Hi guys, today I found out I basically got an eviction notice for May 31st. This is, while i'm still searching for a job, so I'm not doing so good atm.

Does any one of you know of any jobs and/or affordable housing (looking around the 600-900 euro rent ballpark, and around a 2600 pre-tax euro salary, a month.)? Please let me know. Travel is difficult, I basically only got a bicycle, so in or around the town Veenendaal or Ede is preferred, though if you also know housing next to a job, then that's fine as well.

I also got a Paypal if you want to support me directly, https://www.paypal.me/Spennorex

My DMs here should be open in case you got any questions, or send me a reply here.

Y'know how no Prime Minister wants to renovate or rebuild 24 Sussex Dr. because the optics would be bad? How about making the funding of a new PM residence an omnibus bill alongside >100x as much funding for the purchase/construction of public affordable housing?

Something surprising is happening in S.F. that’s actually … um, good. A 146-unit #affordablehousing project is going up … fast. It aims to be completed 19 months after breaking ground, which is three to six months faster than normal. What is speeding things up? A team approach and some process improvements. Also perhaps just having the goal of more #housing in less time. https://www.sfchronicle.com/realestate/article/mission-bernal-affordable-housing-20064388.php

“If policymakers want to make housing more affordable and available, more federal support is needed for housing assistance and development, not less. ... To better address the ongoing housing affordability crisis, the federal government could invest in these housing needs, rather than undermine them.”

"Turner supported a bill ensuring landlords could refuse apartments to applicants because they received federal housing assistance. He opposed a bill to expand affordable rental housing. He voted against funding public-private partnerships to support the homeless and against two bills that called merely to study homelessness among young people and veterans."
