    I only recently got out of homelessness. Up until then it was a disaster of trying to access services. Most are meant for people who desperately need help but have barriers to access that will prevent those very people from getting a hold of said services. It took me years to get out of that situation and when I did it was because I had a stable address and a phone number. That’s it. Hell, even now the services are often wildly inadequate. I have been dumpster diving for food the past few days because the food bank simply can’t cater to the massive need that’s spiked up.

    We need solutions instead of these extra speedbumps.

      Hey, I often participate in random acts of pizza on imgur. If you would like, I could order some pizza to yours so you have a meal or two. <3

        I appreciate it but I’m a paranoid mess of a person with no hope, self respect or drive anymore. Just waiting to die and I don’t want to waste someone elses money on the likes of me.
