up with the average adult consuming 18 gallons per year, meaning that that particular family triples the average consumption. Terrible, terrible reporting.

Not to mention that republicans want to gut every form of assistance for families, and allowed the child credit to expire.

My wife's best friend from high school used to live in San Antonio, and we visited her a few times in the 2000s, and I remember being tempted to move there because things were very very cheap, not only groceries, but homes and clothes. I guess that now that Florida is basically on par regarding republicanism, it would not hurt much to move there, as long as you are OK with the electric grid giving up during the peaks of summer and winter.

 

But permanently fixing the problem.

Texas has little to no zoning laws, which makes housing very cheap there.

I wouldn’t want to go as far as they do, but zoning is a tool for increasing wealth inequality and exclusion and systemic racism and all kinds of other bad shit.

Investigating investigators is what authoritarians do. When they gain full control of the state, they also jail and kill those who can expose them. That's what Mussolini did in 1924. @joshtpm

Overheard:

'Following the vote, House Foreign Affairs member Ken Buck, R-Colo., was overheard in an elevator calling it the “stupidest vote in the world.” Fellow Rep. Mike Simpson, R-Idaho, agreed and added that all it does is make Omar a “martyr." 'https://t.co/cjcwdolvj1

Why else indeed

World-famous woman-whisperer @TuckerCarlson is so down with the ladies that he deciphered @MichelleObama's code for "I'm running for president" before she announced. Why else, asks Tuck, would she use the word "menopause?" https://t.co/QcGmGmnK0s

The Pentagon says there’s a Chinese spy balloon flying over the U.S., which is why more people should be having outdoor sex. Give ‘em a good show, kids.

Goddamn I’m pissed I didn’t think of this first

I don't know much about music and constantly confuse song lyrics, but isn't it true that we are currently 98 balloons short of a nuclear holocaust?

My favorite fact about the Soviet Union is that it sent a man into space in 1961, eight years before toilet paper became commercially available to its citizens.

Mt Washington windy AF

NERD ALERT...the atmospheric heights will be SO LOW tonight, anyone living above 4,000 ft or so (hello top of Mount Washington) will be in a different atmospheric layer entirely, the stratosphere! This layer is typically 4-12 miles up, but tonight it will be less than a mile! pic.twitter.com/6l6BjE05ZW

Boebert mentioned all the violent times in US Capitol and no mention of Jan 6

Gallego in his rebuttal pointed out he noticed “my Colorado colleague omitted Jan 6”

And she interrupts and says “yes it was very tragic when Ashli Babbitt was murdered”

It’s official. Trump has made the entire Republican Party an insane Taliban. Just driving around in trucks with flags shooting at the sky and ignorantly screaming about how it’s all for god while subjugating women and burning books and shunning all institution and modern society
