If you are three square meals a day every day on time without interruption, it’s not implausible that you might go a pretty long time without noticing that you’re incapable of feeling hunger, that unlike other people you just never feel “hungry”.

In fact, seeing as how we’re all SUPPOSED to eat three meals a day to stay healthy, it might take a pretty big thing for you to even get the chance to notice that “hunger” isn’t something your body does.

Given the right circumstances in fact, a fifty year old who cannot feel hunger might go on a camping trip, get lost in the woods, and be on day three of wandering around without food before the lack of that sensation ever occurs to them as odd for the very first time.

Which is probably a very similar experience to people who don’t realize they’re trans, asexual, gay, queer, intersex, mildly colourblind, allergic to beets, whatever, and why it probably shouldn’t shock and surprise us so much when a 65 year old retiree comes out as queer or vehemently defends the idea that potatoes are spicy

Which I conflate in this hypothetical because it really does highlight the exaggerated value we place on one realization vs the other

6 Tips for Crossing the Road

Look both ways

The road is for cars. 

Make sure to look for them before crossing. Even when you have the right of way, cars have a lot of safety features and you have none. 

Use designated crosswalks 

The road is for cars. 

So is the crosswalk but, under brief and temporary conditions, you can use it too! Never jaywalk, never walk in the road, just hope there is a clear and functional sidewalk. 

Cross at the light

The road is for cars. 

There are rules and signs for them, but that can only go so far. Walk quickly and hold your breath and hope that the light doesn't turn. Make eye contact with drivers as their cars teem with potential energy, rumbling with disdain at the inconvenience of your crossing. Try to ignore the cloud of exhaust that you are in and they are above. 

Leash your pets

The road is for cars. 

Obviously. 

To you, it may be natural to sacrifice so much space to them but to your dog, it is not. His instinct is to explore freely. You must curb it. Modern US car models have such high hoods that the average child, let alone dog, is obscured. Even on the sidewalk, hold the leash tight because the sidewalk (if you are so blessed) is next to the street and the threat still looms.

Look out for road kill

The road is for cars. 

And no one was there to leash the deer. 

Or the raccoon. 

Or the cat. 

Did you know that the most reliable sample method for wildlife in an area is looking at the roadkill? 

Remember these tips

The road is for cars. 

Cars are everywhere. In the city. In the suburbs. In the country. In the woods (the US Forest Service manages more roads than the entire Ministry of Transit in China.) Cars are everywhere because there are roads to bring them there, which is great if you are a car and want to get from place to place fast without worrying about the in-between. 

Unfortunately, you are not a car. 

You are an animal. 

You are in-between. 

So remember to look both ways.
