Aaron Fletcher has grazed his sheep and lived off the land as a traveling shepherd for 12 years. He calls it guerrilla grazing (a step above guerrilla gardening, he says) and he lets his sheep graze - with permission- public parks and side lots. Homeless by choice, he offers his services to small farms in exchange for food or a place to stay (though half his calories come from his sheeps’ milk).
With a tiny metal cart home pulled by his sheep, he has a bed, a refrigerator/evaporative cooler, a shower (he uses a pesticide sprayer to pump up the water pressure), power (solar panel), sun oven, a mailbox stove for heat, bicycle tire wheels and a corrugated plastic roof.
Fletcher makes cheese and butter from his sheep milk and forages for seeds, fruits, vegetables and herbs. He’s created a map for foragers in his region. He makes some money with his scythe business - cutting noxious weeds for locals -, but he insists he’s not interested in making money and just hopes to serve as an example for other homeless interested in guerrilla grazing.

Just a man and his sheep wives livin off the land.
and I wonder about my neighbors even though I don't have them
but they're listening to every word I say
Organichu have you seen that Brian Laundrie is now also missing
Officers eventually cleared protesters and media off the lawn, but they remained huddled outside, at times chanting things like, "We want answers," and "Dirty Laundrie."

That dude lives a sheep lifestyle that is not for me but he seams very happy. Good for him.
I uh like sleeping in a nice bed every night. I had a discussion with one of my neighbors who wants to backpack across Europe next year after high school and stay in hostels. And I was like dude, stay in hotels. I then explained the difference between hostels and hotels. And he uh decided to look into hotels.

Aren't hotels about 10 times as expensive?

like, you share rooms but is there more to it? Also aren't hostels like only for young people or something?

Depends on the hotel, and the hostel. But he had luck finding hotel rooms for 50-60 Euros a night. And the hostels he was looking at were 35-40 Euro a night. And it made his mom happy.

(i've never been in a europe)
According to an expert (Rick Steves) age cutoff hostels are rare:
Don't rule out "youth" hostels just because, by every standard, you're older than young. If you're alive, you're young enough to hostel just about anywhere in Europe (hostels with age cutoffs are rare).
I know people who stayed in hostels and it seemed fine. Some stories seemed great.
I won't stay in a motel and I am suspicious of anything less than $150 / night unless I feel we got a great deal.
So if I'm dropping $x grand on a trip to anywhere I'm staying somewhere nice i dont have to wait for rando eurotrash to finish fucking before i can shit.

The hotels didn’t seem scrub tier for 60 a night, but it’s likely because of Rona they weren’t booking up. The only place he had problems finding a good price was Berlin. That hotel seamed a bit sketch.
I’ve traveled for business a lot and generally stay in sub 100 hotels because that’s the per diem. Hilton of Marriott business hotels are fine. Hampton inn is the Hilton one I usually shoot for. Even on vacation I’m like govvy contractor rate plz.
I had to replay this about 5 times to figure out what the hell happened. Holy shit.

Hello my friends!
How it's going for you all?
Here it's going fine. We got federal elections finising up at the same time as municipal elections are starting.. so we got a LOT of signs on our roads right now!
(Note : In Québec, it's not often than you'll see a sign on a private propety. Here, the campaigns are 95% done on public land. You will often see one lamppost with 4-5 signs on it!)
"You won't destroy us, You won't destroy our democracy. We are a small but proud nation. No one can bomb us to silence. No one can scare us from being Norway. This evening and tonight, we'll take care of each other. That's what we do best when attacked'' - Jens Stoltenberg
Do you watch Letterkenny in Quebec and 1-10 how accurately do they portrait it
Edit - To be fair, quebecois aren't presented as the most trustworthy sorts.
W-What?
I must be missin a joke here or somethin' :biggrin:

I'm struggling to find something good but Deathloop has nearly no redeeming qualities other than the protagonist and antagonist being cool
it might be the worst game I've paid full price for since... fuck... duke nukem forever?
This is the absolute opposite of what I've heard from my most trusted game recommender, tell me more.
-Makes launch Cyberpunk 2077 look good by comparison, I have an overclocked ryzen 3600 with 32gb of ram and a 3070 - that wasn't cutting it so I borrowed my roommates rtx 3090/threadripper system and it still runs like dog shit (hard hiccups every 5 seconds)
-The AI is incredibly inconsistent, on one hand, stealth isn't an option in the game because somebody's going to psychically pinpoint your location and beam the GPS coordinates to everyone else, on the other hand they will happily file one at a time through a doorway, it's okay though because ~~~
-All the guns in the game are dogshit, don't feel good to use, and jam every 10th bullet, to prevent you from just gunning everyone down. Your guy also refuses to carry more than 2 magazines of ammunition
-There is no reason to explore the map, the game leads to where you need to go and then you just do that, and move on. Exploring the map is pointless because *anything* you find, including super powers, goes away when you die
-I can't see myself ever being able to beat this game - I was expecting something like Dead Rising with the loop, where I would level up during loops and I would somehow unlock things that I get to keep at the start, to make it easier each time - no such luck here. This game has an asinine system where you "send to safe house" upgrade thingies you find, that you can't use when you find them, and have to go back to home base and the use a loadout screen to equip, which advances time to go to, and you lose all this shit when the loop resets - so what's the point? Lol you really want me to explore the map to find an uncommon upgrade that reduces weapon recoil by 5% that I wont be able to use until the next 1/3rd of that day's loop and the will disappear after that, requiring me to spend 20 minutes of my life to walk back and pick it back up if I want it?
-I was expecting metroidvaynia type deal maybe? Maybe it gets there? I'm guessing 5 hours into this game every loop will be "you must do these 47 actions IN EXACT ORDER AND WITHOUT MAKING ANY MISTAKES" before you can "start" your loop attempt, because otherwise you'll just be unupgraded asshole with no superpowers and a shitty light smg
Seriously, skip it, just play dishonored and delete your save whenever you die, it will be more satisfying, because at least the enemy AI is fun to fight and your weapons work
I would really like a 2TB instead of a 1TB, but the price is too high. It is like around $360 for a 2TB. Compare that to the cost of an entire PS5, that is ridiculous.

Letterkenny is a show on Hulu around rural Canadians (Ontario). It p. Much nails small town rural life, Canadian or not.
Quebec people are one of the mirror villains and a big part of the show for a few seasons.
I can't believe I'm Americansplaining fucking Letterkenny to a Canadian.
I'm not canadian, I'm québécois.
I've genieunly never saw the show you are talking about!

but they're listening to every word I say
Their update from today showed they've shipped tables for the following tiers:
January 2021
February 2021
March 2021 (50/300)
Hmmm....I think they're a little behind.
I really like the levelling system, but my dude essentially had to be retired after, like, two missions, because getting hurt is super punishing.
So I invented a sibling for him that turned out to be a way more fun character.
