Pretty much every one of these studies comes up with similar results.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. Results showed that close to half of the participants secured housing, and nearly $600K saved in public service costs due to fewer ER visits & jail stays. They also saw improved mental health.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants had housing.www.yahoo.com Participants in Denver's basic income program received up to $1,000 a month. They became more housing secure and landed full-time jobs.

Clearly the idea of a big, constantly running nuclear power plant appeals to modern unmoored men's pining for unchanging security and stability. In an increasingly fluid and unnerving world where men no longer have the control they once did, baseload is safe, like when the kids didn't talk back.

It's pretty weird to see votes for racist parties being a rebuke to establishment parties that are also incredibly racist

I don't think there ever been a good Donald Trump impersonation. It's just not possible. It's like comedy poison to try.

How many of these "made in the ACT" stickers you reckon there are in the whole store

As a non coffee drinker with lifelong sleep apnea, I was always tired in the mornings and I never believed any of you about needing coffee to function. I thought you were all just exaggerating and felt exhausted and foggy but ultimately functional in the mornings like I did.

I enjoy when cats are adjacent

About a month ago the landlord of the place we just moved out of tried to hit us up for 4500 dollars "compensation", 3x the bond. That is, half the cost for them replacing a pretty destroyed 14-year-old carpet, and doing a full sand-down repaint job on every wall and ceiling surface.

It's so fucked up that you can buy a basic wired keyboard for 7.50. Like it's "can have a kilo of capsicums or a new keyboard" ass economy

The concern about 'birthrates' reaching mainstream attention is one of the most ominous signifiers happening right now

the reform party provided me with an absolute gold mine of cranks and weirdos, one of my favorites is the guy who believed the end times were upon us but still really cared about eliminating the federal deficit for some reason

despite a DECADE of work, countless live events, 350 tinglers written well before large language models were a thing, there are still people who cannot imagine someone like me could exist. it is a strange place to be. not just part of me, but my entire EXISTENCE is often gatekept

Writing this week about the massively increased prevalence of short breaks between games this season, to try to unravel their impact on results and which clubs are affected this year. A lot of collaboration with Emlyn Breese (credittodubois.com) and I think some good findings!

Today we've taken a look at centre bounce play - bit of a deep dive charting a number of new things. Turns out the Eagles have been doing interesting things out of the middle for a few years, and Harley Reid may be looming as a key. www.abc.net.au/news/2024-04...

How Eagles dare at centre bounces is a double-edged swordwww.abc.net.au Cody Atkinson and Sean Lawson examine the most basic stoppage in the game and how West Coast's approach is boosting their score but also leaving headaches for the cellar-dwellers.
