How Wild Test (from July 2019)

How Wild test

1 – I am the biggest supporter of Apple Disney INC., think rainforests should burn in hell, and think it would be best to raise my children in a world like the movie Wall-E.

2 – I think Pokemon Go is the best!

3 – I'm just doing what I gotta do in the “rat race” going to my 9 to 5 office job, go work out at the gym, interested in mainstream politics, the home (sports) team, and go with the flow of our modern-day Economy.

4 – Nah, I can't take that #3 rat race. I have to get away for fishing, camping, hiking, and other out-of-the-box activities to keep me sane (usually involving intoxicants/drugs, or other unnatural, usually morally bad things, to be honest)

5 – I'm a DIY enthusiast!

6 – [The author of this test, at this time, or if not understood, fill in this level accordingly, "between the lines"]

7 – I'm into sustainable permaculture, off-grid living, and the likes.

8 – I'm REwilded after being raised in an unfit, less/non-sensical civilization.

9 – I'm REALLY wild like indigenous people BEFORE “civilized” invasion and colonization.

10 – I'm like Mowgli from The Jungle Book, but I was raised by monkeys instead of wolves.

Comments: It feels like I'm around a 6 now, but most likely headed toward between 7 and 8.  I am relatively old, already familiar and comfortable with certain conveniences of living less connected with Nature like a 9 or 10 that maybe my children may be called for, but should at least remember where I stand in this respect.

How virtual or real/present?

0 - metaverse VR

1 - isolated VR

2 - isolated, virtually completely Nature-disconnected way of life heavily dependent on modern technologies from transport to smartphone/devices, able to go through everyday without even going outside, getting everything (including food) delivered to your residence…

3 - less extreme version of 2, where for whatever reason, still go outside, not completely sucked into modern life’s promises of convenience and techno-efficiencies over Life-sense

4 - pretty motivated to succeed and fully engage in modern, tech-driven society, including the occasional-trendy or more moderate recommendations to disengage from too much, screen time, sedentariness, anti-social isolatedness, over-reliance on technology, etc.

5 - pretty well balanced, smartly work with modern society and its demands while trying to also integrate with what makes Life-sense

6 - overall not impressed with the direction of modern, tech-driven society, and just engage as it makes sense to, while trying hard to “go green,” be eco-friendly, “organic”, etc. like

7 - a step beyond 6, like supporting local products/producers, bikes/walking, more local living / neighborhood engagement, Nature excursions, maybe actively engaged in environmental advocacy, very conscious of all your actions and how it affects yourself and the planet

8 - off-grid exemplar like, an even more radical step from 7 to disengage with what is seen as a very misguided way of life marked by modern tech-driven society, but still occasionally come across it

9 - totally off-grid and mostly Nature-based way of life, rarely engaging with modern society’s imbalanced, artificial energies (like for transport or communications)

10 - like an uncontacted tribe, totally isolated from the rest of society that are not as present, in touch with Nature
