There are only something like three or four elderly Shakers left. You'd have to move to Maine, so that would take care of the mover part... Only issue is the pesky bit about embracing heresy.

How can I convince the authorities to do what I want?

Nowadays there is this thing called an NFT, where you don't actually own anything but the concept of the original of a thing. Just sell NFTs of stuff. You dont have to do anything.

How can I get people to wake up?

Soak your covid mask in chloroform. If anyone asks later, just say you must have accidentally spilled some chloroform on your mask while you were using chloroform for some other purpose, as we all do on a daily basis. For instance, my dog was never very smart at learning tricks, so I find chloroform helpful to her performing certain tricks such as "lie down" and "play dead".

How can I help my bad posture?

Just provide the kids with things they really love, like educational reading materials and nutritious vegetables to snack on. If there's a lull in the action you can regale them with fascinating tales of how things were different when you were a kid.

You should drop out. If you think art history is creepy, wait till they force you to take Gender Studies.

I don't want to get cavities, but I don't want to brush my teeth.

But I spent all day putting those spots on the floor! I thought everybody liked polka dots.

Do things that you’re interested in. You’ll be able to pay attention to those things for longer. If you find it hard to pay attention at work, just quit and do something else!

Even though I can easily do most exercises, I’m always out of breath when I run. Any tips to fix this?

Just bypass the lungs and oxygenate the blood directly with an extra-corporal membrane oxygenator (ECMO). You'll never be out of breath and imagine how fit you will be lugging all that equipment and machinery after you.

Get yourself a sensory deprivation tank. You'll either get a very good night's rest, or you'll revert to a proto-human form and wander around at night hunting and eating your neighbor's pets.

How can I eat whatever I want without becoming overweight?
