    Feels like a pyramid to me. If I don’t have good sleep and good hydration I struggle mightily to control my food intake, and if I’m eating too much then I’m aching so badly and feeling so sluggish that I barely get anywhere at the gym.

    Eating that will not make you happy.

    It will give you at best a brief moment of pleasure, but the pain it will bring later is not worth it!

    It’s not just ONE burger–that is yet another burger. An element of self-harm, another step on a journey that takes you FURTHER away from who you want to be! Don’t take it! Draw the line! Let this be the moment you STOPPED the trek toward ruin!

    Skipping this one is not depriving you, you’ve had them before; they’re old news. You know what’s GREAT news though? Being able to tie your own shoe laces. Being able to WIPE YOUR OWN ASS. Being able to climb a set of stairs without feeling like you’re about to die. Being able to stand in place without becoming out of breath. Be grateful that you have not crossed those thresholds because YOU STOPPED NOW.

    I’m talking to like minded people overseas about preparing resources to help at-risk people evacuate the United States. I’m also accumulating an emergency fund and arming myself. I will continue to masquerade as a cis white dude so I can move mostly unimpeded. I plan to help people get to New England as a staging point–it will remain RELATIVELY less dangerous than most other parts of the country here–where they might have a chance of SURVIVING LONG ENOUGH to cobble their shit together enough that they can legally get overseas from here without violating a visa and getting deported back to this shithole.

    I will also continue attempting to practice the art of not tipping off the enemy by giving them any warning that I might be a threat to them. I must swaddle myself in the flayed skin of civility. I must smile politely and patiently to their faces. I must lull them into feeling safe around me. I must wait until their back is turned. And then I can personally drag them to hell by the neck. Hopefully when nobody else will witness it.

    There needs to be fewer fascists in America. One way or another. I’d rather see them convinced rationally to peacefully change their minds and stop being fascists. If they remove that option, well, they get lie in the beds they’ve shat.

    If someone accused you of being an internal combustion engine and their only supporting evidence was posting a wikipedia article about internal combustion engines it would be equally as irrelevant as you pointing at someone, saying “You’re a tankie!” and then posting the wikipedia article about tankies.

    seems you missed the part where I specifically mentioned how people may want to go someplace other than canada

    be it Canada or elsewhere

    wherever they wish to end up.

    At this point all you’re doing is making excuses to not help.

    We can’t expect Canada to take refugees lightly.

    People need someplace where they can feel safe enough to collect themselves so they can cross the border prepared and introduced to the proper receiving channels of the receiving country, be it Canada or elsewhere.

    There are places in the United States, though, that will remain somewhat safer for longer. Making it possible for people to clear out of the most dangerous areas to these halfway-havens is crucial to ensuring that they SURVIVE LONG ENOUGH to get their affairs in order for wherever they wish to end up.

    Do you know if there’s an underground railroad to help at-risk women, persons of color, and lgbtq people safely escape the United States yet?

    I want to sign up as a conductor because I can’t escape myself and as long as I still LOOK like a white dude and the government still thinks I’m cis I can at least be a useful for flying under the radar.
