    Same energy as Henry Thoreau extolling the virtues of simple living in a cabin in rural Massachusetts but then going into Concord to get his friends and family to cook him meals and do his laundry sometimes lmao

      Let's give Thoreau some credit, he did not demand to be worshipped for being a white guy and therefore should be allowed to [redacted] anyone he pleases.

        Indeed, certainly didn't want to imply Thoreau was on the level of these guys (which alone is a disturbing sentiment given he was alive over a hundred and fifty years earlier), just the whole idea of going out into the wilderness and then remembering treats kinda reminded me of it, haha.

        Simple living usually involves a lot more pig shit than Thoreau mentions in his poems.

        To be honest that might be the intention and I could be judging him too harshly, I mean I'd probably do the same thing (although I am the worst tbf :felix-trash: )
