Not anymore. Mostly rich people with lots of money to commission art and bring it to a desert.

I think so. He’s been off the grid since he got there. I am guessing no cell service. It looked pretty cool when he wasn’t previewing it. I don’t see his van in that picture though.

Yeah, my friends are just starting to text me back.

Oddly, even though Nevada legalized recreational weed, the Burning Man cops were still messing with people over it. What a weird, opposite land we live in now.

i heard there's a one-way old fashioned phone hooked up that you can call and whoever happens to be walking by can answer and talk to you.

I was a paramedic there for 7 days, you wouldn’t believe it if I had 8 hrs to sit and tell you about the whole week.

I was interviewing a man who had passed out, 3-4 mins into the assessment his BP and heart rate dropped, he coded and we worked on him for about a minute doing CPR, he regained a pulse, about a minute later he woke up. He was flown to Reno, and flew back home to Hong Kong 3 days later.

I saw a naked guy on all fours getting whipped while his “master was chatting with 3 half naked women.

I saw a woman fall two stories and hit a bunch of things coming down, fell on her back and head and get up and dust herself off.

I was handed a block of black tar heroin about the size of a snickers bar, about 75 syringes and two burnt spoons by a person whose camp mate walked off and they didn’t want that in their camp, I’m sure that guy was dope sick bad.

You... don’t know what coded means and you can’t figure it out through context clues?

It means he flatlined.....

I mean, those stories could realistically be from lots of music festivals. I'm going to one in Feb that is apparently pretty intense as far as the crowd goers.

I'd love to hit Burning Man. I'd prefer to bring a camper, but I could do tent + pay to be part of a camp with showers. I wouldn't do 9 days most likely.
