hello punx. I make music and I call it "THY COURAGE QUAIL." I have only played a couple shows so far, but they were pretty fun so I am planning some more. while these songs are not punk in genre terms, I do everything myself, so you could say it's got some of that aesthetic going for it...

Damn, I guess quitting an internet forum is kind of like faking your own funeral . . . you get to peek out and hear a bunch of nice things said about you. I second what everyone has already said. More to the point, I think you're overreacting. I haven't witnessed any members of the...

It is worth noting, however, that the author of that article is from South Africa, where sustainability hunting is still practiced among tribes and poaching is a very different issue than it is here.

In my interest to see if anything had been written about ethical poaching, I googled the phrase -- and one of the first results is entitled "Ethical Hunting Versus Poaching." Talk about yer people in glass houses!

It depends on what you mean by "poacher." There's the relatively harmless type who simply hunt bountiful species (such as deer) out of season, on government property, or without a license -- but still do so in a sporting way. I believe there's something to be said for at least considering the...

Sorry, I'll stop!

canada is so awesome you guys

man, I feel much the same way. It's counter-intuitive, because I know a lot of the more self-destructive traveling kids sort of let themselves go whilst on the road -- and then patch up / recuperate in their home-bum spot during the off season. But every time I try taking an off season from...

I heard they started using Giant Squid with x-ray vision to detect riders.

Remember: by pulling a bandana over your face just right, you can trap enough air to breathe for about fifteen hours.

Pretty much every religion is necessarily pro-sex, since procreation (within the confines of marriage of course) means more cult members by birthright. Look at how many poor bastards done got themselves begat in the bible. They never had a chance!

I rode the Pineapple Line for fifteen years and never stopped for water once. Then I punched a hole in a volcano!

I can't believe I've done it... hahaha, too true.

Reading everything that's already been written here sort of takes the wind out of my sails as far as offering my own perspective (no need to be redundant). But I love you all, that was a good read.

In my mind, that's always been the point. Why settle for the accepted reality, the status quo? It's obviously only paying off for a minute percentage at the top (and arguably not working for them, either), so why not change it? Here are the three most basic points all anarchists demand...

Shrimp, it sounds like you're confusing insurrectionist anarchism with anarchism as a whole. As Joe Black stated, "There is a long tradition within anarchism of constructing ideologies out of a tactic. The long and deep involvement of anarchists in insurrections has, not surprisingly, given...

I think this whole argument (like most arguments) can be simplified and summed up by a nice, proverbial hunk of earthy wisdom. In this case, "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem." Problem: Population growth at this rate is unsustainable. Solution: Stop...

I don't keep much in my pockets as I find it uncomfortably bulky, but I wear a utility belt (like batman!) with a variety of pouches, full of everything I could possibly need to survive. Including lighters, change, multitool, compass, tobacco, and a spyglass. Huzzah!

Let's not perpetuate ignorance.

I invented farming! (the primitivists were furious)

{puts you in the "you can't put me in a box!" box} Welcome!

So ... many ... logical fallacies ... can't ... hold them off ... much longer ...

I am not sure how I would feel about that actually . . . the value of anything achieved through segregation is dubious at best. Maybe I would prefer increased dialogue in general? Not a hundred percent certain on this point mind you, I just have an uneasy premonition that the addition of a...

I'm always fascinated by these tests, because I feel like an accurate "diagnosis" of my type might be revelatory and helpful, but I find them difficult to complete to my satisfaction because I'm bipolar. I know they always have a disclaimer about just answering with whatever seems most accurate...

Heh heh heh heh heh. I like you.

HAHA, what the hell.

Sold!

I agree with the substance of your points, and appreciate your saying all of this, because a critique does need to be made. I would just stress that it's not Anarchism which needs a critique, but the punk embrace of Anarchism or, more accurately, Anarchy. I'm sure you already understand this...

LRAD, (Long Range Acoustic Device), VAncouver Police have it, just in time for the winter olympi Also, read up on the science behind it: http://science.howstuffworks.com/lrad1.htm

LRAD, (Long Range Acoustic Device), VAncouver Police have it, just in time for the winter olympi I stared down the LRAD every day in Pittsburgh. There are a few things to know about it: 1) It's essentially got a volume knob, and generally they won't turn the full force on civilian...

I would like to reinstate a post-apocalyptic mail carrier system a la Kevin Costner as The Postman. Homemade postman uniforms = original crusty duds. Postal-apocalypse!

Fair but moot points, in my opinion; I don't consider Crimethinc representative of elegant anarchist philosophy any more than I consider the U.S.S.R. to have been truly communist. It's a mere re-branding of classism & privilege by kids who have read snappy Crimethinc slogans but not "The...

You can go to blue island. . . If you have a boat.

My ma's from Alaska! Fairbanks.

Fancy meetin' you here! I am going to be down in Richmond quite soon I think, we should attempt hanging out again. Only this time, more of the hanging out and less of me wandering around hollywood cemetery on mushrooms. Also, nice hat of plums

Thanks much for the thoughtful suggestions, everyone. The distraction of diligently researching treatments has been somewhat therapeutic in itself, as a reminder that I'm not the first fool in this position.

So, I am a guy who aims for sustainable, independent living as far as I can manage it, and as a result I have been highly resistant to commercial, non-herbal anxiety / depression treatments for as long as shit's been going on in my noggin. But there is a certain level of demented, shaking...

pretty soon I'm going to drill a hole at each end of my hard case, and tie off a length of rope with the knots on the inside of the case, in order to sort of create a functional gig bag type shoulder strap. jury's out on whether it'll work like I imagine, but anything's better than nothin'

camp d-luxe is where it's at. never seen anyone but intentional riders there. RIP joe

See ya'll there! I'll be the one wearing the bandana and the handcuffs.

Mouse, I primarily work on farms as I ramble around, so I've seen a lot of land for sale and worked for a few people who got their land cheap. Part of it is just being in the right place at the right time -- I know someone who got thirty acres of beautiful forest for a song, 'cause she was the...

I think I'm with dan and mouse on this one. While searching a detainee's gear after the detainee states, flat-out, that they don't consent to a search, is not constitutionally legal . . . it has been known to happen on occasion. And when you're in the middle of nowhere with no witnesses, the...

Been to Bodie. Fucking classic ghost town! And that's saying something considering I'm practically living in one.

Yeah, there isn't a whole lot in Los Osos, but in this case that's half the point -- Will Oldham usually goes out of his way to play a smaller, more intimate show in between the big city dates. Last year it was at the Henry Miller Memorial Library in Big Sur -- great venue! -- and this year it...

Hi all, I've been hopping freight, hitching, working on farms and playing music in a loop around the country for the past year, and now I'm staying with friends back where I started -- San Francisco. On March 31st there's a Bonnie 'Prince' Billy show in Big Sur that I've got myself a ticket...

Well hi. Rolled into the lovely town of Savannah, Georgia late last night after a GRUELING series of solo freight hops -- Richmond, VA > Rocky Mount, NC > Florence, SC > Savannah. Met some cool folks in Rocky Mount and two yard workers in Florence gave me water, a ton of Ramen, and a raincoat...
