i want to build a birdhouse in central Oklahoma using spare wood in my garage.

Where else? Probably not some shithole like Nepal.

Does anyone have experience growing mushrooms in compost? I know it's possible, probably not optimal, but I don't really want to get whole new setups and source some manure or anything. I've read how grains are often the ideal starter so my plan is to just cook a couple cups of barley, let it cool, and then generously mix it into some of my homemade compost (good stuff) with a bunch of grain spawn, keep it moist and covered for a while and see what happens - just hoping for a little feedback on the plan, i don't want to spend hours on YT trying to find someone whose done specifically that.
I can cope with a little failed experiment in the garden here and there but i could get like 10 seed packets for the price of the mushroom spawns I'm a bit less gung-ho about it.
I half-arsed started growing food last year and I've impressed myself with how much I've produced. I'm still a noob but I'm looking to really double down next year and I'm definitely interested in growing some mushies

If someone challenged you to spend the night in the woods using either a pillow fort or blanket fort (NO TENT OR TARP), how would you go about the challenge?

is there anyone more /out/ than him?

Moving to Madison soon, so how would you guys rate Wisconsin? I did quite a bit of fishing there growing up, which was fantastic, but what about everything else? Hiking, homesteading, skiing, etc. I've heard are all pretty good there.

As it turns out these make for awful winter tires and my body on the right side hurts a lot now.
Ice might be evil.

Nobody cares about anything anymore.
Nobody wants to get together anymore.
Nobody does anything without getting paid anymore.
Nobody wants to do anything anymore.

What goes on /out/ here

Hi guys! I've been living in my tiny VW Polo from the start of May this year in order to save on accomodation costs(rent, utilities etc.) and i've been very successful so far, travelling around my country and doing odd jobs through online hubs and such. I've used a butane heater, which puts out 4k-7k BTUs so far, but it's a hassle because of the condensation.(The canisters are very cheap though, like 1,2 Euro in bulk/ each lasting 4-5 hours). My car is too small for a diesel heater setup. Having a kerosene lamp would put out toxic fumes. Using graveyard candles isn't efficient enough. Electric blanket would starve my car battery at -5C. Butane moisture will freeze at -5C, making it difficult to open windows and doors in the morning. Idk, i'm searching for cheap options since in 2-3 days the weather will drop from 4C to -3C and will remain constantly freezing. Is using mord blankets and such really the only solution?
