one of my favorite genres of post is "evocative imagery"

Also, like, I'm sorry but if you've set up a free shelter, and people refuse to go because sleeping on the sidewalk under a freeway bridge is more pleasant, that's fucking on you, that's not on them.

You really can't compete with sleeping under the overpass so you are going to force people into shelter?

Unspeakably cruel and stupid.

Most Correct Take on this subject.

AIUI the most common reason for this is that most shelters don't let you do drugs while at the shelter. If someone prefers doing drugs to sleeping in a bed is that the shelter's fault?

Reasons I have heard from local homeless about why they won't go to shelters include:

Can't bring your dog

Can't bring your prescribed medications

Can't sleep due to noise, light, or forced schedule

Fleas, bedbugs, and other infestations

More likely to get in a fight than when living on the street

More likely to get stolen from than when living on the street

Not enough space for personal belongings

Curfews that don't match work schedules

Why bother when there's a monthslong waitlist to get into the shelter, and then you get evicted from the shelter after a week, because you arrived two minutes after curfew, because the bus was late?

Requirement to hold down a job

Required to do daytime "volunteer" work at the shelter, preventing job-searching or actual job work

Required to attend Christian services, as often as twice daily

Those last two in particular were listed as reasons that people don't use the single available shelter in Grants Pass.

also, yeah, it is the shelter's fault if someone chooses sleeping outside over dealing with any/all of the above while also going through drug withdrawals. The average adult doesn't want to go a day without coffee, and yet can't understand why the immensely painful/dangerous ordeal of quitting hard drugs cold turkey is a turnoff from a bed in a shelter. Almost anyone would pick their tent on the sidewalk to avoid that experience. Put a damn safe injection site in your shelter.

this doesn't make much sense. just an excuse to draw them wearing each other's merch.

it's really funny that even people who support luigi mangione have like fully bought into the propaganda being pushed that he's the one who did it when he hasn't been convicted of shit and is extremely likely just some guy the nypd and eric adams could reasonably pass off as the person who did it to save face. That huge fucking perp walk (that shouldn't have even been legal to do) was to plant the idea in the public's mind that yeah, obviously this guy did it, why would they be doing this if he wasnt, and you all fell for it without even thinking about it.

You can support the actions of the person who did it while also believing the fact that the famously corrupt NYPD who completely fumbled around for days, posted multiple pictures of different people in similar clothing claiming they were the same suspect, and then out of nowhere said they knew with 100% certainty who did it and already had him in custody, might be lying and simply selected some dude to take the fall.

not many know this but you can actually headcanon neurodivergencies other than adhd and autism. yes, even the Big Scary disorders like DID, schizophrenia or narcissism. no, not only for villains. yes, for the main characters, the important characters, the characters that you love. yeah!!!

no nonblack person experiencing heartbreak, dont post that Beloved by Toni Morrison quote on your stories!!!

butchniqabi

hey. look at me. "love is or it aint, thin love aint love at all." is not about having an inattentive partner. its not even about romance. it is about familial bonds under slavery. please read beloved before you use that quote to caption your breakup posts, okay?
