I hope your community is able to stand in solidarity with you and assist you in getting stable housing and food security. I find Food Not Bombs and other similar orgs to be really helpful where I live.

Yes! For anybody reading, even if there aren't any anarchist orgs nearby, anybody can walk up to an unhoused person and ask them what they need. Or at the very least offer to buy them a coffee.

Handing out hand warmers on cold days and gatorade or popsicles on hot days is a small act that can make a big difference.

At the very least, have a chat with our community members who are going through a rough time.

Thank you for catching that. I'll take this one down.

When I'm sitting at home, I am not living in constant fear of fending off robbers and rapists, or fantasizing about murdering them with a firearm.
