   Please hang in there. I'm facing some difficult things as well, and can relate with being highly experienced and older. Suicide is NEVER an option in my mind. Despite what I face, I could never think of doing such to the family I hav

   Ultimately, worse than being isolated at home in a wheelchair. For nearly half of the last 12 months, because of a severely broken foot, I learned life in a wheelchair. It was confirmed I would need a second surgery, and within a week I wa

   I've personally found that sometimes using a tool like PlantUML[1] or others (lot DOT graphs) to sometimes be easier to create visualizations with. It seems to allow me to focus more on various pieces as the big picture is built. It

   I absolutely knew the lease ended in August. There was no notification, until yesterday, that my home had already been rented out. I also had the intention to renew said lease, but it's all up in the air at this point.

   At this point, fighting may make the difference as to if I am homeless for my 40th birthday. I spent 6 months in a wheelchair in this apartment in the last year. Moving isn't something that I can physically do myself - and family is

   Thank you for this response. I'm looking into my options - I'm pretty sure it varies state by state. While not what I wanted to do, I'll likely be on the phone with our tenant resource center to find out more once open.

   The annual lease ends in August. I'm still struggling with how this all could have happened. They scheduled a showing, and then told me the people looking had already rented the place sight unseen. I've been here for 2.5years B

   I should have said rented out from under me - It was rented by someone sight unseen in the middle of COVID without them notifying me I wouldn't be able to renew my lease.

    This hit me personally (somewhat) yesterday - I'm not being evicted, but learned that my apartment was rented out from me during the COVID-19 crisis (used in past tense) yesterday. Struggling with enough other things that a move certa

    When I first started doing volunteer health assessments and triage at our local homeless shelter, I inquired if facial hair was an issue with PPE. The organization's initial response was no. I sent them a link to the CDC guidance[1] t

    Living in the center of a mid-sized city - this isn't always possible. When doing volunteer health assessments at the local homeless shelter, I came across several situations where there isn't a clear path to get to my destinatio

    Any idea if the torrent might get updated to more than 5 of the files contained? I was quite disappointed after grabbing it.

    I see only 5 actual files in the torrent that are mp4. It's far from a complete torrent. I really would love a full copy of all of this.

    I've learned a ton about the homeless population and shelter process. I've been a volunteer leading health assessments and triage (via volunteer Telehealth nurses) at our local men's shelter. The shelter has even experienced
