  Why can’t the people who have nothing pay for a hotel?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Man admits asylum seeker hotel petrol bomb attack⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The value of a hotel stay includes a lot more than the stripped back services these people have access to, it’s not like they are on holiday, and they’re in rooms not meant to accommodate families or extended stays which can make it an unpleasant experience, not whatever you’re imagining.
  Hostels have even less infrastructure to deal with people in them or deal with government bureaucracy that goes with any of these programs.
  Camps like ex army bases have been suggested and I think even trialled but have their own issues, soldiers will put up with the bare minimum and the bases are no longer fit to provide that.

  Right here, this is the danger.
  Only half joking, people will use dodgier sites that ignore these rules and show them worse than if the bans hadn’t been put in at all.

  Or never specify. “That spacestation has massive computing power” “How big?” “Massive.”

  Had a quick look on Rotten tomatoes and he was in several flashy popular films and TV series which spanned a lot of genres so “everyone” probably saw him in something. Likely other actors were in more things and more viewed things but in more specific roles or types of film so you don’t get that feeling of saturation.

  Present it in verse, then the singer signer can sing to sign.
