Officially homeless. Couch surfing courtesy of some good friends of mine but that can't last forever. I'm stuck with a couple of hefty bills too, that in spite of everything I can't escape. If you can *spare* literally anything, please help.

#Oregon – #Eugene will hold vigil Sunday for #Homeless Persons’ Memorial Day
https://www.opb.org/article/2025/12/20/eugene-to-hold-vigil-sunday-for-homeless-persons-memorial-day/
> Eugene is holding a candlelight vigil Sunday evening in honor of homeless residents who have died this year.
"the initiative would give police power to arrest people who fall asleep in public"
So there's a fucked up ballot initiative coming that wants to make existing at all as a homeless person a jail-able offense.
It's sponsored by non-other than the Seattle police union (aka SPOG) and is a power grab to give useless cops an easy way to pack prisons.
Don't sign this bullshit initiative.

Well, shit. I'm in a bit of a bind. Life has not been kind since dad's passing, and I'm beyond broke.
And just to give the knife a good twist I'm being made homeless. I have to find a new place to live.
If you can *spare* literally anything, please help. I don't want to end up on the streets.
