Hi, recently got into this subject after watching one too many PlanetWild, JustDiggIt, Andrew Millison, Leaf of Life Etc. videos but it had me seriously considering the following idea:

Why not buy dirt cheap (relatively, <$5k per acre) desert land out in SoCal/Mojave desert somewhat close to civilization that is on a gentle gradient, not too far down the watershed to prevent flash floods, and then restore the land to productivity? Using bunds, swales, and seeds. It seems land prices are less afflicted by being remote and moreso their lack of water/vegetation.

I would imagine that if it was this easy, some would have already done it, but it seems all of these land restoration projects are done in areas that are outside of the US. I can imagine if this goes right then in the future, investment companies and funds would be buying up unproductive land and valleys to turn them into income producers or selling the land? So why not do it myself now?

Like it seems too simple to be true? Any hill billy with a tractor and a modified farming plow could do hundreds of acres per day and turn nearly the desert entire green.

Hello comrades, it's time for our first discussion thread for The Will to Change! Please share your thoughts below on the first two sections of the book. There's quite a lot to talk about between hooks' discussion of masculinity discourse within feminist circles, the ways both men and women uphold patriarchy, and the near universal experience of men being forced to suppress their rich emotional worlds from a young age. I'll be posting my thoughts in a little bit after I'm done with work.

If you haven't read the book yet but would like to, its available free on the Internet Archive in text form, as well as an audiobook on Youtube with content warnings at the start of each chapter, courtesy of the Anarchist Audio Library, and as an audiobook on our very own TankieTube! (note: the YT version is missing the Preface but the Tankietube version has it) Let me know if you'd like to be added to the ping list!

Our next discussion will be on Chapters 2 (Understanding Patriarchy) and 3 (Being a Boy), beginning on 12/4.

Thanks to everyone who is or will be participating, I'm really looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts! feminism

When you administer naloxone to someone who’s addicted to opioids, they experience something called precipitated withdrawal. One of the symptoms of precipitated withdrawal is you shit your pants, a lot.

To spare you the unnecessary details, my $80 awesome as fuck sleeping bag bravely gave his life.

And I might need to disinfect and scrub the front passenger seat of my car.

I’m not steamed about any of this. But I need to take a nap and I have no blanket or anything.

One of my friends is kinda traumatized and I want to buy us dinner or something—some kind of thing the three of us can do to take the edge off.

I also want to kick some money to the guy whose life we saved. He’s homeless just like we are. But he’s obviously in bad shape right now and I want to give him even just a thin ray of sunshine. Even if it’s just $20 or something.

DM me for my CashApp, Venmo, and/or PayPal.

She's hoping that you'll trip over her. If you go around, she'll lunge out at your ankles. Loads of fun either way!
