“The Mindset”—the idea among Silicon Valley doomsday preppers that “winning” means earning enough money to escape the damage that befalls everyone else.

I don't have the money to buy that level of prep, or the varied skills and time to do it on the cheap. I accpt the possibility that in a real SHTF situation that I might just well die. I hope that I am given the Grace by God to die a Holy Death, and that I can protect my wife and children somehow.

Many bunker manufactures say they are on a 3 year back order and more after Biden and stooges are in charge.

Squirrel Haggis and Japanese Knotweed Reach UK Menus as Invasive Species Trend Grows

The Guardian ^ | Sat 27 May 2023 | Tomé Morrissy-Swan

The rise of ‘invasivorism’ has introduced a range of unusual eating choices as diners strive for a more ethical diet

It can be grilled like asparagus, mixed into a sweet-sour ripple ice-cream or even turned into a beer. When guests arrive at Silo, a “zero-waste” restaurant in east London, next month they’ll be treated to a series of dishes from an unlikely source. It is more famous as the scourge of homeowners, but for some, the solution to the Japanese knotweed crisis is to serve it for dinner.

Eating invasive species – called “invasivorism” – is increasingly fashionable as people search for ethical diets. In London, at The Ninth in Fitzrovia, three-cornered leek, a milder version of wild garlic, has been whipped into aioli, while at Native in Mayfair it is used alongside asparagus. At Seasonality in Maidenhead you can tuck into muntjac deer tartare, while Edinburgh’s The Palmerston uses sika deer extensively.

I do not envision Big Sur as an ideal location for bunkers. When the earthquake hits, they will be under the ocean.

I would think somewhere closer to Idaho Falls, or even Caribou Maine would suffice.

New Zealand is basically like the Falkland Islands or Patagonia Argentina.

Preppers aren't the ones demanding government restrict people's freedoms to honor their belief that civilization is about to end.

The warmageddonists are the ones doing that.

I’m a meso-prepper. Due to location and prep skills, I’ll last barely five years if limited nuke or EMP. Will be hunting after year five if the ammo is not spent on intruders. My curiosity hike from my mountain place back down to Denver will likely be what kills me.

The elites and WEF worshippers have their supply of food and will watch us starve or kill each other as they continue to destroy the world.

I would love to see some city tech worker survive a day without their cell phone. Then give them a cow and a knife and say, “that’s all you have to eat for the next two months.

Doomsday Prepper

The last one that says I warned ya then digs a hole for you.

Better safe then sorry even China has 2000 or more miles of tunnels for a reason.

My prep started out as a way to survive the occasional storm related outages ..usually enough for a couple week.
But then long came Obama/Biden.
Much worse than any emergency storm outage.
