exercise is not consumption-free
you burn calories and because of that you have to eat more. it leads to food consumption and water consumption.

>>53574I guess you could try bushcrafting, not the type normies do where they buy a truck load of tools, but more like the type where you go into the woods and build your own stuff (tools, shelter etc) with what nature gives you. Exercise without equipment (calisthenics) and maybe meditation might work as well.

>>61975>dumpster divingHow do you get a big haul home without a car? Cars cost alot. Or were you actually planning on pulling a wagon behind you on foot the entire trip?
No.61999
>>61992I carried 64 pounds of equipment, food, and video games over a 70+20 litre ruck and 12 liter satchel, through snow and ice and that black slush that forms around the warm stormdrains. It's no big ordeal hiking with weight and even soldiers who are assigned to carry SAW ammo in full plating can adapt to it after a short amount of training. hueg bags come cheap because new production only has milsurp to compete with. You'll never regret your purchase of a bag that can safely store enough food, water, and anime to survive a 7-day bugout to the underside of an overpass.
>>61998These look good on paper but anything made to be collapsible and packable will eventually fail at the points of articulation. Adding any significant weight to a bicycle can really wear it down too. If something happens to the bike, anon will have to carry it PLUS his haul. Better to go slow and steady and just make the walk. Better yet, get a tow-behind tot roller, the little strollers with 2 wheels and a canopy. The hobos downtown here use them to store their entire lifehood and they're designed to be incredibly safe and up to the task of pulling weight. Minimal wear on the bike and it's easy to abandon then come back to because who's going to f**k with a baby stroller.

>>62004even if you somehow fuck them up you can patch them. tubes are rubber and to patch it you just need another piece of rubber and some sealant. there are antipuncture liners that go between the tube and the wheel. you can buy puncture resistant tubes as well, or just buy the sealing compound and squirt it into a tube. special tubes also exist that are much thicker on the bottom to faciliate being stronger. being neet is no excuse to not get good equipment. you can make money selling garbage you find on ebay. you are basically investing in yourself by getting a nice bike. the only other alternative is a big ass wagon or shopping cart but have fun pushing/pulling that around. or a car, but that is expensive and takes gas. to start you probably will just use any backpack and then use the money to get better stuff

There is a sea nearby and I'll swim, but I cannot do it all day or all summer. I'm waiting for your recommendations. Thanks in advance.you could take a field guide with you to identify plants and animals, a star chart, planisphere, or astrolabe and learn the stars, and by the sea you could do fishing, shrimping, cockling, or whatever is there. if you're identifying plants anyway you could try making cordage from nettles and baskets from coppice, that kinda stuff, and see if you can find anything tasty

No.62167
>>62165that's very hot especially as it's by the sea, but you could harmonize your time indoors and outdoors whether it's coming up with knots or weaves, practicing things like furoshiki, suburi, zazen, or analyzing cuttings you've brought back with you
there's also nothing wrong with just relaxing on hot days
No.62168
>>62167Thanks for your suggestion.
>practicing things like furoshiki, suburi, zazen, or analyzing cuttings you've brought back with youThey all look so useful and meaningful. By the way, I talked to myself about what I like and what I want to do, and I realised I wanted strength and skills related to that. I'll learn how to do boxing and get a trainer if necessary, will do hiking, camping and bouldering etc. As you see in UFC fights, they use all the means in the hexagon. So, practicing some moves and doing shadowboxing at home is the best in my opinion. Even though you're doing the wrong stuff, you'll improve your body and overall athleticism.

I was thinking about bringing back some sort of artisanal hobby. When I was a young teenager I used to build things with my hands, crappy mechanisms, had a fixation on bows which culminated in surprisingly (for something made by a 14 year old) powerful crossbow (it could've probably pierced a skull)
Maybe I could make plushies and sell them. It would be fun sharing something I make and I haven't built/made anything for so long. A hobby like that could bring in money.
>>53611For math that's a little low, but a good idea. Having that knowledge without an outlet for applying it is it's own problem, so I don't recommend this.
No.63355
>>63354I think just doing the problems is enough, are you saying that you struggle with motivation without a means to apply the knowledge? If so, just take it less serious, learning math is fun silly little games for silly little boys
No.63356
>>63355That's a very odd suggestion and wording. Anyways if you don't take math seriously you're not gonna learn it because it's hard. It's kind of like bulking up to become really fit, but then you need to have some kind of weight lifting, mountain climbing, or sport outlet for it, otherwise what's the point?
No.63363
>>63356One can't bulk up without resistance training such as weightlifting so your simile falls short there. besides, a man doesn't need a reason to get fit. A healthy body is a prepared body. A healthy body is the foundation of a happy mind.
>what's the point?The experience of learning is fun even if the learner has no application for the knowledge. He can still entertain himself by testing and advancing himself.

gardening is really cool
you can use milk jugs and other bottles as pots. also you can turn garbage into soil/compost. and seeds from stuff you already eat can be planted to grow your own stuff
really good hobby for unemployed wizzers. it's also immensely satisfying at a primal level seeing their growth every day you go to water them and knowing you are responsible
many fruits and vegetables are also not 'true to seed' meaning when their genetics are like a bizarre lottery and you never know what youll get which makes it interesting. dragonfruit is a good example

>>66814Would a mask be enough?
No.66817
>>66815Depends on the mask and the general setup.
Like if you are cutting/grinding stuff wet then there would be very little dust. It which case a mask might not even be needed.
But if you were powdering silica in a hermetically sealed room with not even the faintest of air flow, while wearing a ski mask, bro you gonna die.
No.66828
>>66815depends heavily on the particle size
if you are chiseling and carving stone by hand outside you dont need anything crazy
if you are sawing, grinding, cutting, etc and producing dust, then you need an air filter and dust collection and a mask tbh
for wood if you work by hand, you can cut, saw, drill, chisel, etc and you dont need a mask. the moment you use powered tools though you need dust collection and air filtering and sometimes a mask
i built a shelf outside today and the dust was so bad i had to walk away after every cut and wait for it to settle. this was with a breeze too
