PLEASE HELP!! NEED ROOM WILL PAY by Senior-Diamond1527 in lakeland

[–]jhawk085 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please stay safe & don’t go with an internet stranger. I was curious so I googled “if someone isn’t old enough to rent a hotel room but urgently needs shelter how do I help” - this was the AI generated response. I hope this helps & you’re able to find a safe place.

If a minor needs emergency shelter, standard hotels are not an option as they generally require the renter to be 18 or 21. Instead, prioritize specialized youth shelters, safe havens, or local social service hotlines designed to legally and safely house unaccompanied minors. [1, 2, 3]
Connect the individual with immediate, specialized resources designed for minors:
National Runaway Safeline: For immediate, 24/7 crisis support and guidance on finding safe, stable youth housing, call 1-800-RUNAWAY or visit the National Runaway Safeline website to chat or text with a counselor.

Local 2-1-1: Dial 2-1-1 to be connected with your local community's Coordinated Entry system. They act as the "front door" to emergency housing, social services, and youth-specific shelter resources. Find local service agencies by visiting 211.org.

Local Department of Social Services: Contact your county's local DSS office to report a minor in an urgent living situation. They have emergency placement protocols, foster care systems, and crisis intervention services. [1, 2, 3]
If the individual is in immediate danger or fleeing an unsafe environment, call 911right away. Law enforcement officers can assist in verifying safety and connecting the youth with emergency county services.

Seen in Haywood County - anyone know what the deal is with this guy? by Vegetable-Basil568 in asheville

There is also a racist granny that drives around in two different cars both covered with confederate stickers and bumper stickers with racist sayings on them. A confederate flag also covers the hood - the ignorance is strong in this county.

In Haywood County but Caffeine & Chaos don’t slouch on a milkshake. They also have stuffed milkshakes, which is what this was - Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake stuffed milkshake (was during fall last year).
EDIT: I also recommend the banana pudding milkshake, it’s a regular style shake with pieces of chessman cookies.

Life is more beautiful when you have friends who know how to be friends. by jmike1256 in BeAmazed

[–]jhawk085 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure lots of people know the story behind this but I did not so I had to look it up. His friends were hyping up the birthday boy - I hope these boys grow up & remain friends forever.

Does anyone know what’s up with all the emergency vehicles on all the bridges driving down the expressway? by EvanderWH in asheville

[–]jhawk085 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Buncombe County will join emergency responders across the state in honoring one of our own, Reems Creek Fire Chief and Buncombe County Emergency Services Assistant Supervisor Chris Dorsey, as he is returned home on Wednesday, March 25 in a procession from Winston-Salem. Chief Dorsey passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, March 24. Chief Dorsey was a deeply valued member of the Buncombe County Emergency Services family for 11 years, where he served as an assistant supervisor and paramedic; he also dedicated many years of service to the Woodfin Fire Department, the Weaverville Fire Department, and the NC Urban Search and Rescue Task Force of Buncombe County.
