In addition to all the above, I found a weighed blanket really helped me. Make sure your room is very dark, pitch black. If it is not, upgrade your blinds or a sleep mask. I got one that's simple and cotton and it works wonders.

Now its winter I also have a heated blanket.

I'm really scared for future elections when the GOP has a candidate that is actually charismatic or articulate....

I went without Prime for >1 year. I just online shopped directly from manufacturer if I can and paid shipping if free shipping not available. I minimized use of amazon only if I had $35 in my cart for the free shipping.

However, I know I am privileged enough to do so.

I honestly would encourage everyone not to have Prime though. Its like what $150+ now for a year? Save that money and wait until your cart is $35. If you cannot wait, you can pay for shipping (assuming $7) x20+ times before you make up price of that $150 for Prime.

Its still insane how many active users they have compared to Mastodon. BTW its 500+ million to Mastodons 1 million. Pretty insane number comparison

Besides overhead I wonder if they are including staff like case managers or something to assist these individuals in adjusting? I hope so. Transitioning out of homelessness is important too.

The article did speak about "subcontractors"

This. I now almost never buy beef jerky unless its SMC Jerky because I tried their beef jerky once 10 years ago at like a farmers market or something. I almost exclusively eat these and Ajays Montana Bananas. For SMC Jerky, Honey Glazed thin cuts are my fav and Ajay's their teriyaki is the best.

Social workers are all recommended to have a personal therapist for themselves. And its possible for the personal therapist to also have social work degree

This. At least there is an attempt and you're not left wondering. Rejection also isnt a bad thing. Its honesty. Rather someone be honest with me then dwell on "could be" "maybes" and just false hope as someone down the thread mentioned.
