WTAF IS THE MATTER WITH YOU SORAYA?!?!? Rather than offer these people actual shelter, you propose to move them to other encampments????? And now you want to appeal the court's decision?!?!? Monster.

Migrants push UK city to breaking point as 'magnet-pulled' asylum seekers 'exploiting' local housing policies
Migrants have pushed a British city to breaking point as soaring demand piles pressure on its housing system.Glasgow has become a "magnet for asylum seekers", prompting local government watchdogs to sound the alarm over the mounting financial pressure facing the city.Under the Scottish National Party's (SNP) #homelessness rules, councils have a legal duty to provide accommodation to people assessed as #homeless, including refugees granted permission to remain in Britain after claiming asylum.Lord Offord, Leader of Reform UK Scotland, told Holyrood #homeless asylum seekers had done "significant damage" to the country and councils should "focus on housing our own local Scots in need". TRENDING Stories Videos Your Say And Reform UK Scotland's Deputy Leader Thomas Kerr told GB News: "Glasgow, where I'm sitting at the current moment, is the asylum capital of Great Britain."Critics say the SNP's 2022 decision under then-leader Nicola Sturgeon to scrap the "local connection" policy, which requir

The best AI story you probably never heard — because it worked quietly.
LA County built a model (with UCLA's California Policy Lab) that predicts who's likely to lose their housing in the next 12 months — before it happens. It pulls data across county agencies (social services, mental health, health services) and connects people to stabilizing help *upstream*, instead of waiting for the eviction notice or the ER visit.
The results:
People on the high-risk list became homeless at ~3.5x the rate of the eligible population — meaning the model actually finds the right peopleIt reaches folks who weren't connected to ANY existing prevention program
They ran an equity audit: performance was essentially identical across race, ethnicity, and gender
County-wide homelessness has now declined two years in a row (-4%)
No panic headlines. No billionaire keynote. Just prevention, transparency, and an audit. This is what ethical AI deployment looks like: model → equity audit → human services → rigorous evaluation.
Could this work in Roanoke? Our unhoused neighbors deserve upstream help, not just emergency beds. Who else in the #Roanoke region is thinking about this?

How can we ask for currency when we have already asked so much so many times?
Why don't we "just get a job"?
We believe firmly and resolutely that the work we are doing to survive will beget the ability to thrive. And in turn, the work we do to thrive will beget the ability to function. And when we have a functioning home, we can build a functioning lab. And with a functioning lab, we can build a functioning gene editing system.
Being forced to move out into an unready school bus two years ago was not just a challenge, it was a hammer blow that could have spelled the end of our efforts. It could have been easy for us to throw in the towel and return to whence we came. But we aren't like that. And freedom of any kind is not what you should just give up on, let alone freedom of form.
Although we have tried on a few occasions to find employment to supplement income and raise funds for more than just the bare minimum, we have repeatedly found that the job market is an uncaring disastrous mess that takes away more than unemployment does, because when you account for commutes, taxes and payroll fuckery, not to mention bureaucracy and sheer low wages, and the instability of gig roles, and of course AI, it becomes far more favourable to use our precious time on improving our situation directly than gamble it on that shitfest.
Do we feel any guilt asking for help with money? Only insomuch as those who are sending it might be putting yourselves into financial problems by doing so (please only send what you can afford to send). Because we know we are using it for the most honest purposes we can, unlike so many other possible places that money could have gone. And one day our work may help you.
And one day maybe we will see the end of capitalism and not need arbitrary tokens of exchange for basic goods and services.
But, for now, we are thousands of dollars behind where The System needs us to be, so if any of you have encountered a windfall of late and wouldn't mind splitting some of it in our direction, or if you have some pocket change amount left over in your Paypal or Cashapp, please feel free to help us along a little more.

#Money, the interesting thing about it is if you #exist in #poverty, you desperately need it for your day to day survival, then if your on the opposite end as in being a multi million or billionaire in reality money means nothing, because everything you own and do is leveraged off of debt that you one don't actually own and second can never actually satisfy, and the rules of the game are very different for those in poverty, and the rules are slightly different if your in the middle, but if your on top, the rules don't apply to you unless somehow your generation and hoarding of wealth imposes upon another top income holder, basically if your in poverty all the way to the bottom end of double digit millions, your beholden to the entire state if it where, and beyond that the entire state apparently is beholden to you and your ability to leverage debt, it is a rigged system of epic inequality and strongly embraces prejudice against the rest of us whom simply would appreciate the basics in life to be readily available without so much turmoil, and stress to our mental and physical wellbeing, money is an illusion of power and has left far to many of us going hungry, literally;
