    that special someone back home?

    I checked out my partner's blog and basically found out not only is he sad about his current situation (cruddy job and cruddier home) but being his go-to shoulder to cry on, his playmate, lover and someone close to his age that can relate to him I didn't realize how lonely he is back home. I...

    I love that bridge! I chilled out there for a few hours. Is the cool nautilus tag thing still there?

    Staying in contact with partner on the road

    Urrrm, well if you both have something you can browse the Internet with that can help. Invest in the dinkiest cheapest phone ever and just pay as you go? Set up spots around the city (San Fran: Pier 39) or previous squats. On the road: just set a meeting place at the next major stop.

    Gender stuff

    I hope it doesn't sound like I have hate in my heart toward the ignorant. I really don't. Creature, while you do make a good point I think I have a little more hope for the future. I'm a simple person and my viewpoint on *this* was little more than apathetic not very long ago. Change isn't as...

    Doing what 'they' want didn't work

    Great story! Going out on the road with your son is fucking beautiful too. One word of advice, and while I can understand the passions you hold and how that can certainly fuel your fire, realize that your cruddy suffering not only makes a great story (sorry) but it brought you here and you're...

    Gender stuff

    Before I go on and on, I bring up disney in a bad light (while they are gorgeous movies and generally pretty sweet) because their idea of feminism and empowerment is Frozen.

    Gender stuff

    Well, really everyone should talk about this. Moms, dads, teachers. The disney movies we could have been raised on should have taught us this. Notice how many kids shows nowadays (and back in the 90's. Not sure how much before that. I'm sure there were some) Are really trying to educate people...

    Complete Lifestyle Change

    Are you their only child? I'm lucky enough that my dad kind supports this and focuses the college stuff on my siblings who are actually interested in it. Try dudes! For rizzle, I've had some luck dating men. Everyone is different. I dunno, that stuff can be frustrating. Why don't you hit the...

    Teenage Runaway

    Heya, there was a lot of good advice on this post, I don't know what happened at home to make you feel that way and I'm not going to call you spoiled or anything because it isn't wrong to be unhappy with something. But the thing is you are young and some people will try to take advantage of...

    Gender stuff

    So for most of my life I thought I lived in a society that wasn't ruled by men. I still do believe that. Somewhat. I didn't really notice this until recently but a lot of the crappy stuff that has happened to me in my life have occurred because I was born with parts. Parts that, biologically...

    Help, new traveling to san francisco

    One word of caution though and I don't know the longterm effect of it but back in December there were a bunch of protests and in the weeks that followed the cops fucking CRACKED DOWN it was a pain sleeping on telegraph but there are the hills and people's park. Also, sleeping in GG around...

    Help, new traveling to san francisco

    I just got done with a little adventure like that. Personally, I had a better time sleeping around the beach in the sunset district. Waaay less people. There is a cool secluded park around there. Wrap yourself in a tarp and you'll be good for the night. Also, Berkeley (it's a free bart hop...

    Places You Hate Most

    God damn Sacramento, CA. 0 peeps to talk to, not too many decent sleeping spots (in sight of cops or a home bum claimed that spot), it was the most suffocating city I've ever been to and I walked that shit for like 5 days, hard as hell to hitch out of and the yard workers around there (the one...

    Young and completely new to life on the road

    OP, I totally just got back from the first adventure. As another youngster who was pretty new to this kinda stuff I can tell you it's a life changing decision, a very rewarding one at that. I'm going to lay down some advice though. -Never let being a female hold you back. Take some precautions...
