bulls-eye 2


BULLS-EYE 2

Okay, I’m glad I got that tirade off my chest.  Bulls-eye prepping is easy peasy pudding pie.  You supply yourself with the very bare minimum.  If the ass falls out of civilization ( a distinct possibility every single day now ), you are prepared.  If the can is kicked down the road, you keep upgrading to better and better quality.  This is the difference between the Glorious Bison Prepping Way and Everybody Else Who Is Unworthy Way Of Prepping.  Their way is to ever so slowly and surely work at prepping to that forty acres, a mule and freeze dried Yak testicles.  If anything really bad happens, their preps generally do not exceed a 72 hour food kit, a plastic tarp, a plastic compass and a $2,000 AR-15 with glowing red dot scope and ninety round drum magazine.  How many times has Rawles run an article on some five year prepping Yuppie who is barely beyond the researching and intense bible study phase ( again, not to pick on the man- he is but the latest in a long line of carbon copy survivalists gurus.  If nothing bad happens for the next twenty years, his advice is golden.  If something does, not so much )?  It seems that there is an article similar to this almost every week.  My heart ALMOST goes out to these people.  If I cared more I’d write inoffensive generic non-inflammatory, politically correct Jesus preaching meek pleas to get more readers, then rationally and calmly implore them to prep smarter and quicker.  But, hey, screw ‘em.

*

They wouldn’t listen anyway.  For those that will, here is your target.  My Infamous $500 Frugal Survivalist Plan.  Wheat and a bolt action rifle, a grinder and filter and some ammo.  You really can’t do this on $500 anymore unless your long gun is a single shot 12 gauge.   But with about $800 you can buy a new modern bolt action, a spam can or two of commie carbine ammo ( the steel case thirty cent a round in 762x39 or 223 ), a good Corona grinder and Katadyn water filter element and a year’s supply of wheat in buckets.  One assumes you have plenty of warm clothing and a pick and shovel to build an improvised dug out ( have a good piece of plastic or two ) and some warm blankets ( you don’t have the clothing to put you on a bicycle in the winter?  What happens if the Saudi main refinery is taken out by ISIS?  You don’t have wool blankets and a feather comforter for sleeping without central heat?  What happens when the can can’t be kicked down the road anymore by the central bank and we are seeing 50% unemployment? ).  This is your primary target to shoot for.  Even a poor slob on retirement or minimum wage and scrape up, even with some difficulty, $500-$800.  Anyone can be prepped, now.  Next article, we expand outside the bulls-eye and further our preps to a more luxurious and improved level.

prep bulls-eye


PREP BULLS-EYE

Way back in the day, Howard Ruff ( one of the original Yuppie Scum Survival Guru’s ) in his still pertinent today book “How To Prosper During The Coming Bad Years” ( regardless of what gold did or didn’t do, his advice on prepping in general is outstanding ) gave a bulls-eye target description on food storage.  In the middle was grains, the next ring beans and powdered milk.  One ring outside that was vitamin supplements and freeze dried meats or what have you.  It’s been a few years since I re-read the book so I’m going by memory here.  The point was, the bulls-eye was the bulk or your calorie count, the target to shoot for.  Everything else was added to that to improve it.  But the bulls-eye was primary.  Between Ruff and Kurt Saxon, I was sold on the concept of Mostly Wheat survival storage eight years before I ever put my first stash together ( I first started studying survivalism in High School, then did my time in the military-it took awhile to get to the point I was allowed to do something about trying to save my own life in a future calamity.  Which should say something to you about the benevolence of authority ).  I’d like to shamelessly steal the bulls-eye target concept and apply it to your prepping in general.  Where Ruff was talking about food, here we talk about the entire prepping effort from food to weapons to land and shelter.

*

You all know how I feel about Gott Damn Yuppies and their peacock feather class consciousness toy acquisition.  Oh, potential mates of fair skin and buxomly torso, look at my swank city McMansion.  Look at my SUV.  Look at my SECOND home out in the boonies with gigawatts of power from solar cells better to power your hair dryer and curling iron after the zombie apocalypse ( giggle, hee-hee, it’s oh so very quaint and funny to prepare! ).  Look at my muscular He-Mannish bug out vehicle, it’s larger wheel base compensating for my smallish manhood yet highlighting my ginormous wallet.  Look at my sexy semi-auto arsenal!  I Are Survival-Man, hear me roar and attract sufficiently worthy breeding material.  This is the subconscious motivating attitude you can almost smell oozing out of the pores of 99% of all survival writing ( to be fair, most don’t even know they are doing it because they are non-writer hacks merely blatantly copying the more successful- read, the financially successful ).  And also to be fair, since Alpha Male pack leader commercially successful writers don’t engage in a lot of navel gazing, they don’t even know this is why they are doing what they are doing.  To them, anthropology and evolutionary biology are mere buzzwords associated with unworthy nerdly underlings beyond their notice ( and, no, this isn’t sour grapes.  It is hilarity at watching a circus just as if it were the sincere yet empty political rhetoric prior to a fixed election ).

CONTINUED TOMORROW

Alex, you wonderful bastard!  Got your paper copy of “Ebola: Understanding And Preparing For An Outbreak” in the mail yesterday.  I’ve already loaned it to a volunteer at work, one I’m trying to convert to the Dark Side.  Many thanks!

lesson learned


LESSON LEARNED

Ebola might still be a “thing”, or it might just have been another Y2K.  Not that I’m urging you to let down your guard, as its only been like two weeks into the 21 day period the initial folks are waiting to show symptoms.  It could suddenly explode just as easy as it could die off quicker than a tropical village.  My point today is, did you learn any lesson from being suddenly confronted with the possibility of pandemic?  Besides learning I’m most likely going to die, the wife STILL not properly taking care of herself and so still going to the hospital regularly ( I know better than to assume that scorpion will change its ways and not bite the frog crossing the river ), my main take was that I need to beef up my Alpha Strategy items a bit better.  To me, I was just reminded of more futile efforts I need to concentrate on.  And you?  Did you find out you couldn’t go anywhere?  Did you suddenly see a glaring hole in your preps?  Discover that your preps were for the wrong disaster?  It is no big deal.  As they say, better to die in training than on the field of battle.  Brew up a pot of coffee, give the kids ten bucks each and tell them to get the heck out of the house awhile ( if they are too young, give them some 50% off Halloween candy and tell them to go tricycle in traffic ), sit down with a pad of paper and evaluate, reevaluate and make some concrete moves tomorrow. 

*

I hate to keep repeating myself ( although, how else could I keep publishing this blog ), but you don’t have twenty years to prep.  How we in the movement ever went from the imminent Soviet ICBM attack ( better two years early that two minutes late ) intense paranoia to our current, yawn, no worries, slow and steady wins the race, is beyond my comprehension.  No, wait, I do understand why.  Because our wages have stagnated in the face of inflation, it takes five times longer to buy all the middle class toys Doomers need than decades previous.  So rather than teach how to do without the toys, the time period to acquire the toys was expanded.  And I’m the crazy one?  That is stupid beyond belief.  Beyond Obammy Stupid.  You buy the bare bones, and you are covered if the ass falls out of civilization tomorrow.  Then work towards the toys.  Always plan for the worse, and do it quickly.  You bet on the wrong horse, you lose the race.

*

A fun read.  David weber’s “Out Of The Dark”.  Now, don’t spend serious money on it.  Perhaps only get it from the library.  I don’t much care for his regular series on the female outer space captain.  Honor Harrington or some such.  But he does write well.  This one is a Survivalist Lite turns militia porn, going from alien invasion to vampire story.  Yet somehow it works.

combat cupcakes


COMBAT CUPCAKES

I’m starting to enjoy this guy:


In short, women have no business in combat for basic physical limitation reasons, not to mention all the other assorted details nobody that is brainless or politically correct- but, I repeat myself- will talk about.  If you are too enthralled with my drivel to go to the above link, one raghead is holding up the severed head of a female and yucking it up for the camera.  You will NOT see this picture in any US military recruitment offices.  Not that recruiters are all that necessary, the economy being what it is in so many areas for so many decades now.  Which does tell you that fems will join also, if they want to be anything other than impoverished breeders.  But joining and being trained for any job that puts them anywhere close to the sharp end of the stick is pretty damn stupid.  Alas, it seems that 18 year old females are about as head up ass retarded as any 18 year old male.  They buy into the propaganda of feminists and the PC’ers.  Hell, even corporate types shovel this kind of crap into their laps, making no distinctions between the physical capabilities.  Look at any entry level job application. “Are you capable of lifting fifty pounds repeatedly?”  Who is going to check ‘NO’ unless they can barely lift more than the pencil it takes to fill out the form?

*

I get tired of arguing with morons.  It is really simple.  Can men have babies?  Even the most ardent FemiNazi butch dyke can’t argue that one, even if you do have to hear all kinds of crap about how they SHOULD have to, etc.  Can women lift half their body weight in combat gear, or wrestle with an opponent with far superior upper body strength?  To equate women with men physically and psychologically, is to deny reality.  The only successful warrior role model that can be used is that of a terrorist, and that is comparing apples to oranges because bushwacking is NOT modern nation state infantry combat.  Now, I could care less what the military does in its stupidity.  I feel for young people tricked into joining, and I pray they will survive one tour of officer trickery and disinterest and official attitude of the peasants being good for nothing more than cannon fodder, and be able to escape.  But when survivalists see this crap from the military, or are just as ignorant and emulate the military or write this crap into post-apocalypse fiction, my ass starts to chap.   Bitches be breeders, and damn good ones.  They are nurturers and far superior than males in this regard.  They bring a completely different skill set than males, and we are all the better for it.  Centerfire firearms are an aberration to the human race, gender difference wise, and should not be considered the norm.  Only with firearms can fems be equal in combat, and even then only under controlled conditions ( this applies to LEO’s, also ).  Aside from last ditch home defense, females have no business fighting.  Not if you want a stable harmonious society.  The Oil Age is NOT how to do things in a Solar Age.

rude twats


RUDE TWATS

I’m sure I’ve commented on this before, but it was raised to my level of awareness just now so since I’m stressed, you get to share.  It is just as easy for scum suckling anal whores to sell Food Stamps now that they are on a debit card as when they were paper coupons.  You have to be a bit more creative, but it is easy enough ( to be clear, I have absolutely no issue with folks on assistance.  Mainly it is corporations who benefit, not “welfare cheats”.  I don’t care for the following however ).  These douchebags sell off half of their food amount for half of THAT amount for cash, then buy crack or booze ( or in the case of Nevada, gamble with it ) and cry and moan two to three weeks into the month that they are Starving Marvin’s and must have more food assistance.  And then mosey on down to the Food Bank and load up on groceries.  Now, I pick up a LOT of friggin food.  I average two thousand pounds a day.  A lot of that is produce scraps fit only for compost or pigs, but way over half is salvageable and given out to clients.  And 90% of what I get is perishable food.  I HAVE to get rid of it quickly and I push it on people, badgering them to take the maximum amount.  However, as far as shelf goods, cans and dry groceries, we are just as impoverished here as in any other Food Bank in the country ( we can stay amazingly generous by giving out mostly perishables ).

*

So, while I can give out spoilable goods til the cows come home, giving everyone more than they want, I quickly run into issues if too many folks want dry goods instead.  And when too many Krack Kunts come crying because their Food Stamps run out, regular underemployed parents don’t get as much food.  Crackheads are literally taking food out of small children’s mouths on any occasion too many of them congregate with palsy hands stretched out.  This pisses me off to no end.  But you know, it isn’t just those types of folks.  Rudeness is pandemic and widespread.  No one gives two craps about anyone else, and hides that even from themselves by never thinking about it.  A civil society wouldn’t have such a large population of Takers, anyway, but I won’t open that large can of worms ( I’ll just say, quickly, that our winner take all, 1% economy shares a lot of blame- not that it could be any other way in a Resource Down environment ).  What I want you to understand, is that this is just the most obvious example of folks not caring to the point of literally endangering others.  When you are wrestling with the dilemma of initiating force against others, keep in mind that most likely they already harmed others ( state granted monopoly businesses enriched by keeping others from working, LEO’s throwing people in prison for life for victimless crimes for their own job security, military personnel killing unarmed foreigners for our oil monopoly- and, no, I’m not judging these folks.  Force against other tribes is natural.  It doesn’t bother the winners and only sucks to be the losers ).  Show no mercy to the rude twats of the world!

*

I think I’m leaning back towards a 500 word count article.  Just as when I tried to cut the length before, 400 words just isn’t enough to adequately deliver the message.
