Social media seems to be laughing its ass off about this tragedy, is it because the folks at burning man are perceived as frivolous hippies or something? Everyone I’ve ever met who was a regular burning man attendee has been a solid human being with strong morals, personally and financially responsible, a career. Upstanding members of society for sure. I guess all some people know is the sensationalized drugs and sex. A person died. This is a tragedy for an event that brings positivity into the world. Kind of annoyed.

      There is a really adorable contingent of old people there. One of their camps is called "The Shack of Sit. They provide a shack… where you can go and sit. They also do the “little black dress parade” where all these 65+ men and women wear short and sexy black dresses and play marching band instruments on their way around promenade. It’s so sweet.
