#homeless

16 posts16 participants1 post today

Stress really does mess with your physical #health as well.

Obviously it's horrible for your #mentalhealth but I look at videos I posted when I first started making them a year ago, and I look like 10 years older than my more recent ones.

Being #homeless nearly killed me and I was literally COUGHING UP BLOOD, and almost anorexic by the end as I had just stopped eating.

Even my facial hair has changed, as it was going grey and now it's not.

I reversed in age once I had stability.

Who of you lives in the northern US or Canada and has land on which we can park the Vulpibus for a little while until we get our shit together?

It's a big ask I know, but this is a huge need with massive consequences for us and those we will help. We can't stay on truckstops and campsites much longer.

This noise pollution needs to be illegal.

There’s a new affordable housing apartment building in Concord directly across the street from Sam’s Club.

I briefly thought of applying for a place there until I realized that if I get put in the front of the building I’m going to have to listen to the ads that play on the gas pumps and I will go insane. (Idk if Sam’s plays ads on their gas pumps but they’re everywhere I go except my mechanic’s so I just assume everyone does this.)

There’s also a really rundown building on Manchester Street that used to be a dance club that they turned into apartments. I don’t know what they cost now but back in 2018 they actually had $450 a month studio apartments.

My Social Security income was not 3 1/2 times $450 so I wouldn’t have qualified, but they are directly behind Dunkin’ Donuts and the thought of having to hear the drive-through speaker 24 hours a day made me decide that being homeless would be better than that.

The #HomeDepot next to my house has an anti #homeless alarm that is driving me crazy. : r/legaladvice reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comme

The strategy is based on the importance of stable housing as a foundation for addressing other issues, such as mental health & substance abuse. Participants have been successfully reintegrated into society with analyses showing that approximately 80% of program participants found stable housing & improved their general well-being. The successful model has garnered international attention.

I really don't like the drinking, and food culture in the #usa now that I am not a waiter anymore.

I have only been drunk like four times in my life as I don't have friends/family from #alcohol.

People look at me like they've seen a ghost when the learn that of someone in their 30s, then tell me to drink more when we go out.

I'm also relatively thin now, hate ordering food then getting 3 meals on a plate, and feel it's wasteful after being #homeless for four years.

What it's like being #homeless in a red state -

I was sleeping in a tent in Idaho - that I had to move every 2 days as #police had nothing to do with a low crime rate, and liked harassing homeless - which I was doing as the only shelter in town kicked me out for having #tourettes.

I was excited a new shelter was gonna be opened.

It got cancelled as it was next to a rich neighborhood filled with Mormons who sued them into oblivion, and I moved to #portland.

Continued thread

I am frequently in contact with religious groups with my work with #Homeless and #unhoused persons and fighting #hunger
and my #mentalhealth issues of #Depression and #anxiety put me into close contact with so many marginalized people.

I'm a cishet male. I'm mixed white and Asian. I fight for #IndigenousRights #BIPOC #LGBTQ #Immigrants #Minorities and that puts me in direct odds against #racism #Bigotry #xenophobia #homophobia #Transphobia #Fascists #Nazis and in turn, #Religion
