Hungry for Wood

@hungryforwood2

I learned in 7th grade that the name of my beloved Western Washington town means "hungry for wood." I love my community and the spirit of its people. I'm a total nostalgia junkie, news hound, geek, musician, mom, wife, and counselor and I plan to share things I find interesting and informative.

Almost like making the bare necessities of life more and more expensive adds unnecessary stress that negatively impacts people's health and well-being. But who could have seen that coming?

You know who saw it coming? The researchers who worked hard to investigate and record it like this. Thank them, support them, and defend them at all costs for their willingness to objectively document societal problems our government would rather deny; the current establishment does not want these things to be scientifically documented and already wants to cut funding to academia for that very reason. Unfortunately, one study can never be enough; as long as this continues to affect people, it will continue to warrant studies like this, preferably more thorough and from more sources so we can have objectively verified information on its frequencies and patterns, so we can see how it varies by demographic or geography or even seasonally, so we have a vital resource for planning the most effective ways to counter the problem, so we have data to back up legal cases, so we can archive and preserve precious data on something some people would cover up if they could, but at the very least so there's RECORD. Why wouldn't you want someone to investigate this in detail and write down what they saw in a form that can be preserved and archived????

“cory booker is not actually accomplishing anything” I need you to stop being a pessimistic hag every second of ur life. u can be disillusioned. u can wish there was more done already. but this is SOMETHING!! he has broken the longest senate speech record and has been standing up for americans (and against a fascist racist oligarchy) for over 25 hours straight. hundreds of millions have and are watching him. HE is the news cycle. he is reading democratic and republican testimonies alike. people are hearing him, whether they chose to or are forced to!!!!!!! will it solve all our problems? no. but it is a Spark that will hopefully catch flame

This is how any corporation functions. First, increasing profits is done by attracting more customers. Then, once they have all the customers they're going to get, increasing profits is done by increasing prices or cutting costs.
