I know we live in a safe place, but the first thing anyone should learn is basic tactical med and how to survive in the woods. Seeing the news every day makes me think something could flip on a dime and you’ll need real skills. I tried a weekend bushcraft course once, fell out of the fire pit, learned to treat a burn with just a bandage and some pressure. The rest of the crew at the gym laugh, but I think those lessons stick longer than any debate. If you ever find yourself stuck in a forest, you’ll thank the guy who showed you how to stop bleeding more than the one who taught you how to argue. #conversation
