  1. Contributor: When will L.A.'s #veterans finally get the housing they were promised?

    Jon Duffy, November 10, 2026

    "An annual count in January put the number of #HomelessVeterans across most of Los Angeles County at 2,257, down 26% from the year before. That decline is welcome. It's harder to explain why veterans have twice had to sue their government over housing on land donated for that very purpose.

    "In the first suit, filed in 2011, homeless veterans with severe disabilities challenged the VA's leases to outside groups on the 387-acre #WestLosAngeles VA campus in #BrentwoodCA. They argued that without a place to live near the #VAHospital, they couldn't get the care they needed. The VA settled in 2015. The plan that followed that settlement called for 1,200 homes to be built on the campus.

    "More than a decade later, the VA is still working toward that goal."

  3. CW: silly (looong) rant about axed yuri

    re-read Arai Sumiko's "My Female Friend Comes Home to Me Every Now and Again" and it makes me so so SO angry to know this got essentially axed just because, out of any of her work, the green yuri was the one to break out.

    Sumiko's oneshots, such as "The Real Momoka" or "What Happened After the Flood", have both great writing and amazing art. and "My Female Friend" was, judging from its first two chapters, shaping up to be a great, angsty manga, fitting right in with "There is No Love Wishing Upon a Star" or "My Blue Garnet," and yet it just got cut short because [- controversial rant about green yuri here (we don't have time to get into it) -].

    on one hand, i'm very very glad that Sumiko gets to do a job she loves, and that she's as successful as she is, esp. at a level that very very *very* few mangakas get to enjoy. i truly believe that she has the potential to become the next Yuni or the next tmfly. but it's also a little hard not to feel resentment at the fact her earlier work, which is in my opinion much better, didn't and *still* doesn't get the attention it deserves. you could argue that "life's just unfair like that" but that won't calm me down, that won't stop the anger and the pain and the sadness. and it's not like it's cancer; it's far from just random chemical processes: it's actual people making choices while being influenced by a culture around them. [- continue ranting (really i wish i could get into it but you'll have to get me pretty socially drunk to get this one out of me) -]

    this sucks. i'm just left feeling like one of those entitled, bitter fans that didn't get the ending they wanted to their favorite show. this sucks.

    (and it hurts so much more that the green yuri is now just the representative for yuri in general, far surpassing previous title-holder "Bloom Into You" in terms of popularity)

  4. You haven't been following #MissKitty very long cuz you would already know answer to your query. 1. I did the end of #homelessness by hand the first time. There is no need to bother with doing it by hand again once you have the gold standard. 2. As long as there is money, there is no better answer.

  6. #WyrdWednesday It is said that a farmer coming home tipsy from Widecombe Fair one night met the Devil & his hounds & was so bold as to ask how the hunt had gone. Smiling evilly the Devil handed him a sack, and when he got home & opened it found it contained the body of his own baby.

  7. I've had a relatively large number of people in my home helping out with stuff. I thought flirty Fred would be the one eventually coming out for head rubs, but no, the resident greeter/supervisor/head-scratch-tax-collector cat is.... Murder Kitty!

    "She's so friendly! That name seems incorrect!"

    No blood was drawn, but people who can't read her when she gets overstimulated got some warning teeth and slaps.

    I'm amazed. She's come so far in the last 3 years!

    Also, I've been sick so she's been parked in my lap.

  8. If you are new to conversation with #MissKitty for more than a couple of days, you're not aware that the directory at the top of my profile is filled with the answer to #homelessness. Just read the #conclusions and executive #summaries at least. You will shit when you read how easy it is. 🔦🔦🔦

  11. #KansasCityMO - Nearly 100 volunteers paint #TinyHomes for formerly #HomelessVeterans

    By Claire Decatur
    Published: Oct. 28, 2026 at 7:21 PM EDT

    KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - "Dozens of volunteers spent their lunch hour on a mission.

    "Nearly 100 people with Veterans United Foundation Teams spent the day at the Veterans Community Project. They painted the tiny homes in the village to give them new life.

    "The tiny homes serve as transitional housing for formerly homeless veterans. The homes are specifically designed for people living with #PTSD according to the organization.

    " 'For me personally, a lot of my experiences and my service were just small details, just doing work, just kinda knocking out little tasks that all contribute to the larger mission, right, same thing here. Coming out, doing the painting and some of the manual labor that helps insure that these homes are in the best shape for the veterans that are here,' Baxter Nickels, Veterans United Home Loans, said.

    "Other volunteers from the group are also running the project’s monthly #FoodPantry for the Veterans Community Project."

  15. Because they're not used to him staying home on a Wednesday, #IHopeJohnRoberts gets to explain #VeteransDay to his seven magical giant rat children, and they ask him why people respect veterans, so he explains that they are people who bravely risked their lives in really important causes, like fighting racism in the Civil War or fascism in World War II, and then his rat children ask him whether he ever served in the military and he has to say no, and then the smallest rat child, D'Artagnon, asks whether at least he has bravely fought racism and fascism as a judge, and because he never ever wants to lie to his rat children he admits candidly that no, actually he's pretty much spent his whole legal career either empowering or at least ignoring racism and fascism so they can grow unimpeded by the justice system, and then his sincere precious beautiful fuzzy-faced rat children look very very confused and sad and he feels bad about himself too and Veterans Day is basically ruined.

Und somit teilen sich die Stunden in Blöcke, zerfasern, wachsen, überlagern einander und die anderen Lücken, die Leere, die man dazwischen gern weiß. Noch fehlt der Erfolg. Aber es gibt eine Idee einer Idee. Das allein motiviert oft.

  17. Finally found a good solution for local access to my Remeha hybrid heatpump: github.com/mcc-tweakers/esphom

    It works over BLE, so your Remeha device needs to support that, or you need to buy the Remeha Home Hub device (which I did). All devices supported by the latter should be supported by the aforementioned ESPHome component (I have an Elga Ace All-in-One).

    Still need to work on making it work as a proper thermostat within Home Assistant.

    Also, make sure to clone the repo locally, as I've personall been hit by Remeha cease&desist threats before…

    I'm instead going to Delhi directly on 12, out of guilt that I only spent 5 days at home for #Diwali

  21. Done sorting through this pile. Not as much usable stuff as I hoped, some of it was too far gone and much of it was junk to begin with. Some good pieces though and a little firewood.

    Also half a skeleton for Roxy. Not sure what, small but with long rear legs and a spine. The rest was missing. Probably an unfortunate racoon dog. She loved it and dragged it around the meadow for an hour.

    Few more planks to resaw, hopefully just enough for covering the foundation.
