I can't do anything, that's the problem. If Person A gets beat up in a bar fight, person B can't go press assault charges on person A's behalf. She said she afraid of the backlash that will come from outing this guy because he's so popular. He fucking publicly shamed her because she said she wouldn'...

Ok, So Simon thinks its stupid to call out douschebags in our midst, I guess. Are we supposed to be radically inclusive of their creeper behavior and good-old-boy BS? To hell with that, this dude should be banned from parties and events because he likes to sexually blackmail women in our community a...

What happened was there was a girl in the WA burner network who turned him down for sex, so he started porn bombing her with dick pics and then this BJ one in unlabled emails. So the revenge porn thing was 2 sided. He's degrading 2 women, the one who turnes him down for sex and the one who didn't. I...

Wait...is he real? Or is is misha baron goin 2 pop out of him slinging pies or something?

males also need to worry about people photographing them sucking someones penis. i find your not noticing this highly offensive. I am sorry i did not mention it. Thank you for adding it to the mix. Seeing how the revenge porn in this case was targeted at a woman, and as I am a woman, i don't feel c...

So for some reason my social media feed was filled with Sexual Harassment stuff today, like Bikram Yoga getting sued...again, women traveling alone in Idia jumping oit windos so not to get raped and ... oh ya, a FUCK YOU CREEPER poem about revenge porn over facebook and social media. What the fuckin...

I was too young when I saw this, actually I don't think I'll ever be old enough not to be creeped by it.

Was that his ranger outfit get-up? I don't think I would have been able to resist asking him where the showers were...I'd have hated myself for a little bit afterwards, but what the hell, there's a Karma bank for that.

I dreamt of a world once where I was certain I had died in my sleep and gone on to whatever heaven lies in the here after. I had wings of silk and iridescent scales and I could climb on the winds up high to examine ancient ruins growing out of the sides of mountains like honey combs for humans build...

Well, I hate to ruin the party and drop the thread ending bomb but I'd have to say that my favorite conspiracies are all bundled up right..... here. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_RQjQvxtmK8A/TEHUWtFLnyI/AAAAAAAADKo/HXKgvNxHk7A/s1600/Woo+Tablev0.9.png There. That should do it. I want that on a T-shirt s...

If your friend's costume is made entirely out of critically endangered birds that are still alive and stapled together, bleeding and mooping feathers all over the playa and he/she is waving a conflict-diamond encrusted papal scepter covered in price tags and labels from companies with human rights a...

The best gear tote for the playa is one that can carry your water, some sunscreen, your lights, a snack, goggles, sunglasses, a beverage or food container lip balm and anything else you might need out there while still being comfortable and not too bulky. I use a hydro-pack because the primary thing...

I edited the above post because I re read it and it sounded like i was trying to justify the way things happened. I know they were wrong, I'm just mad. Mad. Mad. Mad. EspeciLly reading about the Serial Rapist on the playa this year. What the Eff was going on? Fertility doesn't mean " must have sex n...

Sorry i missunderstood you LoR. I'm back in default world now where i have the luxury of being able to look at the sitch and be pissed off. I'll go to LEO next time something like this happens, but i'll bet the LEOS will probably not do too much in a sitch like this because, as the perp put it, he h...

That story was pure imagination, inspired by some "pirates" I met while I was out one night on the playa. They'd been left out there by an art car and tried to jump on the one with the boobies. The guys were douschey and didn't have any lights, we made up a whole story about them as we were heading ...

Smenkare might be talking about creeps who don't cross that threshhold. Of course, that may not qualify as a creep in your view. I'm not going to say that creep is in the eye of the beholder, but nonetheless, there is probably a range of where we draw our lines. What I mean is, there are a lot of p...

So like we're pirates, with squirt guns! Stop your art car, we left our bikes by the trash fence because we heard there was gonna be a party, but then there wasn't so we snorted all our coke and did some bath salts and smoked all that meth we were gonna sell (Coke's still cool right, hey don't you f...

I'm appreciative of the advice guys, it helps me see things from other perspectives. And the stories too (Thanks AntiM, Runs With Scissors and everyone else who's been in/witnessed similar situations and contributed) This isn't something I expected so I wasn't prepared for it. Next year though, I li...

The camp organizers were informed, not by me, but by two of the other women who were bothered by this guy because at the time I really didn't trust my judgement in the matter. I keep looking back on it and hind sight. That which bothers me the most is that I was so quick to dismiss my original feeli...

2011 was my first burn, but it wasn't my first festival. There are some things that I see at burning man that make me cringe sometimes, but everyone burns their own way. That said, there are predators at burning man. I met one this year in 2012. He was in my camp. He actually is a member of E-Playa ...

Upon checking the kickstarter and indigogo campaigns For two awesome and worthy burner magazines Oh the shock and the sadness as reality took its toll Neither project is meeting it's pledge goal! So take a moment and let them know you care, Check out their projects and donate if you dare! 5 dollars ...

Thanks for sharing those articles. Got any more?

We're you wearing a helmet?

People who got ticket confirmations have got their "shot" People who will eventually get tickets through STEP or other means will get their "Shot" too. Tickets will still change hands, like they always do. Tension's just high right now because this is new and nobody knows what will happen. I think I...

Total population growth last year was 5% Okay, lets not use last year's population growth as indicative of anything, since there was the cap from the permit. We know that demand outstripped supply, we don't know what supply was... Also agree that ARGUING about it is futile, but if you want to be in...

This isn't the end of the world as we know it. It's just something new. Anyone remember the first time they tried to ride a bike without training wheels? ... :shock: Me either, dad put me in a helmet for round 2. Seriously though, we're all trying to figure this thing out and some of us aren't going...

Welcome to the tribe!

Let's be realistic here. We WON'T know how many tickets ended up with whom until well after the end of the Event. We don't even know how many people actually wanted to go this year. We just know how many registered for tickets, and from what I've read, some of those people were scalpers and some of ...

Scalpers can scalp tickets all they like. We're they're market. If we're not buying, there's no market.

If there is no demand there will be no supply. (Smen's avridged law of Ferengi accquisition)

Very few members of my theme camp got.tolickets this year. I believe those who did are still going, but looking to join other camps. The rest of us are going to do stuff for our regional burn. After last years slip and slide accidents its going to be a toss up between cannibal bird camp and safety h...
