Urban Scout's Interests
General
Surviving industrial collapse, creating life beyond civilization; 7 generations strong, whistle-blowing, setting boundaries and respecting others, sewing my own clothes, cooking good food, body ecology diet, paleo diet, fermenting food, sitting around a backyard campfire, making stuff with sticks and stones and bones, hanging out, surfing the internet, sitting alone and watching animals and shit, riding my bike, going to bars and not drinking or smoking but living vicariously through my friends who do, seeing my friends in large groups, dance parties, modeling, sipping black tea and reading anti-civilization/pro-indigenous books, having long caffinated talks with people I barely know about how fucked civilization is, watching the revolution from the edge, getting covered in mud (or not) and then hiding, fine dining, having apocalypse dreams, meeting new people, hating what deserves to be hated, making plans, playing in the woods, playing in the city, pretending I'm living after the collapse of civilization.
Music
bird songs, grasshoppers, wind in the trees, frog chorus's, elk bugles, raccoons lament, rolling rivers, baby deer mews, squirrel chattering, geese honking, falling rain, farm animals, and Punk Fucking Rock; screeching weasel, the queers, the riverdales, the groovie ghoulies, gg allin, the donnas, the misfits, mc5, the ramones, the germs, iggy & the stooges, girlschool, the exploding hearts.

thanks for letting me be your virtual friend. with my busy schedule of gluing myself to seats and staring at screens its hard to get out and meet people that are doing good for the world. Like your booming fashion industry, and being on mtv. those are the things that count. Seriously though, thanks for showing people how to cut up meat and use all the parts. I love animals, especially when i can where them and eat them. keep up the re-wilding!
Unimaginable human suffering and mass animal extinction from global warming. A national security nightmare brought on by dependence on foreign oil. A peak oil crisis threatening economic collapse.
