snap
It is pretty bad when even your server wants to install Snaps when using Ubuntu.
That is both pathetic and sad.
Here marks my end of support for Ubuntu, because I am not going to be dealing with what is becoming the Microsoft of Linux.

169,812 people in #Maine will not receive #SNAP benefits for November.
Let me say that again.
169,812 people won't be able to afford to buy food in November in Maine.
Maine has a population < 1.5M
Not just Maine, but 42 million people across *all* states will lose SNAP benefits during the #shutdown while they all watch the president building a personal ballroom.
[Edit: lowball estimate adjusted to the exact number of people who won't receive Maine SNAP benefits. Clarified that 42 million people will lose SNAP benefits in all states.]
Out today: Feeding #Texas estimates that its 20 member banks have lost a total of $57.6 million in federal funding cuts, and that’s only in immediate canceled funding. But this could actually be on the low end of the potential impact range. https://www.texasobserver.org/trump-cuts-texas-food-banks/
Monster Pho is offering a free meal for kids and 25% off adult meals, for those with SNAP.
Folks who can help work food banks and pantry items or direct giving, please do so.
"As food assistance runs out and a billionaire offers money for troops, Trump dances in Malaysia. ...
While Trump could be seen dancing like a fool on a red carpet in Kuala Lumpur over the weekend, actual patriots at food banks and other grassroots organizations were bracing to serve large populations in need."

"In the dead of night, Donald Trump slipped out of the White House and boarded Air Force One for a trip to Asia. Twenty-four days into a government shutdown of his own making, Trump became the first president in American history to leave the country during an active shutdown. Millions of federal workers remain furloughed or unpaid."

"Unless the government shutdown ends this week, which seems basically impossible, federal support for SNAP will be cut off this Saturday.
Here are four things you should know about the imminent hunger games."

>2 dozen states sued the #Trump admin Tuesday over its recent refusal to fund #FoodStamps during the government #shutdown, seeking to spare roughly 42 million people from #hunger & financial hardship starting in a matter of days.
The states, including officials in Arizona, California & Massachusetts, asked a federal judge to force Washington to tap emergency reserve money so that families do not see an interruption to their benefits under #SNAP starting Nov 1.

“When people can’t get their #SNAP, they’re going to go to the #food banks. There isn’t enough food in the food pantries to handle this need. I mean, they’re all saying we’re going to run out of food. There’s no way we can replace everybody’s SNAP benefits.” https://www.texasobserver.org/snap-benefits-shutdown-will-leave-hungry-students/
Two federal judges ruled nearly simultaneously on Friday that the #Trump admin must continue to fund #SNAP, the nation’s biggest #food #aid program, using contingency funds during the government #shutdown.
The rulings came a day before the #USDA planned to freeze payments to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program because it said it could no longer keep funding it due to the shutdown.

"Portland coffee shop raises over $86,000 to feed people losing SNAP benefits"
"Heretic Coffee, 5120 S.E. 28th Ave., is a volunteer-run, nonprofit coffee shop that trains people to become baristas and coffee roasters.
The coffee shop has been soliciting donations for less than a week to pay for breakfast for people losing Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP benefits …"

Had to renew my library card today. The librarian told me that people are coming in daily to ask if there is anywhere they can get some food, including an unusual number of young people in their early 20s.
We discussed putting nonperishables in the free little library over near the trailer park. (Thank you to the people who suggested that.) And, of course, we need to support food banks with whatever funds we can. No donation is too small.
The fact is, in the U.S. we are on our own. We are going to have to help each other. We are plunging headfirst into a clear and present crisis.
"On Friday, Fox News published an article with the headline 'SNAP Beneficiaries Threaten to Ransack Stores Over Government Shutdown.' The piece, written by Alba Cuebas-Fantauzzi and filed under the site’s 'cultural trends' section, featured quotes from several Black women complaining about losing their food stamp benefits."

#Trump admin seeks to halt #SNAP #food #aid payments after a #CourtOrder
Trump’s admin asked a federal appeals court Friday to block a judge’s order that it distribute November’s full monthly SNAP benefits amid a #US govt #shutdown, even as at least some states said they were moving quickly to get the money to people.

"In a scathing ruling handed down just minutes ago, Judge John McConnell ordered the Trump administration to immediately deliver full November SNAP benefits to every state, blasting officials for their brazen refusal to obey his earlier mandate."

Trump told #states on Saturday to “immediately undo” any actions to provide full #FoodStamp benefits to #LowIncome families, threatening financial penalties if they do not comply. The late-night guidance from the #USDA adds to the uncertainty surrounding the nation’s largest anti-#hunger program during the govt #shutdown. Officials in several states said they remained unsure on Sunday how the directive would affect the roughly one in eight Americans who rely on #SNAP.
#Trump admin renews #SCOTUS appeal to keep full #SNAP payments frozen
The request is the latest in a flurry of legal activity over how a program that helps buy groceries for 42 million Americans should proceed during the historic US govt #shutdown. Lower courts have ruled that the govt must keep FULL payments flowing, & SCOTUS asked the admin to respond after an appeals court ruled against it again late Sunday.

Via @indivisibleteam:
#Republicans have a new talking point for gutting #Medicaid & #SNAP to give #billionaires even more #TaxCuts:
“We are all going to die.”
If your senator is a #GOP ghoul like #JoniErnst, they need to hear from the constituents they’re betraying with #Trump’s #TaxScam

"Well, we all are going to die."
So said Iowa Senator Joni Ernst when challenged on her support for deep cuts in Medicaid and SNAP programs with the proposed Republican budget.
Then after the meeting in which she said this, she posted a video on social media inviting people to accept her lord and savior Jesus Christ.
In 2022, Ms. Ernst stated,
"I'm proudly and adamantly pro-life."
