       When the internet turns to complete trash and you burnout, what’s your figurative, hyperbolic, but *emotionally true* “that’s it I’m done, I’m going off to _____________” fantasy?Hedge-witch tending to small woodland creatures is mine.

       @NanoRaptor I will get on a boat and sail away forever. Normally this would just be a thing that a person says, but I'm a good sailor, know my boats, have been on long journeys before and plan on doing this anyway at some point.The only downside is how I wanted to use all of the nice weather data to avoid the storms but there are other ways. I would need to be more cautious in my crossings and read the almanacs, learn the signs of a bad sea. And if I drown I drown. Goodbye.

       @NanoRaptor I guess before I get on the boat and leave I could help with the community garden and teach mathematics to those with the patience to learn it.

       @futurebird @NanoRaptor Have you chosen your sailing garb?

       @jerzone @NanoRaptor I have most of what I need, except for a full "north sea" jumper and pants. But I think I know where I can get one if we go in cold water.

       @jerzone @NanoRaptor It comes in XS but I will still need to get the pants shortened a bit for a perfect fit.

       @futurebird @NanoRaptor Purely functional, or some whimsy? Not saying bolo ties are whimsy, but I can imagine you having a high seas persona.

       @jerzone @NanoRaptor Listen, Jer. When it comes to the sea you do not mess around. You want "gear" and the best you can find because that water is trying to kill you.

       @futurebird @NanoRaptor That's why it's not even on my long list. I can barely win battles with water here in the house.

       @futurebird That does sound a complete thing - and damn, best of good luck.I'm reminded of someone who mentioned in some place or another not long back that it's suspicious how all the little islands in the pacific have had people on them - asking why would people just set out into the sea without knowledge of a safe destination?I only thought to myself "have you *MET* ship folk?!"
