 cats are sooooooo cute. I want to adopt like, 15 more~! They can all stay in
 their own houses, though. no need to put them all in one place.

 in the past, logistics were often carried by horses.
 
 without the additional speed and terrain-overcoming-capability, it's difficult
 to ensure a party on the march could have enough supplies of critical items
 like food and water.
 
 especially water.
 
 natural sources can only be trusted if you're in the mountains. if the river
 flows past farmland, or places with wide-open areas or forests that animals
 might congregate, you're more and more likely for it to be contaminated.
 dysentery kills faster than dehydration because you poop out all your hydration.
 
 boiling water only goes so far, eventually you'll find yourself in a desert.
 
 hopefully at that point you can rely on car-based infrastructure to deliver
 truckloads of goods. and remember - busses can ferry goods around in a city
 just as well as they can carry workers. Might need to remove a seat or three,
 and make sure the weight tolerances are in order. helps if you disperse it
 throughout the front, middle, and back.
prefer longer lines, with "hairs" spreading off to find places where water can be drawn from - even if it's a house with a spigot. then, carry it back to the long, 4 person wide line.  might be unfeasible though. depending on terrain, experience, etc. plus it's a lot to carry back.  could travel near a road so that people could hit gas stations and get bottled waters?  could have people drive around and ahead and drop packages of bottled water like geocaching style. near roads that intersect with the path of travel.

 yeah I thought so too but I didn't know how to tell!

 └─────────────────────────┘
 
 
 best way to stay hydrated is to take small little sips every 15-30 minutes
 rather than down a huuuuuge bottle once every 6 hours
 
 the reason is that your body absorbs water like a sponge might. but, it's a
 slow-acting sponge, and the water only stays in your blood for so long before
 it's filtered by the kidneys.
 
 meaning you're only hydrated for a short while, and then you gotta whiz
 
 meanwhile if you take little sips often throughout the day, you'll always have
 sweat to cool you down, and you'll need to pee a lot less - probably only
 enough to remove materials your body can't use from your food and such. also
 waste-products from your cells as they work.
 
 which is to say you'll pee less, and it'll be less and less useful for um
 "recycling" if things get dire. so... become un-piss-drinkable! you'll be
 healthier anyway!

 if you happen to glance out your window and see like, 40 trans or punks outside  │
 depending on where you are you're likely to say hi or open fire.                 │
 like, just the impact of such an intense visual for some of the more restful     │
 parts of society might trigger the kind of reaction that someone who's woken up  │
 by a scary dream, bolt of lightning, or like, forcible police arrest in the      │
 middle of the night type of thing might display.                                 │
 like, they'd probably have an instinctual defensive reaction because, like,      │
 what else are you gonna do the tiger's literally here to eat your pinky toes     │
 and your kid's toes too                                                          │
 so, keep that in mind. maybe send the fit nurse who's friendly and good with     │
 talking to people. or like, a schoolteacher who's kind of un-hatable.            │
 diplomacy is important! but also, like... know your audience, right? like if     │
 you're in the third reich, you probably want to show strength. or, like, avoid   │
 that part of town, and save it for your allies-in-training to handle. use your   │
 best judgement. meet in middle.                                                  │

 my ex would absolutely fall in love with you
 
 like, in a good way. he's a good person.
 
 he did just break up with me, though. so maybe wait a bit before I hook you up
 if you're into that.
