CA Gov Newsom's loan of state highway patrol officers to understaffed #Oakland last yr resulted in confiscation of 139 #firearms, and over 1400 arrests. To continue the cooperation, Gov has reached out to #OPD and city officials demanding the city change it's strict vehicular pursuit policy that he believes is hindering #LawEnforcement and making the city a magnet for criminal conduct.
Over the past year, #CHP patrol cars conducted almost 2 chases a day of suspects while Oakland's own larger #Police presence, participated in little over 1 a wk.
City officials follow the restraints of their decade old "no pursuit" #policy that was adopted to create trust with “low income and people of color”, and has reduced dangerous hi-speed chases that resulted in tragic and expensive civilian injury incidents, and chases that ultimately had little impact on conviction rates or total crimes committed.
As #PolicePursuits and associated arrests in Oakland decreased significantly, critics say the corresponding large jump in citywide #CrimeRate has created a perfect climate for lawbreakers to run wild.
Meanwhile a city with an ever increasing number of closed corporate HQs, empty commercial storefronts, stadiums & hotels, finds out the resulting falling tax ba$e from stagnant #PropertyValues that then further thin out public school budgets and other public services all tell the tortuous tale.

#HomeOwnership #PropertyValues #GenX #Affordability
Five years ago today, I purchased my home in the foothills of the #coastrange in #Oregon. It's a 2,000 square foot home with 1/3 of an acre, allowing me to do plenty of #gardening, gaining #foodsecurity from whatever I can grow - and getting fresh #eggs from our #chickens.
I'm a farm girl, so it's good to be back in the country.
It wasn't the first time I'd purchased a house (we purchased one in the UK back in 2007 with an interest-only loan, just before the market crashed). In that case, we purchased the home, sat underwater for year after year, and sold it in 2015 for the same kind of price we purchased it for (with most of our profit eaten up by taxes and fees).
Here in the U.S., things were different. First, my wife and I were only able to buy the house because:
1) My late sister left me enough money in her will to clear my student debt and some of our consumer debt and..
2) The company my wife landed a job with when we emigrated was acquired, carrying with it a pretty nice singing bonus that matured just before we purchased our house. That was our down payment.Were it not for that, we'd never have been in a position to buy.
But now, let's discuss the fact that since purchase, our house value has increased somewhere between 40% and 60% in value, depending on where you get your data.
Today, it would, 100%, be outside of our affordability, despite my wife having a very good job. (I'm going to ignore my income, because #TransportEvolved isn't earning enough these days to allow me to pay myself a salary).
The local town now has starter homes starting at $590,000, with *most* of them starting closer to $750,000. STARTER HOMES...
At the same time, two of my team are paying NEARLY as much a month on renting TINY sub-1,000 square foot apartments as we're paying on our mortage. And, like I said, I had to lose a dear sister to be able to afford this place.
What... The... Actual... Fuck... Are... We... Doing?
We need affordable homes. NOW.

Sydney's mass tree vandalism
“This is happening all over the country, all of the time.""A disjunct between weak punishment and the crime, a colonial-settler impulse to control native bush, an overriding sense, perhaps, that public property has less value than private – impels them, regardless, to vandalise majestic trees."
"The novelist and celebrated nature writer James Bradley says the “hatred of trees” is a settler-colonial legacy of the desire to impose order on the natural landscape and a symptom of increased alienation from nature."
“Trees have helped shape and sustain human cultures for hundreds of thousands of years. Many Indigenous cultures recognise this with systems of reciprocity that connect them to trees, within which trees are not just living beings, but actually relatives or kin. That connection has been disrupted by the processes of extraction that have seen most of the world’s forests cleared, and the hostility to trees you hear when people complain about their messiness, or them blocking their view."
“The more science learns about trees, the more we realise that even though they exist upon quite different timescales to humans, they are beings, with the ability to communicate and learn. And that they aren’t just good for the environment, they’re good for us, and just being around them makes us calmer, improves our mood, and makes us feel more connected to the world around us.”
