Saturday, July 28th, 2007

As you can see from the above photograph, this week ReadyMade Magazine has turned me into the poster child for rewilding. Check out the latest issue (Aug/Sept) for a centerfold you can all hang on your walls. Have I made anarcho-primitivism cool yet?

Terms of Subsistence

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

I recently joked with Penny Scout about how the term, “scavenger hunt,” sounds like an oxymoron; a scavenger doesn’t hunt… they scavenge. This joke inspired me to write a little about the terms of subsistence strategies.

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

Friday, July 6th, 2007
