    Speaking of ICP. One time while backpacking, my friends and I stumbled upon the Rainbow Gathering in Ocala national forest in Florida. We hungout with them for a few days, and they were mostly all cool people.

    At one point, some juggalos decided to smoke crack. There was then an argument between the juggalos and the rainbow gathering hippies about the morality of smoking crack near trees. This wasn't about whether smoking crack was wrong or right, but rather whether or not it was wrong or right to smoke crack in the presence of trees. At one point a rock was thrown and hit someone in the head.

    True story.

    Honest question, are you finding UpWork worth your time given your coding experience? 90% of the feedback I see for UpWork is about its freelance content writing (since every tom/dick/joe thinks they can write content) so I'd be super interested to know if you like it since I feel like logically coders would do better.

    Might go w/o saying since I can't code worth a shit professionally, I'm not interested in competition here just genuinely curious for an interesting/novel perspective on a fairly maligned website lol.
    :flail:
    I mean by all means look into it, just make sure you find the pitfalls. Specifically consider how difficult it is to deal w/ people who by and large have an expectation of free/cheap 2-3 day delivery nowadays because of retail giants like Amazon/Walmart/etc.

    I will be the first to say I flat out stupided my way into whatever mediocre luck I've had in life. Mix in a willingness to put in 16hrs where others only give 8, but at the end of the day I'm still low quality content messageing on an mturk forum all day instead of living in some LA mansion so I am not the guy to listen to as any authority on a damn thing lmao :dunno:

    Dude, the juggalos had their annual gathering down here every year for a while, out in some of the most beautiful natural areas there are in the Shawnee. They were NOT the "be kind to trees" types. Thankfully, for everyone's sanity (and personal safety, and insurance policies), they finally got booted.

    I've know a lot a juggalos. For the most part great people. If your in with them They will protect you at all costs. Like extended family. Without the gang violence thing. Even though the songs are violent of nature.

    Depends on what kind of juggalos you're talking to, to be honest. The larger the gathering, the higher chance of there being some incredibly shitty people who make the entire group look bad.

    It was a HUGE multi-day gathering. It'd get ugly.

    Kadas thing? I don't give myself access to most private places if I'm not meant to participate in them. I can't see the bookclub room either lmao.

    Obviously it'd be stupidly trivial for me to see 'em but :dunno: ++ I like to think people endlessly tag me in there not realizing it wont work and that makes me giggle :emoji_joy:
