alright, check this out - it's chat, and it's about complex topics. If you wanna get passive aggressive and butthurt, this is as far as we get

ha! that shit's comedy, people are always unprepared and wanna bitch about lack of toilet paper or drinking fountains or whatever. But, someone is going to ask you to start your own thread, maybe a more 'general' AT thread, so as to not derail the more precise theme of this thread. I for sure...

i get all of that, but the topic is safety on these long-distance trails and that's all I was trying to make a point about.

in reality it *is* case-by-case and everyone is technically vulnerable, but because of the very real advantages (passing for) straight (passing for) white (passing for) males have *in comparison* to everybody else, nobody is going to give a shit about how vulnerable you feel until you actually...

you're fuckin right it would work, but it will take quite a bit of time going overland

i mean, i considered joining the military not that long ago, since i have a bachelor's degree i'd go "right to officer's school!!". it's one of a variety of traps set up for many types of folk, not just the lowest of low income folk. But thankfully I have enough perspective and people in my...

tryin to be impersonal, here are two points of view I value in general in my personal life on this matter - veterans - I respect them and don't shit on them for something that's already done, something they've experienced that they've literally no option to change. open to listen an shit. I...

ya man I feel like this site is not only bringing information to people, but bringing people together- with stipulations dictated mainly by the owner and also by staff - some people in Untrustworthy / Shady are x, yes but if someone is just an unbearable asshole? and they can be exposed here...

Go for it. it's my favorite place in the US, there is so much badass and varied nature. Quil was cool, everything was walkable from where I was housed near the station, but yeah Sequim would likely be a more wholesome place, holistic type advantages, especially if yr in a vehicle. I had...

i lived in Quilcene for 6 months or so in USFS housing, it was winter 2014-2015. this is a really nice place to live man, I gotta recommend taking the job. When I was traveling on the peninsula I never had any problem crashing in my vehicle. granted this was mostly on the western side with even...

this is some relevant content for anyone tryin to go to Japan. There are some parts with this guy hitchhiking and sleeping rough, it's worth a look. I'm not in love with his character revealed through narration, but take what you like. All of his videoes are (imho) VERRRRY well edited and concise

this is pretty much it OP, I can understand your being bored / tied to college almost at the finish line, and you're desperate, wanting to live vicariously and all, but the buttass naked truth is that you gotta go out and live what authentically intrigues you, life is not a spectator sport and...

litttle do i know but i dont think many will argue that point

will be interesting to hear back on how yr experiences within go

i have a real penchant for this type of 'urban' decay becoming a 'natural' relic. I think it took root when I was out kayaking at low tide and ended up poking a paddle into a small sunken rowboat. Somehow really enticing just the sight of these things

i think it's easy to scoff at photography as it's so... oversaturated today but i see what you did with these really great photos man, thanks for your dedication and formation there

nice, take as much time as you can zigzagging about on the way, there is an endless amount to see and experience… you got anywhere you're particularly interested in between massachussetts and California? enjoy the archives of great info here via the search-bar and perhaps even link with some...

thought for a second I was in private messaging, please delete

This is what I wanna know What was the "culture" that originated "gauging one's ears"? and who can possibly validate their claim to that knowledge to anywhere near 100%?

it's a huge topic, vast amount of things that go into it.. and it sounds like you're on the right track. word of mouth can make or break people, including those who are misunderstood or don't deserve to be ridiculed or what-have-you, but too those who really don't deserve respect. imagine...

Why you have so many 1s? You going to the strip club? (Never been but what the hell does that ever have to do with policing?)

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho is a good philosophy joint

these lyrics are really quite deep for anyone who is trying to subvert from the misery in the "mainstream" life & times

my best advice is to not do it - because whether or not anyone out there judges you for gauging your ears, you are already judging yourself for *maybe appropriating **a** culture* (?) so the truth is that you're setting yourself up for distraction and unhappiness over something superficial.

classically delusional victim mentality

honestly the best advice aside from simplifying all yr assets is looking for a high crime/low-decile area to reside in. I currently live in an undesirable area and rent is cheap in a quality place, easy to find work and other ways of acquiring good, cheap needs/wants + I feel like I have a ton...

you're not wrong, but change up the timeframe and it'd be more feasible; save 50 dollars for 10 months and there's 500. Granted I get that it's a fantasy to get 100 people to cooperate

first off I'm really sorry I know this is a frustrating topic and I'm slow with this type of content so thanks for not gettin emo/agro on me as people are known to do what I mean is that what @Desperado Deluxe is saying is like - the way food stamps are set up it funnels billions of dollars...

and ironically the thread took a rest for a few weeks upon this comment

Disclaimer: I don't know anything What interests me here is what I'm reading from @Desperado Deluxe AND what I'm reading from you are, as far as I can tell, *not* mutually exclusive.

I can understand that you're bitter but I think most of the people who come illegally have bigger and more complicated issues to deal with than $100. perspective

it's good to see somebody offering a different point of view

nice - which countries did ya visit?

@1:45 I will. Not go. Down under the ground 'cause somebody's told me that death's coming 'round And I will not carry myself down to die. When I go to my grave my head will be high Let me die - in my footsteps - before I go down under the ground

Thank you for having enough sense to put these words together. This is exactly how I feel, there are people on here who wanna try to diminish this resource, but they don't even have sound reason together to make a point. Which ironically only reflects badly on them.

So look at the OP here, what is constructive or indicates trustworthiness in the OP? What is honest or meaningful from his post? From what I'm reading here you're doing the same thing he did, not even setting up a thorough comment and so your point not only falls flat - it becomes very much...

Post in thread 'I am leaving Squat the Planet.' by feralautistic has been reported by roughdraft. Reason given: Content being reported:

I don't know you or Matt but this in particular is very bothering: If this is so, why have you not ever taken the opportunity to expose this person, such as making a thread in the ''untrustworthy/shady' section? Basically you are admitting yourself as an accessory to enabling a 'predator'.

In my experience... I've rented from a few different places in a couple of these smaller (30 - 60,000 people) "cities" / "college towns" - and while they have clearly not been Portland or even Eugene size/potential goings-ons - I have never had to show proof of income let alone xxxx.xx amount...

i think it mostly depends on your overall health, physical/emotional/the works; it can either be an adventure or a nightmare. I know I've experienced both.

ahh now I see. fuckin wow, what a mess Welcome to your public lands - Enjoy your stay! (of fourteen days STRICTLY and don't forget to bring in your original gov't issued blah blah blah and no we will not recieve a faxed from aunt jane)

God man thank you for this powerful writeup, wishing you well in this difficult time..

thank you for being the sane voice of reason
