TIME’s new cover makes me so mad I could write essays about it, but instead I’m going to keep job hunting since in today’s world a university degree means nothing and therefore like much of my generation, I’m stuck choosing between minimum wage jobs and internships that I can’t afford to accept in an attempt to pay off my tens of thousands of dollars worth of student debt.

I’d be interested in reading this article to see exactly what makes us entitled and lazy. Are we lazy because more of us are completing high school and going to college than ever before? Are we entitled because our standard of living is declining? Do we live with our parents because we’re too slothful to leave or is because our education costs are getting steeper and steeper while we’re getting less and less aid?

Tell us, Time Magazine, about how we’re narcissistic little slugs when we’re faced with an economic crisis that resulted in a lowering of our standard of living, an increase in tuition costs and how when we get out of our very expensive schools, more and more of us are going to end up working minimum wage jobs.

Homelessness is not normal

Sat, 20 Apr 2013 19:46:12 -0700

Homelessness is not normal:

counti8:

[Judy Graves, the City of Vancouver’s homelessness advocate] also persuaded authorities to see that homelessness was neither unsolvable, nor an age-old problem that has always been with us. She remembers the 1970s and ’80s in Vancouver, when higher vacancy rates and affordable rooming houses kept many people off the streets.

In the 1990s, however, homelessness became visible, as two trends struck the city at one time. In 1993, the federal government completed its long withdrawal from funding social housing across Canada. Meanwhile, an influx of cocaine fueled an active open drug market in Vancouver’s inner city. By 1997, Vancouver Coastal Health declared a public health emergency in the Downtown Eastside for its HIV-AIDS epidemic and high drug overdose rates.

Today, “we’ve got a whole generation who don’t remember that homelessness is not normal,” Graves says. “Anybody who was born in the late ’80s would have no conscious memory of there simply not being a homelessness crisis.”

— from Jackie Wong, One Last Walk with Judy Graves, 12 April 2013

These are some of the most important points about homelessness in Vancouver, and are also unfortunately the ones glossed over the most.

For the anime fans among us — this page from Kotaku is a compilation of real Totoro catbuses from Japan.

(As awesome as cat-mass-transportation is, however, I can’t stop staring at the cat sidecar on that page. It is really stylin’.)

I’m going to Japan. This is a goal.
