Actually a lot of the unaffordable housing is due to several major housing markets like New York City and San Francisco having a serious housing shortage, and a popped asset bubble won’t increase the stock of available housing.
the paradox here is a “bad” economy might actually be better for young people than a “good” economy. popping the asset bubble means young people can afford a place to live. most of our problems are because policymakers prioritize boomer retirement portfolios above everything else

Sorry Facebook, but using our flag and our disabled veterans as shields for your pervert glasses is despicable. Don’t you fucking dare pretend that this was ever about blind veterans.

DSA white dudes will say that "Black people are only 13% of the population." But do they understand what that 13% nationwide does to get Democrats to win in places like Mississippi? They do not. The process of ballot curing was one major reason why Cindy Hyde-Smith got bounced.
If you use LibreOffice, you won’t have to deal with this shit.
We’re opening all available pathways to restore service, as our actions taken thus far have not provided the anticipated relief. We found a core process on affected servers is becoming overwhelmed, causing capacity loss. To validate a potential recovery, we're isolating a portion of infrastructure, restarting affected components, and reintroducing traffic to confirm the services remain stable before applying the change more broadly. More info under EX1550543 and MO1550821 in the Microsoft 365 admin center, as well as status.cloud.microsoft if the admin center is not available to you.
Arabic-speaking Christians know God as Allah because “allah” is the generic word for “god” in Arabic. By the way, God is referred to in Hebrew in parts of the Torah as Elohim (a plural of respect), the singular form of which is Eloah, which is a cognate of Allah in Arabic.
I don't care if Allah means "god" in Arabic.
Allah of the Koran is NOT the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Jesus is not only Messiah, prophet, priest, and King, BUT GOD!
Beat that!😇

And in case you weren’t aware, Muslims also regard Jesus - a descendant of Abraham - as the Messiah but believe him to be a prophet who talked to God, rather than being God himself. According to Islamic tradition, Muhammad met Jesus and Moses when he visited the heavens.

Well their first mistake was running Windows
Microsoft doesn’t use this kind of wording unless it’s really really bad. Like, SHTF kinda bad.
“Aggressively pursuing all pathways…we’ve paused all new deployments.”
That’s a panic button I’ve never seen them hit before.
“The elevated load isn’t driven by an increase in traffic, but by a number of servers being UNEXPECTEDLY UNAVAILABLE.”
IE: Server farms. Racks and racks of servers. NOT RESPONDING. At all. Failing health checks.
Whew doggie!

I am Mississippi-raised, and tonight, I am overjoyed to congratulate Senator-elect @scott_colom! From the first time we broke bread together in August 2024, I understood his claim on history. He knows that justice and security, that affordability and prosperity are possible for Mississippi. And the people agreed.
This is what happens when the overlooked organize, the discounted turn out, and the silent refuse to be ignored. Now let's get to work.
I don’t understand how anything (other than perhaps a government treasury) is actually worth $1 trillion. Sure stock can be worth that, but try cashing out. Who even has $1 trillion laying around to buy that much stock?

So let me get this straight. Speaker Johnson is forced to bring a vote to impeach Drunky McTinydick to the floor, so he rushes the vote before 20 members of Congress have time to arrive, insuring that the vote fails and y’all just blame Democrats, who voted to impeach, and not Republicans, who voted to keep him?
You’re all too fucking stupid to live.

Many news articles are rightfully noting that Scott Colom becomes the first Black senator elected in Mississippi “since Reconstruction.”
I think it’s worth more fully articulating why that is and the history tucked into that two-word phrase.
Mississippi has always been one of the Blackest (by population %) states in the Union, and after the Civil War, in 1870, it elected as senator America’s first Black member of Congress — AME minister Hiram R. Revels. Four years later, he was replaced by Blanche Bruce, a former slave, who became the country’s second Black senator.
Then, in 1890, state lawmakers in Mississippi called a state Constitutional convention in order to functionally strip Black residents access to the ballot box — introducing a $2 annual poll tax as well as literacy tests.
As a result, Black voter participation plummeted. These were innovations, and became the inspiration for similar “Jim Crow” laws across the South during the period that followed Reconstruction.
For the next 136 years, Black voter registration and turnout would be a major focus of civil rights efforts in Mississippi — including the work of Medgar Evers and Fannie Lou Hamer — often in response to acts of racial violence including the 1955 lynching of Emmett Till.
Even so, no Black official had managed to be elected to a statewide office in Mississippi since the 1890 convention until yesterday, when Scott Colom was declared the winner of the 2026 Senate race.
