This is a point that needs repeating. It’s fiscally conservative to house the homeless, it’s also the right thing to do.
Anderson Cooper: So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?

Answer: Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing… #HousingFirst

This statement about how Nvidia is "not Enron" raises a lot of questions about how much of an Enron they are doing right now.

So liberals at all levels are having a good crack at "most dysfunctional political party in australian history" but for those who know more than I: who really wins it.

Since apparently there is James Bond discourse, here’s the simplest way to get out this self-imposed “how do we unkill Bond” mess.

YOU DON’T *NEED* CONTINUITY, FFS

Keep the same actors for M, Moneypenny, Q, Leiter, and Lashana Lynch as 008 or whatever number.
New Bond.
Set it in the 60s.

EASY.

AUKUS really has the feel of a kickstarter that is being run for a company that has failed several previous deliveries, but this time, for sure, they'll deliver.

or a ponzi scheme. Except those end up paying money out to early investors.

Perhaps if you're going to get your nazi tattoo covered up*, take some experts to be sure the new one isn't even a little bit the sort a neonazi might get.
