actually your parents were just bitches, give money to the homeless. if you're so scared about them using your money for drugs, buy them a meal. buy them socks, blankets, hygiene products, clothes, water. if they have a pet buy food for them as well.
its horrifying to me how normalized it is to see people living on the street, and just walk by them with a disgusted glance. i dont care how they got there. i dont care what they're doing to get out of the situation. if you have control of your money, if you have enough to spare. what reason is there not to help them, even if it's just a bit?

If you're ever in my parents' mindset and say the reason homeless people are homeless is because they are mentally fucked and won't help themselves (or choose to be homeless), go and learn something in school for once.
Most homeless people I see/hear of anymore are homeless because they've been through hell and can't financially support themselves, or pay for medication to support their mental health and hence will not be accepted into jobs. They can't even afford clothing to be presentable for an interview or to even show up to work without being looked down upon/fired for lack of cleanliness.
And people who aren't even like the first point, are still caught in the second one. They don't have the money to afford an outfit for work to not be immediately dropped on their ass for being unclean. And plus, if ever given money, these people will need food. They will buy food with the money, not clothes.
And some places won't hire homeless people regardless of anything. People are assholes and this is America, this is capitalism. They take everything you own and when you have nothing left, they let you die. That's the entire point of it being like this.
(And the people who physically cannot get a job and sustain it are fucked too).
Even when we are kind enough to help those in need, there are too many perfectly wealthy people who fake being homeless/in need that we've lost hope in those who are actually in need of our help.
Please stop this madness.

Since people seem to have a hard time imagining the world I want to live in, I will describe the one I do not want to live in.
I do not want to live in a world where housing is a privilege.
I do not want to live in a world where healthy food is a privilege.
I do not want to live in a world where clean water is a privilege.
I do not want to live in a world where healthcare is a privilege.
I do not want to live in a world where safe transportation is a privilege.
I do not want to live in a world where clean air is a privilege.
If we must live in such a world then it is our right and duty to build a better one.

And yet, they'll let these homes rot while tearing down forests to build deluxe condos.

FORGET HOSTILE ARCHITECTURE
WE NEED FRIENDLY ARCHITECTURE
maybe this bench has walls and heating
maybe this bench happens to be the exact size shape and feel of a queen sized matress
maybe this bench has a fully functioning kitchen that happens to be directly next to it

Hey you see that person shoplifting?
No you didn’t.
You see someone sleeping in their car?
No you didn’t.
People are already struggling don’t make it worse.

Cardboard sign old and bent, says "Friend for Life 25¢" When did this start makin' sense man it's really getting cold Sometimes I forget things and I get confused I could still be working but they refuse Now I'm livin' with the bums, the whores and the abused Man I hate gettin' old Homeless...get away from here Don't give 'em no money they just spend it on beer Homeless...will work for food You'll do anything that you gotta do when you're homeless

these kinds of "seats" at bus stops are anti homeless, anti disabled and honestly anti everyone because they're so damn uncomfortable. I can't even sit on them, I have to lean on them because they're often put at such a steep angle.
Tumblr media
Image description: red seats at a bus stop shelter. they are extremely narrow and at a slight angle making them difficult to sit on. end image description.
"but if we don't do that, homeless people will sleep there!"
if you want homeless people to sleep somewhere else SO BADLY, donate to your local homeless shelter with warmth and comfortable beds, so homeless people won't HAVE to sleep in public spaces.
"but lots of people choose to be homeless"
no they don't. that's what's shown on TV a lot for shock factor and entertainment value. this is EXTREMELY rare. stop trying to make yourself feel better about the fact that you're doing nothing, AND DO SOMETHING.
