Rest well <3

Newspaper is a fantastic insulator. It's lightweight and it's free. If you need a few degrees extra protection, line your coat, pants, shoes, sleep bag, anything at all with a few pages. You'll feel like a jackass the first time you do it, but you'll stop feeling like a jackass when you see how...

Nice to meet ya, Teeth! Good luck out there, and i hope you enjoy your stay around here!

Everyone get your tickets now so you can get your refunds when they cancel it in a few months :P

did he get jumped by the pigs or by a driver? if he's still in the area and needs to get somewhere, im heading into the city again tomorrow. dm me if yall need.

We can throw down our shovels and go on the bum New introdruction metric, just post in this thread with the next lyric <3

Look at stale foreclosures that havent been sold to a private owner, or look for listings of bank-owned properties in your area. A cursory google search of where you're at shows it's a bit tourist-y with lots of state park land -- That usually means foreclosures get snatched up pretty fast, but...

I cant wait to get a back patch with Bernie Sanders face on it that says "To heck with society, to heck with law an order" around it

Hope you don't die for Exxon, and I hope you don't kill any brown children for them either.

Welp, there goes my next few paychecks

If I had that much time to plan that long of a trip, under the most ideal conditions of having the time here's what I would do: Plan an A route and a B route, one being an ideal route northern route and one skewed south of your ideal route because most of the big potential detours look like...

In a bad spot but got plenty of litter? Here's an easy chain crochet using plastic bags as a sleep mat. Bonus points, throw this whole thing in a bin bag lined with newspaper and you've got a pretty cozy thermal sleep mat!

Holy shit, Varukers is still a thing? That alone is worth price of admission. Damn!

this is the first time I've seen this thread and I need it to be at the top of the roll for every other new-ish member, cause holy shit from page 1 to the bottom it's all still relevant

500 a month in savings is a ridiculous amount even if you're steadily employed. Trying to get 100 travelers to do anything is already enough like herding cats, let's not turn this into a high fantasy of 100 people somehow getting solid above living wage jobs with 500 a month in disposable income.

Sorry to hear about your situation. That sounds really rough. With an old dog like that, you're probably gonna want to stick to ride shares and hitching. And stay away from Rainbow if you don't know your way around yet. Easy entry, but greenhorns are a mark for scams in that community in the...

Good shit right here. Get it while you can, though. No way this policy lasts more than a few months.

on my first round test for a similar thing (mentioned above) with referral/invite codes, this security measure was bypassed with a "cop" (in actuality, a friend acting as a cop would in order to test this feature) gaining physical access to the phone of a user. That "cop" then sent an invite...

Waze is a little different because it's reactive to real-time police initiatives in a way that prior to Waze was reserved for people who had the money to install a scanner or radar alert in their car. The nature of Waze is that, it responds to how police change, police don't change in response...

I very strongly prefer to keep information like this as word-of-mouth only and not even share it online. When a spot, scam, loophole, or patrol gets blown up for everyone to see, it gets fixed up REAL fast and stops being relevant. Your app will be racing against people whose living it is to...

you can get direct-from-warehouse sheets of the stuff for about 40-55 USD here: The Foam Factory, Packaging Foam, Poly Foam - https://www.thefoamfactory.com/packagingfoam/polyfoam.html they also have different sleep-specific styles for VERY cheap here: foam mattress slow recovery, memory foam...

A bit south of where I'm at, but if you're headed west make sure to stop in Bloomington/Normal, IL - lots to do, friendly college town, decent bar and music scene, easy lodging

There are multiple wildfires throughout near-residential and residential areas in N. LA right now and the heat map for potential affected zones stretches clear across the middle of California. From south LA to the Bay through Sacramento up to Redding. That's tens of thousands of square miles...

I'm trans and there's no way in fuck I could beat any MMA fighter in a fight under any circumstances. The question asker is not trans, and there's no way in fuck he could beat any MMA fighter in a fight. The great equalizer in competition is discipline. Not genitals. Also, bathrooms are for...

She/Her/They/Them I am trans, femme, and nonbinary.

aw, my first negative react was for calling a slur a slur. I'd be sad if I weren't so proud of my otherwise completely positive karma on this forum 💋

Please do <3 <3 <3

This word is mostly a word used today in pornography that fetishizes the freakishness of the "chick with a dick" having sex. It's exploitative as fuck, but beyond that, it's something that most of us (for real, MOST trans people) have heard in a hateful way thrown at us at some point in our...

I've been bad about checking back on this thread, I've got a bit of catch-up to do. A lot of this has already been addressed, but re-stating a bit won't hurt nobody. The issue of "They" being a misgendering term relies almost entirely upon the speaker not shifting this to "he" or "she" when...

100% of the time, yes. That's a word I'd much prefer I only hear other trans people use in reference to each other, and even then only in a very friendly way. Non-trans people should not be using this word.

Honestly, what's confusing? The way I write is really backwards to some people, I get that, so maybe it's just something I can rephrase or try another route on? I'd really like to foster understanding moreso than just let people be confused.

Emma was a really friendly, welcoming, and supportive person in the midwest-to-south folk punk and travel circuit. She was a good friend to those of us who knew her, and honestly still a good friend to those just passing through. Amazing sense of humor, constantly shitposting and making people...

Likely gonna be something in Indiana before that, too. Hopeful I can make it out to both. 4loko wont ever go down the same, RIP edit: i just noticed you included a spaghetti tacos pic <3 <3 <3

For what it's worth, I never was a big Ani DiFranco fan, but i do get the reference :P

That was my own fault in poor contextual editing, @Engineer J Lupo -- I absolutely did mean to mark that as paraphrasing and not a direct quote from you. That was supposed to be more like, this is how that sounds to me, not this is what you said exactly. My apologies for that. Which, no, I...

Thanks for reading it! <3 I'm happy it came across as informative and not just ranty, and I appreciate you taking the time to put yourself in another's shoes even though it's not easy. Honestly, I love this. This is a really nice simple analogy. This is a wonderful community in a place where I...

Oh shit, I meant for this to be in general, not politics & Anarchism. Could a mod kindly migrate it?

Okay folks. So, in another thread there was some pretty good and necessary discussion regarding pronouns, correct and incorrect use when referring to trans/non-binary people, how that impacts us, and the importance of using correct social markers when interacting with each other. Given how...

Oogle Cat was fun as hell, not sure if i would have gone through all that trouble for it though. RIP your bike, glad you made it!

Thank you for posting this. Will was a good friend, and it's broken my heart to see his work erased.

the next male who starts talking about men going their own way I will personally beat

Landscaping is the worst. That shit ate my legs and hands. Money was right, though. My most regrettable injury was from when I was a kid in scouts and a friend dared me to cannonball off of a stack of firewood onto the sidewalk. Now I can't feel my left knee. Oops!

Oh man I can't wait to see a ban tag on @PotBellyFatGuy after THAT doozy

one very brief stint to Toronto, but it didnt feel noteworthy enough to extend the map

@Phuen , You've had 9 posts and none of them have been worth reading. Please, for the love of god, let post #10 be "Goodbye I will never log into this site again"

remember when OP specifically said they didnt want your shitty advice, broman?

I've been on and off traveling for a bit over a decade. Mostly freight and hitching. Chronically homeless since I was a lil queer teenager, now less often homeless but still occasionally. Settled down a few years back when I had my kiddo, he's 3 now and is the absolute love of my life. Probably...

I've been assaulted while hitching once by a stranger, but generally speaking when this has happened to me it has been people I know who did it. Especially after I'd come out as trans, men who were close to me must have seen that as some kind of an "in." You aren't alone, you'll never be alone...
