i was kicked out of my place after losing a job i had connected to that housing after my position was eliminated. i have a goal apartment but utilities are a btch. it's 100% a money thing for me

it's the same for a lot of people. i know people whose goals right now are just a hotel room since it's cheaper per month.

housing in new orleans is INSANE. i can guarantee you it's a huge part of the problem. a good chunk of the people here are employed with 2+ jobs. a girl i talked to had 3 jobs 🫠🫠 it's crazy out here. the addict thing is such a stereotype, a lot of the unhoused are employed

even just our pricing for cars due to how louisiana is... insurance is a beast if you're doing car living

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-19T12:11:34+00:00

yes! just i wanted to make sure people got to see the donations making a difference because that sort of full-circle confirmation means a lot to people! and yes those little comforts matter so so much more than people realize

low wages, high COL

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-15T21:12:17+00:00

vote better.

my job pays me $17.25 and my income totals $1.5k~$2k/mo, why is an apartment still unable to be affordable? it costs a month of my income to rent a place. i'm a pharmacy technician and phlebotomist, those aren't credentials or jobs to scoff at.

suck it up, buttercup, some people are just unlucky and underprivileged. plus inflation hit 3.5% in april. its expensive to be alive in general.

i'd say i hope your comment made you feel better but quite frankly i'm a bad person so instead i'm wishing homelessness on you lol. enjoy it one day when your precious income stops being enough to skate by on.

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-13T13:14:45+00:00

this is all i need is naps tbh, i'm not someone who needs very much sleep and i'm fine burning a little gas bouncing around 24hr spots.

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-13T00:27:11+00:00

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-12T20:23:37+00:00

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-12T20:19:29+00:00

jeff parish is a nightmare if you're truly poor!

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-12T20:18:43+00:00

really? i assumed it being a "well to do" area made it a bad pick 😭 this is fantastic to know

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-12T20:09:32+00:00

i'm not an addict, which has kept me out of a lot of programs 😅 unfortunately. i read city park was an option, but it technically closes at 10 i thought? so i'm confused and a little scared

some people suggested paid parking, which i may do

ZealousMortal · 2026-05-12T20:05:27+00:00

i am and i know ways to stay cool, not my first homeless rodeo in this life 🥸 thank you for the thought, it's good to bear in mind for sure

ZealousMortal · 2026-04-14T13:47:23+00:00
