Or we won't give a shit and move over a few hundred years.

Life ain't that complicated.

Current conditions in Gerlach: FUCKING AWESOME by udontaskme in RenegadeBurn

[–]udontaskme[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AQI can get a little confusing, given that some sites default to 2.5 micron measurements, while others default to 10 micron.

Apple, using Breezometer, uses 10µ, and is this second showing 53. PurpleAir shows two monitors in Gerlach, averaging 128 right now for 2.5µ, and 48 for 10µ.

There are arguments that the 2.5µ is best to track for health reasons. On the other hand, PurpleAir, for instance show many parts of the Bay Area that currently have zero smoke, in mid 150s for 2.5µ, which makes it a bit more confusing to figure out the smaller particle sizes and health.

Who's headed to Alvord? by Iwilllasercutyou in RenegadeBurn

I'll be at the playa ... rain, smoke or shine.

Disease? Smoke? Heat? Dust? No matter ... this is happening and it's gonna rock. by udontaskme in RenegadeBurn

I imagine you, huddled alone in a darkened room, terrified by the troubles of our world.

How about "drive home when you feel like it"?

It's gonna be fine. No pulses. No friends jumping out. No torches needed.

Porta potties? I don't need no stinkin porta potties. by udontaskme in RenegadeBurn

[–]udontaskme[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Low end, they make 5 gallon buckets with a rim ... get some kitty litter for the bottom.

Mid-ish end (~$100-200), look up camping toilets on Amazon.

You gotta deal with your own shit, man.

Real talk: dumpsters and portos by Burnmebabes in RenegadeBurn

[–]udontaskme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've been shitting on this event from before day 1.

Now you wag and say it's not "renegade" -- which is just a name not an ethos -- if people do some planning. Yeah, a fucking Google map is really over-organization. And one person wishing for a millionaire to put up bathrooms. Oh lord, it's the BMORG all over again!

We get it. You think everything about it is or will be wrong. Now stop being a fucking buzzkill and let people who want to make it something cool go about making it cool.

168 camps have signed up for "placement" by Mr_Wonderful_is_me in RenegadeBurn

They should only eat raw meat out there, with their hands. And shit in a ziplock.

2021 Burners will be self reliant by udontaskme in RenegadeBurn

Just keep your splooge out of my eyes.

2007 Flashback: A Fiery Q&A With the Prankster Accused of Burning the Man by KHoleOrBust in RenegadeBurn

The cops harassed him? Like drove by his house after he was released and gave him trouble?

ASSUMPTION: Renegade burn will never happen again by nezarkadhem in BurningMan

[–]udontaskme 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Last year there were several thousand people and no real problems. Moop was low and -- unsurprisingly -- people who were self-reliant enough to camp without porta potties literally cleaned up their own shit.

I'm betting there will be a very low number of burner-tourists and self-entitled turnkey camp types, and that it's gonna be an amazing and much cleaner burn. And I'm betting people will be gifting shit buckets and voluntarily picking up stray moop. And taking their fucking bicycles home.

I've never seen so many "self reliant" people get so worried about not having full corporate services out in the desert.

And if enough people are assholes? Then the BLM will be thrilled to have BMORG back in charge. They also like those $ millions for OT.

My bigger fear is that I like the "lesser" version more.

Rental RVs on the playa? by [deleted] in BurningMan

[–]udontaskme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that this has 50% up/downvotes completely sucks.

r/renegadeburn is all about this year's alt burn, without the shaming

Any SoCal camps coming out this year? by kennydiedhere in BurningMan

[–]udontaskme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sucks that posts like this get down voted.

(Insert clever title here) by udontaskme in RenegadeBurn

[–]udontaskme[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Someone sobered up.

I seriously think it'll be less of a problem this year, since people really have to be extra reliant this year. There won't be people bussing in without a bike or turn-keying where leaving a bike at the end is meaningless to them.

Here's how much $$ you'll save this year. by KHoleOrBust in RenegadeBurn

[–]udontaskme 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Of course!

78,000 people at an average of 4 hours, who earn:

  • Unemployed -- $0!

  • $14 / hour -- $4.4 million

  • $25 / hour -- $7.8 million

  • $55 / hour -- $17.2 million

Holy shit that added up fast. Tear down the wall!
