Well now, today I officially begin celebrating hopefully the next 364 days to a banging good year, even if things may not always feel celebratory. I share today’s birthday happiness with thousands of people, like the late Princess Diana, Missy Elliott, Dan Aykroyd, Storm Reid, Liv Tyler, Lucas Vázquez, Debbie Harry, Andre Braugher, and Pamela Anderson, just to name a few.
So for all of you who were born in this FANbulous month, this is for you:
There’s no need to explain why
You reach, oh moonchild, to touch the stars in the sky
raise the roof, spread your wings, and boldly fly
no need to apologize because you’re born in July!

So slap on some music, put on your dancing shoes, and dance like the whole world is watching! I know I will! How crabby! 🦀♋🦀

“What is important is not so much how long you live as whether you live a meaningful life. This doesn’t mean accumulating money and fame, but being of service to your fellow human beings. It means helping others if you can, but even if you can’t do that, at least not harming them.”
Hiss Holiness the great 14th Dalai Lama

1. The criminalization of Homelessness.
You really need to sit and marinate that. Someone is homeless, and now, they can be deemed a criminal, if the local statutes say such.
The ramifications of this are staggering.
You can have people be arrested for being homeless.
You then are now placing people, whose only ‘crime’ is being homeless – WITHIN THE LEGAL SYSTEM.
How is a homeless person supposed to post bond? To get out of jail?
Because, I assure you that they won’t be released on their own recognizance.
So, here you have a population for the FOR-PROFIT PRISON INDUSTRY. How can they make a profit if their prison’s aren’t full?
What happens with homeless FAMILIES? You going to arrest the family? Throw the parent in jail, and then put their child in the foster care system?
Now, what will happen to those children? Especially, if they have younger children? What is the likelihood that those younger children will be taken from them and given to the adoption industry?
An absolute human nightmare…

Agencies have professionals with deep substantive expertise. Judges have nothing but their ideological biases. This is a renegade court usurping legislative and executive power. It is an illegitimate court.

And, for those who couldn’t be scared by The Court in 2016, when we told you it was an important reason above all else to vote for Hillary:
Bryan H., Esq. (@X_BryanH) posted at 9:55 AM on Fri, Jun 28, 2024:
The Supreme Court has:-Overturned Roe v. Wade (50+ years of precedent)
-Overturned Chevron (40 years of precedent)
-Overturned affirmative action (60+ years of precedent)
-Allowed cities to criminalize homelessness
And this is all because 1 man became president in 2016.
