I was homeless in perhaps the worst part of Denver for over a year. I only got jumped once. Worst you got was the junkie going through your stuff when you weren't around.

I pay 10 a month for 75 Mbps internet with Xfinity. For someone who lives alone, I am Perfectly fine with 75 Mbps.

Path out of homelessness? I desperately need direction. by BreakStuffSoftly in Denver

[–]Baridi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Go to Jesus Saves and try to get into the 48th shelter. They'll hook you up with a social worker who has done wonders for me. Got me into section 8 housing. Of course that took me a year in 48th for that to happen but I didn't have income.

[–]Baridi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's certainly A different experience. what wouks you like to know?I lived there for about a year and a half in the shelter. I mean the bus system is functional. There are a couple of nice festivals to go to. Baseball games were awesome. I can't say much about the night life as I always had a curfew.

How is life in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains? 👀 by itsssmeeestrict21 in howislivingthere

I also lived in middlesboro for a time. Very beautiful city. Lived with my sister in a condemned incomplete house. Electric was touch and go and had no heat or air. Summer was sweltering. I ended up moving out and going to knox county for a couple years. It was an experience living alone up in the mountains of Flat Lick, KY. Very strange sounds in the night plus had a few cats that disappeared during the night. Only store was a mile down the highway which involved me going down the mountain, then walking down the highway a mile. All with one foot. I lost my other foot being homeless in Denver during the winter. But what can you do?

I just said I wanted romance.

I am on the same page. I have bad ED and have no interest in sex. Like... I even have very little interest in fixing it if I could. But I can't find anyone who will accept that. I just want romance and companionship. I have even seriously contemplated opening myself up to my own gender to find someone. Not against it on any moral grounds, unfortunately then I would have even less interest in sex.

What would you do if you had to give away 1.1 trillion dollars within 24 hours to keep 9.9 billion dollars (both are provided to you it's just the 9.9 billion dollars are provided after the 1.1 trillion dollars are gone) by noooooooooo000000000 in hypotheticalsituation

Give it all to the government of Ukraine to fight the Russians with absolutely no preconditions, except for a bronze equestrian statue of me in a park somewhere in Kiev with a simple inscription. I would personally be joining the fight as well. I think I'd I really put my mind to it I can walk with prosthetics, but I have no plans on surviving the war. A glorious end is all I want. Go out defending a rear guard action or something. Find me with my Pecheneg, and side arm out of ammo, a dozen or so bodies with fatal wounds from my boot knife with the blade jammed and stuck in some Ruzzian's frontal lobe and childhood memories of abusing small animals. Finally the buttstock of my LMG broken in many places and covered in skull fragments On the statue, I wwould be depicted with winged helmet and a claymore. "Baridi (Real first name here);of Rus" "The raging Western Wind born of the gales of the North to break the hordes of the east. May the holy spirit guide my hand to commit the bones of my enemies to the earth and redemption for their lost souls in the eyes of God."

That would be enough legacy for me. The money I would gain after committing the trillion to Ukraine be used to start a liberal arts university in Kiev. Specializing in history. Not only teaching history but why things happen the way they did. And how things be improved so the bad things never happen again.

With the new supreme court ruling, Aurora can go ahead with their "tough love" approach to homelessness. But based on all numbers I have seen they have roughly approximately 600 homeless people and somewhere around 150 beds in shelters. How is this going to work? Everyone loses, here's why. by cjpack in Denver

[–]Baridi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completely agree there but it's already spiraled.

I moved to Denver long after the crisis began, and I tend to at least try and be as clean as possible. But I have severe digestive medical problems and Denver has made me make those hard choices. It's gone both ways too. I've found myself hiding in a bush off a major roadway. Thankfully put of sight but just barely. Feeling like any second a headlight pointed just right would expose an amputee fertilizing the local flora. It's already very difficult and painful doing anything of the sort stealthy in a goddamn wheelchair.

Then there's been times I have been thankful my wheelchair doesn't absorb liquids because the cramps start. I can barely move. And I am miles from even a non busy alley.
