Hi Fam, I was going to buy a van to make into a cabin on wheel today (been shopping a while) and it just wasn't a good fit for where I'm at. I was going to use it to head out this weekend from Chicago to camp in the desert with my daughter (and possibly my co-parent). So sorry I can't make it but I'...

Alabama...Really? And what would burners DO there? Those home prices reflect no job market. It doesn't look like fun at all. What would the locals think? Sorry, California born and raised. Well burners would go there and burn silly :) Well since I'm not working :roll: I decided to go and drive to A...

So I decided to play with this idea a little more because of reasons and I still think this might be a fun idea. For the price of a few tickets to BM you can buy a house like this (https://bham.craigslist.org/reo/d/birmingham-check-this-house-out/7106255339.html) or even less a house like this (http...

Yes! We could erect The Man on the site of the old blast furnaces and make our camps on the slag piles and toxic waste dumps. (Said by a disgruntled former steelworker) I like where your mind is going but can we put the man in the middle of BirmingHam? We could all eat bacon (since bacon is vegan o...

Yeah, nope. Not going to live in a State where women’s rights don’t count. Lucky420, reading between the lines I see you think that this plan will work but that it needs to be a state that fits similar criteria but already respects women's rights. That's reasonable, it might take a larger number of...

TLDR: If we don't burn in the desert, lets burn Birmingham.....for reasons like it's name sounds like Burning Man. Warning: This is the ramblings of a man with too much time on his hands...for the moment. I'm hoping that our world never really gets to this point but it definitely seems possible toda...

While I am working on getting my final talk up, I wanted to reach out to the community. If you or someone you know might be interested in sharing their story, exercise, seminar or activity for next year or possibly collaborating throughout the year, I would love to hear from you. Below is a list of ...

Hello all you Beautiful Lovely Burners, I wanted to share with you a project I developed this year called, The Lions Den. The Lions Den is a series of hosted talks, events and seminars that speak to the most transformative aspects of the burn directly, the intention being to turn things up to 11. Pu...

First of all I want to say thanks for the wonderful insight and information. It's really appreciated. When the lines are not removed from the full writing, it takes on a different context. I did not know they were originally on bamboo strips and the true original order may be lost to time, that is a...

Could one of you wise people help me? I am trying to understand the wisdom of the saying "Those who know, do not speak. Those that speak do not know" I do not see the wisdom of this saying in a truly free society; or for a truly free individual to hold in any society for that matter. While it is tru...

Ahhh so that's what I've done, I've ended up spontaneously teaching myself magic. They really need to put that in the manual so you know it can happen when playing this game. Or was this always supposed to be an undocumented feature that players had to unlock on their own. If so I guess it's time I ...

Be a Wise-ard, not a Wise-ars. A friend I think there is some great wisdom and Truth in this guys series. I'm really digging it. I never thought of my interest in comparative religions, science, philosophy and psychology as being a wizard though. I kinda get a kick out of the idea that all we try to...

we are invading defaultia, not the other way around. THIS This will continue as the effect of the Burn starts to burn the world. I didn't read the whole thread, the amount of ire for turnkeys on here is a bit too much for me and I'm a tent camper so far. However, it seems to me like the solution he...

we are invading defaultia, not the other way around. THIS This will continue as the effect of the Burn starts to burn the world. I didn't read the whole thread but it seems to me like the solution is simple here when discussion decommodification of Turn-key camps. We take the time to show them how ...

Christianity; The popular belief that a celestial Jewish baby who is also his own father, born from a virgin mother, died for three days so that he could ascend to heaven on a cloud and then make you live forever only if you symbolically eat his flesh, drink his blood and telepathically tell him yo...

I always love these conversation Perpetual Burn as I believe there are multiple facets that must be examined in order to understand the Truth. I like your take on Love, warm and cold, and Evil... Tho the tough love can lead to confusion as it inherently creates more and more rules/Religion. Then we ...

Good and evil are ideas/opinions... "When some things become beautiful, others become ugly."- Lao Tzu But good God triumphs because... "An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind."- Ghandi. We win the Holy War by not fighting. Evil needs good... otherwise there's nothing to be evil (relative)to...

I feel I need to say this because I believe it's an important lesson that I'm not sure everyone has considered. The Good does not always triumph over the Evil. I believe I am a very positive person and love everything about this world in its own way. The belief that "Good always triumphs over evil" ...

So if you are wise, love yourself and the worst can never come.

Everyone deserves to go to the Burn. Everyone is allowed to burn how they want to Burn. Everyone Burns at the Burn. Be the change you want to see in the Burn and the Burn will continue to reflect the changes you wish to see in the world. If we are not liking what we see at the Burn then we need to t...
