Life on the street Anonymage 01/31/24 (Wed) 16:00:23 No.310769 [Reply]

Do you have experience living on the streets?
How does your country treat the homeless?
How do you remain warm and fed?

As someone that will likely be homeless one day I wonder how should I prepare myself…

>The people not saying it's shit are people who are roleplaying and lying.
That's a very convenient thing to believe if you're someone who can't fathom other men succeeding where you yourself have failed. I've been here for years and know of 4 examples of guys who posted photos of their homelessness and went on to make excellent cases for how they endured and even enjoyed it. The 5th guy I know who did this is myself. Then there's the further testimonials from anonymages who affirmed that being permanently out-and-about isn't so bad when you've got a sound mind and body.

Then there's you, once again fearmongering and getting angry at the fact that not everyone is so cowardly as yourself in the face of living beyond the comforts of a home. I laugh at you and post this cute manga gal to cleanse the thread of your whining and projections.

Homeless are either people who normalfag so hard they're incompatible with society or people who are so abnormal that they never even had a chance. You'll meet homeless who spent their entire teens and 20s doing nothing but having sex and taking drugs, and homeless who are in their teens and 20s who can hardly speak to another person.

I was a bum in Australia for a few months. The only thing I have to say about the lifestyle is that it gets much better once you find an abandoned building to sleep in. Sleeping on the literal streets is shit, but if you have a carpet beneath you and four walls and a roof around you it's as comfy as you make it.

The thing is in ANZ you can physically do that.

Try being homeless in an arctic climate during the coldest months, and your mind realizes why there are practically zero homeless people in these countries.

They have all died or get emergency housing.

There is scientific research linking screen use with social anxiety. I think this is part of gen Z's problem. They are all addicted to screens and all have some level of social anxiety. Not that I am any different. I asked my dad when we first got an internet connection and he says we had one ever since I was born. We were early adopters I guess. I didn't really use internet much until the neopets era though. I didn't really do neopets but I say that because it is the only site I remember being popular at the time. I wonder if that like 10 years or so of my life made me any different fundamentally than zoomers who grew up using ipads during that time of their life. My social anxiety is far worse, my internet addiction probably too, so I doubt it.

>Men were not ushered into being for the purpose of being saved or lost! God-manifestation, not human salvation, was the grand purpose of the Eternal Spirit. The salvation of a multitude is incidental to the manifestation, but it was not the end purpose. The Eternal Spirit intended to enthrone Himself on the earth and, in so doing, to develop a divine family from among men, every one of whom shall be spirit because born of the Spirit; and that this family shall be large enough to fill the earth, when perfected, to the entire exclusion of flesh and blood.

Recently I came across this interesting viewpoint. In a way, this perspective solves the "Problem of Evil", doesn't it? Because, from this standpoint, humans exist for the purpose of making the world into what the Deity wants. Humans are essentially Spirit-machines, or a highly-advanced tool. Much as a human makes a specific tool for a specific purpose: he designs the tool of a hammer for the task of smacking a nail; the tool of a pogo stick for hopping into the heavens. So too did God design the tool of a human for the purpose of shaping the world to His liking.
God did not create the world for humans to have happy-go-lucky lives free of suffering and pain, so the fact that suffering and pain happens to exist in our world isn't necessarily His fault or even His concern (as much as accepting such a truth may hurt). Ultimately, the "Problem of Evil" ends with the final question of "Why call him God?" The answer is a simple, not-so-comfortable truth: YOU DON'T HAVE TO.

I don't like being in setting in which people can form opinions of me. I think it's because of my own lack of self esteem. I think that if people get to know me, they won't like me, so it causes me anxiety to be in a situation where people can form opinions of me. This has lead me to gravitate towards anonymous imageboards. I wonder if OP is experiencing an extreme form of this to the point where he even assumes mods could be stalking him. OP if you are reading this, please let me know because I am curious if this is your reason or if it is something else entirely.

The problem is every time I spent my money on things that made me happy and optimistically thought I'll just make that money back, I never did.
It's very hard to replenish savings as an autist. It might be years before you get another job or your parents aid you.

Then bad stuff happened like my beater car suddenly requiring $1400 in repairs to run, and my washing machine broke down. I had to beg my grandparents for a loan and they started loathing me.

So now I have $20k saved up due to that trauma. From eating ultra frugally and not spending a cent on anything but the cheapest foods that have nutritional value.
And I'm afraid to spend even a cent of it in case I need it for catastrophes.

At this point, I feel physically ill if I have to spend more than $10 in one day.
Money has ruined my psyche and is the only thing I think about 99% of the time.

i have a similar outlook, i try to not spend any as hard as i can and i don*t care if my clothes are stained or worn down. i never think about it though.

i don't spend but there is tons of stuff i need or should replace, especially considering how fragile supply chains are getting and how products are getting worse and how the concept of ownership is under attack by the fascists with all the money engage in culling the heard by making everything worse and worse. they could just repeat the covid theater tomorrow and since they have enough violent enforcers and accomplices, i'd be locked into my little room again.

money feels so evil, i resent having to use it and having to think about it at all. only thing where i could save money but don't is organic food, everywhere else i choose the cheapest option. money was a mistake.

Which is my whole point. If you donate them, you're not using them, you're throwing it away.
But if it makes you feel good, go on with your delusion and enjoy the feeling.

The "Mainstream Media" is a Jewish-owned talking monster that vomits out unending streams of reality-distorting disinformation daily through the little mouths of the CIA officers who pretend to be news anchors. No man from such a number of satanic tricksters would ever even dream of challenging their kosher hyper-moneyed bosses by speaking something truthful. The fake attribution of the goytalk ban is just another belligerent brick being laid up antecedent to the starting of a war between ZOG puppet state A (America) and ZOG puppet state B (China). They've been financing both sides of huge international conflicts for centuries. We live under their cult. I hope you're paying attention.

Wizards, do not forget that ISIS is Mossad. The original name they used for their group was Israeli Secret Intelligence Service (ISIS). This most recent attack is a false flag meant to provide a casus belli for further escalation into WWIII. Also, the jews responsible for the attack carried it out on Purim (as revenge against the hated goyim). The bombing of Baghdad (2003) was also carried out on that year's Purim.

you might have been better served building a crappy version yourself from old bike parts. companies seem to be getting more and more uninterested in offering goods and services, they just do what they do to make money. if i lived like that and viewed human existence as a competition for the exchange resource i'd be profoundly unhappy.

if you don't leave it anywhere you can drive around on it, though i agree with everything you said. computers were so nice before apps.

i like mine because i keep it in my car and when i don't find a parking space near my house i can park far away and use the scooter to drive home. cities were such a mistake. the idea to make them livable is fundamentally misguided, humans were never meant to live in density, it is an abomination.

Unsafe in what way? I agree that they are privacy violations, but aren't the potential harms dependent on your identified threat models, and many people seem to have threat models that do not suffer much from using cloud services.

Also, Google Play services encompass far more than just Google Drive, pretty much every feature has it's tendrils in it, unless you're using a de-Googled ROM.

The only way to achieve iOS levels of anonymity and lack of prying eyes is precisely through using a de-Googled ROM like Lineage or Calyx.

As for cloud services, as said above, it is 100% certain the drives get scanned by said companies.
