 it's ideal to get where you're going with at least a day to rest. The body can

 If you don't have the energy, then people need to take care of you. Maybe they
 do anyway. If you're anything like me, and in this regard I think we might be
 similar, having people take care of you is important.

 my problem is figuring out which thoughts are intrusive and which are actually
 mine
 
 I usually err on the side of "would you want your sister to do this" or "how
 would you feel if your mom told you that" or "do you think a cute sweet soft
 cat would ever think such a thing" and that usually works.
 
 usually.

Finally, trying to pivot towards Pacific northwestern native perennial plants (and self-seeding annuals) for food, medicine, and material; they're much more adapted to this region as far as sunlight, moisture, bungalow, microbial, avian, insect partner, and soil types are concerned, and that's not only take less work now to instigate and tend, but are much more equipped to handle the fungal infections, droughts, genetic biodiversity collapses, and fluctuating climates that are inbound.  the BRIT ethnobotany database is helpful in that regard, and given that it's based out of Texas and has gynecological herbs, it would be a really good idea for some of the tech queers in our community to duplicate a redundancy of it.

 future? work towards that. your emotions are fuel, not despair to wallow in.

 yes
 
 it makes it difficult to connect with them.
 
 I find that people like that need a different context, if you want to connect,
 so that you can see them in a new light.
 
 if they're still ":(" then you can't waste your energy on them - they are
 working on themselves. At least, they should be.

 I know you don't want to hear this, but there is a chance that there will come
 a time where your life depends on your ability to debug a computer without the
 internet. To set up an SSH server. To install Linux. To program in C. To do
 something else that I'm not prepared for... If StackOverflow didn't exist
 because network connectivity has been lost, could you remember syntax? Maybe
 it's a good idea to set up a local LLM that can answer basic questions about
 technology. Maybe it's a good idea to set up on your parents computer, just in
 case you have to hide out there for a couple months. Maybe it's a good idea to
 download wikipedia, just in case.

 just because you have something good

 if it were so, 
 
 it would imply that you are bad. 
 
 and you are not bad. 
 
 therefore it is good to have good things.

 at this point in time you probably shouldn't be forming NEW online communities
 unless you're part of an OLD community that just isn't radical enough. And
 then you should try and MERGE communities into larger, more geographically
