  • There are strategies to

    1. Have individual homes for people to reside in; this gives people privacy, some sense of permanence, and a safe space to simply exist. This reduces the psychological stresses of simply trying to exist. This also has the upside of having a permanent address to have things like a bank account, contact point for Medicaid, etc.

    2. “Safe” access to drugs. A lot of people would be on some kind of drug. Having a safe place lets them do what they need to and have established residence to get help when they need it, like an ambulance going to an address for ODs

    3. Have medical support. Professionals can help ween off of hard drugs and/or find appropriate drugs for what ever health issues they have.

    4. Finally they can take a shower and get themselves presentable to interview for work.

    I worked adjacent to some org buying the back lot of a school to convert into this kind of housing for homeless teens; above is what I can recall when reading into the program.













  • It’s in the USA’s geopolitical interest to maintain relations with Israel.

    1. It gives them a foothold in the middle east, on the coast of the Mediterranean sea. Egypt and Turkey have too much leverage for the USA to influence them, and the other allies are all past the red sea. Israel is smartening up to the situation and taking advantage.
    2. After the messy withdrawal from Afghanistan, other states saw weakness in the USA and their allies. They need to maintain their current allies to show that they can protect all of their other relations.

    We won’t get any resolution of the situation until after elections are over. If Biden does anything, it may negatively impact the Democrat’s campaign.





  • I’m fairly new to gardening but I would look into propagating them; the rose I know can be grown from a cutting. If you move them into one or move pots you can replant them with the new fence.

    With propagation preserving the root structure doesn’t matter since it’ll grow new roots. If it’s your first time I might try to make 2 or 3 cuttings of varying sizes in case some of them don’t make it. You already have to cut it back anyway.

    Edit: Grandma approved. Spring/Fall has the best chances for the cuttings to take root.
