    Need Crew

    So I am also interested in this, but don't really want to risk my life. Fuck mass society -- getting out of it has immense appeal. But I don't want to do it if I have a significant risk of dying (despite the fact that taking risks does have some appeal). So, Caveman sailor, can you elaborate on...

    My Future or Hurtling Towards Enslavement

    Thanks everyone. Any more suggestions? Specifics perhaps? College is going ok so far, but I am having difficulties.

    homeless, carless, jobless college grad struggling to get on solid ground...

    What do you mean by the fact that you are calling shenanigans? Are you assuming that Neo is trying to waste people's time, rather than ask for help? If so, why?

    homeless, carless, jobless college grad struggling to get on solid ground...

    And Finn, I should add that I DO appreciate the advice you gave me on the forum thread that I created the other day. Nevertheless, I felt your hostility towards Neo was entirely unwarranted here.

    Hi, Neo, while I have no good advice, I'd just like to apologize on behalf of cruel individuals (especially finn and aj) who responded to your request for help with extreme suspicion and baseless accusations. Its really upsetting to me when even amongst the "down and out" members of society...

    My Future or Hurtling Towards Enslavement

    So, dramatic title aside, I do really need some advice, which isn't exactly travel-related, but I figured this might be a decent place to ask. Because I was burnt-out from high school and sick of the insanity of the educational system, I took a year off from school. I am now supposed to start...

    Warning This is a Rant fueled by Booze and such

    I don't think it makes you a bad person to escape from and retaliate against those who have harmed you. If your mom did in fact "(stand)by knowingly while (your) childhood was violently stolen from (you)," then she is a fucked-up individual. If you feel you can make amends, and that your mom is...

    basics

    So you advocate just letting it burn, even if it consumes all of us? I realize this is a rather vague and general response, but I gather you understand what I mean... You think we should just let the elites inflict suffering upon us, correct?

    basics

    :) I rather enjoyed your well-worded response. Indeed, it is often best to avoid this (unfortunately) common type of person.

    Smash the state: sell your guns and buy a computer

    I must second the view that more technology, especially in the sense that you advocate, is inclined to lead to increased dehumanization; I have no desire to become a machine. We are already machine-like enough due to the influences of the mainstream media, prescription drugs, highways/cars...

    basics

    CXR, you may be surprised to note that despite your inability to even make a halfway decent attempt at refuting my points with regard to the Egypt revolution from a little while back, and your "You, sir, are an idiot" statement directed at me in another thread (the one regarding the trainhopping...

    Prepare or just call me a paranoid conspiriter

    I have doubts about the level of truth contained in those links, and am also inclined to think that much of it is bullshit. However, a real, provable conspiracy theory is that of the controlled demolitions that occurred on 9-11-01. Please note, I am not a reactionary libertarian, and I have...

    Hey, I'm Ian, here's my life story and a request for genuine insight.

    I'm not sure a police state is lolzworthy :) "We are fucked unless we resist" would perhaps be a better way to think of it :)

  16. rationale

    Hey, I'm Ian, here's my life story and a request for genuine insight.

    I can't promise you genuine insight, but I can definitely relate. I'm currently taking a year off before attending college (19 yrs old as well), and have not yet traveled, but hope to (perhaps "long to" is the better way to put it). I am constantly frustrated by my inability to break away from...

    Taking Cars or RVs to National Forests/BLM Land

    Phoenix, no problem that you merged the threads, but they were distinctly different questions, hence the different thread. But I suppose since they were fairly similar its easier to have them on one thread anyway. Phoenix and Dameon, thanks for the advice.

    My names Angie, and I'm trying to get out of Nebraska.

    Hello. If you know anything about train yards in the Denver area please PM me. I have not hopped a train either (or traveled at all for that matter), but am looking to do so. Also, nice intro :)

    Taking Cars or RVs to National Forests/BLM Land

    Taking My Car to a Campground Do campgrounds allow normal cars? Or must one have an RV to camp there? Do requirements in this regard vary from campground to campground? If they vary by state, I'm specifically interested in campgrounds in Arizona and California, so if you know what vehicle...

    Taking Cars or RVs to National Forests/BLM Land

    Are most national forests and BLM lands normal car accessible? And are they RV accessible? (Is there a place to park?) If so, will this get you more easily discovered (I do NOT intend to camp in the car)? Actually though - is it reasonable to camp in a car on National Forest or BLM land? If...

    is print dead?

    Print is not yet dead, but is certainly dying, at least in the U.S. Much of what is tangible, what engages the senses, what has a unique quality, what is natural, is being replaced by the digital, artificial, humanity-destroying, non-tactile, and fake. We need to fix this. We might not be able...

    Looking to build or purchase a cabin near Denver, Colorado

    Hi. I am looking to either purchase or build a cabin in a fairly rural wilderness area as cheaply as possible. I don't know if this is even possible, but ideally it would be within a 30 minute drive of Denver, Colorado. Ideally it would also have a decent amount of open space where dogs could...
