First, I am merely an “enlightened amateur”. Please vet & check on your own. Caveat emptor. Consider these to be priming the pump for your own investigations. I know this is a long post; I am attempting to put out a lot of information as a resource. Read or skip sections depending on your interests.
Second, I fear spicy time is very close, 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:
- Mentality: first and foremost in survival is having a flexible mentality and cultivating the ability to adapt. Vanity has no place in survival.
- Develop a meatspace network of people that are likeminded: cultivate your community ties and build 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.
And please follow both me, Nitzakhon, on Gab… as well as my blog host Granite Grok and also on Telegram Tommy Robinson Official plus his Urban Scoop site. And don’t forget posts sometimes get cloned on American Reveille as well, which is a good site to check out in general.
FYI, here’s a link to the last Survival Sunday.

Have not tried this one. I have tried the one with a gum wrapper and battery – you need to make the circuit with the tinder wrapped around the right place. The heat flashes and dies very quicky – you won’t have time to move stuff to contact the ignition point:

Microsoft report says critical infrastructure at risk | news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site
Say, who remembers our WEF “friend” and his predictions? Candace does.
Remember, without power there’s no light, no heat, no running water, no refrigeration, no purchasing beyond cash, no gas being pumped… give two weeks without power, even just a single week, and in vast swaths people will turn on each other like rats in a flood.

Most of us are familiar with the movie Soylent Green, about a future where “to serve man” is more than a slogan. Tip o’ the hat to Twilight Zone. Anyway, just recently the New York Slimes had a piece about the possibility of cannibalism. IIRC some “green” eggheads have also proposed it. And now, this:
As the IMHO planned starvation occurs, will this happen for real?

From the comments:
If you can’t take a punch don’t start swinging at a guy who knows how to.
They move in packs. I have read that if you have no choice, focus on the leader. If the leader goes down, the rest will – on average – back off.

Baiting violence – Gun Free Zone
Given that idea, racist words justifying violence, bad actors are manufacturing racist incidents to get away with violence.
This boy was smart enough not to fall for it and still was the recipient of violence.
And potentially lethal violence as well. The victim was hit in the head with a metal folding chair.
Video at the link.
Be situationally aware. And aware that there are people out there, often called “diverse”, who WANT an excuse to go violent. And if they don’t get it, will do so anyway – and potentially lethally.

I don’t know. If it’s gotten that bad… and I’m not a lawyer so take this as my own opinion… 2-3 shots center of mass, decapitate, and mount the head on a pike as a warning to the next looters. But that’s just me. I have a fence that’s topped with spikes. Musing. Collect a whole set?

Save the crap stuff for “ballistic wampum” trading materials. The problem with that concept is, in a true SHTF situation, today’s trade could be tomorrow’s incoming.
>>>>>=====<<<<<
Short of years and untold wealth, you cannot possibly be fully prepared for everything (I have to keep reminding myself of that). 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?

Concluding thoughts if I’m moved to comment:
World Economic Forum Declares ‘Jesus Is Fake News’ and ‘God Is Dead’ – News Punch
These people have set themselves up to be deities themselves, thus violating the First Commandment. (Or second, if you’re Jewish.) And so much of the WEF movement seems to be populated by people eager to download themselves into a computer. I.e., fear of death.
Now what will be interesting – and obviously I’ll never know – is if these slugs get all implanted and wired up and “transferred” and their body dies. And they go to stand in front of His judgment, and when they complain they were supposed to have surmounted death, He will say otherwise. And here’s your ticket straight to downstairs.
Bwaaaa ha ha ha ha ha!
Is it wrong that I take delight at this thought?

Please check out my memes collections; last one here. Mockery, ridicule, and the wrapping of uncomfortable truths inside humor can penetrate the cognitive shields of normies far more effectively – IMHO – than dry facts and figures.
