squatting

Hey Y'all, I hope you're all staying safe and healthy right now but I know this is a very hard time for a lot of folks so you have my sympathies and prayers. While I'm stuck in place and likely not going anywhere for a long while I started to wonder about what cities are the best to be...

I know in a lot of abandoned buildings, there's a power box with no lock. You just take the little piece of red tape out from between the two currents, open up the meter and stuff something in between the dial and the thing that holds it to stop it from rotating, and voila! You have free power...

squat that planet

In 2016, i did a study of heroin use in Vermont for the state Department of Health there. i ended up living in a dirty kid squat in Burlington for the summer after i met a former poster here on the bus, and remarked on his CSX hat, and Crass logo patch. Due to a falling out about funding, the...

I have been leaving the lights off at night for a few days because I got spooked. I won't do that again because I don't approve of what you did with sugar packets in my front yard. However, I'm leaving the empty packets where you left them because these gentrifying assholes have to learn this...

I’m 26, a guy and from NorCal. I don’t or can’t really keep a full time job, and most jobs don’t hire or keep me for long, and any that would I wouldn’t want to do them. I’ve never been homeless but I have considered squatting, moving around, couch surfing, or whatever. I have little to no...

Does anyone have experience with squatting city owned houses? Id like to hear peoples thoughts on their experiences with the ejection process and how long they were able to hold them

My squatting is coming to an end. I can either: turn my squat over to the city, giving me some protection if something happens to the physical structure. Declaring the property vacant would give me some legal protection. Or, instead of declaring the property abandoned, give it over to a...

Where should I go? I'd love to meet other squatters and get a lay of the land, and help with any projects that need being done.

I've been stuck in NYC for the last like 4 years in an apartment. I want to go into the woods for awhile and live off the land, somewhere I'm not going to be bothered by landowners or cops/rangers. I want to be able to build stuff and if I have to worry about rangers kicking me off of state...

Anybody know of any active squats in olympia?

Myself and a small group of folks are interested in putting together an intentional squat for rad/anarcho folks who want to do the damn thing! I am in search of legal advice specific to Texas, anyone with resources they can offer or have leads on, and folx who may want to help/participate in...

As of March 1, I am a squatter. It's not the first time, but the scale of it feels larger because I'm not sneaking around. I've become the default caretaker of a property without permission and this was the first month a rent check wasn't cut. This all started in March (yeah, almost a year ago)...
