Do I sense Nightcrawler vibes?

Scratch costs with transportation. No need for any means of transportation.
Also a lot more free time. No commuting, no early leave to get somewhere on time. Just blink and you're there.
For the physical fitness, Muay Thai.
It is also effective for a self defense context, if the trainer teaches non-sport Muay Thai. Muay Thai is essentially street fighting.
For self control and development of balance, speed and coordenation, try Aikido.
You can resist a throw, obviously, but the grabs and movements exploit phisiology.
One of the basic manouvres aplies pressure on the radial nerve and wrist, in a twist like motion. It is really painful and resisting it can cause serious damage.
The throws are defensive manouvers to avoid serious injuries.
What it takes to make it an hard martial art is often not taught, which rendered it as a watered version of itself.
Aikido does have a set of "attack" movements, used to break the offensive of the opponent.
Grew up surronded by law enforcement
There are more countries in the world besides America, where any chump can get into "law enforcement" after 6 weeks of trainning.
In most of the world, getting a badge implies a serious and throughrough selection and scrutiny process.
You can't even imagine the amount of problems a simple grunt can cause in any given process, without going against orders.
Following due process is often enough to bog down processes to a point whatever is being done is rendered useless when finally achieved.
Wouldn't it be possible to move the entire library into the dark web and leave just a few snorkels behind?
Or move it to a model similar to zeronet?
I was in your place once.
At some point I just decided I couldn't be bothered with installing junk software that rendered my low spec cellphones unusable in a very short time.
If anyone wanted to reach me they could send me an sms, email me or spend the time to properly call.
Worked like a charm to thin the herd.
SMS was considered a safety issue amd discontinued.
And if nobody in your friends group start talking about, nobody will get to know it.
I always understood teleportation as a accelerate-decelerate sequence to reach the end point, as in not A to B but A to B to C, where B is the midpoint where you have enough momentum to naturally stop at your destination.
