Thanks for this awesome list :) I'm gonna bump it for folks looking for movies to watch with the fam this holiday season, but also raise you this great list of movies with anarchist themes from Wikpedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_dealing_with_anarchism Oh, and may be well...

Hey-o, I'm in Quito. If anyone comes down to Ecuador, hit me up :)

@StinkySocks did you ever make it to ATL?

Hey, So I just climbed Mount Matterhorn in the Sierras (California, USA). If you haven't read Jack Kerouac but you hang around stp, you should probably check him out. His most popular book On The Road described the life of a traveling bum of the Beat Generation following WWII. In the 40s &...

And if "War is a Racket" blew your mind, here's some similar-topic'd books that I found to be extremely eye-opening as well: A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn Blowback: The Costs and Consequences of American Empire by Chalmers Johnson Confessions of an Economic Hitman by...

I didn't even notice this until now. fwiw, I'm _that_ dude :) Thank you for posting this! "War is a Racket" is such a short "book" -- it really should be mandatory reading in all US schools.. Here's some further reading on the facsist's (ie: JP Morgan's) attempts to overthrow the US Government...

if you can get a bank account, simple.com appears to be the most free option. No fees at all if you transfer with ACH (via bank routing & account #s). Bluebird charges you for adding money into the account. * https://www.simple.com/policies/bbva-compass-truth-in-savings-disclosure *...

I think there's been some misunderstandings, but I love y'all regardless. Thanks for providing these resources. And thanks for all your hard work on the Library, Corn.

Oh, I definitely wouldn't do that. I ended up dumpstering a couple of old 20L vegetable oil carboys from behind fast food restaurants plus about a dozen 1L bottles and my 14L in dromedaries. So I brought-in about 65L of water for the week. I was very sad when I arrived to find the huge fence...

Further research tells me I should bring the following gift items: 1. Whiskey 2. Peat Moss 3. Duct Tape http://eastjesus.org/needs/

I did some more digging & found there's a fucking canal full of water that runs along the north-east side of Slab City, less than 1km from the center. This post mentions that the water is drinkable unfiltered (I'll filter it tho). *...

Hello! What should I bring to Slab City? My primary concern is pooping, and I can't find any info on this. How do most people (who don't have permanent infrastructure or an RV) poop in slab city? I'm currently in Prescott, AZ, and I'll be going to Slab City shortly for about a week. I've been...

Wow, that's brilliant! I'll keep that in mind if I see anyone thumbing it outside a National Park

Hey, Is it a good idea to buy the National Park Service Annual Pass for $80? I'm planning my first cross-country trip by car, and I'm probably going to hit all the places that I've missed before because I didn't have a car: Grand Canyon, Joshua Tree, Zion, Yosemite, Yellowstone, etc. And I'll...

Good question. I paid $2,000. In general, I buy almost everything used (or, better, find it in a dumpster). But there's not many Bromptons in the US as they're made in London. I was looking in the NYC area off-and-on for about a year, and there just weren't many for sale on craigslist. For...

This is extremely interesting. How high up do you go? I've never got into hammocks because I like the ability to setup where there are no trees around, but stealth camping *in* a tree?? fwiw, the Brompton is not light. It's not something I would ever carry up a mountain with me. I quickly get...

I just finished my first bicycle tour on a folder, and there's no going back. My traveling life first began when I took off summer to ride 3,800 miles from the Atlantic to the Pacific. I got to see the country. Urban. Rural. I saw the endless farms with GMO corn. I passed farmworkers in full...

The LHT is probably the best option. Get them used off craiglist in Astoria, OR or San Francisco or Seattle at the end of summer. Lots of people take off summers to cycle from the Atlantic to the Pacific. When they finish, they often will choose to sell it rather than pay ~$400 to pay to get...

Brilliant. Which cards do you recommend? I was thinking visa gift card.

Thanks for the info! Wow, I had no idea I had to give them my bank information. I can't just buy a $100 gift card & give them that? Yikes :(

Umm, I have no proprietary google software on my Nexus. I don't even have Gapps = Google Play Services installed, since it necessarily has tons of permissions that I don't want to give Google. My custom recovery is TWRP using SuperSU to get root & I'm running the LineageOS ROM. One of the...

I've done similar searches, but they often don't take into account state registration fees + insurance.

stick to Nexus phones. They're the defacto developer model, so they're released with the intention of being hacked (rooted, unlocked, custom bootloader, etc). Last phone I bought was a Nexus 4 for $45 on ebay.

Hey All, I'm looking at driving cross-country for the first time soon, and I was wondering: what's the best gym (for showers) when traveling cross-country? I imagine "best" would consider: Cost Distribution (exists in almost every major city & many towns in-between) The most important thing...

Hey All, What's the best State (uh, in the Continental US) to register your car? I just bought a microhouse (Prius); it's registered in NY. I only bought 6 months of insurance cuz I was thinking of registering it in Virginia after my commitments in NY are severed, and I hit the road. Is...

I've fixed-up at a few great bike co-ops in Vancouver, BC.

Missing Link.

Hey stp, I've been brought here from google many times in the past years, and I finally decided to create an account. I've been traveling for about 2 years now, mostly in America (Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Canada, US), but with a brief visit to India for work. I generally spend 2 weeks -...
