any of yall ever been homeless?

[-TiM C-]

i was in hayward today watchin a dope fein walk around pickin random shit off the ground and i was thinkin damn it must be so fuckin hard to be homeless. especially in this heat.

dude by the oakland coliseum has the right idea "i bet you can't hit me with a quarter" lol i drive by and have to lock my windows so my passengers dont go throwing quarters at dude. i dont know man i jst cant condone that. but i bet he gets macked by at least $2 in quarters a day

i got to thinkin like how would i survive if i was homless

up in chico they got bums that make a full time job out of hustlilng cans

dudes have trucks and shit

those guys get $$$$$$

i would steal copper pipes from construction sites or try at least

you cant cash in on certain metals unless you got a license in certain parts.

if i was homeless, i would resort to old connects an plugs, get put on and ball out of control. no job=no house=desperate measures=that not give a fuck attitude

fuck scanless shit, i'll go out like phonebooth

Honestly, I don't think I'd be able to do it.

My parents have always done what they've needed to keep me and my younger sister (And my older half brother and sister, when needed) under a roof, and getting food, so thank god for them.

The only excuse for being broke is being jail

I look at a lot of bums who spend their whole day asking for money when they're able to walk talk and do so much. I mean go and rob someone shieeeeet

^ I work for mines, I know people who've gone belly broke because they've lost their jobs but there is always work out there you just have to motivate yourself to find it.

If that was directed towards me, are you seriously mad that I have good parents that aren't flaky, and doing a good job at raising their kids? It's not like I've gotten everything I want. They do what they gotta do for us to get by, and to keep a roof over our heads, and keep food on the table.

Word, my bad then.

 

[Nuttkase]

No.

I'm too good with saving my money for that to happen. I'm not going to say never because shit happens in life sometimes but the odds of it ever getting to that are very slim.

slightly.

when i was new to the whole housing thing, my rent went up 50 bucks. and at the time i was just fucking tired of paying 920 a month for such a shitty spot, which was actually a in-law. (a seperate apartment added on to a house with its own entrance)

I did something really stupid, I put my last month in with my landlord and started looking for a place. Now i thought i ws going to be able to find a place in a month, and that proved to be harder than shit. (no one wanted to trust a black kid with dreads)

so come the end of the month i start packing my shit. i dont have a place, so i end up putting everything in storage besides one suitcase. i didnt have a car.

inbetween this, my job tried to demote me so i walked out (stupid move #2) but i didnt wanna take a 2 dollar paycut. I started selling drugs on market and haight and the TL for a while, and i actually did pretty well. I was boncing house to house, apt to apt, staying with people for like 2 weeks and just pitching in on groceries or drinks or whatever.got into a fight w dude, got kicked out.

i prolly spent a week completely homeless, i went to the colleges alot and posted up in the library and read shit.filled out alot of applications, then id hustle a little bit, stay in a motel or stay with a friend. eventualy i left sf cuz i couldnt find a place to stay.

the day i left SF and as soon as i was in san diego again, pearls art store on market called me back and told me i had gotten the job.

but i was already gone so i just put the whole shit behind me and moved on.

it was not a fun part in life, it was really stressful not knowing where i was gonna stay or not having a warm place to go to and sleep, but it taught me how to hustle to survive. not for a little money, but for survival.

i never slept in the street though. i knew squatters with places, if not old roomates, college friends, homies through the art/music world..alot of people helped me out but in reality it was just time for me to leave sf. so i quit college and bounced with my last money to get out of there.

the only negative aspect was that time went slower than ever.
