What to do if you suddenly find yourself homeless

FOOD

Find your nearest food bank or mission, for food

grocery stores with free samples, bakeries + stores with day-old bread

different fast food outlets have cheaper food and will generally let you hang out for a while.

some dollar stores carry food like cans of beans or fruit

SHELTER

Sleeping at beaches during the day is a good way to avoid suspicion and harassment

sleep with your bag strapped to you, so someone can’t steal it

Some churches offer short term residence

Find your nearest homeless shelter

Look for places that are open to the public

A large dumpster near a wall can often be moved so that flipping up the lids creates an angled shelter to stay dry

HYGIENE

A membership to the YMCA is usually only 10$, which has a shower, and sometimes laundry machines and lockers.

Public libraries have bathrooms you can use

Dollar stores carry low-end soaps and deodorant etc.

Wet wipes are all purpose and a life saver

Local beaches, go for a quick swim

Some truck stops have showers you can pay for

Staying clean is the best way to prevent disease, and potentially get a job to get back on your feet

Pack 7 pairs of socks/undies, 2 outfits, and one hooded rain jacket

OTHER

first aid kit

 sunscreen

 a travel alarm clock or watch

 mylar emergency blanket

 a backpack is a must

 downgrade your cellphone to a pay as you go with top-up cards

 sleeping bag

 travel kit of toothbrush, hair brush/comb, mirror

 swiss army knife

 can opener

im feeling REALLY wolflike. it almost hurts?? i watched white fang again today and i like im a wolfdog but im still not labelling anything. also... as per usual, my connection to austroraptors is waning, like any label i use

:(((

white fang is so me. i also have a small list of 'therian' movies/shows i need to watch (wolf's rain, wolfblood i think, wolfwalkers... most of them are about wolves... there are more i just cannot think and im feeling SO wolf rn.)

[shiloh-barks]

starting to think my identity just sort of fluctuates a fair bit bc today ive just been feeling wolf wolf wolf canine dog wolf dog dog wolfdog woof sort of thing.

[shiloh-barks]

questioning wolf therian AND YES

Do any other wolf therians get that thing where when you're lonely you have the urge to howl cuz you have to find where your friends are or is that just a me thing

[shiloh-barks]

that one time my friends thought i got kidnapped?? by my own dad, too. 😭😭 i was completely unaware of this

[shiloh-barks]

so heres the CURRENT rundown. I THINK i am an austroraptor therian. thats the main bit. everything else- dragon, shiloh and whatever else ive said was wrong. im keeping my silly username, because i think its cute. also, i think wolf. wolf might be a thing. uhhh but not as much as austro. austros very real i think...

[shiloh-barks]

idk if this works to add tags. do i care? not really. i just like having all my thoughts here, for me.

okayy... im getting somewhere. ive been reading about some dinosaurs because this is really what i think i might be. i already had suspicions on some, but what i ended up on is sort of a curveball.

my original suspicions were:

dakotaraptor (definitely not my first one, but it was there)

some sort of ceratopsian

a number of hadrosaurs (namely parasaurolophus, but i certainly looked at others)

and spinosaurus???

well, it was none of those. it was similar to two of those, though! (im still not certain). in ways, the dinosaur i ended up landing on as probably being a theriotype is austroraptor (similar to spino and dakota, for those unsure).

i had my eyes on austroraptor, but i wasnt sure if it was just because i really like it or what. however, i could make PAGES of traits that have led me to this. everything that i thought about my dragon kintype (which i dont think was right at all...) was actually just... austroraptor 😭😭. long, slim snout - austro. diet of fish (vivid memory of eating a large fish) - austro. feathers and fuzz - austro. you see the pattern? theres more, but i wont.

forgot to tag this. lmfao
