I slept in one for a couple or three nights. It was 24 hour access so nobody gave a fuck. It was infested with fleas and bedbugs. The lights were on 24 hours a day. Generally it sucked, I'd sooner sleep rough if the weather was survivable.

Honestly I just reread that and you are a fucking mystic visionary of the interweb. Holy crap.

Ok, maybe I'm getting way over my head here because I don't know shit about anarchist theory. Logic is as follows: 1. Power will always be abused. 2. That's why anarchists are anarchists, because there's no possible form of government that can't be completely abusive some of the time at...

Kind of a contradiction there. If you're an anarchist you probably think that any power is subject to abuse no matter who wields it and so you basically seek to be powerless.* But to get that done you have to overpower someone who is trying to overpower you. It's weird. *Caveat: officially...

Chip in the head, huh. That has the potential to go horribly wrong. Of course, like any technology, it can be used for good or evil. Depends on the circumstances and the motivations of the builders. @Anarchist Ron I'm not opposed to weapons, it's just that guns aren't the only form of power...

This is the way, I think. I'm not much of an anarchist but I'm more that than anything else, and when I see this crazy cryptography stuff and anonymity networks and cryptocurrencies it gives me hope that governments are losing this fucking war. Example: Wikileaks. Just a few of those cables...

I had one, got it from widerstand ages ago. It's pretty slim on the practical info but cool nonetheless. There are only a few rideables that differ from the North American network, you could probably just scope them out yourself or ask around at squats if you're in Europe. Wish I still had it...

That sounds like a hell of a trip, I assume from your pic you're talking cycling not motorbikes, did you roll down there from the states or fly and start biking when you were there? What countries? Lots of other cyclist/touring types? Was it easy to hitch with a bike?

Yeah, no doubt, just figured since you didn't mention it specifically it couldn't hurt to bring it up.

50,000 hits of MDMA and a creeping sense of middle-aged guilt, I guess.

PunkTorrents bittorrent protocol, google that shit if you're not aware - it's pretty useful

Fun, safe, explosive. Pick two.

I did a few solo trips, nothing like biking all the way across the states though. I can suggest you get some training in unless you're a pretty strong biker. I did 130 km in a day, thought I was up to it, by 5:00 I was so tired I could barely stand. Doesn't make getting to know a new town very...

Fuck it let's just move to detroit.

That makes sense in the context of monarchies and functioning societies. I can't imagine what apocalypse would leave cities populated and functioning (one or the other but not both for any significant period of time) for anyone to lay siege to. In all likelihood a warlord is going to be on the...

Hey Murt, good rant. People like to pretend they are/were poor for a number of reasons: 1. Every interesting cultural artifact in the world comes from poverty. Rich people contribute nothing, when was the last time you heard "oh shit you gotta hear this track it's the newest thing from...

No offense, dude, but this is exactly the scenario that I think wouldn't work. What about the people that live in the area? Don't you think they'd have something to say about that? And they do live there, some of them for their whole lives, and they'd know the terrain much better than you will...

I guess that depends on the specific conditions of the apocalypse. I doubt the cartels would be in business anymore if the US was suddenly an anarchy. After all, their whole business model is based on the idea that the Gov't will enforce prohibition. I'm not a pacifist. Of course I'd fight...

Just do it now then. The more conflict we have now the closer we get to apocalypse and the closer you get to your dream.

If you have an ipod you can put the entire Wikipedia on it. Before I lost my ipod I was rocking that every day. It's a lot of reading.

You're from Somalia or the north korean demilitarized zone, I assume. You obviously have a lot of experience with lawless societies.

You know what I'm going to do when the shit goes down? Exactly what I'm doing right now, which is pretty much getting to know my neighbours better and trying new things. It's not the capacity to defend yourself and your food cache against hordes of ravenous outsiders, it's about working with...

I know a guy who walked from Nova Scotia to Los Angeles. I don't know if this will inspire you or terrify you but it took him two years.

Just because it was character-forming in a good way for you doesn't mean it won't fuck some other kid up irreparably. In the end though I doubt it really was a good experience for you because you obviously don't have the strength of character to not wish pain and suffering on another human being.

Well, you'll get rides for sure. As for rape and battery I'm sure you'll be fine but there's no way to predict that stuff... as always, safest to travel with a partner, and if you're a male/female team you seem to get the most rides compared to any other combo.

BC is ok as you know, but you gotta be aware there. It's the only place Ive ever been close to being assaulted was in BC... plus there's the whole highway of tears thing which is a bit out of your way but good to know about anyway: British Columbia Highway 16 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia...

Shit dude if yer mom is already driving you around I'm not sure if I have much to teach you.

I'm gonna teach some kid how to stay home and not do shit for a while and then surf the internet a bit... order pizzas and stuff. And how to just sorta watch TV and then go look out the window for a while. They gotta learn somehow. I consider it an honor.

Most of the shit I say in my day-to-day is equally meaningless and distracting. I should get a job at the library too I guess. Come to think of it, most people I know should get jobs at spoon's library.

Punk is merely knup.com.br, but spelled backwards, which is weird because knup is Brazil's finest purveyor of... whatever weird shit knup sells. THE MORE YOU KNOW!

Paige Williams – Journalism, etc. - Finding Dolly Freed - Possum Living Williams wrote a really good article about Dolly Freed and the backstory behind the book.

I read this book by Ranolph Fiennes about walking across Antarctica dragging all their supplies on sleds. Brutal unsupported trip, dangerous, they both lost like 30% of their bodyweight over the course of it. They ate a half a chocolate bar every day. Now I hold that in the back of my mind and...

All I know is that if you make it to South America the buses are fucking cheap, cheap, cheap and go long distances. Like, thirty bucks will take you across Columbia. Twenty bucks will take you all over Bolivia. Can't speak for Central America/Mexico. You might be expected to pay if you hitchhike...

I can imagine less useful weapons, I guess. At least they do something when you're not embroiled in a fight to the death, hey? What knife will help you keep dumpstering juice off your hands? That being said, (and with the caveat that I'm no UFC fighter) it seems like an extra 8oz ain't much...

I made an adze last year out of a favourably bent piece of leaf spring. Ground it down, put a nice workable bevel and sharpened it up but I tossed it because I didn't have a forge to temper it. That firebrick and torch jobbie sounds like just the thing for the amateur blacksmith. What kind of...

You can use green leafy teas like yerba mate. The fastest ciders I've ever made had mate in them. Added benefit of being slightly caffeinated. I've heard nettle is a good complete nutrient but I'm waiting for new spring shoots to come up to try it. B complex is good but expensive. Some yeasts...

I've been making distilling mashes with bakers's yeast. If you let 'em clear for a month or so they're pretty good. Better as vodka, but I have drank a bunch just as wine.

You can't ferment meat because yeast can't metabolize protein. Yeast needs sugars to live, or starches that can be converted to sugars, so that' the problem. I had this conversation with someone the other day about fermenting a box of eggs we found. Someone did tell me about some German beer...
