Imagine that your life is so pathetic and empty that staying at a Motel 6 for day or two and stealing food from a pizza place is the absolute highlight. That and just talking about food nonstop because that's the only thing that makes him happy.
Also, what happened to him getting an apartment and a job? Getting that Covid money should have gone to help both those things happen but....it's Lucas.
Realistically, even if he did try, and I mean legitimately try, not the half assed attempts he claims he's making in videos then doesn't even half ass the half assing of those attempts, to get both of those things he never would because:
1. He got himself on a no rent list for government housing for the bullshit he pulled at Pioneer Pathway and he has a history of evictions which means no private landlord would rent to him even if he could afford to pay month to month, which he can't. He can claim "they're" trying to help him find housing all he wants, but a low level payee or social worker isn't going to be able to do jack shit if he got himself put on a no rent government housing list for trying to blackmail neighbors into giving him women to rape.
2. Even if he managed to get someone on Craigslist to respond to an ad for a roommate (or got a response from someone he contacted about their ad), they'd ghost him or refuse him the second they googled his name, let alone ran a proper background check or credit check.
3. He has no GED and no relevant work experience to make up for lack of a GED; he's been out of the workforce for at least 20 years. That plus his age would put him at a severe disadvantage even if he didn't have a host of mental illness and health issues he refuses to treat. There is a difference between "can't afford to treat" and "willingly refuses to treat" and Lucas is 100% the latter. He CAN afford treatment, the state pays for it, he just refuses to get it and stick with it. He'd be a liability for every employer based on that alone.
He's such a moron that he doesn't realize that
that's what agephobia looks like: Refusing to even consider someone based on their age alone, which is what would generally be happening to him if he applied for even entry level, minimum wage work. He'd lose out to the 16 year old high school kid applying every time because, let's face it, a 41 year old with no GED and no relevant work experience has about the same level of education and work experience as most 16 year olds. Assuming the 41 year old is like that because they're the human equivalent to a stray cat with fleas, mange, and distemper is what actual agephobia looks (at least one facet of it at any rate) like while assuming a 16 year old is like that because they're 16 and just need the experience but, otherwise, nothing amiss at the same time.
4. While being homeless
is a barrier to employment, usually due to not having reliable transportation, a permanent address, or being able to shower and/or do laundry regularly, there are employers who will give someone who is homeless a chance if they can show that their main barrier to at least the last two things on that list is not having a job as those two things are the hardest to get and maintain without a job.
5. The weed smoking. Yeah, yeah, weed is legal in Washington State but it's still illegal on the federal level and employers in most states are legally allowed to and often do refuse to hire or will fire people if they fail a piss test. Lucas would absolutely fail any drug test he had to submit to and would be stopped at the door or get shitcanned after the first random drug test if he managed to get hired.
Christ, people in states that have legal medical weed and have cards to prove it's legal for them to possess it and use it can still get fired in a lot of states for it because none of those laws dictate that an employer CAN'T fire them for it and most states are at will employment states. Lucas wouldn't have a leg to stand on either way.
Lucas would have to get his life in order even for a serious, determined attempt at a job or housing would ever have even a glimmer of hope of panning out and he's too stupid and stubborn to do that because the first step to doing that would be to get his ass back to a hospital and get in to see a shrink to get back on meds and into therapy, two things he repeatedly and angrily will screech about being unnecessary.
