Last I heard he was living with his girlfriend, who he knocked up. Not all who panhandle are homeless. Not all homeless panhandle. He is absolutely at risk of being homeless though, because of his choices, and that's the point I'm making here. I support the opposite of this law that bans camping on government property, and I wish we could build areas that are safe and have resources for camping for the homeless. Not as a solution to homelessness, but as a small part of a multi-layered approach that addresses the issue holistically, from treating drug abuse and mental illness, to the housing shortage, and to the lack of available resources for those who don't have the executive function that many of us enjoy.

I can oppose this law, and still expect and encourage people to make the best decisions they're capable of.

Matthew 25:34-36 Then the king will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.’

Big internet joke regarding the flopped sony movie Morbius.

They combined his name with the hulk's catch phrase 'its clobberin' time' to make 'its morbin time' and joked as if that was Morbius' catch phrase.

It also usually involves Morbius morbing all over something.

I saw one of my recently former students with a sign on 44 and Kansas, and I asked some of my current students about it. They said they used to work with him at Taco Bell, but they saw him walking past the store when he was scheduled to work and so they fired him. He was completely capable of working, he just didn't want to.
