    Most shelters or hotels offered during Covid don't allow unhoused to bring pets. Many have strict no alcohol/drug policies, and strict curfews.

    There is a dehumanizing aspect that prevents full use.

      Yeah. A lot of them also are like, basically just a closet, you can only stay in it for a month, don't even have a bathroom...

      When the complaint is "the homeless people take up too much space" as it is here, giving them a "home" they can only bring a single garbage bag full of stuff to isn't an answer, especially when "buy back all the shit you had to throw out" is something they, by definition, can't do.

      Invariably, people crying about the homeless just don't get the reality of the situation, once had some dude strung out of his mind on drugs - the only real way to temporarily escape the misery that is being homeless - act weird around them that one time.
