First, remember I am merely an “enlightened amateur” as far as anything survival goes. Please vet & check on your own. Consider these to be priming the pump for your own investigations.
Second, the hour is late and I fear bad times are imminent, but even a month of food, water, etc., puts you well ahead of most of the sheeple. IMHO, set your minimum sights on a three-month period.
Third, two things will be critical for having the best chance of making it through:
- The proper mentality: first and foremost in survival is having a flexible mentality and cultivating the ability to adapt.
- Having a meatspace network of people that are likeminded: start cultivating your community ties and building alliances with neighbors (note: don’t babble about the Jab or globalists or depopulation, or start pointing political fingers when doing this)… and remember, the first rule of PREP CLUB is that there is no prep club.
Fourth, as you read here, note that I present an aggregation of articles that I think are interesting, but I do not have time to vet them. Caveat emptor.

Short of years of preparation and untold wealth, you cannot possibly be fully prepared for everything. But even some preparations, ideally at least 90 days of food, water / water purification, etc., puts you head and shoulders in front of the vast majority of the sheeple who will be in jaw-gaping astonishment when the SHTF. The only relevant questions are:
- When does it start?
- How bad will it get?
- How long will it last?
- What will the aftermath look like?

Why Is FEMA Tracking Down Preppers? This Is How They Prepare For A Food Crisis – Ask a Prepper
So, could they be trying to figure out how many people are “hoarding” food that can repurposed to hand out to the unprepared? FEMA will continue to study prepared communities like our own and they will map these homesteads and prepper homes as resources.

Another Omen of Impending Democrat Doom in the 2022 Midterms – PJ Media
We need to remember that the Left thinks and plans in terms of decades. So what if the Right gains control again in 2022, and even cements and expands it in 2024. The flood of illegal aliens, even if stopped, will continue to shift voting populations Leftward.

Presented, quick hit style, are some links to specific-topic prepper articles I think are particularly noteworthy. Print them out and start a binder – if the SHTF badly enough you won’t be able to retrieve these off the net or, possibly, even off your computer (I remember one Y2K event I went to – someone was selling survival info on CDs… yeah, useful when the power’s out!):

How To Buy Food as Anonymously as Possible – The Organic Prepper
Highly endorse these techniques. And re grains in general: we have an ongoing infestation of meal moths and I’m having to purge massive amounts to get rid of all their food. Dammit. The only things I know are to buy certified grains in strong plastic bags and/or freeze them for at least 72 hours prior to putting them into storage. For myself, I double-wrap them in zip lock bags to isolate bags from one another in case one bag is infected, they’ll be contained and not get out to the whole lot.
One other thought: if you normally go maskless, don’t go with a mask to the store you are familiar with.

Vittert: Think baby formula shortage is bad? Corn would be worse (newsnationnow.com)
Less than half of the corn, wheat and soybeans usually planted this time of year is in the ground.
Combine that with virtually no wheat exports from Ukraine and America’s already shaking supply chain and things could get interesting — difficult, perhaps.
Remember, baby formula shelves are bare because one plant closed. You don’t need to take much out of the system to cause chaos.
We are now talking about a large percentage of corn, wheat and soybeans — gone come fall.

A nation that doesn’t protect its children is a nation primed to collapse.
I want you to grasp the implications of this woman’s saying “It’s a woman’s choice” even when discussing a two-year-old child.
I would walk into a blast furnace voluntarily to protect my children. I’d dive in front of a machine gun to protect my children. And this beast-in-human-form would be willing to defend killing a toddler – and by extension any child – whenever a woman chooses to?
Consider the horror of even considering this – using children to extend adult life. Or if, in the quest to preserve adult life:
Or using them as sex toys.

A few years ago, talking with a rabid anti-gunner who dismissed the idea that any civilian army could defeat the US military (see three links just below) I commented that a lone sniper could target people from a mile away. I challenged them to think through their day – leaving home, going to work, etc. – and look around to see all the places someone could be hidden. And remember that there will be millions of people with their “ghost guns” and all, looking to take out them, their politicians, and the police who sign onto the wrong side. Their face went white.
