I thought this was debunked as fear mongering?

+1 for vesper, very interesting world. I liked the story.

Then you don’t know cars as well as you say you do, because you can check for a whole lot more than that without pulling the engine lmao. Maybe stick to the dealership if you don’t feel like you can effectively evaluate it’s condition.

Learn about cars first and it isn’t a gamble.

Yaris ftw

Not for everybody. If you’re clever enough you can work around every item you listed though.

Look into trailers, campers, shed, tiny home, and military surplus tents. Be careful not to get too into the Instagram version of the “vanlife” lifestyle, it is trickier that it seems in the photos and IMO vans suck cos you don’t need engine problems on your home.

I lived in a camper trailer because I got it for the equivalent of 6 months rent and I knew if I lived in it any longer it would technically a net gain, and I was able to still sell it after. Two years in that thing with Midwest winters lmao.

If you are lucky, you can find a rural property sold as undeveloped with a very old or abandoned building that you’d be able to fix up. I would avoid the West, unless you have a foolproof water source.

We have the entire knowledge of the collective human history at our fingertips. People built shit by winging it for the majority of human history. You’d have been a god among men 200 years ago. Fuck some shit up. Fail fast and fail forward

1. Lower standards
2. Buy shitty small rural house built nearly 200 years ago
3. Spend any and all free time & money learning the skills & buying the tools to strip it down and rebuild it. All of it is online. Do it quietly and you won’t have to pull permits. Hold yourself to a higher standard than what a permit will allow and you’ll be fine.
4. Continue to invest in yourself and your skills. You will become a rich person if you do this, if not in money, then knowledge. The earlier you can do this, the more value will compound off of your skillset.

It’s not fun but it’s possible for myself, born 98. Got my little slice and the sunsets and stars are sure damn pretty out in the boonies. Gotta deal with the rednecks & general small mindedness though.

It is so sad we only got one season. That show was too ahead of its time, it would be an absolute hit if it came out today

It takes revenue away from a system that perpetuates it.

Martin Starr kicks ass

No, but it will help. Do you currently have a plan if you were unable to purchase food at the store?

Spax torx?

What’s that?

You’re failing to acknowledge why someone who would be more concerned about a bigger number. 60 is bigger than 10 sir, and we should focus on 60, as it would have a greater effect for our effort

No, it’s like saying garbage trucks haul more garbage than normal vehicles. Because while people may transport trash in their vehicles, dump trucks were created for the specific purpose of hauling trash.

Why is it controversial to point out that pitbulls bite more because they were bred for it?

My Australian shepherd herds things, never taught them that. Retrievers retrieve things. Pitbulls maul things. That’s what they were all bred for.

Now if you really want to do some research look up how much money is spent on pro - Pitbull lobbying and misinformation

Don’t use Wikipedia as your source, that’s rule number one. Look at the cdc

Dude had a clear idea he was expressing. The world isn’t a marvel movie, there are no good guys or bad guys, only subjective observations of two different people with different motivations. Depending on how you interpret the situation, you could come to the conclusion that retaliation was inevitable and not have empathy for the perpetrators. You can also hold the opinion that killing sucks, regardless of the circumstances despite this. Making this a good vs evil thing frames this entire complex situation as much more simple than it is, and could be a harmful lens to view the world with.
