pro-tip: living on the streets is a million times better than jail/prison

Agreed. When you're on the streets you can spend all day getting to and from the places you get food, bathe, do laundry, and then sleep. Generally it's a terrible aspect of homeless life but it beats the soul crushing boredom of confinement.

This is really the unknown part of being homeless. Every minor thing you do that would be something trivial when you have a house is an entire experience when you're homeless like making GBS threads, washing, washing clothes, stealing/robbing/hustling food, etc. Your day is pretty loving filled and that doesn't include the stealing, hustling, buying and selling drugs part that is a centerpiece of the lifestyle.

But if you already have clean clothes you can spend all that extra free time by walking two hours to the library to use a slow as poo poo computer with a 30 minute time limit to apply for jobs. This doesn't just mean uploading resumes because the more entry level a job is the more details their application demands. Hope you have all that memorized or you know how to use google drive.

Oh, there's a 45 minute wait to use a computer. Better just head back now or you won't make it to the shelter in time for dinner. Maybe tomorrow.

Many people say that when you're destined to be homeless you should spend your last money on a gym membership.

For real this, but Planet Fitness, and gently caress that place. There might be 1 or 20 in your city and 1000+ nationwide, so wherever you go you can find a shower and maybe a place where someone sees you shaving and wants to suck your dilznick.

Highschool food has seasoning.

I almost cried tears of joy cried when I got a salt/pepper packet on Thanksgiving

It's all a mushy semblance of food, but goddamn if it actually has flavor...never mind the miracle of when it's still hot by the time it gets to one's pod

Really big gyms like Planet Fitness and LA Fitness are also nice because they don't pay any attention to you. If you go into a smaller gym they will follow you around to sell you one-on-one training and smoothies. They'll eventually realize you just shower without working out and they'll make things weird.

But what's better is the 24 hour places like Anytime or Snap Fitness. Your best chance at work will probably be working evenings at a restaurant. Being able to go to a gym at 1am and shower sure beats falling asleep in your car still stinking of french fries.

But again:
1. PO Box
2a. Free trial weeks at every accessible gym
2b. Gym membership

Being snowed into your home, so that you can not leave.

No seasoning on your food, including the most two basic loving human seasonings of salt and pepper.

Also, :lol: Humanity and a basic amount of society.


It's no wonder people move to the east coast.

this is the dumbest poo poo. lol you don't keep paying bills and collecting mail once your homeless. if you want a shower go to a public beach, or sponge yourself off in a 7-11 restroom.

lol jym memberships and PO boxes. you need that money for drugs, duh

most people don't have a beach and birdbathing in a convenience store is dumb

every area has an apartment complex with a pool that no one uses so use that

keeping your money for drugs instead of PO box and gym is correct, though
