I've raised two boys. So this is not a boys will be boys thing. Those three younger teens should have been arrested as well. This is not something you just get grounded for.

#Graffiti of Jan Wiesław Polkowski aka Czarny Roman (1950 - 2017) - #homeless who became an element of #urbanfolklore.

He told passers-by that he was immortal and "the awareness of the immortality of murder". Also predicted the dates of death of people he met in cafes.

One of the scariest moments of my life was when I fled #boise #idaho to #portland #oregon with nothing.

I was #homeless and desperate, and there was nothing left for me there but bad memories, and very few resources for someone poor.

I had exhausted all my options, and I was just trying not to die.

Still recovering from #opioids I got on a Greyhound to a shelter I had lined up in advance, and stepped from a desert into rain.

All that effort and fear just to have a bed.

For the eighth year, pastor Tom Barber will go 24 hours without food, sleep or shelter as a way to advocate for the #Lincoln #homeless population. https://www.1011now.com/video/2025/06/27/8th-annual-gimme-shelter-event-underway-lincoln/?fbclid=IwY2xjawLMLC1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBicmlkETFuWHhQNDJRN05OMEVXWjU5AR6QD83LiRHuxLqso5N5J6fH6mLbicGg3qse443um_QGujpBpC-UvgKuT0WHEg_aem_HudyF3hPk1qeUylPMVFqkg #Nebraska

The Supreme Court ruled that banning camping for homeless people did not constitute cruel and unusual punishment. In the year since, California’s cities and its homeless population have navigated a new legal landscape. #homeless #supremeCourt #camping

Does anyone have any ideas on where and how else we can get mutual aid while we are at a financial impasse?

We are in serious need of $900 to stabilise our situation for this week. This includes stemming the flow of fees for overdrafts and credit card over limit usage for the crime of existing and needing to buy food in a situation of inflated prices and no stable employment.

You know what I just realized about the #Army giving commissions to a bunch of #tech ceos?

America already has a HUGE issue with getting #veterans their benefits. Now these dweeb will cherry pick the few good benefits openly available and then use their infinite wealth to jump the line everywhere else.

They get to use the illusion of valor ("I was in the army 🪖🤓")

If their so fucking smart then fix this shit so every vet can see a doctor Next Day, also maybe no #homeless vets?

"By late spring 2021, the city committed to a new strategy that then-Mayor Ted Wheeler said would “reprioritize public health and safety among homeless Portlanders,” ultimately allocating $1.3 billion by the end of 2024.

But although the city spent roughly $200,000 per homeless resident throughout that time, deaths of homeless people recorded in the county quadrupled, climbing from 113 in 2019 to more than 450 in 2023, according to the most recent data from the Multnomah County Health Department. The rise in deaths far outpaces the growth in the homeless population, which was recorded at 6,300 by a 2023 county census, a number most agree is an undercount. The county began including newly available state death records in its 2022 report, which added about 60 deaths to the yearly tolls.

Homeless residents of Multnomah County now die at a higher rate than in any major West Coast county with available homeless mortality data: more than twice the rate of those in Los Angeles County and the Washington state county containing Seattle. Almost all the homeless population in Multnomah County lives within Portland city limits."
