There are now at least 320,000 homeless people in the UK. Up 13,000 since last year. (Shelter)
Where does racism come from? Evolution, say I. We all do it, we need to recognize that and compassionately direct our actions to the good. Racism is complicated! My buddy Earl recommended this book -

1983. A false alarm nearly caused mutual annihilation. 1 man kept his head. I can't be silent while a president who could cause the deaths of millions, including my wife, my children and my grandchildren, is so intemperate. Would he be as cool as Petrov?

...This is a level of criminality beyond the pale. This is such a grave abuse of power and authority, it’s like nothing else we’ve seen in our history. This makes the Nixon Watergate burglary look like keystone cop stuff
Craziest thing I've ever photographed. An active limestone mine collapsed below a park in Alton, IL. A perfectly round hole opened up and swallowed one of the field lights. The hole is estimated to be 100ft wide and 30ft deep. The entire park is currently closed.
