“This is a poor people-led solution to our own problems."
Unhoused individuals are often subject to “about us, without us” plans. Homefulness, a program for and by unhoused people, provides rent-free homes to those in need.

Rather than “people need to buy houses to feel secure”, how about “how do we allow people to feel secure without needing to buy houses?” #auspol. 🙃🤞🦋

Bueno, pues he descubierto que los compiyoguis han inventado una palabra, 'homefulness', que significa cosas como «ir por la casa en modo piloto automático [sic]» y mierdas similares.
Pero lo que más me gusta es que lo ilustran con gente sentada en el suelo escuchando música HABIENDO SOFÁS.

Building more roads has not solved traffic congestion. Building more houses won’t solve the housing crisis. A cap on ownership will help. Not allowing homes to be used for investment will help.
