A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

Death Disclosure Laws and Property Disclosures in North Carolina. In North Carolina, there is no legal obligation for homeowners or real estate agents to disclose if a death has occurred in a home, whether by natural causes, murder, or suicide. However, if a potential buyer directly inquires about any deaths on the property, the seller is required to provide that information.

Aurora, CO

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.

Cats of Kansas City

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.
