Can someone identify what this crying sound I heard in the forest is? Is it a goat? We don’t have any native mammals except introduced gamehttps://voca.ro/1mrJT2ZP9YmU
>>2849040that was me sorry OP
>>2849176>best keep your distanceI'd keep my distance from you. No grown adult who "sees things" like this will be anywhere near me with a gun or a knife.
I always assume weird noises at night are just foxes getting fucked
>>2849236Could be some hairy hippie girl getting her guys rearranged too. I used to hike with a bush bunny that wanted to fuck nonstop on the trail

How many animals (exclude insects for sake of arguments just mammals birds and big conscious animals like that) die from farming grains?I just watched a video of a man get run over by a tractor and he was fine https://m.youtube.com/shorts/lOpklrpjQjI
>>2848118>>2848309Stop making me hate the modern times anons. I can only take so much.
>>2848309
>>2848309Fuck. Why are humans so wasteful? We could be restoring prairelands and shiet instead of farming basically ethanol.
>>2848309The conversion efficiency of corn to corn syrup is much better than that of converting corn to meat (especially beef). Corn syrup is unhealthy, but not the calorie shredder that meat and milk production is. Corn production is also extremely land-efficient. Other unnecessary use of land for food purposes is basically anything that is not a staple or a high calorie vegetable.
>>2847804Small European country here. ~26000 square kilometers of agricultutral land altogether, with grain accounting for 41% (~12480 square kilometers).IIRC the figure was around ~2500 yearly. Mostly because does birth their fawns in those grain fields.Friendly isekai john deer runs them over later in the day.
What kind of tires do you run in winter? Do you actually go places where it is snowy and icy?
>>2849117Yeah I wouldn't want them anywhere warm enough they can use salt to get the roads back to bare pavement after every snow. Here the average winter daytime highs are below the temperature salt even works, so they spread a sand mix to try creating traction. On the highways they started using calcium chloride and magnesium chloride which work to much lower temperatures.We get a lot of powder snow that doesn't stick to itself which is also a challenge for a standard winter tire. In the city water dripping out of car tail pipes also creates ice at traffic lights.
>>2849115>>2849117I've had no problem with Blizzaks on icy roads. I've driven from the lower 48 to Alaska and back with them in winter.
>>2845879I don't think I need to say this but yes, you do need winter tires. All season tires mean all seasons EXCEPT winter.
>>2848382But do they work and/or will they go flying off if I'm doing around 50 on the highway and hitting intermittent pavement? I had some bad crashes last time I lived in the snow (worst was a joker in a Windstar that thought he could do 80, and ended up pinballing uphill almost a thousand feet and smashing into my front end.) I don't care how they look or who makes fun of it I want the optimal "stay on the road, mauever, and stop as needed" tire.
>>2848390> Will all terrain tires do?They will not. All terrain means all terrains EXCEPT snow. I don't know why, but that's how she goes, bud

>>2841114For me it's the Dayak people of borneo/malaya. This is one region of the southeast asia that the nips never managed to fully conquer in WW2 because not only these people are very in-tune with nature, they're also extremely fierce and savage warriors. If you've ever heard about the headhunting tradition in asia-pacific then this is THE tribeWhat i find incredibly based about them is not only they managed to headhunt the nips away from their neck of woods back then. They did the same with the modern muzzie enroachment. They didn't even bother doing the usual protest diplomacy and all that bullshit, they just straight out chopped the goatfuckers heads. And it fucking works. To this day they managed to retain their autonomy and their way of life despite being surrounded by an extremely large muzzie population. They just don't give a fuckIf only everyone can be that based
>>2841243No I mean Mongolians specifically.

Tent or Car?
>>2848079Yeah or even if you can have a fire i would honestly just prefer to use this, it's a lot easier than cooking over a fire.
Feels like the place to ask.There is a chance that I may have to live in my car for about six months after the holidays. I would appreciate any general tips beyond cramming things.
>>2848581Make window vents from gutter guards. Condensation is a bitch, and you breathe it out constantly.Get a foam mattress and a level sleeping surface, the human body needs to stretch out, you cannot sleep curled up in the back seat long term without health issues.Get a gym membership so you can use the bathrooms and showers.
>>2848581Biggest thing is to make sure you can stretch out like the other guy told you.Also dont be a retard and stay in a city, it will be stressful as fuck. Go somewhere quiet so you can actually get some sleep. Dont take too much shit with you, just what you need everyday. You can sleep with your doors and windows closed but it will greatly affect your sleep quality. So find a way to open up a window or door in the rain, I do this by just opening the trunk of an opel astra by a few cm which still doesnt let the rain through. I spend all winter and spring in the Alps sleeping in an opel astra as a skibum and imo its not really uncomfortable. Although it can be a ripe cunt if you are stuck in the car for a long time bc of rain or something.
>>2848830Do you have a sunroof?If so, look up Matt the Designer on YouTube's sunroof fan vent system, it's top notch.

>>2843564>but I did eat breakfast
I like the fact this is a largely a white man's pursuit, and I like how everyone say Hi to each other on the trails. I ALSO hate running but turns out walking up mountains is pretty damn fire for your cardio. Skinny white people who eat healthy is what I see on the trails and I love it, pic is from New Zealand.
What’s a good distance for a day hike that doesn’t have elevation increases?
>>2847647I think most big day hikes are 17-23km depending on the terrain but honestly as a dude with medium fitness and OP as mentioned I found about 12km good, not exactly short, can still go places, still stuff but you're not getting to that point where you're walking 8 hours and start turning into "Oh another fucking tree" "Oh more fucking rocks where are my car keys"
>>2847793you are going to get him in troubleanon start with 2-3 mi and work your way up if you are hiking and all you can think is "this is a slog I can't wait to be done" you should have an hour or less to go at that point
>>2847647Whatever you can manage in about four hours
>>2847554Hey man I feel you. I did a 3000' ascent, and the subsequent descent fucked my knees up for several days afterwards. I've come to find that I like switchbacks instead of those damn rock or railroad tie staircases you see all over the PCT, because switchbacks are more merciful on your knees.
Do you partake, anon? It's the best way to experience nature
>>2846628>Stoner can't reliably perform the simple task of mushroom identificationChecks out.
>>2843161Found a new honey hole for cyanescens and l took a handful (there was still so much left) in a paper towel which I left in the kitchen table. Recently got a pressure cooker and was making big plans of sterilizing a jar of mulch and trying to grow mycelium from the spores. Next morning I head out and remember to text my retard roommate to not throw them out. The retard threw them out already, saying he was sorry and needed to clean because he was going to have people over. I get home and the table is still a fucking mess.
I can tell none of you have eaten enough shrooms to even speak on this topic... Comparing it to LSD is what normies do. You know that there are multiple species of mushrooms that contain psilocybin, varying in potency, right? The psilocybin latches onto the serotonin receptors and your body converts it into psilocin. Each type having a different effect. I've done a shit load of acid, ket, and psilocybin is the most profound of them all, because you can eat any amount and never OD. If all you get is "chill" then you haven't eaten enough, or you're eating a weak species. Fucking normie consumers, instead of larping about taking mushrooms, go out and get your gear dirty for once and eat enough to not piss fungi gods off like me
>>2843161I like kava, tobacco+coffee, or kratom for hikes if I wanna get high. I want something that is mellow and relaxing.
>>2848607>fungal god>doesn't even get the pathway of psilocybin metabolism correctok bud
