My phone broke on me. I was reminded of how important it was that that device worked. I can't contact my family without it. they don't use internet-based messengers. I don't have a phone line. I can only try and get this thing to work again.
why do I have to depend on them
I find a hack around and I'm able to break through. I got a hold of my mom and my dad. Mom tells me she doesn't have money to easily fix the issue and tells me to contact Dad. Dad tells me he doesn't know what to do and to contact Mom.
why do I have to depend on my parents wealth?
a week passes and I have gone twice to my provider store and they gave me the work around. they told me they don't know what to do and I will need to call up their tech support. I ask why can't I just buy a new phone? they tell me they don't have any in stock. they then tell me to go to a website to file a report.
why do I have to spend so much time to have a phone?
I try filing the report and I get to a point where they demand my financial information. I don't have an answer because I didn't pay for my phone, My parents did. I tried all my credit card numbers and they rejected every single one of them. I can't get a new phone.
why do I have to spend money to truly own a phone?
I contact my mom who I'm pretty sure spent the initial funds to get me my phone. she's in another state. her husband's mother bought her her current house in Texas with money she made from a military contract, more then half a million dollars. she's living a good life. unlike me who spends around 27,000 a month to stay alive outside of a tent camp.
why does it take marriage to give you a home?
I lay on my roadside mattress on the floor, all alone, fumbling with my phone, trying to figure out how to make it work. The thought rings in my head that with the right partner all my pain will go away and I won't live in the state anymore, but why?
why does it take marriage to a wealthy man to escape poverty?

I find it a great injustice that the so called "greatest nation on earth" has such a economic mobility issue.
not to mention the US spent the past decade in a forever war where they tainted their own soldiers in burn pit fumes to die of lung cancer after the fact.
If the back does not come off or your phone uses a sim tray, you may be able to drip some rubbing alcohol onto a thin strip of cardboard (Like, cereal box thin) Then insert it a few times to clean the sim card contacts. Let it dry, then reinsert the card.

I'm guessing it works for a bit after you reinsert it and then randomly dies off again?
I found this comment saying they fixed it by putting a piece of paper under the sim card, so it pushes against the contacts more and a few others saying it worked https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixe.....mment/h91hrk0/. Try at your own risk, but it does sound like the kind of dumb hack that might just work.
I believe I reset it to factory settings but I'd have to doublecheck. The phone was purchased 2ndhand in 2017 in good condition, and used until 2019. I replaced the battery since then and upgraded to a used iPhone 7 which is what I currently use.
I have no easy answers as none exist. But an attempt at lateral movement instead of upward may provide results. A partnership with another creator or turning your artistic talents towards something more mechanical or a new base. As an example dnd hobbyists often have some disposable income. Making character profiles or avatars could be regular revenue.
It's incredibly draining on one's spirit and hope to be locked in such a terrible cycle. It's taken me 12 years just to get my damn feet out of it and even tried to end myself twice! All I can honestly do is wish you the best and hope to help find an agreeable solution to your continued dilema so you can grow as an artist and person.
Difficult to spread your roots with no sun or soil afterall.
