That sucks, at least it's just a matter of being out of work and not a drug habit.
I do security work and 90% of my job involves getting crackhobos off private property before they start ripping wires out, absolutely sick of seeing people fent-shuffle around looking for copper, but it's always shitty seeing someone that was just genuinely out of luck.
Here's hoping things work out.

After two week, pack up and drive around the block then check in again. Realistically if you're waiting for seasonal work you could probably make an arrangement with the owner. How much are you paying?

Some general advice to offer. Not to sure how familiar you are with camping so you may already know but make sure you have an actual tarp under your tent to keep things dry and also, especially if your keeping electronics in there make sure they donโ€™t touch the walls of your tent. Even if it doesnโ€™t rain the morning dew can something soak anything touching the walls. And also, when you have to start sleeping in your car, try and find a solid battery powered fan some of those pads you put on windows so no one can see inside while youโ€™re asleep. And also, donโ€™t ever leave your car if someone starts tapping on it, messing with the door, or anything like that. Hope things work out for you.

Not sure where you live but I believe itโ€™s illegal to live/sleep in a storage unit so that would something youโ€™d probly need to consider but Iโ€™m sure it varies state to state.

Its for storage, not habitation. You allow people to live in storage units, one year down the road youโ€™ve got a shanty town slum on your hands and no storage units. Itโ€™s not much different than allowing your public parks and other spaces to become homeless slums.

Who knows? Maybe I'll finally be able to start living life and start a family at 45, though frankly it's irresponsible of me to think of starting a family due to my potential 45+ year old wife's biological clock rejecting it, and I would be an awful person if I had a relationship with a woman younger than me

At least it'll allow me more time and income to start my collection of... live service digital games.

being homeless anywhere it gets cold is hell on earth. unless you live somewhere with no winters or very mild winters being homeless will probably ruin your life and make you a paranoid schizo. it probably will regardless. most homeless people are insane addicts or literal braindead zombies and both are hardly even human, more wild animals. that's who you're going to be around and that's who people will think you are.

i've been told from people that were homeless in michigan and new york area it's the opposite if you have the money for the right gear/set up.
it's very feasible to heat up and stay warm in a hobo shelter, but it's not easy to cool down and stay cool.

also for anyone itt serious about hobo/vagabond life look into getting a second or third gen prius with a sine wave inverter. it's a legit hobo mobile you can make pretty comfy if you're 6'1 and under. i know someone who did it and at one point thought of doing it myself.

The main problem is that if you leave your shit alone its going to get stolen, its probably going to get stolen even if someones with it 24/7.

We've all seen the videos of the homeless camps and trailer RV camps I can guarantee you its not worth it, the solo van women from tiktok are probably raped at least 3 times a month.

you can aggressively save money for stuff like a home, travel, investments etc.

i view pretty much anyone that isn't doing extreme modes of penny pinching who make less than $80k/yr as a single adult in the united states as retards. i know you're broke no matter how much you consoom and try to appear stable.

Too late for you probably anon, but me, I'm only 31 and just spent the last 3 months completing algebra 1, geometry, algebra 2, college algebra, trigonmetry, and in a two days I'll have finished high school stats just leaving precalc on Khan academy. Then it will only take three months for me to finish all my gen eds on sophia learning which is a 3rd of my degree then I'm going to go to a go at your own pace online college and get my bachelor's in cs at 32. Then I'll get a job making 60k and finally move out then I just need to find my 25 year old libertarian gamer gf who has never slept with a non white who also makes good money and we can save up for our starter home and get the buns in the oven.

I'm also 31 but I have no schooling and I can't afford it. Could I just pick a field, torrent the textbooks for all the first year classes, grind them until I actually learn them, and do the same for second, third, and fourth year? And then by the time I can afford school, I could be completely overqualified and fast track it as much as possible?

I wanted to do translation and took major steps in schooling for that, but I was told that there likely wasn't much of a future for it at the rate AI is progressing, so I have to start over with nothing.

I used to work in an er for a few years and we definitely saw way more homeless get fucked up in the winter but like you said itโ€™s either because they junkies who have no functioning brain or actual heavily schizophrenic people without meds. It always sucked to see guys come in and just be pleasant people but had a real bad run of things that forced them into a hole be paired with the ones who did it all to themselves with drug use.

A lot of them quit because it fucking sucked and maintenance isn't a thing that most people want to deal with. Though yes a pimped out van would be better than a regular sedan most of the time. I subbed to a youtuber who did videos about making one and traveling from his home country (UK) to places around Europe and it was kinda cool. But he completely stopped doing those videos out of the blue for fucking beekeeping content. But this was in 2021-2022 so it was probably just one of the many Covid trends.

Total opposite if you have a car at least. Living in your car when it's cold is easy, you just buy a sleeping bag rated for your weather and get a bunch of blankets. It's impossible to live in your car if it's even slightly hot.

Try and find a good community college near you and talk to advisers there. They can give advice on what degree paths and classes they offer with a lot of them having trade training and degrees too. A lot of them also have online or night classes so people who work full time can still go back to school. The only shitty thing is, while a lot cheaper than a big college campus, itโ€™ll still put you back a couple thousand a semester in payment. They should also have financial advisers you can talk to that can give you your options on payment and offer advice

Nice, that whole area looks pretty nice this time of year.
Would move if it wasn't a pain in the ass to find work and get a green card, always wanted to live somewhere cold, nice, and not taxing you a 1/3rd of your pay at the lowest bracket.

My town has a college but it's all social justice, healthcare, and trades, there's nothing for a guy like me. I did a year and it was severely depressing, they were trying to explain what negative numbers and fractions, the skill check test was multiplication and division. I already had high school calculus under my belt, and that's when I realized that as long as I lived here, there were no options for me.

no they do not. 90% of them are addicts or too far gone to do anything other than shamble along like a corpse and smell like death and shit. why don't you let a homeless person into your house anon and give them some compassion, see how that fucking goes for you. plenty of people are genuinely just fucking awful and shouldn't be given handouts. that goes for the VAST majority of homeless people.

I've never felt this way about it.
I work, pay rent, and help out when I can for them, and in turn I pay half the rent the average person does and get meals made for me.
They know shit's fucked and it's not easy to get ahead right now, so they do what they can to help.

I've had it recommended to me but I'm a leaf and my goal is to get back to nippon where I lived for a bit. Life was actually great, I had plenty of opportunities, it's not like here with the nepotism wherever you apply and the huge cost of living. My life was getting on track, I looked forward to the future for the first time in years, I was making good impressions and doing well in interviews, but I had to come back since I couldn't get a work visa without a degree. Ever since my life has been at a standstill. I looked at Canadian military outposts for Japan but I couldn't find anything.

Vidya is getting harder to enjoy because of the lack of fulfilment in every other aspect of life.

>>713403838
I'm stuck living at home, and finding work has been rough. Like I said, I'd prefer to just grind out 16 hour days for the foreseeable future until I can save up enough to return to Japan to do a 2 year vocational school program which would make a work visa possible

People actually would give me interviews there, working part-time at a konbini or ramen place isn't hard. Nobody gives me the time of day here.

That's what everyone thought, but interviewers would tell me that they wouldn't be able to get me through without even at least an associate's degree. And the interviews would go well too, it's just that as soon as they would reach the degree part, it would basically end. But I'd also get "If you can get one, contact me and we can do this again and we'll get you set up". Crushing, but it is what it is, and I understand why it's a thing. There are other ways to stay, but I was told they were not recommended at all, and after 5 years, you are out. There's also a specialized workers visa for people with over 10 years of experience in a specific field, but I don't qualify for that.

As I was coming back, I had plans, I was going to work nights and build up whatever I could, maybe listen to Japanese audio when it's slow, study more and more, but everything immediately came grinding to a halt here. Got long lectures on all the things I was stupid for expecting to be able to do, I have no options, don't expect to go back, and also "It's better here anyway".

I would donate a large sum of money to have these useless faggots shipped to some island like a leper colony. 99.8% of all homeless people are either druggies or alcoholics and if you're actually homeless, there's millions of dollars in resources to get you back to being an actual member of society

I see. You have the yellow fever. You sounded like your future was bleak but at least you have a cool goal to work towards to since Japan is one of the best countries in the world.
I looked up Canada bases in Japan and it seems that they operate from the US bases. You should ask your nearest recruitment office if being stationed in Japan is realistic but honestly you wouldn't have a lot of freedom to enjoy it, plus thwre seems to be tension between the local Okinawans and American bases. Just stick to your plan of saving up and move there to join the school program. How much do you need?

It depends on the school. A Japanese vocational school would be the fastest route at 2 years, and rates would be around $10k USD based on one my teacher at the time was showing me related to IT, which I believe was just one year. It's not that bad, and because I did great in language school (perfect attendance, reached N2 in a year), I can get up to a 50% discount depending on the vocational school. I just hope that benefit still applies. But I've been looking for work since getting home over a year ago, and the fish have just not been biting. The most luck I had was a three stage interview to work two shifts a week at a gym which didn't work out, and an offer to work at a restaurant way out of town which I can't reliably reach, I don't even have a vehicle anymore and the bus doesn't go there. Currently looking into whatever hard labor is being offered, tried looking into audio transcription too, but it pays very little.

you literally just throw it all in a dumpster. I'm down to two carry on bags and one pelican roller case. That collection of stuff that just sits around only weighs you down.

A bit sad to see all these photos I have of my family just end up in the trash but I guess it'll happen eventually.

Awful advice and fucking kill yourself. Properties like that will massively jack up rent anyways.

If it cant fit into the back of a car just toss it or sell it. If you plan on going homeless and I do mean plan theres a lot of things you realize are just absolutely worthless aside from your phone.

A healthy love feels like you have everything figured out and you are content with how the days are passing because at the end of the day that person is there.

An unhealthy love feels uncertain and you are constantly wondering what the FUCK they are doing.

I know that probably isn't your set up, but that is a massive fucking tent. That shit must be expensive. It even has a second room attached to it. I know you can get tents with multiple rooms that are huge, but they're several hundred dollars. That one might be cheaper, but still...it has a ton of space.

I hate camping so I've never actually camped in a decent tent. The 2-3 times I've slept in a tent was a living hell. It was hot and cramped. I think they squeezed like four of us into a tent that was only designed to hold three people at best. Camping in the summertime is retarded anyway. The best time is to go in the fall, or at least when it gets cooler outside. I think it's stupid to be like "Hell yeah, let's go camp in 98-degree weather with a low of 76 with 95% humidity!" I also assume location is a factor. Some states/areas have a better climate for camping.

Like getting high and thinking the world finally makes sense, except you're sober and it's just from looking at someone smile. Then one day they don't smile at you the same way and it's like someone took that high, laced it with fentanyl, and now you're OD'ing alone in your car at 2am listening to their favorite playlist.
10/10 would do it again.

I always camped in or around mountains when I was a kid so it was always cold in the summer time, usually in the mornings and at night. Also those multi room tents were pretty commonly used. They were a bitch to set up though compared to those normal 1 room tents and the prices for them always seemed overpriced to me.

I wouldn't call it love, but oneitis/limerence is straight up a drug addiction. Your brain produces oxytocin in response to someone, and you can't stop thinking about them. When they're not around, all you can do is wish they were, your brain is addicted to the high. And when it's not reciprocated, you're left feeling crushed by everything like you're experiencing the worst depression. The best thing is to gtfo and go through the withdrawals, because otherwise that person will have way too much control over how you feel but won't care about you enough to treat those feelings delicately, and you'll just feel intense pain.

She was basically skinnyfat. I deleted like all of our shit together so I cant really show you unfortunately.

But I liked her a lot. She was cute and I suuuuuper fucking regret that dumb garbage I did to get rid of her. At the same time though, she hit me up like last year and I invited her out where I was planning to blame it on my dad dying and she ghosted me after I asked her where she was so, eh. Gotta get over it.

>Sold, trashed or gave away literally everything I owned except for laptop, phone, charger for both, backpack, 3 sets of clothes, a mattress with sheets, a blanket, toolbox and my van
>Have been living in my van since

I recently just gave up on ever finding a stable job and have been trying to turn my van into my new permanent home, have been going surprisingly good so far as I managed to get some free materials from a vendor who were just going to trash it. I made a bed frame, a small table, insulated the entire van with spray foam/made interior walls and I made some shelves so that I can store more stuff and keep the floors free.

I've been doing some odd work around the town I camp out near, it's enough to feed me, pay for the phone bill, pay for gas, pay for the gym membership (where I shit, shower and wash my clothes) and save up for stuff. I'm currently looking into solar just so that I don't have to rotate between campsites just to leech some electricity every other day.

To keep it vidya related, I've been playing mostly indie and emulated stuff, my laptop was pretty beefy when I bought it so I can play pretty much anything I want (on the lowest settings) but I try to limit it to only running easy stuff to save on electricity. I just started BoF4 yesterday as I've seen some anons suck its dick on /vr/ before
