The way I’ve been berated at/spit at/followed & harassed when I can’t give people what they want is actually insane. I just now had someone approach me asking for “just $0.25-.50 for some food”, and while I didn’t have any cash, I had just went to get food so I offered a burger instead. He said “fuck you nah I’m good” while walking away. After literally just asking for food….. I know a lot of homelessness is a societal issue, and that everyone is one missed paycheck away/ one disastrous event away from being homeless themselves, but it just sucks that some bad apples will not bat an eye at preying on the guilt & empathy of others. Hurts my heart.
