Congratulations to Shawn. Y’all get out there and buy some books.

The only thing I want out of life right now... Drunkenatheist (2010-04-10):

...is to find some sort of agorist/agorist friendly bartering network. I've been googling to my little heart's content but have found nothing outside of advice on how to begin your trek into agorism. While it is nice to find a plethora of sites detailing how one should become one with…

I think this is a really important point, and should perhaps be the next major area of development in our writing about practical agorism. We’ve got a few good how-to resources for making changes around the margin in your personal life as an individual; now what steps do we begin taking towards connecting and creating our networks?

I’ll actually probably have more to say about this myself soon. But first I need to get back from Denver. More soon, I hope.
