   maybe instead of trying to pay baristas a "living wage" in the current system we should ask why it's so expensive to exist in america in the first place

     @deprecated_ii Most subversive thing I ever saw on youtube was this guy who pulled a wagon with his bicycle and herded goats or something. Unashamedly homeless and completely independent. If we had the exact kind of system collapse where people could fan out and live in shacks or wagons (hell, that's how a bunch of people live already) and have low to no demands on the system, we wouldn't need the system.
     
     The pink hair or troon barista is an ideal system subject: a medicated unhealthy rentoid who needs to pay money for everything and is locked into insurance and employment.

     @interalia the thing I liked best about living in alaska is there weren't all that many rules about how you could live
     
     in the lower 48 you don't have many choices, even if you buy your own land the town/county/state is still going to tell you what you're allowed to do with it
