We go out into something approaching the wild, forget the world is broken for a day or two, possibly with friends, then go back home, go to bed, and wake up in the morning so we can go to the office again.
Through the next work week or two, we sit in our cubicles and instead of the normal pleading for death we do, we imagine a life free of all of the bullshit. A life truly off the grid, and living the way our genes scream for us to. Then we remember all the things we have to maintain. All the people who would never follow us into the green. All the people who depend on us to continue droning away in this shitty little job that makes us want to kill ourselves. So we make due with these short camping trips, to inject some semblance of normalcy into the horrific, soul-crushing lives we lead.
