But I don’t know… Relying on other people take away a lot of the experience.
I had to rely too every month on trips to buy food and I didn’t like at all that I couldn’t be self sufficient. But at least it was my money.
Plus, the fear. Just going into town one a month was terrible. I can’t imagine him going to the camps 40 times a year. He mentions how much of a toll it took on him and I can imagine. But doing it that often? That’s a massive will to survive. I would give up. I can take what nature throws at me, but humans are unpredictable and dangerous. It would be just constant suffering and anxiety.




Yup. I used to to think that future generations would look at our car culture the way we look at slavery. Destroying the planet for profit, comfort and laziness. Then the battery revolution happened and if anything the laziness got even worse.
Even vehicles that used to be prohibitive are now used more then the better option, like electric scooters, bicycles, etc. I see a lot more electric bicycles on the road now than proper ones. And most of them teenagers, so that’s not even the usual excuse of *it’s replacing a car " because they can’t drive, it just added more vehicles, just unlicensed ones.
But it makes people feel good with hypocrisy to pretend that they are doing something good, without really making any effort or sacrifice, except spending more money and consuming more.
It’s our idea of making a difference. Consuming.
