I second the pre-preparation of food. When we do fairly short weekend camping trips, I like to cook (and eat) better than hot dogs and chips, so I’ll spend a little time prepping foil packs of food that can go straight into the camp fire.

I put light-reflecting tape on anything that’s dark and I might want to find at night. Things like the navy blue stuff sacks for my tent, sleeping bag and ground pad.
Freeze water bottles for you ice chest and use them instead of loose ice. They last much longer. Your food doesn’t get soggy, and you have water to drink.

Tyrion and Varys were literally the one bright spot in this whole kick-in-the-chest episode.
Doing the grunt work, keeping economy running. So these Outliers have a change to shine and shame you in motivating you to invent the hover-board. I expect your kick-starter to be up, let’s say, Friday in two weeks. Snap, snap, get to it.

We saw a striking pattern in the sky where stripes of high-density plasma neatly alternated with stripes of low-density plasma. This pattern drifted slowly and aligned beautifully with the Earth’s magnetic field lines, like aurorae.

For over six decades, scientists have speculated about the existence of plasma structures that reside in the…

This right here proves that some of the best responses are at the bottom of the comment thread.
I still hate them.
SCIENCE OVEN!
Indoor plumbing. Don't ask.
Microwaves. Something unnatural about cooking food that fast.
