  • You have no idea the temptation I have to do just that. A satellite connection and a remote job for income and I’d be good. A family member is up in Alaska already, he’s got a plot of land with a natural gas deposit that wasn’t large enough or near enough to a populated area for the US gov to care about. So they’ve got it tapped and have a pretty ideal setup. They bought my grandfather’s tractor a while ago an old restored 1912 John Deere.

    I do enjoy the comforts of living near everything. I’m not sure I could give up having 100s of restaurants to choose from and a dozen or more grocery stores in a 10 mile radius. Or the specialty delis, high speed gigabit, and other comforts of civilization.



  • Dude for real. A cheap bidet attachment for your toilet is the way to go.

    First off, a bidet is better than toilet paper. I’ve been using it for years, and it cleans you 100%. I use basically 1 square of TP to dry myself after, and it’s always completely clean. If you had a bird shit on your arm would you just wipe it off with paper and call it a day?

    I laughed at all my friends who made fun of me for getting one on all my toilets after the great TP shortage of 2021, and a few of them ended up switching over.

    For the apocalypse I have a camping toilet with a foot operated bidet. I mean I already use it when car camping, and I have a hand bidet for backpacking.

    Solar panels are also in play. I also bought a freeze dryer and have about 5 deers worth of freeze dried jerky, and buy and freeze dry on sale fruit and veggies pretty regularly. I try to maintain around a 1-2 year supply of on hand food. A few steel plates, ar-15 pistol, and enough ammo to hold off the upper floor for quite a while too, but that’s another conversation. I’m as ready to go as I can though, let’s do this.








  • Violent anarchists are Libertarians, whom literally state their mission is to remove all government limitations at all costs.

    How Libertarians avoid the anarchist label is beyond me. They’re like weird corporate anarchists, compared to the actual anarchy movement.

    Progressives are people who value the freedom of religion for all people, the freedom to be who you truly are, even if that’s the opposite gender you were born as, and the advancement of human rights on topics concerning body autonomy and well anything humans rights related. We also tend to firmly believe in addressing income inequality, poverty, availability of medical benefits to everyone as a human right, and an end to monopolies and corporate malfeasance.

    I think a lot of conservatives try to paint Progressives as anarchists because we riot. But they ignore the literal mission statements of the right wing which is that smaller government is better and that people should run their lives completely freely. THAT is anarchy my friend. And what that gets us is a dying planet full of pollution with infinitely rising cost of living and slavery to corporations, and we’re dangerously close to that now. You’d better hope like hell Progressives win this fight, because everything you enjoy, everything that’s good in your life, is a result of Progressive policy. Or are you actually going to sit here and argue policies like Reaganomics are a good thing despite almost 60 years of data to the contrary?
