I am barely holding it together in my nice, comfy life. In that scenario the first thing I would do is look for a nice, high building with roof access.

Not the best thing to suggest to anyone who may be in this situation…

[–] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.de 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I am not suggesting anything, I answered the question of what I would do.

[–] DBT@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I realize that. It’s still not a great thing to put out there for those looking for input.

[–] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.de 0 points 7 months ago

You are allowed to think that.

I would go the Social Services office and explain my situation. Provided I could prove my identity I would walk out with a couple hundred dollars cash, an address for decent temporary accommodations, and an appointment with a case worker to find a more permanent solution for me.

That's the security of the Nordic welfare state.

i dunno, the premise of this question seems to me like homelessness is a riddle that homeless people just have not figured out. im pretty sure that if the answer could be crowdsourced in eight hours from eighty sysadmins on the toilet, it wouldn't be such an intractable problem

eighty sysadmins on the toilet

I'll be damned if that isn't the most succinct and accurate description of Lemmy that I've ever seen.

... so that's why shitposting is such a huge deal on lemmy.
