Lori Vallow packed her bags for a weekend trip to St. George, Utah, in late October 2018. She
and a few friends were traveling north from Arizona to attend a weekend preppers conference held at a local high school. At the time, Vallow was married to her fourth husband and had two children and adopted another. But that didn’t stop her from catching the eye of the author and seminar speaker she was here to see. Chad Daybell had already built a reputation, the former Utahn whose apparent near-death experiences had prompted his foray into the world of preppers —...

I’m a doomsday prepper — here’s everything you need to know about surviving a catastrophic event
|

Doomsday prepping was once a concept people believed was reserved for conspiracy theorists and paranoid uncles, but fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic is leading more and more Americans to plan ahead in the event of a future catastrophe. Amid
a recovering supply chain, two brewing conflicts involving nuclear powers, hackers bent on compromising electric infrastructure, the possibility of solar flares and concerns about engineered bioweapons, Nelson said it is not unrealistic to look at the world today and say: How prepared am I to take care of my family?” “Americans have this Armageddon-type thing where they think that there’s a...

It’s a Weird Time to Be a Doomsday Prepper

The Atlantic ^
If you’re looking for a reason the world will suddenly end, it’s not hard to find one—especially if your job is to convince people they need to buy things to prepare for the apocalypse. “World
War III, China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Joe Biden—you know, everything that’s messed up in the world,” Ron Hubbard, the CEO of Atlas Survival Shelters, told me. His Texas-based company sells bunkers with bulletproof doors and concrete walls to people willing to shell out several thousand—and up to millions—of dollars for peace of mind about potential catastrophic events. Lately, interest in his underground bunkers has...

"I'm building something so if things do go south, I have a place to take my family."Josh Duhamel isn't taking a chance with the impending apocalypse, whether that ends up being a result of war, another pandemic, global warming, artificial intelligence, or some other horror we haven't dreamed up yet. In
a recent interview, the 50-year-old actor revealed that he has a property in North Dakota which started out as an off-the-grid cabin with no electricity or running water, but has now been transformed into an entire doomsday compound. And if it comes down to it, Duhamel says he and...

Suggestions for Prepper Supplies
|
| |
5/27/2023 | Me
Good morning fellow Freepers. I wanted to take this opportunity to pick your brains. I
am looking for suggestions on where to shop for prepper supplies. Most websites want to sell you a huge bucket of stuff, most of which I'd probably never use. What I am looking for instead is a website (besides Amazon of course) where I could go to in order to purchase what I want to acquire. For instance, I can't find any place that will sell individual packets of dried milk, or crackers, stuff like that. The reason I am asking for help is because...

Boric Acid (How to use boric acid if you're a prepper or survivalist)

Happy Preppers ^
Boric acid is a low-toxicity mineral with insecticidal, fungicidal, and herbicidal properties. Boric
Acid, which kills roaches, water bugs, ants, fleas and silverfish. With boric acid powder, insects walk through the dust, ingest it, and die within hours. While boric acid is a pesticide, you'll find boric acid used in fertilizers, household cleaners, laundry detergents, and even personal care products. You also may be surprised to know that boric acid is a component of a baby's mattress, and even food, but it is! Boric acid is an antiseptic. The trick is that you must use boric acid in a diluted...

Prepper essentials: What to do if you run out of water when SHTF
|

| 5/11/22 | Zoey Sky
While stocking up on supplies before SHTF, preppers also need to figure out how to stock up enough water for drinking, cooking and other tasks. Read
on to learn what to do if you suddenly lose access to clean water. (h/t to RoguePreparedness.com) If you live off-grid, you’re probably used to either having a well or hauling water from the nearest body of water. However, you should also learn how to deal with lack of access to water so you know how much to stock up on. You need water for drinking to prevent dehydration, cooking, hygiene and cleaning. But...

Lessons From An Underground Economy (Venezuela Prepper Advice))
|
| |
Zubu Brothers ^
| 12-27-2021 | J.G.Martinez via The Organic Prepper blog,
How is it possible to survive a nation with inflation rates of 20%/month and 1700%/year? The
answer? The underground economy. This is the level of hyperinflation we have found ourselves with here in Venezuela, and considering the spread of inflation worldwide, it would be well worth the prepper’s time to glean what we can learn here. Virtually everything you read dictates inflation on this scale necessitates civil war. Yet Venezuela hasn’t seen this. Why not? Why are the streets not being taken by armed civilians? While the main reason revolves around 20 years of disarmament and anti-self-defense teachings, I would...

BiWeekly Prepper Thread (for these strange days)

7/10/2021
This is the BiWeekly Prepper Thread for all things prepping.In these Strange Days, it's not a bad idea to have a little set back. Or
a lot. I think we all saw empty shelves last year. We didn't go without though. Since I'm a prepper, I stocked up on TP and food and even bought a small freezer for meat when I saw empty shelves in Italy. My wife no longer thinks my prepping mentality is a little wacky, 20 years later. This year is turning out to be the year of systems hacking. Extreme weather events can happen most...

“We’re Prepared for Just About Anything That Comes” (Prepper)

Texas Monthly ^

On a remote property near Terlingua, a prepper community is thriving.Ten years ago, my wife and I started a disaster preparation service, also called a mutual assistance group, out on our land in West Texas. Word got out about us on Yahoo chat groups and Texas preparedness groups. I
got on there and started talking. Then, once we started getting interest, we vetted members: If you’re a loose cannon with a big gun and lots of money, I don’t want to have anything to do with you. If you have something to contribute, for the good of all, you’re welcome....

A prepper reveals what she keeps in her pantry — and what you should have, too

Fox News ^
| March 24 2020 | Michael Bartiromo
Deborah D. Moore knows a thing or two about prepping her pantry for an extended period of time, having lived most of her life as a “prepper” before there was even a word to describe “prepping.” “When
I was a newlywed, just 19 years old, we lived in Detroit,” explained Moore, the author of “A Prepper’s Cookbook,” in an interview with Fox News. “I heard there was a snow storm coming and we were to stay off the roads … I checked my cupboards and we had a half loaf of bread and two cans of soup.” As Moore told...

The Surprisingly Solid Mathematical Case of the Tin Foil Hat Gun Prepper
Or, “Who Needs an AR-15 Anyway?”

The Medium ^
| 4/20/2018 | BJ Campbell
As gun policy discussions unfold in the wake of mass shooter incidents, they routinely end in three buckets. ThereÂ’s
the “tyranny can never happen here” bucket, which the left has mostly abdicated in the wake of Trump winning after they called (and still call) him a tyrant. There’s the “you can’t fight the army with small arms” bucket, which is increasingly unsound given our ongoing decade-and-a-half war with Afghani tribal goat herders. And there’s the “what the hell do you need an AR-15 for anyway?” bucket, which, by its very language, eschews a fundamental lack of understanding of what those...

Charges of breaching Germany’s War Weapons Control Act, its civil arms law and fraud had been laid against the four accused, said public prosecutors in Schwerin, the regional capital of Mecklenburg-West Pomerania (MV) state on Wednesday. All the officers worked for the state’s arm of the SEK. Lorenz Caffier, Christian Democrat (CDU)
interior minister in the state’s grand coalition cabinet headed by Social Democrat Manuela Schwesig, said he was “profoundly shocked and bewildered” by the turn of events and promised an “airtight” investigation. Regional prosecutors, acting on findings of a 2017 probe by federal prosecutors, effected the arrests on Wednesday...
