Every now and then I really enjoy re-reading the Gallimaufry arc of Buck Godot, by Phil Foglio http://t.co/vXJhOtBlV5 01:36:08, 2014-09-09

@leashless So instead of naturalising an exiting city, they'll go turn an unspoilt winderness into a city? in reply to leashless 02:07:07, 2014-09-09
@leashless You never hear groups like this saying they're going to move into a pre-existing city waiting to be rebuilt. Invade Detroit! in reply to leashless 02:09:25, 2014-09-09
@leashless But then they've got to start talking about locally available resources, infrastructure, & everyone'd rather have ideal fantasy. in reply to leashless 02:10:32, 2014-09-09
@leashless Groups are all fun and games until someone decides you should buy an island. EVERY group does this. It's like a rebel teen phase. in reply to leashless 02:11:57, 2014-09-09

Honestly, every niche group of people I've ever been involved with, there's always been an isolationist subset with a loud following. 02:14:37, 2014-09-09
Their own island, a commune, seastead, neo-traveller groups.. always a new way. Islands are just most common. 02:15:59, 2014-09-09
"Let's put everyone we like it one place, it'll be like heaven on Earth" Right up until you realise people aren't one-dimensional beings. 02:16:56, 2014-09-09
The interest you're suggesting they congregate around is just one of many things they enjoy. Can your idea stand being non-idealised? 02:18:20, 2014-09-09
"The Dream Islands" would only work with true obsessives. Extremists. You need connection to overarching civilisation. 02:19:31, 2014-09-09
And if you set up an isolated land of extremists? Good luck getting new people in, or getting yourself out. Desent will not be tolerated. 02:20:53, 2014-09-09
I mean that literally. If you've set up somewhere as a place just fo one interest or type of person, it's easy for other things to threaten. 02:21:47, 2014-09-09
Purity is an exceptionally delicate thing. 02:22:08, 2014-09-09
Short form: 100 people could buy a small chunk of forest and some hipster vogue mini houses. Or they could buy 30 city blocks of Detroit. 02:24:43, 2014-09-09
If you think I'm wrong about this as a fashion choice, think how the Freelancers will react when the first used trailerpark home arrives. 02:27:28, 2014-09-09
You say "Independant micro-home utopia in the wilderness", I hear "Trailerpark with wifi and chemical toilets" 02:29:19, 2014-09-09
A wilderness will only remain so for as long as you're not living in it. First heavy rains & everyone'll have concrete standings poured. 02:31:42, 2014-09-09
Concrete standings, someone'll build a deck. Maybe a concrete slab so they can work on the car they need to travel 20miles to the shops. 02:32:28, 2014-09-09
And god forbid the satelite internet goes out or the prices go up. 02:32:53, 2014-09-09
Also, you know, costs. You want to invest your life savings to go live with people you've not even house-shared with before? 02:34:23, 2014-09-09

Respect to those groups that actually plan well enough to try living in close proximity before investing all their worldly goods in an idea. 02:35:32, 2014-09-09
Honestly, the rest of you are fucking nuts. 02:36:02, 2014-09-09
