    I unironically just want to be a Stalker living on the Skadovsk and trading vodka for runors and sidequests.

      Imagine waking up as Sidorych, eternally trapped in a small underground shack, communicating with mute persons via textboxes and exchanging legs of mutated pigs for ammo.

      On the other hand, if it means I am not obliged to work a daily job and pay taxes, why not?

        Funnily enough taxes wouldn’t bother me so much if the ultra wealthy and corporations actually paid their fair share.

          Fair share and fair point. Add here an actual control over their spending. I’d prefer less bombs if it’d mean less homeless.

      Living in the more rural areas of my state near the National Forest is not too far off

      But have fun being 2+ hours from the nearest city if it rains and 4+ if it snows

      Edit for added context:

      The area is typically beautiful

      But if you need to leave the food desert you inevitably will find yourself in, it’s a nightmare.
