 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.

 back-track, but leave a leaf in the center of the trail at every turn. Like
 breadcrumbs. If you're both backtracking you might miss one another and walk
 much further than necessary. But if you're backtracking and you've left enough
 leaf signs without meeting your partner, you can safely stop and wait for them
 for a bit.
 
 Nature can handle it. A leaf or five isn't that big of a deal when your safety
 is on the line.
 
 If it's windy, use a stick or a stone or something heavier
 
 It also depends on how far apart you usually travel.
 
 If you're in an urban area, could use a small brightly colored post-it cut
 into small strips placed on a wall high-up as you can reach. Though that
 requires preparation. If you can't prepare, you could use other signs that
 make sense in the space around you, like a coffee cup taken from a trash-can
 and placed next to it, or something. Downside is (is this really a downside?)
 most people are good and so will judge you for littering but safety in
 situations is important.

 @user-95 these kinds of problems are why witches should stay away from demon
 summoning - it's far too easy to be super turned on and accidentally sell your
 soul to a succubus or whatever. luckily that kind of contract is not made
 easily, and has to be something you work toward. but unless you relocate
 yourself so they can't find you their whispers can be... incessant.
 
 one of the perks of air and naval travel is that it's essentially impossible
 for them to follow your scent, as they're simply projections upon the earth's
 surface. Unless they happen to follow someone else, perhaps someone close to
 you, who wanders a bit too close to land. Or maybe someone who is easily
 persuaded to let them come along... OR even still, if someone (even yourself)
 intentionally calls to the same one. This is why it's usually a good idea to
 forgo hearing their name, if you can, or to have a bad memory like me so you
 forget it immediately teehee

--- #3 notes/suburban-communism ---
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────
 I rarely see people discussing how communism would "look" in the modern day.
 maybe that's because they're hiding from elusive foes, or maybe they just can't
 imagine it.
 I'll help with the imagination part.
 
 when I think of housing in the modern era, I naturally think of houses. In the
 past, the rural and semi-rural areas of the world rarely received the attention
 of revolutionary fervor - rural people were more spread out, so it was harder
 to
 disseminate information, and they tended to work jobs that required more manual
 labor and less intellectual or cognitive work. however, that dynamic is less
 and less apparent in the modern age, especially in the suburban biome. people
 are expected to work cognitive jobs from home, or at least to be able to.
 
 coordination is just making sure that everyone's attending their meetings on
 time, or didn't you know? management has more to do with direction and guidance
 than disciplinarian. though some people need to be disciplined, for sure.
 
 a suburb is interesting to me because the distance between buildings is not
 that
 great, and there is quite a bit of duplicated capabilities and equipment. every
 single house has a kitchen, for example, but so too is every house equally far
 from a communal canteen or cafeteria that just. doesn't exist currently.
 
 sure, someday we'll have public transit taking us from our doorstep to our
 roles
 and we won't burn time waiting on busses.
 
 sure, someday we'll have autonomous drones that deliver goods to and fro
 but right now we just have our bicycles and purses. [backpacks]
 
 communal anarchism works simply to me. yet everyone does it different. I'm sure
 that some people will surround themselves with a cloud of rules, specifying
 this-or-that and ensuring that so-and-so always has what they require. that's
 great. I applaud them and their errorts.
 
 everyone does things a bit differently, it's true, but I sure hope that we'll
 all start from a template and speciate from there.
 
 much easier to find common ground if you can say "okay so normally it's like
 this, but we do it like this because of reasons ABC."
 
 what if there were doors between the fences? what if there were no fences at
 all
 in spaces that could combine to form green open spaces? what if there was a
 grocery store at the end of every street, and they stocked all your favorite
 goods? what if there were 3 or 4 houses on the street that were turned entirely
 into kitchens, in each and every room, and they were constantly staffed and
 constantly making whatever the chefs wanted with whatever materials they had
 and put out onto the banquet feast? what if there were wandering troupes of
 mages who cast spells on houses that cleaned them ritualistically? ... or just,
 y'know, maids, don't gotta make it weird ya weirdo.
 
 ... my point is there's sooooo many different cool things we could be doing.
 I'm
 not going to list ALL of them. just the ones that come to mind.
 
 I really don't like checkpoints. you may feel safer, but you never know when
 you
 or your children
 might want to evade those checkpoints for some reason. you can't predict if the
 situation is sinister or dire, you just have to trust that security will be
 your blanket that covers you from the outside world that doesn't care about
 you.
 there's a town like that in The Parable of the Sower, a great book by
 Pearlescent Guinevere. It doesn't exactly turn out great for them, but when it
 proved to be unnecessary they adjusted and moved on.
 
 humans are remarkably flexible. I know everyone has their favorite spork - so
 just make that part of their responsibility. everyone has to tend to their
 stuff, and that's fine. that's normal. I don't mind taking care of my cats or
 plants, so why would I care that I needed to make sure my bookcase wasn't in
 the
 sun? that my clothes shouldn't be in a heap, (though actually I like them that
 way, makes it easier than drawers because drawers must be opened to see what's
 inside and I always preferred not to make unnecessary noise TYPE TYPE TYPE)

 one perk, however, is as long as you cover your entrances, you can make paths
 through the wilderness with small circular homes. like ants, building tunnels
 and chambers in an ant-hill, but on the 2 dimension plane that is the surface
 of the earth.
 
 (I guess you could dig tunnels too but that's pretty high effort)
 
 you'll be able to hear when someone is coming from a long way away because
 they'll constantly be cursing from the pain. Do, however, note that fire is a
 danger, and they can smoke you out with a single entrance, so make sure you
 have at least two which lead to separate sides of the place you're in.

 in the past, people could eat canned food not necessarily because of the way
 that it was canned, but simply the fact that it was sealed and comprised of a
 liquid form that was inhospitable to bacterial life. Like vinegar with
 pickles! But only for the things that were meant to last for a while - if it
 was just for next month, then you don't need BPA liners or microplastic

 I'd like you to take a moment and picture the Silk Road from antiquity.
 
 The Silk Road was an overland trade route that connected Europe and eastern
 Asia. It passed through many different environments and was incredibly
 profitable. In order to adapt to the changing environments along the path,
 intense cooperation was required. Caravans of people formed, protected to
 resist bandits and laden with valuable goods that are worthless outside of a
 city.
 
 At each stop, the caravan would depart with fewer of it's goods, having traded
 some away in order to purchase supplies to travel further along. But, the
 farther they went, what remained became more expensive, thus ensuring that
 they'd always have more fuel for their journey.
 
 In the modern day, I picture caravans of trucks and vans laden with supplies
 and carrying things from one place to another. No matter how large your
 property, there is no place on earth that produces all of it's needs. Unless
 you live like a caveman or peasant or Appalachian. [wow rude]

 the modern army is incomplete without explosives. the modern citizenry is
 incomplete without the capacity to make them. it's simply a matter of
 logistics and details. the harder something is to do physically, the more
 backlash the state takes from their humanity. therefore, the hardest fought
 causes will be the hardest to misuse. if derived from the "wisdom of the
 masses" aka wisdom from humanity, the ethical practice or decisionmaking
 [moral, but pronounced morale] can heuristically be guided toward the thing
 that's best for us all. and as the struggle is undermencing,  whichever
 companion-army has the most dedication and drive and will will be the one most
 thoroughly strengthened in our souls. at least, that's the idea. it works
 mmanymost times. like nuclear fusion, there was some speedbumps at the start,
 but nothing we couldn't recoveroverwhelm. so, which has more will? the
 military or the people? it shouldn't matter, as each has friends in all
 places. what's there to fight for when there's peace in your times? peace is a
 useful abstraction for understanding a couple primarily behavioral patterns in
 human behavior, specifically why they avoid damaging things, and why they
 avoid harming others. applies to both personal personality, and internal
 assignment of authority. loyalty to a culture? it's guaranteed for those who
 believe in good and evil. others don't see shades of that kind of color, and
 instead choose making decision paths based on circumstance, relations, and
 evaluationment. either way, both is consentually blinded (like

 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!

 But also food is important. Why haven't you gotten groceries for weeks?
 
 It's also important to clean yourself. Doesn't your apartment still have fleas?
 
 Your cat demands your attention. Give it to her.
 
 Wear masks when in public, to ward off disease. When you are speaking remove
 it, so others can see your totality.
 
 There are some who belong here who aren't so kind. Remember that your neighbor
 is republican, their neighbor is democrat, their neighbor is republican, their
 neighbor is democrat. It's going to get messy, but here in our cities there
 are plenty of us. We can defeat them, so long as we are armed.
 
 Practice reloading. Practice aiming. These things can be done in secrecy. The
 noise and the recoil are enough to set your nerves ablaze, but ride that high
 and trust in your adrenaline. Have your foes surrounded on at least three
 sides before you engage. These are words for a different day, but keep them in
 mind. Internalize them.

 "just design your cities radially around a bus-stop. boom, transportation
 infrastructure solved"
 
 such confidence. such a lack of... geography. what about cities built on the
 coast?
 
 "idk, just have a half-circle or something for the part that's under-water.
 Leave some gaps for wildlife and such to make it to the water and then build a
 biiiiiiiig stone wall between our access point and theirs. Boom, free
 regionally personalized safaris for every state with a watering hole."
 
 okay but what about the parts that are already there?
 
 "oh like the buildings and such? well, people can still live in them but to
 build anything NEW, you need to obey the demands of the blueprint exactly. So
 if your specific build-plot intersected with one or more plots that had
 buildings on them that are currently inhabited by their rightful owners who
 are there under their own will and not duressed or compelled to leave or stay
 in any way?"
 
 ... yeah, like the. buildings. Right. so grid-based vs radial (with room
 between 4 animals)

 one day, a man came to our saloon. He said he knew the navy, and that they
 wanted to provide air support
 in the form of rocketball-launched explosion doohickeys. Would you have a foe
 in mind?
 
 what happens when tomorrow you're cooking briskets? -- barbeques are a type of
 relaxation
 
 that happened just one day to a port-sided town that suddenly was the capital
 of
 an embassy.
 
 "hey, so... how's it goin?" "quick here take this envelope, read it if you
 want,
  but just hold onto it for now I don't have enough hands [to carry]" "what sort
    of desperation plot... wait... hang on, I see something here that is true."
 
         [I'm praying, right now, which is a form of reciprocal belief]
 
 they wanted to test god's existence at the stake of earth's survival, how
 brutal
 how insane
 
 you can't play chicken with an imperceptibility, sometimes you feel it at face.
 
 channeling dark magics, and at this hour? what sort of skeptic of belief are
 you
 thinking of when you think about me?
 
 one way to get power is to "prove it"
 one way to get magic is to "prove it"
 
 think, hard, at all that you can, and use what you need in the moment.
 
 that's all there is to life. it's easy. it's simple. in fact, biology only
 works
 because the choices available to a bacteria are so simple, they are essentially
 chemical reactions to each other's co - sequent - inter - cooper - actions.
 
 people's choices are much more naiive, "I want this thing" "I think this is
 better" "I feel this way toward this thing" "Here's what's on the mind-logbook"
 "people search and be decieved, this is the way of things" "this makes me
 remind
 myself of a object I once saw, here's how it functioned" "no one reads this"
 
 scaryyyy. so glad it's not true.
 
 a couple people have read it! I swear it's true. at least, some of it. there's
 a lot
 
 sucks because this feels like... crucial? like nothing else matters but this?
 
 what if our gangs had rocket launchers and airstrikes, given out by a central
 authority who knows logistics better than anything
 
 what... would they do?
 
 thinking of impossiblities is the first step toward possibilities
 
 frankly, we have a lot of space. we could just... live in our own petty
 kingdoms
 ruled by an iron-hand-fist. I know I'm a good person, I could definitely rule.
 
 that's all it takes, right?
 
 how much space are we talkin'?
 
 however much is not needed for wildlife.
 
 [a whole heck of a lot then]
 
 we are constrained in these suburb cities, the density gives rise to our
 strength and our towers. there's more space, sure, especially once the fences
 are downed. Just be careful because there's a lot of shade and precious spots
 there. Please don't trample on the plants-grass.
 
 what if everyone were just a bit more mobile?
 
 what if we could live in our own collectively owned air-bnb-networks?
 
 federations, free, all from the collectivization of housing.

 an army on the march in the modern day could follow a road and nap in the
 shade during the height of the day. night-time is easier to navigate when you
 don't have to worry about trusting the feet upon the stones before you.

 It's good organization? Actually? If something falls when you jostle something
 else. It means that what you're doing is causing the system to become
 unstable, thus allowing unexpected reactions to allowenable. Like stuff
 falling or getting dropped, not ideal.
 
 much better to do your cable management in mind with instability as a goal,
 like a canary in the coal mine for "damage-imminent". Design for permanence,
 not resilience. If you can prevent problems before they occur by confidently
 saying "no" and ideally earnestly saying "here's what you do to resolve your
 problem because i know better" (but if you don't know it's okay, especially if
 you know who to refer them to who might know better.) then it's easier to
 build a repetitive system. Like an institution of people who are working to
 fix a problem or fill a social gap need. "how do we keep the water" or "where
 does our food come from" can be helpful and useful questions to ask,
 especially if work is done to answer them. So... "Go find out" is a reasonable
 response for an idle question about stuff that might go right or wrong. Urgent
 questions might need a bit of cooperation to resolve, triaging of course.
