“The idiocy of delivering a 2 pound pizza with a 2 pound car.” — Wes Marshall at University of Colorado Denver

[Shannon Hoffman for Denver City Council D10 @ShannonLovesD10]

Knocking on doors today I talked to people in AA who are sober and have housing vouchers and still can’t find an affordable place to live. I talked to tenants who have a landlord refusing to renew their lease while flipping empty units and raising rents. This is our why. 💛

24 days ago I learned my daughter was dying in utero, and if untreated I risked preeclampsia and stroke. Termination is illegal in NC after 21 weeks, which I was, even when she had no hope of surviving and I was in danger. Because I had the means to leave, I’m ok and recovering.

“Some of us have a raggedy faith. You cry for a long time, and then after that are defeated and flattened for a long time. Then somehow life starts up again.” ~@ANNELAMOTT

[Anne Lamott Quotes @AnneLamottQuote]

“Saying my problems out loud is the main way I am ever able to let go. People say in chipper voices, ‘Let go and let God,’ and I think, ‘Oh, fuck you.’” ~@ANNELAMOTT

[Anne Lamott Quotes @AnneLamottQuote]

"The world can feel like an alcoholic father sitting in the living room in his vile underwear, tranced out or abusive; & the world can feel like ur favorite auntie who thinks you are just great, still likes to hike, always brings trail mix, & knows her wildflowers." ~@ANNELAMOTT

[Anne Lamott Quotes @AnneLamottQuote]

“Paradox doesn’t always work for me (okay, never), even though I believe both that we are doomed and that life is a magical, mystical gift. I love it here, love my life, though sometimes it has been devastating and sometimes, politically, a nightmare.” ~@ANNELAMOTT

My affordable housing bill would help start to close the wealth gap between Black & white families caused by decades of housing discrimination by helping first-time homebuyers in formerly redlined or officially segregated areas.

I always thought I’d be a better person by now. But still, after 27 years of sobriety, 10 years of ordination and soooo much yoga, my first reaction to almost everything is, “Fuck You”. I don’t often stay there. But I almost always start there. Oh well. Off to another yoga class

Help fight against corruption, and for affordable housing in Uptown: https://t.co/FnYklQ7GA8.

811 W Montrose is a 300+ unit luxury development in Uptown that received $15.8 million in Tax Increment Financing, and that Ald. Cappleman approved the Zoning for.

It’s the first of the month and rent control is past due! We are here outside the office of predatory developer Pangea, a corporation that owns 16,000 rental units and opposes statewide efforts to #LiftTheBan and pass #RentControlNow
