I wont get into personal details but im going off grid soon, gonna be homeless and I need advice. Nobody will know im gone. I give up on society for now. I was recently homeless, and it wasnt that bad. It was actually kinda cozy once you got in the groove.

my phone which will be de-googled, de-spywared and routed through tor (its obviously still not fully secure ik, its a phone ffs) and ill be pirating everything and using anonymous social media apps like invidious, 4chan and nitter. No replacement for discord unfortunatley so...

Im taking a rocket stove I made out of cans, 2 64 fluid ounce thermal bottles, a battery that will keep my phone charged for up to 3 days and takes wall outlet plugs with 90w max output, a sleeping bag (dont see the point of a tent as it doesnt rain or snow here so), 30 pounds of food fats teas and spices that will fill my micros lasting 2 weeks before I gotta refill then (im on food stamps so I can get food easily), 2 cooking pots, 7 outfits for various weather conditions, an umbrella, 2 sporks, a first aid kits supplies, some lighters and a fuck ton of weed.

Any survival and homelessness advice and tips? I need to buy a silcock key as I dont have one yet. I dont have that much money, so... Also I am aware that there are many, many keys for common locks to stuff like vending machines. Ill focus on that stuff later.

Rule 1. Don't do fucking drugs.
Rule 2. Don't do alcohol.
Rule 3. Other hobos are your enemies. There's no comradeship. It's the jungle and they're protecting their territory. Be mad, be angry at them. They are not your friends, they are competition. Never see yourself in the same side as them.
Rule 4. Act like a gentleman to normal people, pretend you're Hannibal Lecter, be corteous, explain your situation and that you need help, sell them a story of underdogs rising back to the top.
Rule 5. Stop being a hobo ASAP. It's hell.

There was an Ed Stafford documentary series about being a hobo on discovery channel. Look it up.

I won't read wall-of-text threads that can't quickly get to the point.
