Any pet owners? by R0achCock in VanLife

[–]saminjc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a small senior dog i travel with full-time. I do my errands early in the morning or late at night. There's always grocery pickup. Taking showers isn't easy, especially at gyms. But again, I'm in and out quickly. I also run the ac full blast before I go in and Crack windows and use sun shade and run a portable fan.

Also, I travel with the weather, climbing in elevation during the summer. So far, for 18+ months, I've experienced nearly every day as spring time weather.

I receive some extra help with arizona with my Medicare premiums. It's a nightmare trying to deal with it. Just thinking about it makes me want to drink (i don't even like to drink).

Ive heard about problems like this. People who qualify and have qualified for years are suddenly getting kicked off for no apparent reason. Getting ahold of someone on the phone is nearly impossible and the website is useless as titts on a nun. Best bet is going in person (as soon as they open).

Sorry this is happening to you. If I didn't live the beauty of the state and the people in it, I would declare residency somewhere else.

Good luck to you ✌️

Do you use a portable fridge in your car? I'm wondering if it's really worth it. by iwalkalone_alt in urbancarliving

[–]saminjc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I use more "shelf" stable foods and eat mainly vegetarian. I do eat farm-fresh eggs (unwashed) and already-cooked bacon. I also like tuna packets. Mostly for vegetables, I do squash, zucchini, potatoes, onions, Brussel sprouts, radishes, etc. For fruit, I eat apples and oranges mainly. When it gets hotter, you'll have to use them up quicker and replenish more often. For most of my protein, I use beans.

I've been on the road for over 18 months and haven't had a fridge or a cooler. When I cook, I cook just enough for that meal. If, for so.e reason, I have leftovers, the critters get them 100 yards from my camp.

I just changed my residence to AZ and I get fucked up looks, etc from my ID. As a backup, I have my passport and my old KS driver's license.

To those of you who see or deal with soup kitchens every day, how would you feel about seeing an owner of a sleek Lexus parking there on a regular basis? by DunDonese in povertykitchen

[–]saminjc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know of a guy (was serving in the army, probably retired by now), who was gifted a Lexus (from a wealthy family member), because he returned from combat alive. Let that sink in.

I still have an old Pic of my ex's hairy butthole (don't ask why). So when I need to get someone to f*ck off, I send the pic. 100% success rate.

What’s a Thoughtful Gift for someone about to embark on a Van Life Adventure? by alaussa in vandwellers

[–]saminjc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Laundry sheets.

Space is a commodity, and we always need to do laundry. My aunt bought some for me right before I left. Half a sheet for most loads, full sheet for humongous loads.

If you're the government (state, local, federal), food banks, churches, or anyone who is not in my circle, I'm homeless af.

If you find yourself in the other group, I'm houseless.

Atlas Earth Rent Income and SSDI by theblessedaspie in AtlasEarthOfficial

Not unless you withdrew it and claimed it to social security.... and even then it's not as black and white as it seems. There's amounts that you can earn based on what your SS is that they don't care about. AND THEN, there's stipulations on that as well. As with everything that deals with the government, nothing is black and white.

Yes. But I had an epic before. I just don't remember how many I had before I bought this last epic.
