I guess I feel like talking about my life, and I guess this is a better place to do it than other places. So.

I recently fled from emotionally abusive family after I physically retaliated to emotional abuse. What I did was completely unacceptable, and that's part of the reason I left.

Since then I've been staying with a friend I met on Twitter; so Twitter isn't all bad. They've let me stay rent free in the spare room of their house.

I got a job at a grocery store, where they don't give me quite enough hours and the pay is minimum wage, so I'm basically cutting even on my food costs.

After I left my old home, I drifted from places for a little over a month, racking up credit card debt to pay for food. So barely making it by on food now isn't helping me pay off that debt.

I don't know why I'm talking about this; I'm not trying to ask for help, but also I wish I had help?

I wish government aid, disability, food stamps were an option. The latter doesn't seem to be because of my living conditions, but I'd be way to afraid to get a place of my own and then have my food stamps denied or just have them take too long to be approved. It's not a risk worth taking.

So I'm kind of stuck here for now until I figure out... something.

Sigh.

@The_T lie and say you're homeless
@bleak lmao if you think cities care about homeless people
@The_T it's what I did, am currently doing
@bleak I'm really not following, sorry.
@The_T I am on food stamps and I got them by lying and saying I am homeless
@bleak there's too much of a paper trail for them to prove I'm not homeless. Still, I'm not going to lie: I think you are a bad person.
@The_T do crime
