If your goal is to avoid that, and you look 21 permanently a la Highlander, you probably want to get new one every thirty years or so, starting over as a "runaway teen" or "refugee" who lacks identity documents with a nominal age of fifteen.

Or just commit identity theft. That one you could probably do once a decade, or more; just keep a running file of unsolved disappearances of children and teens and pull another one out whenever the age more-or-less fits.

Because it's still tasty!

I chew it like gum and then spit out the fiber into the compost bin.

lemmy is the go-to

I still check up on reddit and facebook, though both are becoming ever harder to use in a healthy manner

I'm going next summer!

I'm cleaning my basement, so I'm surrounded by tools, warm winter clothes and blankets, and bicycles.

But probably the smartphone in my hand.

What part of the world and what time of year?

In general, you want to prioritize rescue over acquiring food and water. A set of three markers in a triangle that can be seen from above is a universal sign that someone needs help. Flashing mirror at any passing aircraft is also good.

For food, don't worry about it until after you secure water and shelter. It takes well over a week to starve. Water, boiling is best; you can do this even without a pot by heating rocks in a fire and dropping them into a basin you've filled with fresh water. Failing that, fast-moving streams are somewhat less likely to have as many parasites and dangerous microbes. But boiling is best!

For shelter, building a lean-to with fallen wood against a big rock will do for your first night; break off leafy branches and layer them over top to shed water. Longer-term, big sheaves of long grass bundled and stacked will insulate and shed water better.

When I feel bad emotionally, I clean. I do the nastiest, most unpleasant jobs; since I'm gonna be miserable no matter what, I might as well get some use out of it.
