The first warning arrived on a Tuesday morning, six weeks after consultants advised moving from dependency on six hundred small excel scripts - and nobody at Zenith Ledger Advisory paid much attention. It appeared in the system dashboard between routine audit notifications and a maintenance reminder

One way of thinking about HR1 is that in exchange for a tax cut that most benefits the wealthy, the much larger number of people who rely safety net benefits *and* our state governments are going to lose resources because of administrative burdens
NEW: The Trump admin is counting on Medicaid work requirements to save the government billions of dollars. But well before the rules formally go into effect Jan. 1, they’re costing already-strapped states millions or tens of millions to implement. www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

Today is Homeless Persons' Memorial Day. As unhoused people are brutalized, criminalized, and vilified nationwide—and with so much invested in obscuring the root causes of homelessness—it's important to be clear: people are homeless because they have been deprived of housing they can afford.

Most Americans agree that the Trump administration should not cut long-term housing assistance for homeless people. Recent polling reveals deep concern about what will happen as a result of HUD's willful funding delays. See more from National Alliance to End Homelessness - https://tr.ee/fXDV17

This is far worse than anyone expected. Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps. All as mass internment camps are being built.

Bluesky is “screen reader accessible” the way a staircase with curb cuts on each step is a “wheelchair ramp.” No keyboard nav. No useful landmarks. No focus memory. I lose my place every time I interact with a post. Compliance ≠ usability. Day 23 asking @support.bsky.team to fix this #A11yFail
