2020-09-21 at 7:20 AM UTCTry being homeless in San Francisco, living out of a van (as I did.. and at one time near a river aka Walnut Creek). In the summer time. When San Francisco changes wind directions and sucks fog in around late June. live there until September when it starts to burn off. Late at night, Second floor of a Garage totally exposed (though a secure spot with security guards) and have the fog roll in and being like 2 blocks from a Lighthouse and Foghorn.
COLD. A WET COLD. FOG IS LIKE 1 DEGREE ABOVE FREEZING POINT.
Fuck its cold, you try to fight bronchitis, your windows get fogged up and dripping with cold-sweat condensation from your smelly fog breath.
Thats what Mark fucking Twain should of wrote about San Francisco. when he was a fucking nobody before his faggoted pretentious pen name he created in case people hated his poems and stories while working at San Francisco Examiner or chronicle or whatever the fuck it was called back then.
fuck being homeless in fog, smell of urine everywhere and poo. oh, and loud ass seagulls that fly inland with the fog and foghorn blowing.
Sorry, I'm having a flashback of a moment that sucked but was a step or two up from being more sucky and homeless. -

2020-09-21 at 3:21 PM UTCTheres this smackhead thats been coming back to the same corner at the intersection by my house for the past few years. He just sits there and panhandles, has a bike that i guess he rides from wherever the fuck he sleeps at and has pretty much become a fixture in the neighborhood. The man's skinny a.f and looks starving all the time but still manages to bike his ass to multiple pan spots. How this dude continues to live ill never know...

I have heard that some homeless people cannot get food stamps so they just eat rats which r actually quite nutritious -

Lol i'd imagine the panhandling brings at least some modicum of success for him or he wouldn't keep coming back year after year. Probly survives on cheap gas station food and handouts. -

I think people just say that to help them cope. I mean, it is more free, but there's also a lot of hardships involved that I think most people choose to avoid if they can afford it. I've been hitchhiking and while it's cool as hell to be able to go anywhere by sticking out your thumb, you spend a lot of time waiting, exposed to the elements, dealing with police, not knowing where you'll sleep at night, physical exhaustion from walking so much, etc.
There's a reason rich people don't really live a hitchhiking life. I have read about this one rich old dude who hitchhikes once a year, but the rest of the time he spends in his house living a normal life. The experience is cool but living rough and dirty in a city just because of 'freedom'? Eh. I don't buy it.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

True, i honestly don't see anything liberating about shooting dope and panhandling at the same intersection for years on end. I suppose if you absolutely hate having a job and bills to pay it could be some sort of freedom. Your "office" is the street corner and couch surfing/living in a tent under a bridge would be home. But eh i don't see how anyone in they're right mind could think of it as a superior lifestyle without some serious mental gymnastics.
Bet if that dude was given a million bucks he'd go straight for the nearest house he could buy.... then O.D on high quality H. -
