We traveled out to the Mojave Desert to roleplay the end of the world with four thousand other people at Wasteland Weekend. At first glance, this looks like a Mad Max fan festival (and it sort of is), but it's also so much more than that.

Hey, Smiles from the Faceless Merchants here! You didn't actually cheat by forging a signature (well, technically you did); there's supposed to be a sign out front of the camps we send you to if they're not available for trading, so you're (kinda) good! Give your self back a morality point Carrion! And yeah, the whole point of the merchant quest is to help newcomers get involved with the Wasteland experience! I'm real happy it worked so well for you! I hope to see you both next year! P.S. There is a system for the trade route, but getting Wastelanders to do anything more complicated than drink and yell is like herding cats.

While I'm here, my own philosophy on Wasteland Weekend is basically: It's an immersive event, somewhere between a LARP and a (p)re-enactment event with a hearty dash of desert festival, and so a lot of the best Wastelanders really are the folks who are willing to collaborate with each other and make a bigger bolder future. The Wasteland is not kind to people who are into more toxic flavors of rugged individualism!

Hope you decide to come back next year, it was funny seeing myself in the background of so many shots. Glad I wasn’t filmed outright, if my students found out I wouldn’t live it down. Just be careful giving your pens out to strange men in gold mask ok? You’re always welcome to come back and fuck you!

As someone who attended for the first time in 2023. Very much recommend it. Life changing experience. If I could give one tip. It would be to let people know you are a first year. Usually they will try to go out of their way to let you in on activities and get you involved. Along with some camps and people will give you things to say, help you start bartering, or add to you costume/outfit.
