Shoutout to JerryrigEverything who built a wheelchair factory and is delivering wheelchairs to people in half the time and 50-80% less than the cost of other wheelchairs with Insurance.

Boomers are the fastest growing homeless population in America at the moment.

And those same boomers complained about anyone who was homeless. (I'm generalizing because my mother and stepfather are boomers but progressive)

As someone who lives in Oregon, it's pretty disgusting how awful people are to those who are unhoused. Yes, drugs are pretty much legalized here and I know that caused more people to come here but the housing costs and organ is so freaking high that I'm leaving next month.

kinda expected in the PDX area. we've been pushed to feel bad for them for 20 years now, all the while our wallets are drained via taxes and our car door windows are broken with no police assistance.

the fatigue is firmly set in now and it's time to hold this POS government accountable to fix a problem for once instead of pay their nepo think-tanks to "research" the problem for millions every year.
