  • Intellectually/spiritually/financially impoverished slaves conditioned to be as abusive as the system that reared them and still provides them their “necessities”. I like to think of imperialists as semi-conscious children with serious behavioral disorders+no early-life training for how to interact in non-hostile ways with other beings, who have been convinced by lead-poisoned racist authority figures that growing up to become a cog in an infinite plundering machine is honorable life path. All it takes is some reframing… maybe some of them end up waking themselves up to the whole mess in time to, at the very least, remove themselves from the process and re-evaluate their behaviors/priorities, begin growing their desire for truth-seeking, appreciation of nature, personal growth, or just living in the real world outside of 24/7/365 imperial conquest mode


  • we hold water weight based on salt intake from what I understand, it is less related to how much we remember to stay baseline hydrated (saying this as a chronically mildly dehydrated adhd/asp spectrum person who also sometimes naturally fasts on accident for long periods sometime up to around 11+ hours if I have eaten well/[much for my smaller stomach] the day before) I like sipping as small of sips as I can throughout the day sometimes to remind myself, and when hiking at the very least as well, and it can help in maintaining the good practice of saving some last few swigs of the water bottle for emergency situations like someone unexpectedly choking on dust, or experiencing unexpected eye irritants from gusty winds.

    Poverty is a choice, irrelevance is allbut guaranteed. The dragons’ impenetrable fortresses are nearing completion, though they remain pleasantly surprised at their prospects of more perfect control over their destinies than even their most adept forefathers had ever yet captured. Will must henceforth be paid for in the most precious of tokens (faith, peace, hope, sanity, pride, dignity, rage, flesh). We will grow and adapt to survive even as it pushes us to unraveling. Any minute contributions, no matter how unrecognized or delayed in fruition, have all culminated to this moment, and this process of incalculable chaotic combinations, interactions, and exchanges unfolding never stops, even as our minds, bodies, and spirits need periodic rest for rest, regrowth, reflection. Remember to stay saucy.
