survival hermitage 10


SURVIVAL HERMITAGE 10
Advantages, continued
Some folks idea of camping is to spend about a third of the price of a house on a RV, drive out to X spot with trees, and have an on-grid weekend. They think they are roughing it because they have to limit their turds to the holding tank capacity.  Why are they there?  If it is to get fresh air, they doesn’t exactly work very well as they are spewing generator exhaust hither and yon to keep the batteries topped off after using the electric Fry Daddy ( smart off-grid practitioners use a propane turkey fryer ).
*
To me, the level of comfort and luxury is secondary.  I’m there for one primary benefit, and that is Quiet.  A bunch of birds squawking at each other and the ground squirrel is not noise.  People, and their possessions, that is noise.  That is what I want to escape from.  If you go hiking as far away as possible, to get some peace, you are probably the same way.  Yes, we need each other.  No man is a true island.  But there is nothing in the biological rule book that says we need each other every day.
*
Most ‘Murican’s are mercenary, greedy consumers.  They want to see you as much as you want to see them, which is as little as possible ( this doesn’t apply to extroverts, who are just Not Right in the head.  They should be viewed as having a disease beyond their control ).  They mainly just want your money.  This works out well for you, as a hermit, because it means you can take advantage of their no social strings attached services and products offered which allows you to live away from them as long as you’d like.
*
Instead of being graciously allowed a few moments a month enjoying peace and quiet, if you are silly enough to live in the hive, you just have to put up with their frenzied gobbling the few moments a month you are forced back into town to resupply.  Peace and quiet 99% of the time rather than the normal 1% citizens are allowed.  Granted, you actually NEED that interaction.  We are social animals, and must have SOME face time with others of our species.  But better too little than too much, as we are also each others worst enemy. 
*
Even worse than listening to other people, or neighbors borrowing your stuff, if you live in town most likely you have kids.  Or, the new wife brought hers with her.  If you live in town to earn a good paycheck, odds are you will be chosen by a wife.  Usually, it isn’t your choice.  You will be targeted and if under 45-50, your little brain will be used against you.  Not that there is anything wrong with that.  The bad thing about living in town is raising spawn, which ties in with the “good” thing of spawning itself.  It’s just life, not good or bad.
*
The REALLY bad thing about your spawn, besides the high maintenance aspects of just keeping them alive, is that THEIR friends come over, make noise ( all rutting teenagers make noise.  They are trying to drown out their hormone splattered voices inside their head ), and then, if that wasn’t insulting enough, those same friends are either stealing from you, breaking your crap, or casing out the place for someone who will rob you blind as you are going to work to feed those pathetically worthless losers your wife calls hers.  Does that sound like something you’ll miss?
*
I’m not claiming that anyone can avoid wives or wife accessories like kids.  I’ve had my share of bitches with their teenager problem children.  At the time, I didn’t like it but I didn’t leave to go live by myself, either.  It was just another millstone around my neck I had to burden myself with.  BUT.  After that time of your life when you start slowing down physically, your libido also stops pumping out as many chemicals that enslave you.  THEN you can become a hermit and enjoy the benefits of avoiding live in gals. 
*
With all their problems.  Sure, guys are just as bad.  We are uncivilized pigs.  We NEED women ( and the same is true in reverse, Cat Ladies ).  But humans in general are pretty stupid.  Some are worse than others.  But the majority of us are stupid enough to get ourselves in trouble.  Our intelligence doesn’t come from individuals, but rather from the group intelligence of culture.  Our problem today is that the culture is broken, and from that you can pretty much guess that the collective IQ took a huge nosedive.  Everyone is now acting stupider than normal.
*
So it isn’t just that wives are worse than ever traditionally.  It is that there is no culture forcing them to act properly.  Nor is there a cultural impetus forcing males to act traditionally.  And that will not change without blood running in the streets, either from a civil war or from the collapse of our civilization.  Darwin always grades the final exam.  If there is no current need for females to act as proper wives, nor for males to support them traditionally, you might as well enjoy the moment where they have just become a piece of meat.  If you lived with them, you would just be a wallet.
*
There is nothing wrong with men providing for and protecting women.  Laying down our lives to protect the tribe.  That is preferable, and how we are wired.  And there is nothing wrong with women caring more about kids than careers.  They prefer it that way, biologically.  But that time ain’t now, since that culture was destroyed and made illegal ( or at least penalized ).  You don’t have to like the price society is and will pay for this situation ( no wives, no kids, no neighbors ) to go ahead and enjoy the rewards it is temporarily delivering.

    1. Good day, the daughter called and we chatted for over an hour. One of the few who went to college and got smarter, we solved all the worlds problems :) Nicest surprise I could have gotten ( she is always busy and I never call anyone ).

  2. Yeah, I have "adapted" quite well to the results of the fractured and disfunctioning society. I recommend fellow male (females in parallel form) Minions to just use a written out or mental flow chart to track out all of the negative probabilities that must be considered as those "will" happen to you. Be honest, you are not special, and try as you may (the best dad, husband, employee, community member) the worst case scenarios will occur. That chart will quickly display a cost / benefit ratio that is not a bargain, and that plug nag of a horse ain't worth it. The new normal of bachelor bucks running his own program successfully, content and unhindered or burdened will be mainstreamed. (Mgtow) is a parallel acronym - movement. Embrace the Hermitage.

  3. To me, an RV is a totally oil age luxury. Good luck living in one without a way to heat it constantly, because the second the heat goes off, it will be freezing 5 minutes later. If you plan on living in one, be sure to have a 0° rated sleeping bag to climb into every night, because you’re going to need it.

    The worst stepkids from hell scenario that I knew of was from a former manager. They forged checks, hawked SKS rifles, flat out stole anything from him of value that wasn’t bolted down. When he opened his wallet, it was full of hundred dollar bills. I thought that this was odd, and he explained that he wasn’t even safe with his checking account, because the wife and stepkids always found a way to access it. Last I heard, he was still in that marriage. This was a marriage that almost immediately after the nuptials, she completely cut him off from sex. It has now probably been some 20 + years that he has gone without intimacy. I mean, she was kind of fat, and rather homely, so you probably wouldn’t have wanted to have sex with her in the first place, but it’s the principle of it, damn it :D

    1. Sounds like my dad and stepmom. Damn! Yeah, it is the principle. Ask me how I know how good fat chicks look after two weeks.

      Delete
    2. Some fat chicks are doable to me Jim, but I know that most guys disagree. I’ve also seen many very pretty redheads, but most guys I know won’t touch em with a 10 foot pole. You would think that this would make things easier for men to score, if you’re willing to settle for what’s considered to be the “less desirables”. But the feminists ruined all of that with their “BBW” theme, so now even the fat chicks are picky.

      If you ever go to a dating site, you will also notice that even the older females (as in well past their prime) will state on their profile that they will accept men much younger than themselves, but perhaps men only a few years older. This is the result of the feminization of men, creating a lot of thirsty mangina’s, that are willing to put up with anything just to be with a women. I’ve noticed that generally speaking modern women relationships are not worth the effort. They have a list of high demands, but are not willing to offer much in return.

    3. I don't disagree with you. Been there myself too many times. But it isn't just fat and old, it is the completely dysfunctional ones with tons of baggage, who think they are smoking hot princesses deserving of the keys to the kingdom.

  4. Those yuppie campers with the rv, tow vehicle, noisy kids, and displays of affluenza are just a honey pot for harvesting. Any closer to collapse and privation will have banditry using those stupidly naive granola eaters as a resource to loot, resupply, and "entertain" themselves. The hills have eyes.

    1. I remember starting a fiction piece on stealing an RV for the apocalypse. Stopped writing before it got too realistic as I didn't want to travel that dark road. I think if I rewrote it with today's Cat Lady sensabilies I'd have no problems killing off the RV'ers. Although I doubt I could be all John Carpenter and kill off a kid wanting an icecream cone.

      Delete
    2. Yeah, but that kid will stab you in the ass cheeks with a knarly blade like the movie midnight express. Enslave them or sell them off if not your own spawn. Otherwise sleep with one eyeball open all the time. All the we world's phsychopaths were children once, not worth the chances post collapse, too many other risks. But, collapse time is new game rules, so....

  5. I've been looking for a travel trailer (TT) for years but I have 2 problems. I'm a broke dick dawg. And I have high ideals. Seems like all of the TT's built in the past 20-30 years are mostly paper thin junk meant for the landfill from the beginning. And all of the older ones that haven't been ran to death of used up are way too expensive. So with that in mind I started designing one that I'd like to build myself. It will be built on a home made frame with 1/4" thick rectangle steel tube on 2 axles with 15" wheels. The frame of the TT will be fabricated out of 2"x4"x3/16" rectangle tube aluminum. The body of the TT itself is 16' long and 8' high and 8' wide. It is slightly curved on the top and bottom, front and rear for aerodynamics. Closed cell styrofoam will be cut to fit between the aluminum tubes and the interior and exterior skins will be 1/4" thick luan birch plywood completely encased in fiberglass cloth and resin. It will be an airtight boat on wheels. I have a friend that will let me borrow his aluminum welder but I'm averse to borrowing stuff so I'm shopping around. This thing is meant for just 2 people and my ideas are very unconventional. TT's today try to look pretty at the cost of functionality. My view is diff. It has to function first, then look pretty. The same way I look at buildings I design.

    1. I can see where you'd be completely turned off commercial products, yes, given your profession. I can't drive a nail straight or build a wall true, and I'm offended by the junk they sell, even to the rich bitches. Plus, you are probably bored and need a project :)

  6. re:
    RV 'quality'?

    Horse-trailer with Living Quarters ('LQ') == all aluminum or all steel. Engineered for decades of protecting stomping stock, logging roads to the BackCountry. Heavy axles, heavy tires.

    On the other hand...
    Somehow, I managed to achieve esteemed Senior Member status on the mega-site 'IRV2'. Every day, I see hundreds of posts about stuff failing and falling off.

    We live near Junction City and Coburg in Oregon, and delivered Recreation Vehicles semi-perfessionally for about a half-decade. Here is one experience:
    Every Recreation Vehicle is chucked out of the factory with expectations of extensive warranty returns.

    Assemblers have zero investment in the product, often sabotaging the vehicle since they can never afford to purchase or use a new(ish) Recreation Vehicle. "Those rich? Joke 'em!"

    During one extended discussion of Quality Control, I wrote of my experiences with a BillionBuxBus manufacturer... unnamed because the name of the company is classist. And probably ageist since only evil races are of that class.

    I was scathingly scolded for sharing my experiences. Apparently, that conflicted with the audacity of hope in some folks. "No, no! [hands over ears] you're all wrong! My last RV with all its problems was just an anomaly. My next RV will be better!"

    You may want to verify this with users and dealers == I never heard of a horse-trailer going in for warranty work. Farm people won't tolerate such nonsense.

    Recreation Vehicle buyers, not so much.

    1. Is it because farm folk won't tolerate sub-par quality, or is it because culturally we treat animals/pets so much better than Seniors? I'll bet a lot of dog houses are better made than RV's, also. Just a thought

  7. re:
    popping-out miniature reproductions

    2018, Ohio == a family was massacred at their farm after a custody battle kept the child with the female parent. Six (seven?) dead, the gentleman Jake ___ (Rhodian?) faces the noose. Or whatever they do in Ohio.

    Although questioned about his involvement in the massacre, Jake proclaimed his innocence... and filed for custody of the now-motherless child, now in a foster home.

    Post-massacre DNA tests strongly indicate the child is not related to Jake.

    Reporters and journalists focused on the use of 'silencers' during the hours-long assault on the remote property.

    Jake's granny is in jail for urging him on.

    PS:
    It looks like I may be a jaundiced cynic, complete with the membership card and secret door-knock. I can't read stuff like this without chuckling for days after.

  8. re:
    cargo trailer build as BOV

    My suggestion:
    Wheels and tires match those on the towing vehicle.
    Axles heavier than you think you need now. Tandem duals is our minimum, a pair of 12k.
    Integral water and fuel tanks.
    An excessive amount of tools and spares.
    Common product. Yugo? Zilt? 2018 Nissan with Cummins V8?

    For decades, we were involved with caravans of boats on trailers to very remote areas of Baja. We rarely use our tools fussing with our rig; we meet the nicest people broke-down.

    Our travel philosophy is summarized in one word:
    Donner Party.

    1. My experience "dry camping" is that your time out is limited by your onboard fresh water supply. There is plenty of Propane, gasoline, black-grey tank (and a hole nearby is for...?) to last months, esp. with some pv to charge the batteries without genset or driving. After a week, you run out of refrigerated meat and produce, dairy products, and after a couple weeks freezer meat, but have months worth of can/dried food when you run out of water. Mapping out wells for re-fill is a big deal.
      Large Marge: Agree about Horse Trailer- people love their horses and will pay more for extra metal and the best tires/wheels/axles/suspension to keep them safe & comfortable for riding at the destination.
      In the Eugene Or area, you are cursed by a major RV junkyard. Portland is far away enough that a broken trailer or rv is a plague on your property or block (no enforcement against sleeping in RV on private property in pdx since 2017, due to "housing emergency").

    2. Yes, so obvious. Duh. I should have caught that.

    3. Apologies. I had meant to share this earlier but got distracted. I mean, come on guys I have 7 tabs open right now on my browser, that's low (no wonder my computer is slow).

      Anyway - in the early days of Dingoland with English explorers bla bla bla. Anyway, an expedition out into the desert came across a water hole. There were foot prints from the Aboriginal tribe which had passed through recently. The explorers drank deeply, filled their water bottles then let the horses drink.

      Now here's the problem. The horses destroyed the water hole with their hooves. I probably should point out 1) they were in the desert (what's now South Australia... whoops South Dingoland) 2) the water hole was pretty much a shallow pool of muddy water

      So the explorers go off and explore. I think they found that Dingoland is one big desert with cool beaches. They come back the way they came and stop off at the water hole. Only the water hole is no more. And all around they found the whole tribe of Aborigines dead from dehydration.

      Horrible story.

      I know Lord Bison preaches "Food is first always" but it's Water that comes first. Just ask the poor sods at Flint

    4. Water is more important but also oh so much easier to get than food. I'm in a desert, but certainly the best kind of desert as far as water goes. The further south I go not only is there more water, but less population.

  9. I am planning to build my own travel trailer on a heavy duty dual axle tractor hauling trailer. Deck over top of the wheels. Double alternating stud wall for 7 inches of insulation. Corrugated steel for walls and roof. Still am working on a woodstove design to go with it.

    1. It would seem since you sacrificed all that floor space for another wall, you might as well shave off a little more and put a sheet of rigid board insulation between the two walls. Then its better than a regular house.
