You would think but there's actually not a whole lot of rioting going on so it's a misnomer if anything. On topic: I won't be in attendance this year.

YES. YES IT DOES. But what would be your type specialty? I wanna say ground but fire is a close second. But not rock, you're way too cool to be the easy-to-beat rock type leader. CAN I MAKE YOU A POKEMON TEAM? What generations do you like?

At 28 i'm starting notice my body slowing down and having more aches and pains. Every so often I'll throw my back out on top of everything else. I feel like if I don't start taking care of these problems now then i'm just gonna be a wreck later on. As a side note these glucosamine pills are...

Actually yes, my mom has weak knees and my grandmother had all sorts of arthritis and bone issues beginning at a reasonably young age. I believe it started to onset when she was around 40 or 50, but she was also a battle axe latina momma so it could've started at 30 and she just worked through...

Hmmm, yeah I think so. I haven't banged them or fallen down or anything so I feel like repetitive motion injury makes sense. Those are common in joggers and tennis players right?

Also DAAAAAAAMN that looks like it hurt like hell. My pain is all internal; stepping, bending, crouching all give me a stinging pain like they've been bending way too much. Very much in the joint without any swelling

@palmazon its been gradual this time, getting worse as the weeks go by and acting up real bad on the more active days. The first time I fucked them up was a few years ago when I attempted to bike tour and ended up pushing myself way too hard. I had to stay in bed for a few days and had issues...

@BelleBottoms ya it's definitely a cartilage issue. I'm trying out this once a day supplement called Glucosamine Chondroitin which helps joint problems. I'll post if it works or not once it starts to be noticeably affective... or not lol

It's not bones or the muscle but the joint, bending is painful so squat exercises might be counter productive.

Hokay glad we got that easy target out of the way.

So i'm pretty hard on my knees because my work; a whole lot of bending, lifting, and crawling around. It hasn't been a problem until the last few days when they've started to really ache, even when i'm sitting or laying down. I was wondering if any one else has knee pain and if there's...

Does anyone know if this is the same guy? Apparently this guy also goes by Shaggy and was arrested for murdering a woman who he got a ride with out of the Georgia National Rainbow Gathering.

@creature i'm a bit too occupied with work. I won't have time to do preliminary runs i'm afraid.

@CaptainCassius basically we need people with vehicles to transport other people around slab city as well as the surrounding salton sea areas. Drivers will not need to be familiar with the area, just willing to be chauffeurs.

I've been thinking a lot about the political climate in the US lately, which is something I try not to do. Still, as a Latinx it's impossible to ignore what is happening to immigrants in this country. I think about what separates my family from theirs, the obvious difference being mine has...

@iamwhatiam you make a very good point. Hmmm. Maybe it's worth looking into for real, rather than a silly musing. Hmmmmmmm. Food for thought.

Yeeeeeeah that sounds about right.

No no! I wanna hear how this waterbed idea plays out. By all means, proceed. Though I imagine we could all probably come to some sort of agreement. Ehhhhh @Geraldo?

Now here's something you don't see every day. Screw an StP HQ, let's form our own god damn municipality! Asking price isn't too bad but fuck it, squatters rights. ~A https://www.esquire.com/lifestyle/a21500753/california-ghost-town-for-sale/ An Entire Ghost Town Is for Sale in the Sierras...

@outlawwolf holy shit that umbreon onesie in your avatar! That is amazing and I want a leafeon one.

I think this is entirely doable and I am all about it.

Heya folks! This here is the official 2018 Rideshare Thread! If you are seeking a ride to this year's Jamboree please post your location and when you'll be looking to leave on here! If you have a vehicle and wanna pick up some folks on your way down this thread is the place where you want to...

We are looking for people who are interested in sharing their talents with the rest of us during the 2018 Dirty Scouts Jamboree! That can be either through a workshop they are willing to host or an art/musical performance they wish to put on. Time slots for workshops will be announced soon...

It's that time again! We're looking for volunteers to help with the general operations of this year's Jamboree! Keep in mind that these duties are all very flexible and nothing is set in stone. This is just a list of the general tasks that will help the event run smoothly. If you are interested...

What is the Dirty Scouts Jamboree? The Dirty Scouts Jamboree is the tongue-and-cheek name we've given to the annual meetup of misfit travelers from the online community Squat the Planet. This is going to be a rare opportunity to hang out and get to know a lot of the people from the StP...

Welp that still puts you in Texas, so that's definitely a negative. Houston itself is a pain in the ass to hitch out of though not impossible. If you head directly east you're either i10 or US90 both of which get easier to deal with the further from Texas you get. Then it's a matter of figuring...

Hitching from LA to NY eh? My advice is to spend as little time on I-10 and I-80 as possible. The 10 will be hot as hell and getting through Texas is a nightmare. The 80 is alright, but the landscape is kind of dull and boring. There are all sorts of routes you could take that offer up...

Well this is relevant to my interests. Won't lie, i'm positive that pokemon is what first gave me wanderlust as a child. Heck I still play pokemon. My 3DS friend code is 1779-1681-5309 if any of ya'll motherfuckers wanna square up.

Oh... sweetie... How bad was the ride?

Hmmm. I'm currently in that area myself, though I don't really have any means to help out. What kind of resources did you need? I'm guessing just a place to crash? I could take ya out for a meal but that's really all I can offer at this point. @creature might be able to help out more. He's...

Eh, a lot of reasons I suppose. There have been so many different people coming in and out of these forums through the years that the ones that never contributed or never hit the road tend to fall into the void eventually. I remember when I signed up, I never thought I'd have the gumption to...

That's something for you to figure out and when you do you know we'll be accepting and supportive. Also don't think whatever you decide is set in stone, figuring yourself out is a lifetime process.

I don't understand what you mean by wiggle room. If someone is more fluid they'll tell you that they're more fluid. If someone isn't sure what they are they'll tell you that they aren't sure. If someone prefers not to be defined they'll tell you just that, they don't want to be defined by...

@Cornelius Vango Then it's up to us to learn from those specific marginalized groups that we find hard define what they themselves wish to be defined as. It's not hard, all it takes is the willingness to get to know the person. On the opposite side of the coin we as queer individuals need to...

Those definitions are what give us marginalized groups our power. There is strength in embracing an identity for yourself and solidarity in finding those who define themselves similarly. A world that doesn't recognize those definitions is the one we've already had to grow up in. And that world...

Oh you better believe my gay-ass would be picking them up. I mean look at them robes! The conversations we would have, lord have mercy. Shasay away baby, sissy that walk. *snap*snap*

Yaaaaas, the queer ranks increase once more! Welcome to the site! It sounds like you've already got some experience which is awesome!

My first sexual experience was when I was 15, I was raped by a guy in his mid twenties. After that I started going to more and more parties with older men where I'd get blackout drunk and wake up to someone inside me, this happened quite a bit. I've been abducted for three days by a guy who...

I used to do this game where I'd walk around with a deck of cards and use that to figure out where I want to go. Basically I'd just walk around and draw cards from the deck every time I came to an intersection. Red means turn right, black turn left, royal cards mean go straight. It was a fun...

Honestly, not that much. In theory, making money doing postmates deliveries on the road was great idea. In practice, not so much. I'd work six hour shifts and only complete around two to four deliveries (like $30 ish total). The main problem was that postmates in LA isn't ideal for bike...

You should most definitely should be fine! That route is all sorts of beautiful and like @siid said the west is a completely different world. But for the record posing as a latino isn't gonna win you any brownie points with the rural people that American kid was talking about. My go to used to...

Corn may no longer run things at the library but it is now in the hands of Andrew, @VikingAdventurer , so to answer your question, no, it doesn't change anything.

Oh thanks, just when I thought I ran out of my childhood-nightmare-fuel you dump that gas can into my lap.

For some reason something about an 11 and 14 year old singing along to Old Number Seven makes me EXTREMELY happy. In a twisted way of course.

I feel like there was a ridiculous reason for me staring so intently at that fly strip. Or maybe I'm just being naturally weird, again. Either way, excellent photos!

Jovan "Apache" Arce passed away about a week ago. The police contacted his family and they're the ones who told everyone else, he was found in SoCal. Unfortunately, that's all I know. Apache was a character. Most of the time I couldn't decide whether I wanted to smack him or kiss him. That's...

Just me in front of my van, being a goober .

That highly depends on how you're traveling and what you intend to use it for. If you're hitch/hopping with a backpack then I'd say hell no. But if you're rubber tramping then its just a matter of usage versus space. For instance, I used to travel with a tool bag in my van. I have plenty of...

Oh you have got to be kidding. He's STILL throwing a tantrum? Also I think that's the first time I've ever heard someone describe the crust community as being "sacrosanct". Seriously, what is so sanctimonious about berating the mentally ill? How can that intolerance be considered a value? The...

Aww heeeeell no. I was a bike messenger for awhile and you're right, minor collisions just happen. Still, if she said that you me I'd be liable to lose my shit and cuss her out. Good on yea for not doing that. I think the dumbest thing anyone has ever said to me was in the slabs. I was wearing...
