#DSHS

[antisolanum]

I may be on hold with a government agency for entirely too long, making me want to end all life on earth, but I'm also smoking a swisher sweet and drinking diet coke and playing Super Mario 64 DS on my hacked 3DS... so I guess life could be worse. We all get to live another day.

Wednesday

Had WELD orientation today. As opposed to the pre-orientation that was on Monday. Pretty interesting stuff, hearing mixed reviews from people who have done a lot of the WELD jobs previously though. I guess the recycling jobs and such it's pretty typical that people from WELD get the shit tier of it and WELD gets a kickback as part of their contract with the company. Have no idea if it is true or not but have heard it from multiple people at the halfway house that worked with or even still work with WELD. The WeldWorks program seems to be mostly heavy physical labor jobs but they are offering a flagger course once a month and say they do have limited office and clerical openings as well so I guess I'll still be trying to find out about those.

The social worker on staff I was told to talk to as he "specializes in what we do and don't qualify for in halfway house" had no idea whatsoever what we do and don't qualify for. He referred me to a possible doctors office that he thinks will treat me regardless of whether they are supposed to or not and told me I should go to DSHS to see what I qualify for...

Still pretty much in total limbo on what I can and can't do.

DSHS WA State actively discriminates against Seniors and the Disabled.

How you might ask? They use artificial financial rules that do not represent real world living by anybody in the immediate environment that the people they're supposed to be helping are in. I call it Financial Tyranny.

In my opinion the financial restrictions that they impose are about preventing people from getting help. The financial rules are so artificial that there is nobody anywhere in the real world that lives in the manner they claim is "normal," not one person anywhere!

There is no real help for anybody in Snohomish County Washington! Every single thing they offer on 211 has a barrier designed to keep you from being able to get the help.

If you live in a vehicle and use fuel to stay warm; TOO BAD FOR YOU! You should have bought food with that money instead!

Most seniors and disabled have income. They just don't have enough income to rent a place to live. So they use their income to keep a car going.

Some Senior and Disabled people are actually sleeping on the ground. I met two women this week both of them sleep outside, one is 62 the other 74. The 62 year old was recently raped. She deals with Verdant South County Health, they told her she has to go find her own Counselor. Yes, a severally traumatized woman living outdoors and recently raped should try to find her own counselor! That's really helpful!

Is there anybody left out there that doesn't understand what's really going on in the US today? The only agenda this country has is to steal all the money they can get from you. And when you need help there isn't anything for you! Other Countries, and Black Budget agendas get all the money!

For you people who are not aware, 60% of homeless people work, they have jobs, so if "get a job" was the answer, then they wouldn't be homeless.

What a GREAT COUNTRY this is, if constant and forever War Mongering is your thing!

Keep an eye on WA State Government. BIG changes are coming!

Our Story Homeless 2023

Missy Mischievious & Boo Boo, and I started our homeless adventure in Washington State, on New Years Eve 2022.

I'm a Senior single woman. The kitties are Missy Mischievious age 3, and Boo Boo age 18+.

I'm adjusting to this slowly. I was homeless for 6 years before. I struggled with medical issues, and I finally got myself off the street and back to work only to lose two jobs during COVID.

Boo Boo, my older girl, is adjusting. , fastest of us. Missy Mischievous is not doing as well. She hates the sound of the rain. Both of them came to me in horrible shape needing a home.

We were doing OK before Covid happened. Now we are homeless as a result of sanctioned criminal enterprises in my city.

Our Mobile Home was stolen through Nefarious Means, and Fancy Legal Shenanigans

The girls would like hand warmers in their beds at night to help keep them warm, and so does Mom. We need fuel to keep moving and stay warm. We do a lot of Laundry, anything helps. Mom needs coffee to keep going.

Both cats need food, and hand warmers all Winter.

Any help would be appreciated!

If you go with the halfas not needing o breathe or have their hearts pumping 24/7 idea:

Danny in the tv show is the exact type of person that would play dead in order to prank Dash and you can not change my mind.

I don't mean pretending to be nonresponsive, I mean full on flopping to the floor and stopping his heart and breathing when Dash is in the middle of beating him up in some secluded area of the school. Let Dash believe he just killed Danny only to have Danny show up like nothing happened the next day.

I love them so much!

In the US, most rescues don't require that the cat goes outside, but almost every cat rescue I've ever seen supports TNR/"""community cats""". They use their revenue to lobby (aka bribe politicians) for laws like the one they're currently attempting in California: to exempt cats from animal abandonment laws. As someone who works in bird conservation I absolutely don't want my donations or adoption fees supporting that sort of nonsense, but I've never encountered a rescue that DOESN'T support it, which is immensely frustrating.

Exempting cats from animal abandonment laws seems pretty counterintuitive…. Don’t those rescues want cats to be in loving homes? Like even if TNR was helpful, surely they realize living in a home is better than roughing it on the streets? What a bizarre point of view.

It does seem to be the same here in Canada though, with rescues and TNR programs being connected like that. I wouldn’t want my money to fund programs like that either, especially if they’re lobbying for changes in laws like that. It doesn’t seem to benefit anyone— bird, cat, human, or otherwise.

Please forgive me if this is a question you're tired of hearing 😅 I am not much in the cat community so I don't know if this is an exhausted point. I was just wondering if the stereotype of Siamese cats being super vocal is true?

Yes. Live in fear. The first 18 months of Zuko's time with us was full of yells and suffering. You can hear it outside your house, they will outlast you, the only answer is to reach a compromise with a cat. If you are not prepared to be held hostage by a cat, DNI
