You had to work?.. hugs my friend, thats terrible 🤗
You, my friend, have never had Appalachian apple pie shine. It was worth it.
Sounds delicious 🤤1 -

i LOVE this idea like its a dream of mine to do this
Yeah, but would get kinda lonely and would need to find a van commune or something, would miss housemates. Still have work and uni tho...It’s really hard here now with everything closed. Like, I have the library for internet/and computer, uni+gym for showers but not at the moment. It’s illegal to be homeless but I can just lie to the government and say I live at a friend’s house. But think of all that money I’m burning by renting and it would totally be worth it. Even just for like 12-18 months!
I’m here for it!
(Also it’s illegal to be homeless where you are?!?! This seems a cruel and a strange way to end homelessness).
most places in US its illegal to be homeless they just dont say it outright
like its illegal to “camp” in park or illegal to “loiter” or whatever
i was homeless for a bit like when 17/18 years old and they’d give us camping tickets if we slept somewhere like a park or bus station and THEN u got to figure out a way to pay the ticket or go to court or u end up with bench warrant for “failure to appear” which is a misdemeanor and THEN get a few of those in a place where they do “three strikes” u are facing felony charges and jail time
Oh wow, that is quite honestly one of the stupidest things I’ve heard. It makes zero sense to fine someone who obviously doesn’t have means to adequate housing and therefore likely no means to disposable income for petty fines. Le sigh. What a broken system. My city had a similar experience with ticketing fare evaders on transit - like they don’t have the cash for transit so you’re going to write them a ticket that’s like 200% the cost of the bus ticket? 🤦🏻♀️ This kind of stuff makes me so angry when there’s folks who have excessive vehicles they’re not driving or driving infrequently and some folks can’t pay $2.50 for a bus ride.
I’m sorry you experienced homelessness! Must have been quite the time. 💛2 -

i mean tbf a lot of the homeless population are addicts or mentally ill so being like “go ahead and do what u want bc u cant pay tickets” not real good option either
idk how to solve it tbh0 -

A happy ending for one woman sleeping in a Kroger's parking lot because she didn't have a home; they offered her a job.
I completely agree about the broken system. There, to me, is a big difference between loitering and actually trying to survive. I saw a short clip where this guy had invented insulated foam huts(not overly big but could comfortably sleep in it) for homeless people to sleep in, to keep them warm during the winter. It weighs about 20 lbs, straps together easily with velcro straps, and stays warm using the person's body heat.3 -
Been thinking about ways to make this Christmas special. I haven't seen all 3 of my kids since the holidays, except for video chats. And one of their SO's is coming too. Can't wait!!!4

We should try criminalizing drug use so that addicts get caught up in a hopeless cycle of being unable to help themselves but are too afraid to ask for the help they need for fear of punishment. Then if all goes as planned they will spiral which causes them to eventually lose their job, the one thing that might’ve enabled them to actually afford the ridiculously expensive and largely unattainable in-patient treatment that they can’t simply get from the healthcare system. This will get them out on the streets where jailtime will be an inevitability. THEN they’ll finally have what they need: a roof over their heads, enough to eat, social integration, maybe even an honest day’s work.
What could go wrong??
Or, y’know, maybe we could modify the existing healthcare system to make addiction treatment and recovery as attainable as well child checkups. Instead of putting our taxes toward the care and incarceration of de facto criminals, we could support them BEFORE they spiral to unchecked drug abuse and the extreme social isolation and life-threatening practices that go along with it5 -

There is so many crack addicts I see every day living on the streets on West Oakland on my way to work, every morning...
It's sad but the unfortunate truth is, most of them will end up right back on the streets...
Although this homeless issue wasn't as bad back when mental health services were more available...4 -

Yeah we need more robust mental health care too1 -
I need an extreme version of MFP, with an accountability structure that allowed for literal punches to the face if goals weren't met.
Not actually for fitness though (though I guess it works for that, too) but for other things.
Like a terrible SAW movie but for developing good habits3 -

Not actually for fitness though (though I guess it works for that, too) but for other things.
Like a terrible SAW movie but for developing good habits
This could actually work for fitness goals though
‘Lose 25 lbs or you’ll lose a leg’ i mean either way you’re losing some weight3 -

Yeah, but would get kinda lonely and would need to find a van commune or something, would miss housemates. Still have work and uni tho...It’s really hard here now with everything closed.

(Also it’s illegal to be homeless where you are?!?! This seems a cruel and a strange way to end homelessness).
most places in US its illegal to be homeless they just dont say it outright
like its illegal to “camp” in park or illegal to “loiter” or whatever
i was homeless for a bit like when 17/18 years old and they’d give us camping tickets if we slept somewhere like a park or bus station and THEN u got to figure out a way to pay the ticket or go to court or u end up with bench warrant for “failure to appear” which is a misdemeanor and THEN get a few of those in a place where they do “three strikes” u are facing felony charges and jail time
Oh wow, that is quite honestly one of the stupidest things I’ve heard. It makes zero sense to fine someone who obviously doesn’t have means to adequate housing and therefore likely no means to disposable income for petty fines. Le sigh. What a broken system. My city had a similar experience with ticketing fare evaders on transit - like they don’t have the cash for transit so you’re going to write them a ticket that’s like 200% the cost of the bus ticket? 🤦🏻♀️ This kind of stuff makes me so angry when there’s folks who have excessive vehicles they’re not driving or driving infrequently and some folks can’t pay $2.50 for a bus ride.
I’m sorry you experienced homelessness! Must have been quite the time. 💛
i mean tbf a lot of the homeless population are addicts or mentally ill so being like “go ahead and do what u want bc u cant pay tickets” not real good option either
idk how to solve it tbh
We should try criminalizing drug use so that addicts get caught up in a hopeless cycle of being unable to help themselves but are too afraid to ask for the help they need for fear of punishment. Then if all goes as planned they will spiral which causes them to eventually lose their job, the one thing that might’ve enabled them to actually afford the ridiculously expensive and largely unattainable in-patient treatment that they can’t simply get from the healthcare system. This will get them out on the streets where jailtime will be an inevitability. THEN they’ll finally have what they need: a roof over their heads, enough to eat, social integration, maybe even an honest day’s work.
What could go wrong??
Or, y’know, maybe we could modify the existing healthcare system to make addiction treatment and recovery as attainable as well child checkups. Instead of putting our taxes toward the care and incarceration of de facto criminals, we could support them BEFORE they spiral to unchecked drug abuse and the extreme social isolation and life-threatening practices that go along with it
There is so many crack addicts I see every day living on the streets on West Oakland on my way to work, every morning...
It's sad but the unfortunate truth is, most of them will end up right back on the streets...

addictions not easy problem to solve like an illness
i wanna say more but i’m not having great day today like not very talkative
It isnt easy at all, i know. But i have three siblings that are addicts and the only onewho has had any success getting sober is the one who could afford in-patient treatment. I wish the other two could have the same opportunity
I am sorry you’re having a bad day though3 -
My boyfriend and I are going away this weekend for the 1st time in months. I can't wait to disconnect and spend some quality time together 🥰6

I wish i had a british accent sometimes. They can say basically anything and it sounds posh. “I left the rubbish until after I did the hooverin and now I have to hoover the carpet all over again. Litchrally a proper knob, aren’t I.”6

I like American accents, a bunch of quirky and nice ones going on in that mish-mash down south of the border.
If I was gonna get some really bad news, please find me someone with a soft southern accent to tell it to me..."I'm sorry ma'am, the world will be imploding in 5 minutes" vs someone from Jersey tho.
On the British accents - have you ever seen an episode of Geordie Shore? I speak "English" but I need subtitles for that accent!1 -
I love it and could listen to it all day
not a fan of british accents tbh but idk why2 -

Heck, we kicked'em out over two hundred years ago, just so we didn't have to listen to it.
