Oh the irony of all the political talk in a thread about homesteading...the most un-politically related thread there could be. I guess people are really on a mission to take threads in the off topic section...off topic.

Watched a few youtube videos last night from one of those camping/outdoors type channels. Guy had an inflatable tent (was really a tiny home) with full blow windows, doors, and skylights and had a portable wood stove he setup in there with a vent hole for the chimney to vent the smoke outside. What a great setup to just pop up his own homestead anywhere he goes.

I plan on getting to a place where I have a home completely self sustaining and off grid. Its really more attainable then ever without giving up any comforts. Lots of solutions for solar electricity, starlink is taking care of an internet everywhere solution (because what's the point of being off grid if you can't get some sweat in your beard), rain catchment gutters and storage tanks seems pretty straight forward although have some things to learn about long term storage and water treatment for safe consumption. Seems like sewage is the hardest thing, or atleast the one I know the least about if you want something that mirrors city plumbing without some extensive waste treatment setup.

From there just get really good at gardening and you're pretty well set up. Personally not really a hunter/fisher so will need to put some thought into protein if I don't want to become a vegetarian.

People are trying homesteading literally because of the clown world in which we live. That is a political thing that caused the abundance of clowns.

Living off grid is getting difficult especially if ya need an interwebs for shitposting and power for mod-cons.
True homesteading is gone i believe, someone mentioned solar panels and powerwalls. Like someone else mentioned, that is paying now for 20 odd years of power. Unless some other homesteader wiff bigger guns come and takes it (assuming the shit full hits the fan that is).

You'd have to go back to little house on the prairie. But there is waaaay too many folk nowadays for that.

When that was just get a job and pay your taxes and don't kill or hurt people, I was on board.

It's creeping into a dystopian marxist authoritarian hellscape though with no end in sight.

I'd take living like the Amish and giving up the internet and all modern conveniences if it meant freedom from the thought and word police.

It only just now occurred to me that it might be Quarms fault. I hear that place is much rowdy.

Anyway I live in a small city and tons of people still stack wood for winter heat. Probably hits a bit different when it's your only option in routinely bad weather.

Are you or are you not, by investing in solar and batteries paying now for your future power needs?
Also.
If someone sees you wiff ya fancy pants setup (assuming the shit has truely hit da fan. End Of Days Stuff) ya think they aint gonna "come get some" from the haves?
Just askin questions here.
The first enquirer may eat a bullet. The next 15 may as well. But eventually, one of yas are gonna eat one. In ya lil bubble.
Anywho.
You know nuffin. About ya laughy target.
Maybe im homeless. Maybe im just a normie.
Maybe im self suffient enough for my needs.
Do you know?
