put a mirror on a bunch of drones
have them aim the mirror at a zeppelin
heat it up
aim the mirrors away when you want to go down
boom no emissions
all you need is to power the drones somehow
maybe with a charging station on the dirigible
they can fly in, charge, then fly out
the barge could be covered in solar panels to help with the charging
or maybe wind power?
basically you can create a floating island that is powered by the elements
with drones controlling lift via mirrors and heating lighter-than-air gasses
it's flawless

War is hell - each casualty bids farewell to a wholely unique treasure from
this world - war is hell - there is nothing that cannot be resolved with
words. And yet we fight, and yet we pillage. War is hell, and those who demand
it must do so only to resist evil, elemental evil, the kind that wars on the
innocent and pillages the bounteous. War is hell. Fucking kill the ones who
make it.

The bigger a county is on the electoral map, the weaker it is. But, the more
space required to control it completely. Treat the largest counties like
Badlands - difficult to traverse unless in numbers, and even with numbers
you're a bright shining target. Very little food, very few supplies, often not
worth controlling aside from the peace and knowledge that your foes will not
attack from that direction.

If you have numbers, envelop your foes.
If you are elite, pierce to their heart.
If you only have numbers, give your commanders bodyguards.
If you only have elite, become undiscoverable.
EDIT:
If you are fast, hit from the side.
if you are only fast, keep them just out of sight.
If you are strong, deal crushing blows
if you are only strong, you no longer have any foes.

the wounds of the soul can be just as harmful as the wounds of the heart, and
both can be helped with campfires.
what's worse, they often harm people around you rather than the wounds of the
body, which typically only harm you. Unless you have like, the plague or

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.
