Some more helpful hints when starting society from the burned out remains of the old one.

  1. Like nature. And love it. Nature is really useful.  Don't burn it down, yank it out, or otherwise maim it. You will have a limited number of species to care for. Don't make them go away. It is as my wise father used to say when I would lament the lack of motorized options my family had on the lake..."Olsons don't rip up nature." Be the Olsons. 
  2. Work hard on that whole greed vice. It is really the worst of the seven deadly. Seriously. If it weren't for greed, you might not have some of the others or they wouldn't hit you so hard. Think of developing the seven live-ly virtues instead. Like, you know, caring, sharing, conservation, renewable...you see where I'm going- you can complete the list. Probably optimism or positivity should go on there but not enough that you go all Up With People cult-happy, okay? 
  3. If you are inspired to start a cult, don't. Just don't. Even if you think it would be okay because it is about being happy and spreading happy. Just don't. 
  4. Check for ticks.

I like being alive and I want people not to think I'm almost done being so because I am 57 years old with, gasp, wrinkles!   It has become glaringly apparent that women don't know how to do this.  What We Currently Do  Step, the first: Upload a selfie with the following caption: "THIS IS WHAT [insert your age here] LOOKS LIKE." Preferably, the photo should be shot with a full-length mirror and you wearing some sort of casual athletic apparel and your bestest ever resting bitch face.  Wait for the first of the thousand papercuts to arrive. "You look [a number that is at least a decade more than you have shared you are]"   Repost the whole thing to say, "this is what I was told when I shared my age"  Wait for the "support" team to arriv...
