 does anyone know of a recipe that uses only flour, butter, yeast, eggs, and
 salt? It doesn't need to use every ingredient, but those are easy to acquire.
 
 ideally with the ability to include nuts or dried fruit or something else
 nutritious.
 
 the requirements include the ability to cook it using only a rice-cooker (or
 crock pot, or other kind of slow-cooking ceramic dish which heats from all
 directions at once)
 
 in addition, it must NOT need kneading. It must be able to be cooked passively
 without attention. The fewer steps, the better.

 don't know how to make decent rice and beans?
 
 get the heartiest vegetable soup you can find from the store and cook some
 jasmine rice and lentils in a pot. You should be able to do both in the same
 pot. cook them like noodles by boiling some water and adding the rice and
 beans. add some salt to the water. make it salty like the sea.
 
 then drain the rice and beans once you taste test them to be done. be patient.
 add the hearty, savory soup to the mix alongside a big hunk of butter.
 
 boom, protein, calories, nutrients. all in one meal. the more vegetables in
 the soup, the better, and if you're feeling fancy you can sautee some of your
 own instead of soup by dicing them into inch large chunks and throwing them in
 a pan on medium heat with some butter and whatever seasonings you want for a
 while, stirring only when they start to stick. Just enough to brown them, not
 burn them.
 
 butter and salt and garlic and boullion are your friends. don't do too much,
 if you notice them a lot then it's too much.

 did you know that you can steam eggs instead of hard boiling them? it's much
 easier, and the eggs are easier to peel as well.
 
 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
 resistant.
 
 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.

 rice in the rice maker with butter, worcestersire sauce (not too much!) and
 salt
 
 when it's done, flake hard boiled eggs (2 eggs per cup of rice) on top and
 douse with a small-mediumish amount of soyaki
 
 could do well with either a packet of dehydrated vegetables or perhaps some
 diced carrots or green onions. Honestly carrots go well in most things.

 I love cooking. My favorite food is "melange" also called "gruel" by the less
 culinary people in my life. It consists primarily of a rice or noodle base,
 plus a bunch of other ingredients (usually sauteed) that are quite nutritious.
 Then, you season in a way such that it tastes delicious and savory and BOOM
 you have the perfect food.
 
 Well, not as good as steamed eggs, but still pretty good.

 when you run out of an ingredient you use often (like butter, seasoning, or
 flour) put the container by your shoes.
 
 then, when you go to the store, look through all the empty containers and make
 a mental list.
 
 when you get home and are putting things away, if you forgot something just
 leave the old container by the door. everything else can be recycled / trashed.

 If you want to learn to cook, start with a sandwich. Then spaghetti sauce from
 a jar. Then sautee some vegetables and throw them on top of rice. Then go to
 the store, read the back of a tasty-looking package, and make the recipe it
 suggests.
 
 Then you know how to cook. Don't bother with online recipes.
 
 Also, more butter, more salt.

 boil with just enough water for the noodles to start sticking to the pan once

 don't strain the noodles. have just enough water left to have a thin sauce.

 Highly recommend "Better than Boullion" - if your recipe involves boiling
 water, unless it's tea there's a good chance that some broth-in-a-jar could
 make it taste better.
 
 Did you know you can boil oats like noodles? Yeah that's... that's basically
 how you make oatmeal. Use less water than with noodles, though.
 
 EDIT: Also, add some bits of nutrition like dried fruit, nuts that have been
 soaking in clean water overnight, nutritional yeast, dehydrated soup mix
 (delicious), or frozen vegetables.

 When you run out of a seasoning, put the empty bottle in a special place that

 When I carried a purse, I'd put it in there. Could also go in the pocket of a

 the broth they sell at the store is way too thin. boullion is much better
 because it's so concentrated. think of it as "essence of X" when you have
 "broth of vegetables" or "broth of carrots and onions" or whatever... can help
 make it easier to cook something decent by using general flavors

 congratulations, you never need to adventure again. your necessities are taken
 care of.
 
 ah, but that'd make for a pretty boring life, wouldn't it? perhaps, depending
 on your personality type.
 
 but you're not one to stick around doing nothing but eating, drinking, and
 being merry.
 
 no, you're an adventurer, you crave excitement and glory. whatever that means
 to you...
 
 just make sure a goblin doesn't come across your corpse, they have a VERY
 short term memory and a propensity for collecting shiny things. That's just
 asking for dragon-bait, and we don't want that in our area, no thank you. This
 is a nice neighborhood you see, my neighbors three miles away all agree, so
 you can take your magic pocket and see all that you can see... way over
 yonder, if you please.

 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
 dissolvers or any of that junk. Just a fully recyclable can that vacuum seals
 itself shut using the power of machinery and heat.

 some of the best spaghetti sauces I've ever made have not been stewed for
 hours in a marinara.
 
 Instead, they were formed from tomatoes that had been locally grown within my
 own state. Helps that I live in a green place, but the most important part is
 not the climate but the proximity. Greenhouses are just as tasty as sunlight
 and warmth.
 
 instead, I seared them, or rather just cooked them for a short time, and the
 result was something that did not taste gross and watery, but instead fresh
 and fruity. Like putting mango in salsa, you don't initially think it'll work
 until you try it.
 
 That being said, you should cook canned tomatoes for at least 20 minutes on
 medium to low heat. In doing so, the flavor profiles will break down and meld
 together as the constituent forms of the sauce coalesce, and you'll be able to
 hide most of the fresh flavor. This is important for canned tomatoes because
 they also bear a hint of "tinniness", from the tin can they're delivered in.
 This flavor DNI well w / fresh

 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.

 Don’t be fooled. Casting doubt about rigorous peer reviewed science
 doesn’t mean you are just “asking questions,” it means you are a
 conspiracy theorist.
 
 or it means you're so remarkably ignorant that you shouldn't even be in the
 room where people are talking about this.
 
 Unless your questions are very basic. "can someone explain to me what XYZ term
 means?" or "how long has this particular application method been in common
 use?" that kind of thing. Even still, either do some basic research or
 relinquish your decision making power until you understand.

 I do not believe that the responsibility for a safe home can exist in a select
 few. Certainly the majority is not required to sustain it, but with too few
 you risk being gray-goo'd by drones uh hordes of undead or something.
 
 Is it too much to ask that every ablebodied man and woman knows how to dress a
 wound? That we all can start a fire, shoot a rifle, tie knots, and grow
 vegetables?
 
 Is it too much to ask that we take responsibility for the cultivation of the
 legacy of our forefathers, and the protection and nourishment of the earth
 which bore them?
 
 If you don't know how to use a knife, how are you going to feed yourself? If
 you can't do a push-up, how are you going to defend yourself? If you can't
 walk for 10 miles or run for 2, then how are you going to be in the right
 place at the right time?
 
 Fighting is optional. In times of peace, it is an honorable contest between
 two consenting subjects who seek to learn from one another. You must bow to
 your opponent, for they are your greatest teacher.

 eat them myself, which, uh... idk what I expected xD

 with it, so... sandwiches. And hey, sandwiches are cool, they're a pretty neat
 anti-hunger tool! but uhhhh idk if I really want to eat six whole sandwiches
 myself. I'm gonna do it though hehe wish me luck [ding] ah nuts my rice and
 beans are done, hang on lemme eat those first

 exhaustion can be cured with a nap
 
 exertion can be cured with water and a few rest days
 
 trauma can be allayed for at least a few days with soul food and compassion.
 maybe laughter too, depending on the mood.
 
 fear can be bolstered with a smile, a wink, and a courageous act,
 
 and loss is just change you didn't consent to.
 
 they won't consent too, so let's give them some change to tolerate.

 @user-5 It's still best to make vegan food without substitutes. They're tasty
 and delicious, (which is new), but they're not that great for you and kind of
 expensive. If your normal diet is mostly fresh fruits and vegetables with some
 lentils and grains, you're on the right track imho. But still they can be fun
 sometimes, and the melted vegan cheese enables nachos and mac&cheese so...
 worth it

Workplaces are comprised of people they choose. hence, unions are comprised of people in that industry.

 Vegetables are delicious! There's lots of nutrients. However vegetables, while
 can be eaten raw, are much more useful for your body molecularly if you cook
 them first. I think it breaks down the cellular walls so that your body can
 digest the juicy tasty nutrients locked within.
 
 Vegetables also don't have calories, that you get from things with vitality.
 You are what you eat, and sometimes if you need it you might want to try meat.
 Me? I'm a vegetarian, that's why I'm so skinny! Carnivores have it so easy, I
 have to eat about 2x as much rice-and-beans by weight.
 
 At least I'm not vegan - I can supplement with fats like butter and cooking
 oil, which are useful when combined with nutrients, as they allow your body to
 store them for later. Just make sure you eat enough calories which are energy
 for your body, otherwise it won't have the chemical energy to store said
 nutrients in your latent fat cells. Like, building up a pantry, or a squirrel
 saving nuts for winter.

 make sure you clean grease and such from appliances too! Like, sometimes
 previous renters will spill something down the side of the oven and you won't
 notice because it's right up against the wall / cabinet / fridge...
 
 if you can, pull them out a bit and check to see if there's anything you can
 clean. Cockroaches will eat grease and can live off of it for a long time.

 also, if you have a lot of a particular item (like, boxes of nutritious
 granola bars with lots of nuts, maybe some chocolate, peanut butter, and dried
 fruit) then you can place them such that the last box is on the bottom, while
 the first box is reachable from the top.
 
 that way, as you eat them, you can slowly reach the bottom.

 not sure how busy you are, but maybe you could hang around outside the food
 bank and offer to trade with other people who come out with 4 pounds of
 carrots and 6 whole pumpkins?
 
 when in doubt there's always rice and beans for the peppers. The melons
 probably just have to be eaten.
 
 If you don't get to all of them (because let's face it, who's gonna eat all
 that melon) then maybe you could feed it to rabbits or something.
 
 this situation is pretty common in rural areas where people have large
 harvests of single crops all at once, or in a very short timeframe. However in
 those places there's infrastructure in place to distribute your extra, so idk
 what you could do here now unless you have friends who are willing to trade.

 I don't know how much simpler I can state it than this:
 
 power is penance
 
 and yet repentance is scant amongst those chosen to lead us.
 
 Voting slows things down. It gives us room to breathe. It is crucial for
 long-term operations. Leaders should be chosen for experience, wisdom, and a
 humble lifetime of dedicated service to others.
 
 Executive action is important when reactivity and adaptability are important.
 Projects should be undertaken by those chosen for merit and spirit. They
 should not be chosen for charisma or gravitas - both can be earned in the line
 of duty.
 
 Power should not be rewarded. It is it's own reward, the feeling of strength
 and control, and it must be wielded with care, precision, and honorable
 intention.
 
 Self flagellation and forced humility are self defeating. They are traps that
 the greedy fall into when seeking righteous power. They misunderstand the
 nature of virtue and seek to claim it for themselves, failing to realize that
 virtue helps more than it hedonizes

 out of questions, I apply myself using what I knew toward the discipline.
 Then, when I thought of more questions, I asked them. In this way I sought to
 perfect my knowledge and understanding - but, when pressed for time, what I
 came to learn true was the truth. I realized that some information isn't
 necessary to know, due in part to your inability to presently put it into a

 democracy of the cultural space? I wrote a common simple organizational
 structure about that called the "tribe of tribes" code name algorism which is
 a combination of "algoreithms" and "autism" and put it on my website for less
 than a hundred months. I have no idea if anyone ever read it but it's kinda
 neat as a potential and easy way to organize people which hasn't yet been

 The only things we should trade across an ocean for are luxury goods.
 Nintendo, not medical supplies, hard-wood bikeframes, not piles and piles of
 "recycling". People's time on culinary thirty course weeklong meals, not cans
 of San marzano tomatoes. Tapestries and gilded statues, not thirteen tons of
 barely processed rubber.
 
 What would we offer in return? Luxuries of our own. We do still make them, do
 we not? Just think of what the 1% has gathered to rot and give away the whole
 damned lot. We shall not provide necessities, because giving a man a fish will
 feed him for but a day, and a man's gotta eat. He'll find a way.

 what if instead of javascript cookies we only let websites access one single
 location in memory which was allocated client-side and is unique to each
 website?
 
 that way they couldn't track you between sites, since they wouldn't be able to
 see any other website's "biscuits" get it because they're healthier than
 cookies
 
 All they would be able to store would be data, though I guess they could store
 bytecode instructions or something if they really wanted to.

 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.

 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.

 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.

 Sometimes when I feel overwhelmed with all the boilerplate I just start coding
 and making stuff. Doesn't matter if it works, doesn't matter if it says /*
 FIXME */ all over the place, doesn't matter if it includes header files that
 don't exist yet, as long as you're hacking out the mechanics of whatever
 operations you need to perform then you can figure the rest of that stuff out
 later. The creative urge doesn't last forever, which is why projects get
 abandoned, but with discipline you can keep bringing yourself back to fix all
 the /* FIXME */'s and the compiler errors.

 I have plenty of things made, but none of it organized : (
 
 Kinda makes me wish I could like... train an LLM on my social media posts and
 use it programmatically somehow to help me organize my stuff into different
 categories according to what kind of topic or style they were written in.
 Hmmm......... There's no way I could do it, I mean, there's no way I could
 organize and edit my stuff, but with the help of a computer I might.

 I have between one and ten hundred visits to my website every day, but I don't
 really post it anywhere new anymore. I also have zero followers on Neocities.
 
 On Mastodon, I have ~70 followers, most of whom are inactive. Seventy is a
 good amount, a normal amount, a reasonable amount, an unsuspicious amount, and
 yet every time I see someone wearing the colors I can't help but wonder if
 they know me.
 
 I'm too busy being furious to be lonely. I used to be, before I realized how
 important I am. How important? Just as much as you are, I know it.
 
 I'm a sprinter. I didn't spec into endurance at character creation. Nobody
 chastises the mage for skipping leg day.
 
 I act in fits and bursts. I am sharp like a scalpel, but needles dull just a
 bit when piercing the lid of the HRT. Good thing I'm not made out of metal, I
 can bend myself back into place, so long as everyone else can keep pace.

 this. Care for yourself and for others, do it for u

 it's like how they solve problems in Star Trek - there's a bridge crew, and
 they exchange their opinions with each other of the situation as it unfolds.
 In doing so they can help guide one another through the problems they are
 tasked with solving in order to resolve the difficult diplomatic situation at
 hand.
 
 sorta like how with your method, people suggest their desired option
 continuously until they find an option that everyone wants. Or if only one
 person can't decide, they can pick any of the other options suggested (not by
 them) (as long as they can eat there / utilize the outcome of the decision
 being made, for example a vegetarian not being able to eat at a steakhouse or
 perhaps a librarian being tasked with something other than the storing and

 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
 you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
 may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
 ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
 mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
 collective mind co-re-assigns.

 You should not, generally, spend time in places covered in bird poop or poison
 oak. You should also avoid abandoned wooden structures or old fallen logs,
 because spiders. Also, don't spend too much time on islands made of sand. They
 wash away as you step on them, as erosion takes its toll. Plus permanence is
 impossible in your structures. Not ideal in any sense - build on rock.

 if you're just learning how to cook, I highly recommend "Ms. Dash" and "Better
 than Boullion" - focus on getting the ingredients and mechanics right, and
 then work on seasoning them.
 
 Level 2 is paprika, garlic powder, onion flakes, lime juice, and red pepper
 flakes for spice.
 
 level 3 is learning the difference between basil, oregano, parsley, and other
 herbs.
 
 be careful with salt and pepper. They can do a lot, but they can also easily
 do too much. better to salt to taste.
 
 also, MSG is wonderful for savory dishes. Your body breaks it down into sodium
 in your stomach acid so imagine you're adding salt when considering MSG for
 healthy proportions.

 I have this notion about a math/CS curriculum where students build and program
 their own calculators. Once you make the calculator do it you never need to do
 it yourself again.
 
 for the same reason that "writing is thinking" is true, so too is "programming
 is calculation" true.
 
 by working through the steps required to produce a result, and fully
 understanding each step, they have a much more solid understanding of what's
 going on than if they practiced rote memorization (worse) or continual
 computation (better, not best tho)
 
 especially if every step of the way is accompanied with visual elements which
 show exactly what is happening. Some people are more visual, some people are
 more algorithmic, and finding a way to teach all types of people is a truly
 difficult and rewarding part of teaching.

 part of me kinda wants to be the kind of nerd that writes down the names of
 every file that's permanently stored on my computer so that I can verify in my
 own handwriting or perhaps using a type of code that the files on my computer
 were placed there intentionally and not used to discredit or implicate me in
 something I had no intentions of being associated with

 down everything I can remember in my dream journal, will letcha know when I
 have something to share.
 
 Also... sorry about the sun. I have no idea if it was worth it because I woke
 up quite a bit later. Ah well anyway gotta do some writing, I hope everyone
 has a pleasant day. Make sure you eat nutrients and stay hydrated and do your
 stretches and work on your posture and all that.
 
 vegetables have minerals, fruits have vitamins, rice-and-beans or meat have
 protein, and oils and fats have calories. try and eat a lot of different
 colors of veggies and a lot of different colors of fruits (a green fruit and a
 green vegetable are not necessarily the same nutritionally)

 children should be raised in museums, not classrooms
 
 they should visit parks, not fenced in playgrounds.
 
 they should eat with family, at festivals, in restaurants, and under the stars
 
 they should sleep content, knowing that their next day will be greater than
 the last.
 
 children should be treated like people, not frustratingly loud and messy
 little brats
 
 children are to be nurtured like a sapling, not harnessed like a machine

 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.

 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.

 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.

 could give us some experience organizing small, short-term projects to
 accomplish specific goals and tasks in an ad-hoc way that relied less upon
 procedure and more on "I think so-and-so knows something about that, they were
 looking into those files and posted a breakdown of how they work yesterday"

 I only take things that aren't mine if they're in the trash. Or near the
 trash. Or in a store.
 
 so weird how the store won't let me leave until I give them some of my
 dollars. This quartermaster drives a hard bargain!

 what if you bought me a refrigerated semi truck and I drove it around to rural   │
 communes and took their extras and brought it into the city to urban communes    │
 and gave it all away for free and then took the stuff that the urban communes    │
 scrounged from the trash and cleaned and repaired and brought it to the rural    │
 communes along with their art and poems and artistic nudes and exchanged it      │
 for their canned peaches and knitted scarves and drove it back to the urban      │
 communes and exchanged them for vintage furniture and computer parts that we     │
 didn't have room for because cities are dense and lack the space for keeping     │
 historical artifacts and then took them to the rural communes to exchange for    │
 jalapenos and goat cheese which I then brought back to the urban communes and    │
 traded for a bunch of catgirls who visited a rural farmhouse and threw a         │
 kick-ass rave for the rural people who are totally into that kind of thing       │
 like, once per year because frankly they moved to the country to get away from   │
 the noise thank you ve                                                           │

 @user-1695 
 
 never accept your own death
 
 fight for every second of life, something something do not go quietly into
 that grim dark
 
 what the fuck are you supposed to do? Reading what you said got me pretty
 fucking pissed - keep talking for a start, it helps, people need to be pissed.
 
 I'm also broke as shit, don't know how I'm going to pay rent and eat, but
 it'll get done.
 
 Where do you live? Can other people help you? Medications are an
 organizational problem, not an insurmountable barrier. We'll make it work.

 this game is what we are missing
 thank goodness for that
 for if this is missing in our timeline
 we'll be better off at last
 we can have games, stories, and practice wars
 but none of them are precious
 precious implies worth
 they are worth nothing but entertainment
 no problem solving utility
 nothing of value
 save for perhaps the spatial awareness and strategization that comes
 from being a part of such a deadly ba-lance.
 
 anyway game time teehee just for me, don't worry about it I'll show
 you why it's a HORRID THING
 that won't be coming to our shores, no siree
 
 bye

 if so, then don't think about it too hard, you might need disability too!
 
 speaking as someone who needs disability aid but can't get it because of
 restrictions like this (also can we talk about the multi-year process to
 secure such rights, like c'mon rent's due every MONTH) I have to say that
 you're right, it's bullshit, UBI for all, disability benefits for those who
 need more, and employment for people who believe a cause is worthy enough to
 apply themselves towards it.

 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."

 What do I need, in this moment? A flea collar for my cat.
 
 What do we need? New institutions. Inspired by the old, or perhaps those
 not-yet-forgotten, but built on faith, kindness, love, and trust.

 Did you know Goodwill often sells offline-only versions of popularly used
 devices like old digital cameras from the 2000s that use batteries and cannot
 connect to bluetooth or wifi when you least suspect?
 
 Or tape recorders that record on real physical tape! That way nobody can hear
 your rubber-ducking once you misplace your way to play-it-back.
