What To Do If You Suddenly Find Yourself Homeless

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

Okay so i thought of some moon boi ™ head canons

( @xcatnapsx had input of course because she is the brains round here and told me to post this )

(Also pls be nice i’ve never done this before xoxo)

Okay so imagine reader and Khonshu being besties even though she can't see him like they hate eachother at first but then become like siblings

- Marc, sighing heavily: Khonshu says hi

- Marc, aggressively annoyed now: excuse me, sorry, he said HI

Marc wakes u up in the night and he’s so mad and you’re like huh? And u can see the flat is a mess with things knocked over - signs of a Khonshu tantrum - and Marc is almost crying from anger “khonshu wanted me to tell u that he saw a cool rock today and it made him think of u, AND FOR SOME REASON ThAT iNFORMATION COULDNT WAIT TIL FucKING MORNING”

You joke that its like having your own lil poltergeist knocking things about and your bois are NOT impressed

Pause. Think about this (amazing video, obsessed with the snake facts and the delivery of them). Imagine if you were living your life then an unknowable entity scooped you up and started very very excitedly ranting about how amazing a creature like you is. It loudly goes on and on, getting more and more excited. You try to wiggle away to no avail. But it’s not hurting you, it’s being very gentle as it holds you. It’s just so happy it finally found a creature like you!! So excited!! And it goes on about how beautiful you look and random facts about your species!!

And then you’re finally allowed to slip away, you are let go back into your day-to-day life. The experience was a little frightening, but you are completely unharmed and safe. You return to what you were doing before.

Okay, yes, I started listening to "Malevolent" podcast. So far, these guys give the impression of those idiots who, on occasion, will read the Necronomicon out loud. I like it!

Medical Whump - Cheat Sheet

I really love reading whump related stories, and I know that no one has the time to do 100% research, so here‘s somewhat of a cheat sheet including all commonly made mistakes. Feel free to write me what you‘d add, or ask questions.

I‘m not a medical professional, but I can explain most stuff quite well 😅

Temperature

Body heat CAN NOT be shared through wet clothes

Clinical treatments of hypothermia does most definitely include the administration of a bag of warm saline

Patients running a fever ARE NOT receiving cold baths/cooling bags. Because:

A too quick change in temperature can cause cellular damage

Cold can lead to shivering, which is warming the body up further

Burns

Burn wounds ARE NOT treated with cold patching, which would cause cellular damage because of a too quick change in temperature

They are, in fact, (if not third degrees) patched with a salve that has cooling and infection lowering effects

Burn treatment is incredibly painful, as it includes loosing the old skin in order to allow new sets of tissues to heal

Pulse / Breathing / Cardiopulmonary Resuscation

Pulse has to be analyzed given the context (resting, workout, ect)

Rescue breaths are no longer common practice (only if the patient drowned, asphyxiated, or a child / young adolescent)

A person can breathe without a pulse and vice versa

A flatline is the missing electrical activity in the heart, which means a patient is clinically dead.

A defibrillator disrupts an electrical pattern

A FLATLINE CAN NOT BE DEFIBRILLATED! Only thing this would cause is to burn the heart muscle

Cardiac Arrest DOES NOT necessarily mean a person flatlined. Cardiac Arrest is the term used for every sort of heart rhythm that doesn‘t produce a pulse

People who have suffered cardiac arrest and resuscitation efforts WILL NOT just miraculously be fine and talking and moving right afterwards
