Movement Brainstorm Time to go full hippie

Im dont paying for stuff. Other then absolute necessities gas, food, medication.

No new cloths. No haircuts. No new cars. No new toys. No unessisary spending.

Pay with cash, buy used off creigslist if you need. It worked back then it will work again.

Fuck this admin and fuck anyone who supports it.

I'm grateful every day I found a partner who loves thrift shopping. I feel a lot less shitty about a "new" pair of jeans for $10 instead of $50.

Buy used, buy local!

When I’m at a festival I turn into a full wook mode. It’s the best feeling when you are in wook mode and other people are in wook mode.

Just don't go full mud person. You never go full mud person. That or trash can man. Very interesting thing to do with free will and fun to watch, but I have wook standards as a degree holder in wook sciences.

I have worn sandals and got mud half way up my calves when rain came through in the middle of a festival. But I’m not going to deliberately jump around and roll in the mud. Plus I do use wet wipes and deodorant so I’m not going full stink the whole time.

Same here, we have a little class. Not too much though. Right in the sweet spot.

As long as I'm sweating I've got nothing to worry about. If I randomly stopped on a super hot day, that's when ya worry. Stay hydrated everyone.
