So, an east coast thing would work best for me, especially late summer.
There’s free camping in WV’s Dolly Sod’s that I have stayed at before. This is the dot I have saved on my map:
39°03'26.8"N 79°17'05.0"W

There was no posted signage. I stayed for five...
Yea, feels more like Chris is a cautionary tale about not trying to go blind into the wild and expect nature to provide. Especially alone.
We formed tribes and community pretty early in our evolution, there’s a reason that working together has made humans the dominant species. Going it alone...
I have spent the last year and some change living out of my 2008 E150. It was a single owner with no prior accidents and came into my ownership with only minor superficial rust that was easy to spiff up.
Learning to drive a van takes a little but after a month it’s natural (especially living...
I use the Tinklebell and I can easily get it in place with my pants on my hips. I have to unzip my fly and lower my pants slightly but if you’re looking at me from the back it looks like standard guy pee pose.
Some monks in Buddhism kind of do this
they have a robe with layers and use the robe as a tent. They carry a bowl and a razor otherwise. In some countries they have like a parasol with a bug net. You can get down to very little but I think unless you’re home bumming it’s pretty rough
The thing with the self inflating ones is that they will take up more space than the 100% air inflated pads. Although they usually provider a thicker feeling and are good if you sleep on your side. I have a Thermarest Apex and it’s great (although I don’t use it much). If you get an all air one...
So I think we have a lot of talk about essentials
what’s your favorite thing that’s not essential, a quality of life or luxury thing?
I really like the squeeze bottle portable bidet I got for like $10. Keeps me feeling clean and keeps my toilet paper use low.
Didn’t read your entire thing because a lot of it seems to be addressing cis people and I’m tired and at work. I will say that I use they/them and have for years now.
Misgendering, past a certain point (like not being told) does cause pain, the same way being called slurs is painful. I like...
Plains as in large flat areas of land.
Where can I go in the US to find plains with no people? Not exactly desert (although feel free to mention some if you think they're good to check out) as I'm looking for something more temperate and less full of snakes and scorpions. Just wide open space...
Quit most drugs a few years back, had a few relapses, been pretty good for the past year and some change. Still struggle with cannabis and planning to quit buying again soon.
One worry I have about travel is being put in more drug culture spots.
Anyone used one of those things (funnels, cups, whatevers) that let you pee while standing with a vagina?
For example: Amazon link
There are cheaper ones and some more expensive ones.
How're people's success rates with these things? I've just been squatting during day hikes and there's a...
Mine is 2009! Honestly can’t remember if my family bought it used or new. I’ve never really tracked MPG, so I’d have to look it up. Not as amazing as a Prius not as bad as a big RV.
TPMS light has been on for months, recently had something pop off the engine which was apparently an easy fix...
Anyone live out of a Honda Odyssey? I’ve been driving one since high school and it’s a 2009 model at 160k miles and still going. Although it’s clearly at the end of its days after a bunch of accidents. Still works and I drive it daily but it’s a senior now and ongoing repairs are going to start...
I'm currently on insurance so this isn't a right now issue as much as it could be an issue and as someone who's post op, staying on hormones is important for a broader range of functioning.
I know Fenway and I think they do provide free care if you can't afford it.
@scutellaria
Hm. Follow up, related somewhat, do you know methods for getting hormones with little or exactly no money and no insurance? Are there any groups in the US that enable this?
Had anyone who gets HRT through Planned Parenthood been able to travel to different PP clinics in different states and still be “in the system” such that it’s a short checkup to get a new script?
I’ve never been to PP so I don’t know how it works. So if someone could also explain that I’d...
Hello!
Found this site after DuckDuckGoing illegal camping and it seems awesome. Especially because I just read about the squatting scene in Vancouver in Anarchy Works, so really excited to engage with this community. Anarcho-Communist/Pacifist here. Avid memer. Pronouns are they/them/their's...
