This is why we need a multiple homes speculation tax.
First-time homebuyers will continue to be priced out of the housing market until we drive speculators out of the market. Homes should be for people, not speculators.

Major breaking news. AG Ken Paxton of Texas has demanded medical records of all Texas trans youth getting care in Seattle, threatening arrest.
This is a gross violation of the dormant commerce clause and will be used to stop hospitals from offering care to those fleeing Texas.

A new House resolution, which may be voted on as early as tonight, "clearly and firmly states that anti-Zionism is antisemitism." This comes after a previous resolution hinted at that claim, but did not fully state it. So now Congress wants to leave no question.
But there's an additional trap: Anybody who votes against this resolution will be said to have voted against condemning antisemitism.
Among other things, by codifying ethno-nationalism as the only acceptable expression of Judaism in America, this is the most antisemitic resolution to be considered in generations:
PLEASE BOOST! Dr. Muhammad Abu Salima is the reason the 20+ babies Israel forced out of their incubators didn’t starve & rot in their beds like other babies did.His bravery is the reason countless infants were able to be evacuated. He risked his life to save the most vulnerable!
You guys omg, they are actively erasing palestinian bloodlines from dna testing. If you are Palestinian and you get a dna test they are actively eraising that part of you to make it seem like Palestine never was. Do not trust 23&me for dna testing. Fuck 23 & Me
Ben Shapiro, while promoting Daily Wire’s new Lady Ballers film, shares he originally wanted the fictional movie to be a documentary

Why do I, as a Japanese person, enjoy creating Black characters?
To put it simply, I started creating Black characters because a Black fan once said to me, 'Thank you for creating Black characters beautifully.
It's a simple reason, but those words really made me happy.
A foreign fan told me, "Japanese anime art and entertainment are racially discriminatory".
As a Japanese illustrator, I had never heard such an opinion from Japanese people. This perspective was new to me.
If Japanese anime art and entertainment are perceived as racially discriminatory from an international perspective, then we as Japanese must face this issue.
Unfortunately, I have heard some Japanese people say, "If foreigners don't like it, they shouldn't watch Japanese entertainment. It's made for Japanese people". This is a foolish thought.
No matter how much they claim that Japanese entertainment is "just for Japan," the Internet has erased borders.
Japanese art and entertainment are no longer just for Japanese consumers.
Can we go against the tide of this era?
No, it's impossible.
Some understanding Japanese have said to me, appreciating my efforts to create ethnic diversity and racial differences, "If you continue to draw Black characters, maybe one day Japanese people will deepen their understanding of diverse racial representation and your work will be properly recognized.
I would be happy if one day I could draw beautiful Black characters in my work for Japanese clients and for foreign fans.
