Stop flying!
Stop buying (so much) crap!

Every time I advocate for leaving the city and regrouping in the woods someone pipes up that it's "not that easy".

You think I don't know? I've been trying for nearly a month now and yeah, it sucks.

It's too hot, or too cold, or raining. It sucks pooping in a bucket in the cold before the sun rises. And the damned bugs bite!
