I love television. I just listen to the album the other day.

Tom Verlaine was awesome. Then he tries to join Jane's addiction and look what happens. Make it a good point.

Pick a job.

Make it down. Oh, This is hell.

one of my very favorite albums of all time so thank you Richard

live from the United States where capitalism is the virus this is how the

unhoused are victims of state-sponsored structural violence.

The state puts resources into getting the unhoused into a place, but homelessness continues to increase.

Even when the unhoused jump through all the hoops, the state insists that they do.

Far too often, the unhoused cannot get off the streets.

Government workers do as they are told by the state

to help address the needs of the unhoused.

As intermediaries, they impose a morality

to which the unhoused must conform. The unhoused lives, even the most intimate

aspects, are constantly watched by the state, repeatedly violating their privacy.

Still, despite their acquiescence, the unhoused face, violence, insecurity, condescension, and at times it could come directly from the state that is supposed to be supposedly trying to get them in a house.

It's as if the state and the public does not care about this vulnerable and precarious population

that the lives of the unhoused simply don't matter.

If they die due to negligence from the state, despite the unhoused constantly seeking and

requesting help, nobody has ever held accountable or responsible for lives lost to poverty.

It's as if the entire process of getting the unhoused into a house is a performance,

an act that suggests something is being done when little to nothing does get done.
