 if you ever need to take a cold shower, you can make it easier by acclimating
 yourself slowly. The easiest way to do this is to spread water over successive
 parts of your body with your hands - I usually start with my thighs, then
 legs, then belly and butt, then chest, neck, then face. After that you should
 be good to get in the water.
 
 somehow it's less painful if it's applied by a warm hand, and yet it gets you
 comfortable in the cold just the same. curious...

 one of the perks of layering like this is if you ever need to share clothes
 with someone slightly larger than yourself, you can! Doesn't work so well with
 smaller, though.
 
 Also if you get hot indoors because some people think we need to run heaters
 24/7 (???) then you can just remove a layer or two. it's the most versatile
 way to clothe oneself.

 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!

 When you run out of a seasoning, put the empty bottle in a special place that
 you can see before going to the store.
 
 When I carried a purse, I'd put it in there. Could also go in the pocket of a
 sweatshirt or jacket that you wear when doing errands. Maybe even just on the
 ledge next to your shoes. Something that reminds you to get this particular
 seasoning, and no others. It's easy to get others...

 to help cool down in arid environments, have water dripping from a faucet onto   │

 the 4th of July was pretty awesome!
 
 I made two friends, and I let a stranded stranger crash on my couch. I figure
 if I can trust someone I don't know enough for, say, a one-night-stand, then
 why not? don't worry, I used my best judgement. make sure you do, too.
 
 also I got a knife under my pillow. helps a bit.
 
 before the fireworks show, I saw some people under a bridge. I was given a
 water-bottle and a shrimp kebab, and it was delicious! things I overheard:
 
 "no I haven't heard of that, but I'd like to know more"
 
 ... actually that's it, I didn't spend much time there because I had places to
 be. but from what I saw, that is exactly what we need. for now.
 
 how do you best get people to talk? trick them into a family dinner teehee

 I got one desktop
 one laptop desk
 two on the couch
 one in a comfy chair
 one on the bed
 and two outside on the porch
 
 so (1 2 4 5) that's 5 indoors, 6 if they're familiar enough to lounge on my

 Could also pull the hammock and chair in from outside but it might get a
 little cozy. Call it 8 or 9 depending on how close we are.

 Nobody will tell you what to do, at least not until you ask. Be where they can
 see you, and you'll be given a task. If you can do it, say "BRB" - one moment,
 let me handle that for you.
 
 If you can't, say "good luck", and they'll find someone else who can.
 
 It's okay to pass a task off - if someone says "Here's what I need, gotta go"
 then you say "sure, yeah, I'll get someone on it" - then, go find someone to
 do it.

 if you hike slowly enough to not get out of breath, you'll have plenty of time
 to practice :)
 
 could also practice hand whistling:
 https://www.wikihow.com/Hand-Whistle
 if mouth whistling just doesn't work.
 
 but in the short term, maybe a loud CAW or KACAW like you're a crow?
 
 if you're trying to be subtle, like in a public place where people might hear
 you, maybe you could say something people would expect to hear like "wait up!"
 followed by "me too!" or even "GOOD MORNING!" or other greeting, said a little
 bit louder than necessary - people will assume you're either talking to
 someone far away, or they themselves will be far away and will assume the
 voice is coming from someone closer than you. Ideally spoken with the same
 tone and inflection as normal speech, just louder, which is hard to do so make
 sure you practice - a yelling voice sounds different than a speaking voice,
 but a whisper can reach across a room if spoken loud enough.

 if your witch hat has a brim that looks like a circle then you're wearing it
 backwards.
 
 witch hats should fold flat. The angled part should be in front so you only
 have to see a thin slice of reality, that way people are only able to see your
 eyes if you look directly at them.
 
 it adds to the mystique.

 today is a magical day. I can feel it in my fate.
 
 Always remember, having fun is important too! Don't forget to be yourself, and
 keep it together man. If you see a door, you should open it - what's on the
 other side? Love for animals and kindness of the spirit are impossible to
 fake, they always know if you're lying. Not the animals, they can be dumb
 sometimes, but the other thing.
 
 And now for the downsides.
 
 If you find a cursed artifact, please don't throw it in the river. It might
 ask you to, but please don't. Much better to destroy it by melting it down (if
 it's metal, which is common as metal lasts long enough to become forgotten) or
 convince it that it's a recently deceased person being buried (helps if you
 know the creator).
 
 If none of that applies to you, don't worry. Eat something healthy, drink a
 decent amount of water, and maybe exercise a bit.
 
 Oh, and it can't hurt to ask.

 you shouldn't overexpose yourself to things regularly. Think of it like you're

 you find, but only enough to contrast with your bright.

 You wouldn't fault a knight for questing! But the peasant or the merchant is

 kings. Alas, that we couldn't find "holy thimbles" that could be distributed
 throughout the populace for the same effect at a decentralized scale, thus
 empowering the masses to transcend their mortality.
 
 Or better yet, task those knights with helping cats out of trees or carrying
 furniture or painting the old barn or carving statues for public places or
 performing great works of art in public squares or engaging in honorable
 jousts (everyone's invited) or traveling abroad and learning the ways of the

 you need one of those strainers that fits inside a pot. or you could probably
 jury rig something with a plate and a cup, but make sure they're heat

 boil some water, put the eggs in the strainer for 11 minutes with a lid on,
 and then cover them in cold water for a bit. boom easy peasy.

 what if farmers markets but every day and staffed with people who want to hang
 out and pass out food for free
 
 "a truck just arrived with a bunch of zuchinnis, can you help me load them
 into that tend over there?"
 
 "hello bus stop people, I was just at the farmers market and I was wondering
 if you want some cherries? make sure you throw the pits at that tesla over
 there [jk if you're in a place that does this, the tesla 90% guaranteed has
 one of those "I bought this before I knew Elon was crazy!" type of bumper
 stickers]"
 
 "hi do you know where the watermelons are? Oh, they aren't in season? darn
 well I love watermelons and I think some greenhouse space should be spent on
 growing them for watermelon enthusiasts like me"
 
 alternatively, farmers "markets" on every street like they do in Mexico where
 every time a truck with produce drives past they stop and say "hey want some
 raspberries" until they run out
 
 then people can walk past and get food, or drive past because suburbs.

 if you wear a quilt upon your skin as you sleep each night, you will
 inevitably find that it has grown yellow from the sweat, that it is worn from
 the friction, that it frays from the toenails, and it thins from the moisture.
 You'll need to wash it, which damages it still, and soon you'll find yourself
 replacing it - this heirloom you deliver to landfill.
 
 but, if you wear a sheet underneath, you'll find that all you need to wash and
 replace is a thin piece of fabric.
 
 democracy is a quilt, society is the stuffing that keeps you warm, and voting
 is the sheet underneath that works to keep things clean.
 
 unless, of course, you sneak into your ex-husbands house while he's at work
 and spread grease on-top of the sheet. If you fill his warmth with butter he
 might find it harder to vote his way out of a damaged quilt.
 
 the rich are the butter, and I'll leave the other question to the reader -
 who's doing the sneaking? why are they so interested in fraying our quilt?
 
 oh right, they want to prove their god

 if you live in a place where it rains a lot you pretty much HAVE TO pick up
 any secret notes you find. Otherwise they'll get waterlogged overnight.
 
 Sometimes I like to put them somewhere shaded from the sky, sometimes I like
 to show them to a friend (but the friend never takes them, booooo) and
 sometimes I just keep them.
 
 "ah but aren't you worried about messing up drug deals and stuff" no, because
 most of the time "secret notes" are like "eggs milk bread chips salsa cheese"
 and it's like "hmmmm what could it mean"
 
 there's like, 2% of the time when they say something cool like "I know what
 you did" or "all your base are belong to us" or whatever and those are fun to
 hunt for. I usually try and put those somewhere shelted so they don't have to
 leave their habitat - sometimes it's hard to drop them as the author so they
 just sorta go wherever, but as a random passer-by I have the luxury of saying
 "HMMMM now where could THIS ONE go?" and that's nice because I can put them
 under an umbrella or whatevers rite

 alternatively, when you initiate an SSH session it sends you a randomized
 public key whose private key is the password that you need to login. By
 decrypting the string of text it sent you and sending it back (plus the
 password at the end or whatever) you can ensure secure authentication without
 bothering with the passwordless keys which are wayyyyyy more trouble than
 they're worth and lack the "something you know" authentication method.

 jesus rose from the dead because one of his friends copied his mannerisms and

 darkness one day and take what you say in their own direction.
 
 frankly I prefer the padme amidala approach where like, if the handmaiden or
 the queen are slain then who cares you got another one right over there. But
 two is enough for trust and narratives being delivered to thirteen year olds,
 but less so for reliability and the ability to "trinity" yourself to different

 I think it'd be neat, being one of thirteen, because thirteen is such a wacky

 you know how SSH password login is deprecated because the password needs to be
 transmitted in cleartext or whatever?
 
 what if we just... required two passwords?
 
 the first initiates the conversation, and sets up an encrypted line. It
 doesn't matter if anyone sees the first password because they'll get a new set
 of encrypted keys, meaning each session automatically is encrypted in a
 different, randomized way.
 
 the second password is the one that actually authenticates you.

 Your body is a river, from your mouth to your exits
 Throughout there are many pathways and shores
 As the tide goes up, the color of concentration goes up
 And all four of you are made clear
 
 Each act of consumption
 is a ride down the river,
 though broken into slivers,
 and changed beyond recognition
 
 The color is what defines the third eye
 and beauty is beheld, what joys to be felt
 While secrecy is bold, it's often held
 So worry less and just go with the fold

 if someone does not consent to helping you bear their emotional burdens, but
 you insist anyway... that seems to be the narcissism you mentioned
 
 if someone does consent, then they're helping a friend. Or they're being a
 therapist for them.
 
 sometimes we can't help but be overcome by emotions. In those moments I find
 it's usually best to retreat to a safe space and hide out for a bit until the
 storm passes, then maybe return to the world a bit more fatigued but less...
 spicy.
 
 those moments show that you need more emotional support, both from yourself
 and from others. If the people in your life cannot help you, and you cannot
 help yourself... then yeah you're probably gonna hurt people around you. Plan
 as such and figure out how to still be a good person, it's up to each of us to
 do it in our own way.
 
 ... at least, that's how I look at it for my own life, feel free to disagree
 or anything

 gonna go on a walk. my cat is missing because I let her out last night. I'm
 worried sick! this morning I almost puked all over my toes.
 
 she'll probably show up when it gets dark. I bet she's hunkered down
 somewhere. Ah, well, might as well walk around my neighborhood actively
 searching bushes and such. Why not? It's not like I got anything else to do
 right now.

 to improve your "cat-petting" abilities, try to imagine that the wall in front
 of you is the most interesting thing in the world - stare at anything else
 besides the cat, and look at them in your periphary. Occasionally you can look
 back, but the idea is that this way they will be able to look at your face
 without painful eye contact.
 
 cats are autistic - they don't look at you unless you're looking somewhere
 else.
 
 most people stare at cats when they are engaging with them, and totally ignore
 them otherwise.

 if they want to talk to you they might play a game you really like

 it's always a good idea to wear multiple layers, especially when it's decently
 cold out.
 
 make sure they're different colors. Ideally, one layer totally black, the
 other completely colorful.
 
 then if you ever need to you can strip one layer and become someone else.
 They're just clothes, they grow on trees in stores.
 
 speaking of stores, if you're ever going to do anything spicy, make sure you
 wear that outfit exactly once, unless it's all black. Jeans are okay too since
 they all usually look pretty similar.

 in a place organized like capitalism, you go to university for four years (if
 you're lucky) and then work until you can't anymore. Then you're taken care of
 (if you're lucky) until you depart from this earth in peace.
 
 in my home, a home I've never lived, you'd stay at that university for as long
 as you'd like. you'd work whenever you liked, and if enough work wasn't being
 done then working would be made to feel more likable. then, when you're old as
 dirt (or whenever you'd like) you can depart from this earth as you please.

 if you'd like I can give you a lua script which will take your fediverse
 archive and turn it into a pdf which you can edit or print or whatever. Might
 be a fun diversion from posting. You can reply to yourself, add
 clarifications, change some things, put things in a new light, add context,
 etc... before you know it you'll have something printable. Could even pull out
 your best stuff and make zines.
 
 should require just a little configuration to suit your setup. That's part of
 how I stay "productive" without posting all the time.

 tell me again why goods and services are priced according to how easy they are
 to make, and not by how many more of them we could make considering the
 current estimated amount of resources on earth?
 
 even wood runs out, when the phosphorous is gone. but take heart, for human
 ingenuity brings with it ever-increasing capabilities for accessing new
 resources. when the sun goes silent, it will not be because it burnt out, but
 rather because we surrounded it with parts of our home.
 
 and yes, it is more complicated. "how easy they are to make compared to how
 much people want them while utilizing the cheapest and worst resources and
 craftsmanship that can be passed of as quality by shiny marketing that appeals
 to our vapid human senses" is a bit closer, but still not comprehensive.

 Here's what you say to clover next week:
 
 "hey. Wanna get coffee sometime? I need some trouble in my life. And I dunno,
 maybe you need a witch.
 
 You live in Tanasbourne, I live in Rock Creek. We're within walking distance
 of each other, so we might as well say hi right? I'm free whenever, just let
 me know if you'd like to meet me."

 Humans were not designed for repetitive labor. You can see this manifest in
 the way our muscles regrow after being stressed, strained, and trained. If you
 do 500 pushups, your pushup muscles will be pretty exhausted and unusable for
 the next day or two. However your abs will probably be fine, your legs too.
 This shows that humans are meant to exercise different muscle groups on
 different days, like one day catching fish, the next plucking fruit, the next
 chopping wood, the next running with wolves.
 
 Humans are not designed to do the same thing every day. It hurts not just our
 bodies, but our minds as well. Repetitive thought patterns such as "welcome to
 [store] can I take your order" dig grooves in our brain that are difficult to
 unlearn. And the abstraction of a man to a machine in the hands of capital is
 profane and strange to the watchers within. But hey, gotta do what ya gotta
 do, rents gotta get paid, and nobody wants to scrub toilets. But it's gotta
 get done if you want hospitals and supercomputers.

 @user-138 if you don't want feedback then why don't you just... not open the
 replies? leave them unread? if you feel the need to justify your actions (such
 as not reading replies to your controversial posts) then somewhere deep down
 you feel like those actions are unjustified, and needing an explanation. which
 makes your point feel less valid to others, since even you don't believe in it
 enough to guarantee it to be the truest expression of your soul.

 Passive water purification:
 
 You know those solar panel arrays that aim mirrors at a large central
 receptor? Yeah, like that, except pointed at a channel of salt-water (with a
 grate that keeps fish out and such) - either collect the steam as distilled
 water, or use it to turn a generator. Or both. Clear the channel of solids
 every night.
 
 Want to go faster? Add more mirrors!
 
 Free clouds of pure water, which is better than the cloud seeding that just
 kicks up seawater into the atmosphere. Seawater that has dissolved micro
 plastics in it that might break down into carbonated atmosphere.

 one of my favorite things to do is play overwatch
 
 nerf blast arena is fun, but not the same. different kind of fun. actually fun.
 overwatch was... practice, for different ways of thinking
 
 I liked to play Tracer and always put my distant target behind my main target.
 that way I was applying pressure to the frontline while also chipping away at a
 potential loop-around target. Always looking for angles on low-health-targets,
 while firing their pistols as often as they can.
 
 when playing as Mercy, I would do the same but inversed.
 I'd put my frontline between me and between the dps foes.
 usually, try and put my tank on-top of their dps, and put their tanks in firing
 range (but distant enough to not deal too much damage) (give space)

 @user-831 
 
 those billionaires are using their money as a weapon to "vote" toward what
 companies they think capitalism would most grow from. Unfortunately for us,
 they often aren't very efficient because they're only looking at what sells.
 
 human interest is not the only factor to optimize for, and yet that's the only
 one they're incentivized to.
 
 kinda makes me think that the only reason to replace them would be to
 institute something that could not be incentivized because it was more
 objective or decentralized.
