Last night, exhausted, I sought refuge in a 24hr laundromat.
The price of rest? Nearly everything I owned.
I woke to hands in my pockets. Spent hours running through dark streets from thieves. When I finally returned, shaking, the laundromat owner didn't offer helpโhe threatened to call police.

The Cruel Math of Nighttime Homelessness:
โ Sleep = Risk of theft โ No phone charge = No emergency help โ Closed bathrooms = Lost dignity โ Seeking help = Being criminalized
โโโโโโโโโ
We urgently need: โข 24/7 safe spaces โข Public charging stations โข Accessible restrooms โข Business owners who see us as neighbors in crisis, not threats
