    I’m walking down the street when I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight. And then he swept up from behind. He put a gun up to my head. He made it clear he wasn’t looking for a fight.

    He said, “Give me all you’ve got. I want your money not your life. But if you try to make a move, I won’t think twice.”

    I told him, “You can have my cash. But first you know I got to ask, ‘What made you want to live this kind of life?’”

    He said, “There ain’t no rest for the wicked. Money don’t grow on trees. I got bills to pay. I got mouths to feed. There ain’t nothing in this world for free. I know I can’t slow down. I can’t hold back though you know, I wish I could. Oh no there ain’t no rest for the wicked until we close our eyes for good.”




  • If I give you a benefit of the doubt then you’re a pacifist. Where you’re going wrong is in believing that everyone else should also be a pacifist.

    Even the Green Party would kick you to the curb. You’re a lone wolf that’ll stagnate in neoliberalism like all the other lone wolves. It’s a net negative to engage. Even if you wanted to learn the majority would turn you down because a Trump supporter would be a better prospective student.

    Remember: You’ll always be judged by the quality of your questions.

    Good luck.





  • As the other user said, I found them from backpacking for roughly the same reasons.

    Subsequently I’ve found them to be extremely convenient whenever I travel. They fit into a vehicle cup holder, will last months with daily use, and are cheap enough that I don’t care much if I lose or abandon them. If I’m flying I can buy them at the destination. They’re lightweight, durable, disposable, and easily replacable across the US.

    At home, regular life, I avoid the cost and waste with Nalgene & stainless steel. My oldest Nalgene is thirty years old, my oldest stainless steel a third generation hand-me-down that’s eighty years old. This is the way.



  • You’re choosing ad hominem and red herring over humility and questions. That’s not sustainable.

    We recruit for life. Whenever you’re ready we will still be here teaching the same exact lessons we’ve been teaching for millennia.

    No rush. It’s not like you’re suffering or the planet is dying. Get around to it whenever.
