I know that we have, throughout history, assigned unknowns as supernatural occurrences.

And I don’t think we know everything yet.

So yes? That doesn’t mean the supernatural things are supernatural., just that they exist, we don’t understand them yet.

Axe-a-lot-ls* 😉

Unless you have unlimited wealth I wouldn’t go with a horse unless you can board it yourself. Otherwise you’re just leasing and will miss out on most of the bonding that makes up a large part of the horse relationship. It’s all the cost and then some for a third of the reward.

I LOVE IT

Do the bots at least use AI to chat? Because that’s going to be better than the one word answers I get from the real people.

25 years ago I was writing code in a paper notebook, sometimes while riding the bus. The only computer access was at college and it was easier to work through the code on paper and then quickly transcribe it once I got on campus.

Yeah, things are a bit more complicated now, but in other ways they are sooooo much easier. The fact that people are using chatGPT to ‘program’ is just crazy from my perspective.

A good bug net and a tarp are going to be just as effective as a modern tent, and breathe better.

No. Maybe better than a cheap tent from Walmart.

Don’t buy cheap tents or sleeping bags and take care of them.

Vegetarian and ‘anti-establishment’ for 25+yrs

Work is hard. I’ve worked for souless corporations, it’s hard not to. Sometimes you just have to be servant class and have no other option. Just be sure that you are taking money from them without giving them any excess effort. You can always work towards other opportunities. If you want to do something else, learn to do it. You can learn so many things for free. I just recently accepted a new position with a local company that shares my values. Most of the skills that got me there were things I learned on my own over the last decade. I didn’t go to school for this, nor do I have any directly comparable job experience. Before my last corporate hustle I had a long term job with a local non-profit for many years. I also did not start that position by having the necessary experience. Don’t lose hope, there are always better opportunities in the future.

I control how I spend my money. If I don’t like a company or product I don’t give them any money. Sometimes that means I spend more elsewhere. Sometimes I just have to give up something. I do allow for guilty pleasures occasionally (chocolate).

My grocery bill is minimal because I don’t eat meat, I don’t eat a lot of processed food and I don’t over-eat. I also grow a lot of food (this time of year half or more of my meal ingredients come out of the garden).

The most important thing about HOW I LIVE LIKE THIS?

I don’t judge other people who can’t.

It requires some sacrifice and not everyone can handle that. But I do encourage everyone to try, even a little. If every single person put in effort to be 10% “better” the world would be much better.

I go to sleep at 1 (plus socks, beanie, and sometimes a hoodie)

I wake up at 20

Sometimes I wake up warm and strip a layer or two off. But I’ve been like this my whole life so I usually don’t even wake up when clothes start coming off.

I don’t sleep-walk, I sleep-strip.

And I’m VERY careful about where I fall asleep.

As a single guy who lived with a married couple, I can say it’s awesome and doesn’t have to be sex related.

It cut down on cost of living and made everything easier. A little awkward when they bicker and didn’t always enjoy playing the marriage counselor role. But overall it was great.

I think it also worked because sex wasn’t part of the relationship.

I usually refer to myself as Cascadian

Everything is ‘2 weeks’. It’s the only time frame he gives. Probably read somewhere that the news cycle is only 2 weeks so he thinks everyone will forget by then. (They will.)

All 3 pixels?

So you’re saying it comes with clowns in it?

This is where Trident killers come in handy. Counts as a player kill and if you enchant it you don’t have to drop as far.

I’d be interested in a bedrock RP light server. All the interesting ones I found in the past were Java based because mods used to enhance the RP aspects.

Or even an adult based server with real enforced rules. I have a life and no interest in dealing with literal children or coming on for a few hours of my weekend to find all of my work demolished because some idiot got bored.

Goods Unite Us is another similar app, showing which companies donate to political parties. It does have some paywall issues but it’s better that nothing.

I left during the first mass exodus. I miss the large active communities and the wealth of knowledge.

But I don’t eat meat, I don’t wear name brand clothing, I don’t give evil corporations any more money to than is absolutely necessary (we all need gasoline), and I DON’T GO BACK TO REDDIT.

We could always eat the rich.

Regenerative Agriculture / Permaculture

If you plan to lease out to a farmer, find one that won’t fill it with herbicides and pesticides. And maybe look to only lease part of it while you work to recover other parts.

I’m looking to buy land that needs to be recovered and have the budget that will likely lead me to a place like this that doesn’t have direct road access. Good luck!
