    Hey there! You should make a poultice of plantain. It's common in most places around the US. Here's a link to how one person did it: http://www.naturallivingideas.com/plantain-poultice/

    Newbie from Pittsburgh

    Welcome! It's nice to see other trans guys on here. At the moment I'm back on the opposite side of the state from you and planning my next adventures, too. I was in a pretty similar situation. I was just barely paying bills and couldn't really see the point of slaving away my time and energy...

    How do I research the safety of a watershed?

    It doesn't seem to filter chemical contaminants. That's my main concern.

    How do I research the safety of a watershed?

    Does anyone have ideas on how to research the safety of water you come across in the wild? In addition to biological contaminants that could make a person sick, I'm curious how I can find out about chemical wastes that might be in a water source making it unsafe to drink or bathe in. Things like...

    Interesting reading on tramping about in nature and solitude

    The author talks about learning the skills necessary to tramp and enjoy solitude outside cities and towns. They call it "hobo school", but I would call it "tramp school" or use their term economad. For people who like walking, biking, and other human powered transport as well as solitude, there...

    Mullein? Good for smokers...

    I can vouch for mullein being a smooth smile. I just read a book called Smoking Plants of North America that talks about this and a lot of other plants that have been used by Indigenous peoples. Highly recommended if you're looking into tobacco alternatives and different perspectives on the...

    Cleansing your life of toxic relationships...

    this is something I have experience with as well. I've found YouTube is a gold mine for information to help me understand why I kept having these sorts of relationships in my life. In short, I found it had to do with conditioning that went all the way back into childhood; to make a long story...

    places to hole up for the winter?

    Howdy, all. Thought I'd pick your brains a bit. Been wandering around Cali for like a month and as it gets colder I find myself looking for a place to hole up for the winter, perhaps recharge my funds somehow and relax, plan for spring. A place with good houseless community services and nice...

    News & Blogs What I Learned Hitchhiking Across Canada

    Don't stop voicing your opinion. Just realize other people are going to do the same. Privilege is usually invisible to those who have it, unless they're inclined to ponder abstract things.

    oil pulling for oral health

    Swishing and gargling aren't the same thing. What's the basis for your assertion that oil pulling is bad for your teeth?

    oil pulling for oral health

    Just wanted to let you guys know about something else I've found useful recently. Oil pulling (or swishing oil around in your mouth for a bit and spitting it out) is a good way to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Supposedly it works like flossing to remove crud between the teeth without...

    Redpill

    The Red Pill is highly controversial. The membership and ideas discussed there are a motely bunch. I'd recommend navigating to the subreddit yourself and seeing what you make of it @voodoochile76 . Also scope out men going their own way (MGTOW). From what I can gather (+my opinion), it seems to...
