    I think the algorithm has noticed you, recommended you on my feed. They know I like small channels on the rise, seeing them grow fast is fun. This stuff is too nerdy to get huge but you'll be a solid niche in the whole sociology\economics\etc community with this level of consistent clarity. Subbed for sure. Thanks, be well :)

    I've been living as a professional homeless person for years, it's the best. I'm semi-homeless, never sleeping on the streets. I always camped in the forest or on a friend's property or in a vehicle while traveling. Like right now I am sleeping in an unheated storage bay behind a house. I'm renting the space for $200\month. I could use the bathroom inside but prefer to go poop on newspaper while pissing in a milk jug and wrap it up like a burrito to bring to the compost pile and close the loop on the embodied resources in my food. I shower and do laundry and hang out inside during the day or in my car. Working part time at a super easy cashiering job a few miles away and going back to working as a gardener in the spring. Got a very busy season set up because I want to buy some raw land to plant nut and fruit trees and make gardens and share the food and teach volunteers how to garden in harmony with the natural systems around them. It used to be about retreating from society, now I want to create special moments for people and light the fire for gardening in their hearts. It scratches a deep itch in all people to be natural beings, to work with place and create abundance to meet our needs. It stands in deep contrast to the exploitation structure we have now in this expansionist economy profit-madness capitalism mind-virus whatsamajig. Can't rebel against the machine if it provides for all your needs. Hunger is the best sauce. We need healthy hardships in our life, like being hungry and cold and working our bodies hard, it creates satisfaction. Instead, we have a constant mental\emotional load, mid-grade fight or flight response all the time and we aren't fighting or flighting, we just sit there and endure it.
