Illinois Governor JB Pritzker has signed a bill that is aimed at fighting homelessness.

Called “Home IL,” it will bring state agencies, nonprofit organizations and other advocates together. The bill focuses on an equity-based approach, which includes the voices and contributions of those who have experience homelessness.

It codifies the collaboration to move Illinois to “functional zero” homelessness by bolstering the safety net, targeting high-risk populations, expanding affordable housing, securing financial stability for unhoused individuals and closing the mortality gap.

“Every person deserves access to safe shelter and the dignity that comes with housing,” Pritzker said. “This is a first-of-its-kind multi-agency cooperative effort — bringing together state agencies, nonprofit organizations, advocates, and people with lived experience to prevent and end homelessness. I’m grateful for their dedication and believe that together, we can prevent and end homelessness once and for all.”

Rockford has already taken strides in this aspect. In 2017, it became the first community to reach “functional zero” levels among veterans and the chronically homeless.

Illinois’ Interagency Task Force and Community Advisory Council works across 17 state departments and agencies, as well as over 100 processes, programs and policies, to develop a comprehensive plan to combat homelessness.

The goal of the plan is to prevent shelter entry or ensure that shelter stays are limited and lead to quick transitions into stable living situations.

Pritzker has also committed about $360 million for the initiative in his FY24 budget. These investments include:

• $118 million to support unhoused populations seeking shelter and services, including $40.7 million in the Emergency and Transitional Housing Program.

• $50 million in Rapid ReHousing services for 2,000 households, including short-term rental assistance and targeted support for up to two years.

• $40 million in Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) Capital funds to develop 90+ new PSH units providing long term rental assistance and case management.

• $37 million in Emergency Shelter capital funds to create more than 460 non-congregate shelter units.

• $35 million for supportive housing services, homeless youth services, street outreach, medical respite, re-entry services, access to counsel, and other shelter diversion supports.

• $21.8 million to provide homelessness prevention services to approximately 6,000 more families.

• $30 million for court-based rental assistance.

• $15 million to fund Home Illinois Innovations Pilots.

• $12.5 million to create 500 new scattered site PSH units.

“People experiencing the trauma of housing instability are our neighbors and community members who deserve to be treated with humanity and dignity. With this cooperative effort, Illinois is ensuring our state agencies can continue to collaborate, and that stakeholders are at the table with us, to support our most vulnerable in living healthy, well, and with dignity.” Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton said. “Our state is making it clear that we will continue to work together so we can all move forward, and we will focus on holistic strategies that bring us closer to ending homelessness in our state.”

Love (cannot emphasis how much sarcasm there is in that word) that an official Canadian government response to high cellphone rates is to switch carriers.

Switch it to what? We basically have three companies since one was allowed to eat the forth (with the government saying it wasn't anti-competition and the company eating the other pinky promising they wouldn't jack rates up). Even the smaller companies have to rent infrastructure from the Big Three so there's only so much they can do if that rent costs an arm and a leg.

And that's not touching on how many "small companies" are actually just subsidiaries of the Big Three. You may save $5 but you're still with Telus/Rogers/Bell.

Or that the actual small companies tend to have shit coverage because they don't have the infrastructure available to them and are prevented from getting it. Or their traffic is throttled in favour of the Big Three's customers. Or both.

Or that they're extremely regional thus aren't an option for a huge chunk of Canada's population.

We have no true options and the government has shown time and again that they're fine with monopolies, in multiple industries, and don't care when said monopolies jack up prices to make shareholders and the c-suite more money at the expense of everyone else. At most there will be a verbal slap on the wrist and a giftcard for $25 that people have to register for, for a decade and a half of price gouging.

It's not talked a whole lot about outside the country from what I've seen and heard but Canada is a country of monopolies. A handful of companies own nearly everything, every province has a family or two that owns a hell of a lot (Nova Scotia is basically owned by one family at this point), and our government ignores it. Even the branch that is supposed to be against monopolies is fine with mergers and takeovers in most cases.

Because, you know, the company said it totally wouldn't use consumers' lack of options to increase prices.

#canada #so much of our infrastructure and critical construction such as housing #has been pawned off for decades to private companies #and i forgot to mention one (1) family owns the bridge that is a major international corridor between canada and the us #which is apparently fine even though they fought tooth and nail to stop a bridge they don't own from being built #like our housing crisis can be traced back to the government deciding to stop building public housing in the 90s #because they figured private developers would pick up the slack #affordable apartments don't bring in much money so we got decades of cheap-ass 'luxury condos' instead #and once airbnb became a thing we got entire buildings with units <300sqft #and of course when the party in charge rotates between conservatives and neolibs nothing changes and that can gets kicked down the road #and keeps getting kicked until something collapses and they see the chance to fully privatize an industry #something similar is happening to our healthcare system too #it has been left to languish for years/decades with funding freezes and cuts #and private companies are quick to jump in and get the government stamp of approval to do [thing] that the public system clearly can't do #when [thing] would absolutely be possible if it was actually funded and/or staffed #so many communities were cut off when greyhound closed up shop because there's no government inter-city transportation #we lost internet/banking/cell service/etc nation-wide because one of the big three decided to push an update to live without redundancies #and it bugged and took the entire company's network down #even the government agency that demands major companies have a backup on a different network was taken down because they ignored that #and they got a deal if they kept their backup with rogers while their main network was also rogers #so they couldn't even make an emergency statement or anything about it #half my province also lost all digital infrastructure because it's a private company and making a redundancy line would mean smaller bonuse #it's just so bad #joke all you want about how canada is nice and friendly #but you are wrong and it's hell if you actually live here #the only reason canada is seen as nice is because it's hard to not seem like the better option when the us is your neighbour #and because of decades of pr work to make canada seem friendly and nice and not at all problematic #in some countries you actually have to try to hide you're canadian because of how much we colonize and the damage we do to other countries #yes these tags have derailed from the post but ugh #i take major issue with people who insist canada is nice and has never done anything wrong

Astrology observations Ⅱ

Hi there! This is the second part of my astro observations. If you haven't checked out the first part, then you may want to take a look after reading this post!

These are only my personal maden observations. If something doesn't resonate with you, see that astrology is complex and we're all unique individuals who use the sign's energy differently. Also some planets' energies are more dominant in the chart than others and they even work differently in every chart.

✧ Mars in Taurus has a really good and an accurate gut feeling. Mars is responsible of energy, drive, passions and actions. Mars is also about personal strategies, what they are and how you follow them. Known as one of the most grounded sign, following the senses comes naturally to them. Venus tules the sign Taurus, which belongs to the category of benefic planets and as a planet, it's particularly sensual. Venus has an influence to their Mars and through this, makes them sensually aware. ♂️

Earth signs are generally in touch with the nature, which gives them a good gut feeling and/or intuition!

✧ Pluto conjuct MC/in the tenth house holds lots of power, especially the power of their own. In the public eye, they may seem kind of intimidating. Their presence is noticeable. They could have an influence on others, because they are perceived as authoritarive and significant. Also, they're possibly the most dominant person in social circles. Generally, they have what it takes to be a tough leader. As they're seen as authoritarive, problems with authority or following the rules usually comes with this placement. This can cause also problems with being in control, especially if Pluto is one of the most dominating celestial body in one's birth chart. A sense of importance may cause them using too much power, even taking more power for themselves from others. Too much power in hands of an individual makes people good at manipulating, and in this case Pluto conjuct MC/in the tenth house could indicate a person with the abilities of a master manipulator. They have a strong sense of ego and its death and rebirth often affects others around them. This Pluto is independent and a bit detached. They really value their freedom and they should remember to respect the freedom of others as well.

My sister has this placement. She also has Uranus in the first house, which makes her kind of uncontrollable by other people. She usually has that look in her face that nothing will really make her back out or even scare her (even if the situation is exact opposite). I have Pluto descending and I no longer wonder why others have been wondering that why are we so different from our natures haha.

✧ In synastry, any planet (often the malefic ones) conjuct South Node somehow triggers the South Node person. The connection could make them both feel drained by other's presence, which is a result of multiple shared past lives. They have shared karma from (a) past life/lives and both they are meant to teach and to take something from each other. They have missing lessons that weren't learned previous lifetime(s). During this lifetime, these lessons must be learned so their souls may begin continuing the spiritual growth. It's vital for greater self-awareness and for their own life path. These kind of karmic connections usually aren't meant to last the whole lifetime.

Still, these connections are as important as all connections. Every individual in your life has something to bring and to take from you for growth in their and in your own spiritual path. Let's appreciate the importance of every being's presence in your life. 🤍

What is the closest military base to the white house?

The White House IS a military installation.

It is the home and workplace of the Commander-in-Chief of United States military forces, so that alone makes it an important command and control headquarters. The various branches of the military have an active role in the everyday logistics of running the White House campus and supporting the Executive Office of the President. The White House's complex and extensive communications agency is staffed by members of each individual branch of the military. The U.S. Navy is responsible for the White House Mess and providing food services to the President, the First Family, any potential guests, and the President's staff. The White House Medical Unit is staffed by military doctors who have a round-the-clock presence in the White House and the official Physician to the President is usually an active-duty military officer.

While the Secret Service -- which includes the traditional plainclothes agents and the more visible uniformed division -- is responsible for protecting the President, his family, and the White House itself, the military also has a protective footprint in and around the White House complex. It's believed that amongst the White House's protective measures -- most of which are highly classified -- are anti-aircraft defenses, which are almost certainly manned by the military rather than the Secret Service. Marine Corps guards also are stationed at the White House (often seen opening and closing doors while manning the entry and exit points around the West Wing) as sentries and sometimes act as military valets during events hosted by the President in the White House. The role of the Marine sentries is purely ceremonial as opposed to protective.

And one of the most important White House responsibilities of the military is transportation. The White House Transportation Agency is responsible for all aspects of the President's travel, and the military works in tandem with the Secret Service on planning and carrying out the immense logistical challenges of transporting the President anywhere in the world -- a challenge magnified by the sheer size of Presidential traveling parties. A Presidential motorcade consists of, on average, 50-60 vehicles. And the majority of those vehicles actually have to be transported from the United States to wherever the President is traveling -- even if it is to several different foreign countries or continents. The Air Force is, obviously, responsible for the President's plane, along with any other aircraft making the trip which are usually carrying White House staff, members of the press, or cargo. For short distances that can be made by helicopter, the Marine Corps takes the lead. And any ground travel by motor vehicles is handled by the Army.

Security and the President's personal protective detail is always led by the Secret Service, but the military is responsible for many of the day-to-day logistics of the institution of the Presidency, which illustrates why the White House is an important military command and control base.

it's insane to me how people in the US who supported an insurrection are living life but people who criticize israel for its occupation of palestine are losing their jobs, harrased, beaten, doxxed, etc.

#yeah ok some were arrested the avg sentence ended up being 60 days and most were on house arrest or got community service #meanwhile senators and reps are pushing for ppl to lose their green card or citizenship if they support palestine #like as an american you can do whatever you want to america but they draw the line at israel a foreign country that's wild

I love learning ASL it’s so good. Makes me happy to learn it. I’m so glad my university has classes for it with professors actually steeped in Deaf culture.

#blue chatter #am I good at ASL? hahahahahahaha. no.#ASL and English grammar are incredibly different and even when I remember my vocab I am easily clockable as hearing #but I do have some language capacity now. enough to communicate the basics.#and I just. genuinely really enjoy it. it’s fun to learn and engaging in a way most of my classes just aren’t.#and I can. yanno. communicate respectfully w Deaf ppl. and learn about their culture #which is incredibly important given that I want to go into a field where there is a higher incidence than typical of Deaf people #autistic? you’re more likely to be Deaf!#not to mention the fact that sign language can sometimes be a useful alternative to speech for nonspeaking/nonverbal people #depending on the person obvi; some nonspeaking/nonverbal autistics cannot use sign language and that’s okay #but surely at some point I will encounter either a Deaf client or a nonspeaking/nonverbal client who uses ASL #and when that time comes I should have some idea of how to communicate with them #I also rly like the Deaf church by my parents’ house #their community is really welcoming and their services are really interesting #I think it’s rly cool how they take intentions directly from the congregation #they’ll raise their hands and then sign what their intention is from their pew to the ambo #which is rly neat #it is funny bc every time I go the Deaf ppl I talk to will tell each other ‘go slow she’s hearing’#which is ENTIRELY fair bc. I am hearing. and I do need them to go slower.#but it also makes me laugh bc truly everyone knows within a few minutes.#oh hey the new person? they’re hearing. yeah they’re learning ASL at college. sign slowly for her.#which again makes sense bc a big Deaf culture thing is keeping ppl informed. it’s not gossip it’s getting everyone on the same page.#Deaf ppl do NOT beat around the bush that is like the height of rudeness to them. u say what u mean goshdangit. do not waste their time.#which I appreciate the heck out of bc i don’t have to try and phrase things delicately or w/e #it was also funny bc my mom came w me while I was home for Christmas and they asked her if I was her kid #and she said yes. and the lady running the kid’s craft corner thing was like ‘great you’re doing a craft now’#and I’m sitting there. visibly over 18 years old. amongst several seven year olds. trying desperately to figure out how to say hot glue gun #I made a v pretty pinecone tree it was a lot of fun ^-^

Bad pain day.

We get access to our rental house on Friday and it’s going to take us about a week to move in with Hubbins doing everything.

I want to be excited but all I can think about is how much pain & exhaustion I’m dealing with just being cuddled up in my bed. I love organizing and putting everything away but I’ve had pain induced insomnia for months (hence the Methotrexate trial coming up) and the most I can manage is getting the utilities scheduled.

Maybe I’ll feel better after we move in and have a yard to play in. Idk. I’m just in so much pain.

At least Mandana is able to help get things moving 🥲

Personally I think that end game Belos will be dead dead

but wanted to have a bit of the spin of the whole turn to puppets thing by turning him into a porcelain ball jointed doll. Not sure if it comes off obvious or not though.

#owl house #the owl house spoilers #toh luz noceda #toh emperor belos #toh collector #i dont know which color i like more on belos #because the softer color one looks more like the porcelain green i’ve seen #But the regular colors also look interesting #Evil Emperor not allowed to die and is forced to do community service by being a powerful child's play thing.#Or nanny #or both technically lol

Astro observations

Welcome, beautiful souls! I'm a beginner astrologer, who is mainly interested in tropical/Western astrology system. I'm also a Tarot and an oracle reader. I sometimes do readings for free, usually when I have time and energy to. You can contact me in dms, if you're interested to have a reading!

This is my first post here on Tumblr. I'm here to guide you on your spiritual path & to help you with figuring out the mysteries of your soul. I welcome you to join me to explore the realms of spirituality. My page is a safe place and free from negativity! 🤍

Feel free to comment if these resonated with you and you enjoy this kind of content!

I must reclaim, these are only observations that I've made. If something in this post doesn't resonate with you, it's worth to regard that aspects between planets, and house system can change the energies of the planets. An explanation is always found in the birth chart.

✧ Rising sign and MC both together have heavy effects on one's aura. Based on them, others form the first impression. They're both about public self and how do we seem and are perceived in the world. While MC is more about the status, ambitions and future career, Rising sign is about one's outlook in social circles. Rising sign determines the whole house system, which make Ascendant one of the most important part of birth chart. The first house is all about oneself, personality and appereance, and in this case your aura.

It's possible to make conclusions by each signs ruling planets and how they affect the sign. For example Libra rising, Venusian archetype may have soft colours in their aura, such as pastels. That's because Venus is an ethereal planet. But when a malefic planet like Pluto, Mars or Saturn is placed in the first house or makes conjuction to MC, it often darkens one's aura. Libra rising having Pluto conjuct the first house may have a dark Venusian appearance. Their aura could have darker spots in it or the aura's shade could be darker than usually Libra rising would have.

MC in conjuction with a planet/an asteroid could modify one's aura. MC in Scorpio would typically be perceived as mysterious and resentful in public life, but the Sun close to MC may brighten the aura. This could be an example of a sunny aura, with bright and warm colours in it. 💫

Take into consideration that degrees can reshape the aura too. Pisces Ascendant is known from dreaminess and sensitivity, but with Aries' degrees (1, 13, 25°) the aura may be more restless and even aggressive. Colours would be more gaudy than usually Neptunian ruled Pisces would have.

✧ I think Venus in Capricorn and Venus in Aquarius make a great pair together. Both of them are ruled by Saturn and in this case Saturn affects their Venuses. They both can be a bit detached, when it comes to Venus. Both Venuses are very mature and have quite similar love languages, although they are looking different things from love and act differently in love. Mutual understanding of other's feelings is usually guantareed.

But in the worst case, they both could be too independent and detached from their emotional side, which will later affect badly on their connection. Both of them should be aware of Saturn's gift and loss, so the connection between them would last. ♀️

✧ MC shows the legacy we're meant to leave before we pass. The eighth house rules other's money, taxes and debts. It's house of legacy too, which is (usually) given to us.

For example if you have the Moon in your eighth house, it could indicate that the legacy you'll be given, it's from your mother figure. Venus in eighth house could indicate legacy from your partner. If these planets are close to MC, then it could indicate legacy to your mother or partner. 🌜

If you don't have planets in your eighth house, it doesn't immediately mean that you won't be given any legacy. It's the most possible indicator of legacy in astrology. The sign that rules your eighth house could be an indication of the person you'll be given from as well. Earth signs, especially Taurus or Capricorn may represent legacy from an authoritarive figure. (And the sign where MC is in, it could be the person who you'll give your legacy to).

Why are there Marines helping to guard the White House? Isn't that the job of the secret service?

Yes, the Secret Service is responsible for the personal protection of the President and his family, and they take the lead in doing so in the White House just as they do outside of the White House.

But the White House is also a vitally important military facility, so the military has a significant presence there as well. The President is Commander-in-Chief of all American armed forces and the Situation Room is obviously staffed by the military, as are the White House's emergency bunker. And, of course, the President always has a military aide nearby with the "football" briefcase required in case of nuclear war. The U.S. Army is responsible for handling the White House Transportation Agency and the travel logistics for the President and his Administration. The U.S. Navy runs food services at the White House Mess (I believe that military aides also do any necessary grocery shopping for the President and First Family -- the President is personally responsible for actually paying for his family's regular groceries). All of the service branches of the military help run the White House Communications Agency, both in the White House itself and whenever/wherever the President is traveling. The President's personal physician and most of the White House Medical Unit are usually active-duty members of the military.

So, yeah, the Secret Service doesn't stop protecting the President just because he's at the White House, but the part played by the military in day-to-day logistics at the Executive Mansion is significant because the White House is basically a military base in addition to being the President's residence and place of work.
