Have you ever actually been street homeless in the United States? 

As I said to someone else, there is a reason why homeless people in the US  always *try* to build  little shantytown situations until the cops kick them out. Because yeah, a mattress in a little tent/shack is fucking better than living on a bench outside a mall in the middle of January. 


I remember being so freezing cold and sitting on a bench   bawling when I got out of jail, because I wanted to go back so badly. I was seriously considering robbing someone because either way it would get me a place to sleep, whether it was a jail cell or a hotel I didn't care. And  if you try to get a job, better be off by 4pm because every shelter will be full.

How'd you get out of that?
