Greetings fellow patriots! Houston we have a problem! A big one. I'm located in South Louisina 337. On February 28 a white SUV pulled up to the house with red DHS lettering with Texas plates. (Texas WTH i thought y'all were with us) I saw them pull in the drive an met them outside at their truck 2 agents late 40s-50s. They say Hi we are here doing a survey. One agent pulls out 3 volumes (looked like phone books almost sizewise) He ruffles through the pages in first then second volume. He finds my list (The 1 that they don't have). he says so we are doing a survey and we are going around visiting everyone and trying to verify if you own or still have these firearms. He proceeds to show me my list. Every gun i bought from a dealer is on this list. Every one from 22s to Mosin Nagants and everything in between. I was blown away and still am. Many bricks have been shat since then! I told them nah i don't have any of those dangerous baby killers gave them all away after Newtown. They left but sat parked down the road for a couple hours. Probably coordinating drone strike. I have ony told a couple of close friends i trust. I've been tryng to keep it together. The first person i told also had a visit exactly 2 weeks before me. He ordered a questionable part off the net an that's what the agents told him they were after. He lives 5 minutes down the road. I was freaked then but I didn't think anything of it you know he brought it on himself. Until i got a visit. All my stuff is legal and above board. No worries on that part. But then why did i recieve a visit? I don't know i've been gripped with fear since. Keeping watch on my porch, almost sleeping outside some nights. And then yesterday my wife's friends parents who are an hour north of us got a visit. Only the mom was home and she told them to hit the street. These people are farmers and have guns but mostly Fudd guns and relics passed down. The father was going somewhere on business this weekend and next week. He cancelled. Even the Fudds aren't safe from this. My only solace in all of this is the 3 massive volumes the jackboots had. I know i'm not the only one. I don't know what to do?! It took this long for me to tell somebody else. My wife and i are scared [crap]less!I'm not sure if they are testing the waters seeing who will comply. Or if it's something else entirely. Why down here? Why not in Commiefornia or one of these other liberal dreamlands? I thougt we were good we just voted to strengthen the 2nd in our state. i just keep saying in my head. WTF?
Good night and sweet dreams, y’all!
G’night ‘Face! :)
And with that unintentional milestone, I am REALLY outta here!
Ta!
G’night SG! See you tomorrow.
If vehicles are involved in your lifestyle, placing the clothes in a tub or two with water and detergent, and taking them for a ride on a bumpy road will provide all the agitation you'll need. Then it's a rinse or two and hanging them out for the fusion-powered clothes drier.
Wringer washers may or may not be available, but the same type of wringer is used for mop buckets.
Come the (rest of the) apocalypse, I expect all of you to have your appropriate Plans B and C in place, and your vestments looking spiffy.
Think that's bad, wait til you see the dryer after it finishes off finishes drying the pillow!
I see you found the properties that allow it to replace witch hazel as an astringent...
Enos?
[Ahem] I’m all right again now. A beer and some nice salmon with low-carb pasta and Alfredo sauce put me to rights.
Gonna give me lessons in how to suck eggs while you’re at it?
Here’s a hint; use the rinse water from one load for the next load’s wash water.
Silentgypsy can tell you how to make soap.
Save your fireplace ashes.
I make soap. I have made all our bath and hand soap since 1999.
I know we’ve talked about it, but I may have misremembered.
If Google can’t remember it for me, I don’t always know how to look it up.
I also remember that you don’t use hardwood ashes.
.
What worries me though, is that if we have to go back to outhouses, there aren’t any Sears catalogs.
low-carb pasta brand?
No, I do not use hardwood ashes. I use commercially available lye, pure NaOH, even though I am familiar with the egg-test for lye content in wood ash. I also use cooking oils like almond, sesame, and olive. Butters are also included, mango and shea, and coconut oil. A small amount of castor oil helps with lather as well.
Dreamfields. It’s amazing.
