@thomasfuchs Ha, no. You might take economics as an elective but rarely “home economics” or anything related to financial literacy.

@thomasfuchs The misconception that people have is that there is some way to get more money back via deductions than whatever you spent it on. I guess because people know that corporations are smart about tracking deductible spending so they think it is somehow net profitable.

@thomasfuchs People really do not understand tax deductions at all.

Political slogan I made up (this one is serious but no guarantees for the rest):

#HealthcareIsPower
Slogan in support of universal healthcare, reflecting that guaranteed access to healthcare gives people leverage in other areas of life

More gear:
Dry gear/wet gear - keep them separate. If you only have one change of clothes, put your dry gear on when you stop moving or need to sleep. Put the wet gear on when you’re moving and generating body heat. You can attempt to dry small items like socks and gloves off while you hike by putting them on your shoulders or armpits. Use dry bags and ziplocks to keep things organized and dry.

Ok, starting with gear:
Layering applies to your hands, too. Adding a lightweight shell mit to your bag can upgrade your comfort significantly if it gets wet or windy.

Moon fact:
The moon has an elemental composition almost the same as the Earth’s, because it was formed from debris blasted into space by an impact or series of impacts between the Earth and other space objects or protoplanets.
