Yup, a very real possibility to take into consideration, in Big Sur too, and some other pocket areas, just be smart, and if you find some plants, turn around and walk the way you came. Not only is it the people who own the land, but it's been a big and fast growing problem that the Mexican...
Yeah, I'd be down to help out with projects, I have similar plans of my own, and am sure there's several people here that do as well, maybe we can start a network or something. Kind of hard to make a commitment to live with folks you've never met before though, of course. Start learning...
Civilization, as has been stated, is generally the rise of dense centralized populations (urbanization, cities) dependent upon intensive agriculture. All those things you mentioned are culture, and have existed in some form or another since probably the dawn of man, but the extreme complexity...
Well, wanting the collapse of industrial civilization and thinking it's imminent are two different things. I think we have other threads here for the discussion of whether civilization is "good" or "bad" so I'll try to keep it simple and on topic here. In the big picture, you can't argue that...
The Free Land of Natural Integration is a fledgling, safe nation, notable for its strong anti-business politics. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral...
If you search, like yahoo shopping or something, you can find a kershaw for just a little more than the Gerber. Gerber's quality is shit now. The Kershaw is a quality saw and not that expensive.
You can tie paracord around the handles of the sabre saw and throw it over a branch to cut up high, but its a pain in the ass and you pretty much have to stand right under it, which isnt very safe. I like the folding saw because its really easy to use and cuts fast, especially the kershaw, which...
It all depends on who you associate with. I guess its easier for me to avoid because I'm older and don't look like your typical traveler kid, but I come across the kids you're talking about in my travels, I just ignore them. I prefer camping out to squats, which helps alot too. Hopefully you and...
Nice! Only one of my grandmothers spoke it, came over from Romania. I asked my dad for something cool to say, he told me "zy nischit azoi klieg:" "don't be so smart." That's the most appropriate of his limited Yiddish vocabulary:D
Thanks for the info barbuchon! I'm actually considering the Alaska fishing thing, and thought it would be cool to hit the harvest on my way back down to the states.
I think I'm going to read The Road; it's just sitting there, and the only two other books I've got on me right now is a western tree indentification field guide, and a book on Pacific Ocean fishing.
Stop over-intellectualizing their overintellectualization Cap! nah, I'm just playing, you're right on.
There is a physical sexual binary, through culturization we have been raised to regard gender as binary, but where they want to open people's minds to gender multiples, I'm saying forget all...
Ha! Maybe. I understand what they're trying to do, and it's admirable, but I think some basic respect, compassion and tolerance is more genuine and beneficial than so many definitions, divisions, isms, etc. The problems they address are mostly socially constructed, and it seems like they're...
Seems like you're living the dream.
I was an automotive technician making decent money, could've had a pretty good life by societal standards, but it had no appeal to me, my heart wasn't in any of it. I'll save y'all the long, twisty, whirlwind of events that pushed me out, but basically, I...
That's great you want to teach what you've learned! My hope has been that as I gain skills, I'll be able to teach them, because I want more good people to know these skills so we can start moving back to the land, and I want to remove those prohibitive barriers, mainly money. I don't have much...
I'll quote it just in case he changes it someday and then this doesn't make any sense to the thread:
"They can see no reason not to steal, lie, destroy things, and generally act like a jackass. There were people who did this sort of thing back in the day, too, but back then they were outcasts...
workshare program, I'll be hittin 'em up, the site says they need the help. Might be able to go for free.
This is the first year, but it looks like people involved with Echoes in Time and some other people in the primitive skills world are involved with this one, so it should be pretty cool...
There's much that can be said. Freemasonry is a fraternal oraganization that uses the symbolism of ancient stone masons to impart moral lessons and "make good men better." The history of the organization goes back several hundred years, though is rooted in antiquity. Many people believe Masons...
I don't know, maybe it's just the downside of security culture, or probably its just me (too quiet and introverted), but it seems like there's too much ego with alot of these kids, another scene. Maybe I'll go again next year, earlier so I can actually catch the workshops.
Man, everytime I have a lucid dream I get so excited that I'm having one I snap out of it.
I used to have this recurring dream:
I'm standing on a beach, its a beautiful sunny day, just watching families have picnics, kids playing, etc. just a nice day and I feel good and very peaceful. All of...
Handstand pushups, dips, hindu pushups, pushups, pull ups, chin ups, one leg squats, squats, burpees, leg lifts, crunches, high jumps, jump rope, stretching, yoga, etc...
That sounds pretty cool. I'm glad someone out there is fightin fer all those freedoms they hate us fer ;) Iran definitely needs it, I've met some Iranians who say we don't even realize how divided the country is, how much the younger generation yearns for freedom and that even the reports we get...
yup. wait, who are YOU?!?! I saw that funny grin on your face while I handed you a stack of cardboard as you flew past on that Arkansas bound doublestack. Looked kind of like an FBI smile.
Oh yeah, so how did you find this? It's kind of a trip to me that I ask a simple question about internet privacy on a traveler forum, and someone comes out of nowhere to help out. The Internet is a funny place.
