Unrelated, but I'm looking for some help with a project I'm trying to get off the ground over the next month or so. Our city budget hearing season is coming up where you can go to budget hearings and give input into the city's discretionary budget. But really since it's one of the few accessible ways to get in front of every city council member, you can gripe about anything. Last year we did this as a group in my neighborhood to get a stretch of a street rebuilt that has been neglected for two decades and has caused a lot of problems for people. We as a group hit up all of the almost 30 hearings to make our voice heard. This year I want to organize a coalition to push for comprehensive and compassionate solutions to the growing homeless situation in our city.

tl;dr:

If you know of any articles, resources, etc, that other cities or communities have done to combat homelessness, please send them my way.

I don't want to show up and just say "fix homelessness". But I need to educate myself more.

In a day full of meetings the most exciting part of my day was seeing shizz user johnmfer in a Slack channel.

That's wild, dude! I definitely couldn't stay up that long anymore.

my life is so much better for hearing this, but now i just want all their songs in SM64

Good lord this has set me up for a good day.

Finally decided to start watching Better Call Saul this afternoon, since all four seasons are on there now and I can DVR the 5th one...anyway four episodes in and I’m already super hooked. It probably helps that I’m already invested in Saul and Mike thanks to Breaking Bad, but yeah. Can’t wait to see where it goes.

BCS is better than BB in my opinion. Saul / Jimmy, his brother, and the rest of the cast  is just so much more interesting than Walt and his family.
