The poor weather came just as attendance and activities were beginning to peak, and forced the cancellation of multiple large scale art burns Friday night.

“No driving is permitted on playa except for emergency vehicles,” event organizers said in a 5 a.m. statement. “If you are in (Black Rock City), please shelter in place and stay safe."

They added separately: “If you are in BRC, conserve food and water, shelter in a warm space.”


They are covered in mud, little food, not allowed to leave, and bathrooms are spent. they might have to air drop in aid :lol:

Did enjoy watching the Tribal Police deal with the protesters who apparently did not know they were on sovereign tribal land and got a bit of a rough ride.

I know people who started going to this thing circa1990. They are horrible, horrible neoliberal hedonists cloaked in New Age Mysticism.

A true neoliberal doesn't flaunt it.

Quote:
The theme of Burning Man 2023 is "Animalia", celebrating the "animal world and our place in it".[6] Organizers closed Burning Man's gates before the event due to Hurricane Hilary.[7] The beginning of the festival was disrupted when protesters blocked the highway to the Black Rock Desert asking for organizers to ban private planes, single-use plastics, and limit its power usage. Four people were arrested.[8] A box representing war-torn Ukraine entitled "Phoenix" was burned at the festival, the work of fabricators in Kyiv and Chicago. Before its burning, the box played audio of explosions and air raid sirens as an opera singer performed a Ukrainian song.[9] An estimated 73,000 people attended the festival at a cost of US$575 per person.


all these people deserve to die

aren't these people who go there fairly young? they're like the young preppy kids with all of dads money? or maybe they earned their money quick and just blow it on these kind of festivals? Like that online doc on netflix where they rented out that island and it went to shit.
