@1:

You DO understand that being locked in a cell 24/7 generally means being locked in a cell 24/7 with ANOTHER PRISONER, or depending on how overcrowded the facility is, MORE THAN ONE OTHER PRISONER, right?

But regardless of the number of cell-mates, you're probably sweet and juicy, so no doubt you'd be somebody's punk right quick...

@2, what is your understanding of the word solitary? Google it to gain some clarity.

"Thank you for your interest in SYCT. We have concluded this project in your community. Please contact your local health department for any remaining kits that may be available for pickup locally." Didn't this just go live like yesterday? What the hell?

my Hero Chris Hedges
teaches Civics to Prisoners:
Zinn's 'a People's History of the
USOFA' and they're like, "We've been Lied to."

a wee blurb from Town Hall Seattle:
'As the nationā€™s poorest city per capita, Camden, N.J., is a poster child of postindustrial decayā€”and a warning to us all, says Chris Hedges. The Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, co-author of the graphic nonfiction book Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt, traveled to the most depressed areas of the United States to show what happens when a society loses a sense of the sacred and nothing has an intrinsic value beyond monetary values.

Amid sky-high unemployment and threatened social services, Hedges warns of a bleak near-future where cities such as Camdenā€”and even statesā€”fall into bankruptcy, neofeudalism reigns, and the nationā€™s working and middle classes are decimated."

Homelessness ain't
The Problem

it's a
Symptom.

There can be no happiness in a world where the undesirables are thrown away.

"My name is Jojo Ivan" in support of this Dr Balbosa fellow is some fun-ass spell-caster spam copy. Think if the comment was posted under the same user name, I may have even thrown caution to the wind and reached out to see what they had to offer. Bummer.

Whoops, pressed the wrong button! I work in Jail Health Services and can confirm that it is an absolute nightmare in there with some inmates not getting out of their cells for DAYS. I see above that people think this is preferable to being with others but it is very isolating and detrimental to most inmateā€™s mental health, and it also means they donā€™t get showers or phone calls. The jail was dirty before but now, without trustees (inmate workers) to clean, things are even grosser. Many officers and staff members are out due to COVID. Many staff do not mask regularly and inmates do not mask consistently (it would be hard to mask 24/7 in a group tank). We have no regular testing of staff. I donā€™t know how itā€™s ever going to end in there. I hope the courts can get things moving.
