Almost no chance the land is owned. You don’t buy lots in most trailer parks, you rent them. And that trailer is worth about 3grand on the open market (which he could never afford to tow off the lot, negating any value it had), has no heat or AC, the floor has failed in the bathroom, and the walls are starting to bulge from mould. But the lot rental is cheap, and the trailer was left behind when pa drank himself to death at 37.

Let’s not besmirch the venerable shack in the woods.

Effin eh, cotton. Effin eh.

Counterpoint: This could very well be a picture of me from any snowstorm in Calgary when I was a teenager who’d do anything for weed. But there would be 3-4 times as much snow.

Sadness.

Agreed.

E is for pants.

You’re right. I should have said ‘akin to slavery’.

No gods. No masters.

Slavery is wrong. Forced service is slavery.

Thank you for taking the time to type up both of these.

just as a counterpoint, I live in the forest and it would take a very, very serious problem for me to even consider moving to a small town. nonetheless a city.

we lived in a bunch of different countries and a bunch of different cities over the last 15 years and I intended to never live in another city again.

having the forest friends follow me around as I do morning chores is how life was meant to be. if I could just find a way to stretch that into my whole day I’d be the happiest man on Earth.

The problem with this is that a lot of these people have been shitting on their neighbors and their entire neighborhoods for decades because they think they are the special snowflake who can survive anything by themselves and don’t need any community.

When those fucks are also broke and they come asking for help a lot of us are going to tell them to get fucked.

Those of us who’ve been building intentional communities and support systems will be a little better off, but we’re going to be wasting a lot of time trying to fight off raiders from the aforementioned group above. thankfully they’ll probably be coming single file because they won’t help each other either.

This is a take. Not a good take. But a take nonetheless.

[Edit to add - Do you just ignore what people say to you, or ask you, and toss out more bullshit in meatspace conversations? Or is that just how it works for you online?]

You JUST commented that we could see how genx is the same as boomers by looking at their track record when they take power.

Then you state that genx never took power, and are insignificant.

???

When did genx assume power?

last I looked most politicians are still white-haired boomers.

Jesus Christ, if you didn’t think your company knew if you were in one building or another before today, you’re a fucking idiot.

Are you fucking high? His suicide note spefically calls out capitalism and its impact on making art.

This was the movie Caught Stealing. Pretty good flick if you can stomach a lot of violence.
