My DJ Schedule for Burning Man 2024

The post i saw earlier was so full of gleeful misinformation, too. It's disturbing as fuck how happy some of y'all are to lean into supremacist behavior as long as the 'right' folks are in the crosshairs.
"It's not even a music festival" - no, it's an art festival. But every regional burn I've been to has DJs playing music from the moment their camps are powered up until they have to shut down, so. I can't imagine the big burn being much different.
"Tickets are expensive" - yeah. So are tickets to any big event. Checked out the price of concert or sports or con (as op mentioned) tix lately? And how many of those include multiple days? Plus, a lot of big camps help members with ticket costs and the org has ticket aid available.
"It's bad for the environment." Look. I'm not a fan of the big burn or where it's held. But a lot of people do a lot of things that are bad for the environment and it's always interesting to see where y'all point the spotlight. And I can tell you from experience that a single-day high school marching band festival leaves more trash lying around than a multi-day regional burn in the Ozarks.
"It's funny when bad things happen to rich white people." One, I'm begging you to understand individuals are not systems. Two, what is rich? What is white? Is rich the barista who saved all year for the trip because their real passion is fire art and they can't wait to spin near the Man? Is rich the group of friends who goes together every five years? Is white the Jewish kid serving coffee at Center Camp? Is white the mixed race girl dressed as Optimus Prima Ballerina?
How y'all can get on here and lament about how awful the world is for children before going on to giggle about a bunch of kids caught in a flash flood in the desert just blows my mind. And yes, kids. Burning Man is an all-ages event.
People on this site pretend to be pro labor until asked to have empathy for the employees in Black Rock City.
Folks care about climate disasters destroying towns until that town is a voluntary, temporary community. But for a week, it's a bigger city than a lot of us live in every day.
I mean, I get it. There's a lot to dislike about Burning Man - the event and the org - and those of us with burning experience could rant for days about various aspects. (for instance, everyone all shocked pikachu about the death: ppl die every year at Burning Man). But instead, again folks are wrapping supremacist behavior in progressive paper and patting themselves on the back for not being one of Those People.
if I see one more motherfucker acting like burning man is divine retribution against the rich I’m gonna fucking snap. there’s rich douchebags there, yes, but it’s also an art event that’s been running for 30+ years that’s only been picked up by rich people in the last 10 or so. this isn’t fyre fest. even in the modern scene where wealthy people have started showing up, a ticket is just $500 for the whole stay. if you’ve ever been to comic con you’ve probably spent the same amount of money on a shorter event. congrats. call me crazy but I think assigning objective morality to people based on if they like to have drugged up artsy desert sex (or yes, even their wealth. I don’t think you guys understand the difference between being wealthy and being a billionaire) n then wishing divine retribution on them is a major dick move. what are we the catholic church. also the protestors who drove past people whose lives are in active danger are the bad guys in this situation. sorry

I love reflecting on my various media interests growing up and going “yup. I’ve always been like this.”
#bunnicula; scary stories ttitd; the secret series; the twilight zone; tales from the dark side; WINNIE THE POOH HALLOWEEN; coraline; etc etc#I loved Aladdin return of jafaar because of the (near) execution scene#when I played make believe with friends I was a canibalistic/murderous gerbil#I also started a monster hunting club when I was 6 lol. I held Very Serious meetings in the playground treehouse at recess#å

Are you empowered in your life? Do you look at things that didn’t work and figure out what your contribution was, what you could have done differently? Do you learn from your “failures?” Or do you blame things or persons outside of yourself? While there are certainly an infinite number of things that are out of your control, you might be best served by focusing on those things that you personally are responsible for. Anything else is a waste of your time and energy.
By accepting responsibility for yourself, you take back your power. If you can see where you contribute to the direction of your life, for better or for worse, you can make changes. You are in control of those things which you can realistically be in control of, and you are no longer a victim of circumstances. You become the co-creator you were meant to be.
If someone does something that seems spiteful or mean or underhanded, take a look at your past behavior with that person and see if there was something you might have done, even in the distant past, that contributed to their animosity.
If someone walks all over your boundaries, see where you might have given them the idea that that was okay.
Your actions have consequences, good and bad. In that sense, you certainly influence the world you live in; how it feels, how others respond to you. Why not use that power to your advantage?

It appears, after years of not giving a crap, that I’m experiencing some FOMO surrounding ttitd. So here’s a #throwback to five years ago, playing a Tom Waits song on this dusty organ, in an open air chapel of freaky friends. #burningman 📸 @czar.ter ~ ~ ~ ~ #throwbackthursday #throwbackthursdays #burningmanphotos #burningman2014 #organ #ttitd #singersongwriter #musiciansofinstagram #fomo #pictureinaframe🎶 #tomwaits #itwasbetternextyear https://www.instagram.com/p/B1wcDj0FXII/?igshid=ou8vk91cxoli

Conversation
Offhand Manor is having trouble adjusting to Reality Camp...
Me: This is how incompetent I am today: It just took me 30 seconds to poke my baby repellent through the foil packaging.
Doug: I just tried to open the wrong end of a Coke can.
Me: We're REAL winners, aren't we?
Doug: We're SPECIAL!

Have you ever watched children at play? Or perhaps you remember being a child and playing? Do you still play? There is an energy created by the action we call “play” that is healing and rejuvenating and even empowering. It connects you directly with the seat of your soul.
What do you do for fun? When was the last time you did it?
Play does not have to be organized, it can be spontaneous. But it is necessary. It recharges your batteries. It connects you to the stuff the Universe is made of. If you are not having at least five minutes of fun every day, you are missing out.
Your assignment for today is to have fun! Jump in a fountain, play tag, do cartwheels, walk on the beach, play on a swing set, chase squirrels… Something! Fun is best, by the way, when it has no practical application.

This is an old piece from 2015. I remember making this and it feels much more recent. Sadly, I’ve been a bit absent from the studio and struggling to hear inspiration. But, looking forward to #ttitd, reconnecting with friends, and reconnecting with myself. https://www.instagram.com/p/B1PwD8-B4Hg/?igshid=14ich2mswxv3q
