Homeless General -Question edition

Last thread on page 9


My q.

My city has no shelter or beds, but they give out tents, sleeping bags and food kits. Is this a common practice across the US? Saw a dude walking down the street. Looked like he got a six man tent.

Worst part about this is the city is "homeless friendly" and wont get rid of them. Everything from the greyhound station to cityhall and the courts are covered with bums. I honestly dgaf about the city but the river is completly trashed. Iget it that you've given up on life but PICK UP AFTER YOUR GODDAMN SELVES AT LEAST.

Nothing wrong with being homeless, HELL my state considers living in a fucking hotel "HOMELESS"

I don't like these keywords as such homeless, or vegabond because its stupid! if youre someone who travels on a budget, who just wants to see their country. THAT'S COOL. doesn't make you homeless, or any other self righteous given name. you are you.

As long as you are nice and respectful to people who help you and whom you come across. you're cool. This means, if you meet someone and they offer you a free meal, fucking offer to clean the dishes you fucking discourteous cunts. like accepting free stuff is alright, but don't outright take it for granted like you fucking earned/deserve it.

As long as you WORK when you need money and food, and not LEECH. You are cool in my book.

As long as you don't leave trash around where you stay. Cool as well.

As long as you are mentally stable/on meds for mental issues, and avoid drugs and booze. Cool in my book.

And as long as you aren't going around spreading the name of jesus, believe rocks give you magical powers, or any of that weird "Trendy" shit people do now days, like huluhoops... seriously. fuck huluhoops and all that turned them into some fucking retarded "CULTURE" then your cool.

but if you break any

I'm a bun who is trying to eat his daily veggies, problem is, buying them fresh, I have to get more than I can eat before a decent amount spoils. So I end up having to waste money cus I don't wanna eat a pound of kale everyday. Another option is to buy premade salads, which have a good daily portion but they are expensive. So I've been eating canned shit, for a dollar I can get a small can with a pop top that has enough portions for one person for one day. So my question is, out ofthese two options what should I get: Peas&carrots, or spinach. Or both. The spinach has more vitamins and shit, but do I need to cook it? The peas and cars taste better, but do they have enough vitamins?

There's a lot of hate in these threads nowadays, isn't there?

The best time of my life was when I was a poor traveler. As soon as I rejoined society as a working man, I started hating myself again. Right now, I'm saving up for a very long vacation.

Some people would rather work and try to accumulate wealth, some care less about wealth than how they spend their time. What works for one person, won't necessarily work for everyone.

Do what makes you happy, and fuck what anyone else thinks.

I wonder why threads about homeless people tend to bring out the really edgy and sociopathic posters on this website. No one cares that much when talking about hippies or cairns, but when it comes to homeless people, all of a sudden you have posts about stalking them and killing them or doing other horrific things to make their lives miserable. Why the sudden vitriol?

Depends on the weather.
I'd rather make my own shelter if needed, or just sleep on the ground.

I jus spent a while in Canada a month ago, actually. Innacar, granted, but it seems quite similar, imo. Only difference was, I was more hesitant to commit any petty crimes because of possible b.s. with passport. Overall, no trouble. Being an all English speaker myself, there was a bit of a language barrier in Ontario and Quebec. No conversations beyond the realm of small talk.

Go for it, anon. And if you don't dig it, America awaits...

>HELL my state considers living in a fucking hotel "HOMELESS"

I was staying in an extended stay for about 6 months when I moved to the area I am in now. I had intentions of buying a house, and making six figures so paying an extra $300/month at the extended stay was easier for me than getting a lease on an apartment.

It was awkward when I applied for a mortgage with a 6 figure salary and 50% down payment. The bank classified me as homeless as per state guidance, and denied me. I ended up using a co-workers address for my mail so I wouldn't be deemed homeless.

Man I love these threads, it's always interesting to read about such a different way of life. I've always had the dream of just getting up one day with just a backpack and a couple hundred bucks and just take off for maybe a year or two, traveling around the country. I have the savings to do it, but I know I have a romanticized, unrealistic vision of what living on the road would actually be like, and I'm really comfy right now, have my own place and cats and a gf.

Anyone know some good reads about the topic? On The Road is my favorite book.

Bums make people uncomfortable. Homeless people make normal people uncomfortable.

Theres nothing worse than the feeling of pulling up to a stoplight and seeing a beggar eyeing you like a piece of meat, especially when you yourself are struggling to put more than ten dollars into your gas tank so you can get back and forth to work.

Professional bums are the scum of the earth. They encroach on people obeying traffic laws knowing they can't escape. And who's to say if that homeless man isn't a deranged psycho who's looking to mug you?

No, you human pieces of trash. You make every working person uncomfortable. You literally impose yourself on strangers because you don't want to work.

If you want to travel then save up money from any jobs you work, then hike off to the next town like people have done for years.

Step Two: Clean up your hobocamp, throw out your trash.
Step Three: Get a job, find a HOME to live in.
Step Four: Continue being a productive member of society.
>>
>>852715
Hobo-bums really are the scourge of society. There are a ton of resources available to anyone who is willing to adopt the basic habits of functional members of society. Things like no hard drugs, and no alcohol abuse.They need to have mild hygiene and pick up their trash. Finally, they need to cease constantly being on a hair trigger for violence and degrading acts. If they are chill and have the smallest semblance of respect for other people (aka society) they're not homeless long- there's a ton of resources available to them and jobs will happen.

>>852715
The only trait i find irritating about the homeless people who post in these threads is that a lot of them won't admit that their lifestyle is only made possible by the benevolence and charity of working people, imagine if nobody ever gave homeless people change, the hobo and drifter community would just dry up apart from the few intelligent or skilled drifters/hobos and yet a lot of homeless people ridicule us wagecucks.

Personally i think everybody should work, everybody can do Something and whilst i think that looking after disadvantaged people is something that we should do as a compassionate society i think that some people take the fucking piss.

>trimming weed
what did he mean by this?
>>
>>853374
Exactly this. While we're on the subject there's a few definitions which used to apply (Depression era when people actually cared about what words meant):

>A Hobo is a guy who travels and is looking for work. He's willing to work and wants honestly earned money. Sometimes this implies he is looking for any work and will set down roots if he finds the right job.

>A Tramp is a guy who doesn't want to work, and will only work if forced to. Tramps don't necessarily travel. You can see Charlie Chaplain referred to as a tramp in his movies because he mostly doesn't want to work.

>A Bum is a guy who doesn't work at all.
>>
>>853101
I think this is a great thread. Vagabond-junkies are being reminded to pick up their trash. The realities of living in the gutter are being brought up- not this fairyland bullshit about living free and never working again. I'm glad you are posting from your bedroom.

Bus anon here. There's plenty of other ways to get food. Dumpster diving is pretty goat if you just take some time to plan first. Food banks arent really viable because they mostly have things you have to cook, but you can go that route too. My favorite way of getting food while im traveling is to busk outside restraunts with a sign that just says food please. You dont have to harass anybody and a lot of the time people thank me for playing outside patios and shit, even if they dont kick down any food they appreciate it and let me know so thats nice. People are pretty exclusively good out here. I think folks around /out/ get the wrong idea because of the shitposters. No one should go hungry in the USA, there is far more than plenty to go around.

near Appalachian trail. Should I just hike the trail and see what happens? I don't know what else to do. Can you pick berries on the trail? How do you know what's edible and what's poisonous?

>>
>>854155
not same bro, but did thru hike it. It's not crazy expensive to hike the AT if you do it right. Buy your shoes from REI and return them everytime they crap out. Then return them when you're done and get your $$ back. Forget about the berries, even if there were tons you'd have a hell of a time eating enough every day. There really were only a few prime weeks in August that I saw them- that was up in ME.

I met one guy who started hiking. Got board 500-600 miles in, hitch hiked around the country for a few months, got back on much later and "finished" (missed about 1000 miles, but everyone's different). He then spent the next year living the bum dream. That was when I met him. No idea what he's up to now.

I do recommend it though. Mental health is not something to be taken lightly, but this may be a better fix for what ails you than talking to a shrink. Definitely will make it easier to figure out the next step than hanging out on this board will.

How does any hobo eat?

By dumpster diving (most supermarkets toss shit that only actual germophobes would consider gross), or by spanging.

Here's some hobo voodoo. Find a wal mart off the highway and stand at the turn in to the parking lot. Get you a sharpie and get a piece of cardboard (it's fucking cardboard it should be easy to find) and make a sign that says some stupid bullshit on it like "travelling, hungry and broke". Fly that bitch and within a few hours you should have plenty of money. Seriously most travellers can feed themselves and their fucking drug habits by doing this, it's surprisingly lucrative.

Fuck the AT. Spend the fall hitch hiking out of the east. Go to slab city. Obtain knowledge, meet people like you that have separated from society and know the ropes. Its a completely different world in the traveler scene. Get a new lease on life anon. Im posted up in Tulsa for the winter and if you come through i can show you a good time and teach you some shit. Hitch hike. Do it, its great. Fly signs along the interstate for money and rides, you will literally have everything you need handed to you by really nice people who just want to help you. It isnt like these threads irl, no one is out to guilt trip you or be a dick. You, and anyone else, can get ahold of me at outinnawoods@gmail. Theres a whole new world out here just waiting for you. I havent even touched on rainbow or freight. You have options my dude. No reason to feel like shit any more.

You need barely anything to just survive. Stuff to sleep with, a way to carry water. I dont know a thing about Aus, but the only other issue in surviving is food and its never been a problem for me in the US. Get some multi vitamins before it all goes down so you can supplement a bit if you end up not eating real well. If there is any outreach where you live there will be feeds, i.e. hit the church/shelter for free lunch. I only do that if i cant find anything else though. You wanna make sure youre getting enough sleep, that shit can throw everything off and make walking around all day a fuckin bitch. Is it very urban where you are? Will it be easy to find a place sort of tucked away to sleep?

I just feel like I can't handle one more day of working some job. But I'm not sure if I would feel ok about being a leech and getting on welfare or food stamps. I'm not even sure how to go about doing that anyway.

If he's suicidal because of social problems, then he's not gonna magically gonna get better because he's a hobo. If he has major depression, he's not gonna get better by being a hobo. You're exaggeration is in that you think this life is a one fits all solution for everybody. As the saying goes, wherever you go, there you are. You will still have all your strengths and weaknesses when you're a hobo just as you do as a housie. And how long have you been doing this, because yes travel is very good at first, but eventually you need something more. The way you romanticize it makes me think you're still pretty young.

I didnt say that at all guy, maybe you should get a grip? Also i doubt you truly know a single thing about this lifestyle. And hey, if you do, guess what? You did it wrong. How bout a crust check there senpai? How many years you got? Im deep down in this shit. Maybe you should try to bring people up instead of shitting on me based on your flawed understanding of my own input.

>find the job you love and you'll never work a day in your life
..is a saying for a reason. It might not be popular on this thread but people refer to their jobs/careers as how they make their "living" for more than just the money. We're like huskies, we're happy when we're pulling the sled but also have time to rest. Don't work to hard, but do work. The trick is finding the right job. Since you're on /out/ there's always an outdoors job thread, you should check that out. Honestly if I could have five years added to my life to do whatever the fuck I want I'd become a wilderness firefighter- that shit sounds dope, and there's gotta be a ton of pussy waiting for you when you get into town.

I know shit seems like it sucks, but it'll pass and you'll have times when you wonder why you felt that way. Don't hurt yourself or hate yourself, and recognize that it's just a phase and it'll pass, and try to just be good to yourself and set yourself up to be doing something cool (hey even a fastfood job can be cool) when you're feeling better.

Being homeless in the right city (ex. San Francisco) is awesome. You don't have to work, you can get food stamps food, your time is all your own, etc.. If you want a slightly more stable life, you can earn a minimal amt of money and rent a storage locker, join the YMCA for showers, etc..

Being homeless in the wrong city (ex. Chicago) sucks, due to terrible weather, much less resources, and hard times hustling, due to widespread poverty.

I encourage everyone on /out/ (who has not thrown their life away to children) to spend some time hitching or train hopping, exploring your region without the responsibilities of a steady job, renting, etc..
>>
>>852187
Check out Squat the Planet. Its a forum with literally everything you'd need to be happy and healthy on the road. If you're USA, West Coast from Oregon through Northern California is a really good place to start. Also check out Olympic National Park in WA. Very easy hitching, awesome dumpster, etc.

I've done a decent amount of vagabond stuff in the US but have never been to Slab City. I'm thinking of going out there for the winter this year. I don't have a car/camper, but am fine with just a tent, small propane stove, water jug, etc..

Can anyone share their experiences about the Slab? What should I expect?

Use a tarp, I usually carry two and mostly only use the one for a ground cover - sleeping innadoorway or under an overhang when it rains, picture related, most churches don't have anything going on throughout the week and often have an overhang somewhere.

A tarp is more easily replaced and it has way more versatility than a tent, plus it usually weighs less to have two tarps and some 550 rather than a 5lb tent/stakes.

>>858072
I don't have a solar charging pad but they're definitely useful and I've seen several people with one. Generally I just find a random outlet, though sometimes I'll use a coffee shop to recharge.

I'm planning a world trip. I'm basically heading out with no end destination.

I'll be WWOOF'ing most of the time, but I'd like to live as frugally as possible between places. Hitchhike, only cook myself, and so on.

Go with no reservations, slabs can be a really good time. It looks like shit on purpose, after into the wild and when people found out about salvation mountain it blew up as a tourist spot, so slabbers started throwing trash around to make it less appealing. Some people will yell at you if you try to pick up their trash.

Don't kys anon. My best friend did 6 months ago. Fucked up a lot of people man. Use that money to put an add in the paper. Can do labor and such. Find some abandoned house to squat in and get a job? Use the money for cheap survival gear and start fishing or moose hinting or wtf ever yall do up there. Join the militairy. I dont know wtf u do there besides stand around and watch us fucking ameivans pick a war twice a week. They feed u. How old are ya?

Depression/anxiety checking in.

Gl to u. Try and find things that make u happy and keep you busy. My biggest problem is hating myself and wanting to die.

Im fortunate i got to hang out with a very pretty friend and have some drinks with a few people rescently. I'm married so no shenannigans. Besides. Shes like a 10/10 in every way and i'm probably a soft 4 (lol) on a good day.

It is nice have someone say nice things to you though. I woke up today and didnt want to kill myself for the first time in 6 months. I suggest making some friends. Even if they homeless tryhards.

Also been many times to the shrink. Pretty much just said get a hobby and get rest. Force yourself to eat enough to be healthy etc...

Fake being better until u are better or die of old age.

Ignore the shitposters.

Good luck!

Can agree. We were drinking beer and burni g a pasture and some cunt lit up behind us. Surrounded by fire. Just about to jump in the pond when my bro showed up in a grass rig and saved us.

Burning alive cant be fun and we had no idea what danger we were in until it was too late.

Removing without vielence. Litterally take all their shit to another spot. Fake a letter from the cops? Just set it on fire when they leave? Dunno short of just gathering like 39 people and making them leave.

underrated

bums, tramps, oogles, crusties, etc can go fuck themselves. You're lazy and worthless. The only reason you can eat with your EBT card is because other people aren't leeches on society, and have part of their check donated to your "buy this cereal, return it later for cash, and buy beer" card. You aren't edgy with your stick and poke face tattoo, leftover crack is a shit band, knowing the CSX line is not a life skill, "puke" is a shitty street name, and only reason you convince yourself that what you're doing is okay is because you have quit on everything your entire life. You have never made and kept a commitment, because you are weak and can't live without being coddled. Enjoy using a rubber band and bic as a capo for your banjo with 2 string future dumpster coffin resident. Please overdose.

What do you guys think about the life quality dilemma? It's surely obvious that life expectancy is much lower and disease is much higher for the homeless. Now, when working a job, a regulated life per-se you have a large amount of energy. You never slow down. Now people on the dole or out of work I'd theorize have a chronic lack of energy from the chronic lack of inactivity. How do the homeless justify this?

You always call us wageslaves, but at least the weight of our ankles don't feel like shackles.

>>864371
Hahaha shit anon, yeah you SURE hit the nail on the head. Fuckin know nothing butthurt bitch

Kekd to death

>>864380
None of that is actually an issue.
>>
>>864339
Its all good mayne, im set. But if you wanna meet up and shoot the shit im down. You saw my email. Hit me up.
>>
>>864413
This is completely false. Absolutely, entirely false. How could you so boldly say something so incorrect?

Another dilemma I have, what do the homeless do to provide for their families? Is there no desire for good foresight and forward actions towards being able to provide and protect your children and elders? Is family a non-existant idea for homeless?
>>
>>864425
Heh, guy, you can shitpost all you want but if you truly desire info i am one of two reliable sources ITT. You are ignorant, thats okay because most people are when it comes to this subject. Homeless=/=suffering.
>>
>>864427
I'm not implying you're suffering. I don't know you. How can you call me ignorant for asking questions? This is the type of volatile mindset that concerns me. It's a fact that inactivity leads to depression and lethargy. Being an outlier in this does not and will not ever make this false.

My two questions were
1) How do the homeless maintain a functional morale?
And
2) How do the homeless deal with families? Not simply keeping relationships, specifically taking care of your family.

I would like to know how this is shitposting and I would also like to know how my questions make me ignorant.

It would be an honest and acceptable answer to say "I don't cope with my inactivity, or am at least young enough to not notice, and I also have cut all ties with my family." Don't think I'm implying this is an unacceptable answer, there is nothing to hide.
>>
>>864533
Im calling you ignorant for your assumptions, not your questions.

As for the answers, there is no lack of morale. The people who hate their lives as homeless hate their lives no matter what and it is usually a product of addiction. As far as providing for your family, there is no lack of money. Once again, poverty is a main side effect of addiction. You and many others here assume all homeless are destitute, helpless, and or mentally incapable. As for the tools of the trade, you need only to lurk moar and read. Im not worried about what you believe, as such i do not concern myself with repetition for your benefit. Take whatever stance you want, but there is no reason to assume your percieved issues are relevant at all, and it is not particularly wise to tell me i am wrong about aspects of the life i have been living for years.
>>
>>864412
>no nothing
I've ridden rails, I've housed travelers, I've toured in bands, and I've traveled (rubber tramp you'd call me then) extensively. You and your kind are just pathetic. Sorry

Just keep posting anon, do it!
>>
>>864540
First of all, they aren't assmptions. They're pure hard facts. Now you mistake me for assuming that this covers all homeless, obviously it does not. Both questions revolve around main issues being depression and poverty and addiction, not homelessness itself. This is obvious.

What I am curious about is the ability to maintain peak physical shape and alertness while homeless, and also maintaining familial obligations.

You are too defensive, and didn't actually address any of this.

Obviously people are all unique, this is so obvious. Please stop thinking I wouldn't be fully aware of this.

Let me make it easier, don't speak for anyone else. How do you do these things? Or do you not?
>>
>>864546
>rejecting someones life experiences because it inhibits my initial reaction to their statement
>being this triggered
Sorry man. Maybe there will be some more money on your ebt tomorrow.
>>
>>864552
>maintain peak physical shape and alertness

You realize these people just huddle in squats with other tramps and crust punks drinking shitty booze and smoking Crack right? They literally don't care for anything of the things you're asking about. They are content leeching on society until the well runs dry and they have to move on or die
>>
>>864552
You need to re-evaluate what fact and assumption mean. See, when you are talking about something you know nothing of, and calling the words you type facts, you are in fact posting assumptions.

I stay fit by not being a slovenly fuck. I eat well, and my life lends itself to staying active and healthy. As far as providing for my family, or others who i take in, i make plenty of money and have no problem getting anyone what they need. If you would lurk moar, you would know almost every aspect of my life. Dont be afraid to read anon. If youd like to know more, you are going to have to be more specific.

>>
>>864561
No, you lack reading comprehension. Its a fact that familial ties and health is damaged due to depression, poverty and addiction. This is not an assunption.

Thank you for answering my questions, see, I don't need to lurk if you're simply willing to answer questions.

Sounds like you have a decent system, have a good one.

Begin each interaction with positive intent brother, I'm not against you for asking questions. And to finish this off, you were the one that connected my facts to homelessness.
>>
>>864572
Im not worried either way, but just for the record

>It's surely obvious that life expectancy is much lower and disease is much higher for the homeless
>This is completely false. Absolutely, entirely false. How could you so boldly say something so incorrect?
>Now people on the dole or out of work I'd theorize have a chronic lack of energy from the chronic lack of inactivity.

On that last one you covered your ass a bit but its obvious that you do indeed assume a lot. At any rate, like i said, if youd like to know more ask more specific questions. Its a bit of a bitch to just post generalizations thread after thread.
>>
>>864576
No, I wasn't assuming. Statistically this is completely true. I addressed the root causes so you wouldn't be so confused.
>>
>>864577
There is a whole world out here that you can not educate yourself on based on studies and statistics. You are ignorant, and you do assume. Its okay anon, you can overcome if you want, im here for you.

When you take in the information 2+2=4, it is not an assumption to tell someone it is 4.

Of course the world is vast, you come from such an acutely negative angle.

How many more obvious statements will you make?
>the world is large
>people are unique

What are you achieving? We aren't arguing. Theres nothing to argue about. What thoughts is your brain having that leads you to think these phrases are relavant? Actually I don't care to know, because they are likely supported by circular logic. Remember now, keyword "likely", Mr.Special unique snowflake.

Actually I love 7/11 hotdogs. Theres no better sloppy food to eat. Slathrr that chili and cheese an get your damn moneys worth with calories!

No, I don't think I'm missing the point. I'm a completely open minded person thats very independant, and you have surely made assumptions about me to oppose that. So, in my mind, you are very ironic.

I was asking you questions, and setting an environment by providing auxillery data.

I gotta be careful with that shit, its a bitch to have the shits when theres nowhere to shit.

Hey man, born in Nebraska and currently living in Washington here. How are you fairing with the Nebraska weather? I'd think it'd be too damn cold at night.

If you make it up here I'll share a joint with ya. I'm more of a hiker camper but the traveling life is so tempting to me. I'm a pretty good poker player too so I've always dreamed of traveling across US making cash when needed at casinos.

5 hours a day (probably more) 6 days a week.
Be at the mercy of someone else and need to ask someone for everything.
probably get military condition bed shower+ bathroom.

VS

Work for 8$p/h 5 hours a day 6 days a week= 960$
600$ on rent
360$ to eat whatever you feel like eating.

You know how to get out of your student loans? Call the company holding the loan and tell them you're homeless.

Working 40+ hours with no end in sight other than working until retirement, at which point this worked to the bone body will just slump into a chair until death =an impossible scenario in which, for me, to find anything motivating.
Having only what I need, going where I want, when I want, with no demands on MY time, living my life, spending time with like minded folks in beautiful places =all the motivation I'll ever need.
Home bums define the homeless as much as that tweaker at McD's defines working folks.
