'determined' is driving around to share hot meals

'dedicated' is driving around, at night, in rainy weather, w/poor visibility, to search for hungry people, for *at least 4 hours* b/c you can't find people to feed

EVEN DURING THE WINTER HOLIDAYS PEOPLE ARE GETTING SWEPT! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!
Monday night our somewhat soggy but determined volunteers made & shared 105 servings beef ravioli, fruit slices, water, & harm reduction supplies w/our unhoused neighbors!

I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to talk to unhoused people. Interact with them like the community members that they are. Not everyone has the means to offer material support, but this is something everyone can do:
Say hello. Strike up a conversation. Introduce yourself, hear someone's
our unhoused neighbors needs are: hot meals, clean water, kindness, harm reduction supplies, empathy, compassion, dignity, to be asked what their needs are, to be treated as human beings, to not be cruelly forced to move all of their possessions when they have nowhere to go that isn't cold & rainy

@feedthestreets.bsky.social did not realize y'all were on bluesky (and following me!) but I'm so glad to you!!!

I encourage all of my followers to check them out and support them. They prepare and distribute lots of hot meals for Portland's unhoused community and are a vital resource.

Community is really just neighbors helping neighbors, which is the best reason to have neighbors. Here's just a few of the many meals we cooked for our unhoused neighbors this year!

today: wake up alive... again; immediately regret it; somehow manage a few hours of keeping my brain distracted enough to forget how depressed i am; something happens, reminds me that everything sucks; feel awful again; hope sleep will reset my mood

tomorrow?: wake up alive... again?

maybe it wouldn't have taken them 3 years if they weren't a PPB front for pro-police propaganda

folks are expected to give the PPB info like names/addresses & trust that cops will show up w/food?

as if the PPB would NEVER find excuses to harass, intimidate, arrest, or murder marginalized people
It’s taken three years for the non-profit Sunshine Division to find a new home but they are finally beginning renovations to its new headquarters near downtown Portland.

the fact that there are policies in place to ensure that unhoused people are treated as less than human is a total condemnation of our society

This family could use some help for the holidays! And we all know the classic holiday sentiment that has definitely been around forever: Ti's the season, indeed, to help families in need!

(don't be like that Scrooge guy, he sucks)

Please donate/share if you can!

Having spent all day (almost exactly 12 hours, as of writing this) helping someone clear out their camp & store it in our backyard so it won't get stolen -again- for the 4th or 5th time, I'd like to take this opportunity to say FUCK RAPID RESPONSE
December 18, 2025 at 9:03 AM
worth noting: usually 2 volunteers handing out meals on our distro route takes roughly 90 min (maybe 2 hrs if there are around 100 meals)

but when camps get swept, finding folks is far more time consuming

our route got swept recently

i was doing distro solo last night & it took me 3 goddamn hours
Friday night our volunteers made & shared 58 servings of delicious, nutritious, home-made chicken noodle soup, water, blankets, & harm reduction supplies w/our unhoused neigbors!

lmao ok, i've been offline most of the day, what did i miss?

opened bluesky & the first 2 posts i see are seemingly unrelated bukkake jokes

not impossible to be a coincidence

seems improbable that it was coordinated cum joke by @nightowl.bsky.social & @cyanescens.bsky.social

so what did i miss?

3pm; realized i did not drink the celsius

nearly 4pm; so far, have managed to remove days-old clean laundry from the basket(s) & pile it onto my bed

10pm; put clean laundry back in basket

UPDATE:

My Bratmobile* is back on the road!

I got to drive it home today, all thanks to a kind stranger** on the opposite side of the county*** who found the part in a later model Brat at their local scrap yard!

*AKA Daniel's Brat-tastically Badass Distro Mobile

**a Redditor

***in Florida
Two Sundays ago my beloved Bratmobile sputtered & died while I was driving & it hasn't started since. I learned today that in order to get it back on the road, there's a crucial part that needs to be replaced, but my mechanic was unable to find one - it's been discontinued
