Had an interesting thought just now * a lot of young guys ping me: "hey, how do I get a life like yours?". Answer is "gotta build a lot of capital to buy a place, tools, etc." * one hard part of moving to country is lack of friends / peers - you're an outsider / weirdo >>>

11/ well, to be clear, in my conception, it's just a group house that's rented out as an investment property...and the tenants are given the blessing "sure, you can log trees in THIS area, and plant a garden HERE...and MAYBE I can rototill a bit for you" https://twitter.com/DeanBradleySFF/status/1268924153865949184 …

12/ ...so if 4 guys moved in and 3 of them decided that they'd rather play vidya than garden ... fine by me. Long as the rent checks clear. The "like minded community" is something THEY bring to the table (or not) for their own benefit (or not). No skin off my nose.

13/ getting a lot of [ good natured ] ribbing like this ...and, just to be clear: no, I'm not proposing that guys work on MY land or for me. Just a housing situation, and they can do what they want for themselves. My interaction is "collect rent".https://twitter.com/mr_archenemy/status/1268927281411559424 …

14/ yep, yep ...but I'm proposing something much less formal / with less interaction if some SV person buys a 6 bedroom house & rents it to geek friends so that they can all hang out, he's not collecting tribute in open source code or anything...just $ https://twitter.com/octal/status/1268928415102636035 …

15/ I used "incubator" as a joke, just to justify putting a picture of Ehrlich Bachmann in there. In reality it's just "group rental house; with some social preselection - THE END".https://twitter.com/TheClarksTale/status/1268928606194941952 …

A buddy of mine joined a UFO cult in AZ that was big into gardening/farming. He went into the cult as an out of shape pot head. He left the cult after 7 years and he looked 10 years younger than when he joined. Very healthy.
