I wonder how often it is that someone comes to the point where they want to just say FUCK IT and go off and become an anonymous vagrant ( Read more... )

Y'know what? I get it, I really do. I woke up this morning with a vague (well, not-so-vague) feeling of FUCK IT, too. And what I did was, I stayed in the got-damn bed. I pulled the covers over my head, closed my eyes, and went back to sleep. Well, I did get up to pee and call work to tell them, "Hey, FUCK IT," and then went back to bed. Until after lunch. Granted, nothing was really any better when I finally got up, circumstances had not magically realigned themselves in my favor, but...I sorta felt a little better physically anyway. I guess I just needed to rest. Life gets pretty fucking insane sometimes.

Indeed it does. When the temptation to live as homeless becomes overwhelming, that's pretty insane. :P

I think about this kind of thing ALL THE TIME. Especially how, if you could get it to work properly, communism is the best idea in the world. But like you said, people mess it up. Some ass always has an inferiority complex and feels the need to beat his chest and point to his Beemer or something as asinine. I really hate hippies, but some of their ideals do appeal to me. Just not the 'let's sit around and beat bongos and not even be productive enough to feed ourselves,' ones. There's even an online guide I found to being voluntarily homeless. I could try to find it if you're interested...

Of course! I am always interested in new reading. Even if I never actually live that way it is good to educate yourself.

Thanks. From a quick scan that has more than just what it advertises. This could be useful.

There's a lot in this post that I'd like to link to from techipcom, would you mind making it public? Failing that, would you mind if I cut and paste some of it there? I could cut and paste the whole thing and not say where I got it from, or I could leave out the last three paragraphs, or something.

Since the entry already public, and since its fantastic, I'd like to make a similar request. Can I post this to powerswitch, please? I found this from techipcom.

Good call.
So much paperwork, idiocy, and greed in society.
