GUEST ARTICLE
post 1 of 2 today
***

I always have fun doing mental exercising of “What If?”
Combine that with everyone’s favorite subject, EDC, and you can have some real discussions on what a person should be carrying.   Of course, the real answer is, “what works for you”.
I have always preferred to split up my EDC into several categories. Cat 1 is the things in my pockets that allow me to get by if I get stuck for a couple days and not able to get home. Since 99% of my time is urban-ish, I am not worried about carrying tents or camp stoves or axes or what not. If I am going to be in the woods or anticipate having to travel a distance, I have a Get Home Bag for those things.   But what I carry should help me if I do not have my bag with me. In the city you can always find a doorway, parking garage or empty building to avoid the weather.
The idea here is, “What if I get stuck for a day or two with just with what is in my pockets?” When I travel for work, I am more likely to get stuck in an airport than in the woods. So, what I carry must be able to go thru TSA as well.
I like to think I have thought this thru fairly carefully.   But of course I expect others to have different thoughts.   So:
Front Left Pocket:
---A watertight tube with a key ring (with keys of course) - on the key ring is a small flashlight (Olight 3E EOS good for about 40 min of decent light) and nail clippers (always good for trimming strings too)
Inside the tube I carry 5 days of medications (diabetes, sadly) and some over the counter meds
*2 aspirin - pain relief and heart attacks. If you don't know about this, read up on it.
*3 Imodium - diarrhea is never fun
*2 Pepto Bismal tablets - actually helps fight food poisoning along with its other uses
*3 Benadryl - obvious allergic reaction use, light sleep aid
--- Lever Gear multi tool - no sharp edges, so TSA compliant (I travel for work sometimes) which is also a money clip
---Inexpensive Cree AA flashlight - (day to day use to save the Olight battery)
Rear Left Pocket:
--- Wallet (Pelican watertight just for some cards) and 20x20 bandanna - too many uses to list! water strainer, mask, towel, Furoshiki cloth, etc.
Rear Right Pocket:
--- Pocket knife (if I am flying, it goes in my checked bag)
--- Regular handkerchief (obvious uses)
Front Right Pocket:
--- Maxpedition MX3526KF-BRK zippered pouch. (This pouch setup lets me toss it into the tray when going thru TSA without having to pull it all out.)
Inside is:
*2 USB sticks (1 with bootable Linux & other with personal stuff)
*Lighter/ 1 Tinderquick in small Ziplock (quit smoking years ago, but still useful)
*Burt's Bee Chapstick (obvious use and with a piece of paper or cotton is also a good burning fire starter)
*2 Glucose tabs (in small Ziplock) (that diabetes thing again)
*p38 can opener (if you don't know what it is, you need to get out more)
*4 Aqua Tabs in sealed package (enough to clean 2 quarts of water - I can always find a container on the ground somewhere in the city)
*2 Homey compressed towels (in small Ziplock)(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075RPZCP1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
You really need to check these out... basically a wet wipe without the water until you add it. Only takes about a bottle cap of water
*5 feet of 550 paracord (again, too many uses to list) with split key ring on end (finger grip)
*1 oz silver bullion coin (good luck piece and possible trade/barter/bribe)
*Some cash
*2 flat tooth wipes (mini brushes that fit on your finger) and a little floss.
 
*2 Band-Aids.
 

---Around my neck on chain.
*Allergy identification tag (in case I am unable to tell medical personnel myself)
*1/10 ounce gold Maple Leaf coin (I figure if I am stranded I can always pawn it for at least $100, maybe more)
*Another small flashlight (can never have too many - I think I might have a problem)

I know it sounds like a lot, but most of the small things fit into the pouch and none of it is really very large. Of course, I have not included my cell phone, and I can neither confirm nor deny the presence of any type of self-defense.
 
Let the discussion begin.

trump riots


TRUMP RIOTS
Police precincts burning to the ground are never a very comforting visual for the remaining middle class huddled in their last sanctuary in the suburbs, surrounded by many different Bad Actors. Even less is when many riots in many cities Copy Cat the original Disadvantaged Youth Protests and almost nothing is being done. Bush Sr was a nasty foul bastard, but at least he was OUR bastard and deployed nearly a quarter of our existing combat units to L.A. What has Trump done? His usual, talking tough on Twitter while inquisitively exploring what might appear to be cancerous growths in his rectum with his thumb.
*
I'll admit, I appreciate Trumps foreign policy, where he does absolutely nothing, because we would get our asses kicked. But domestically? He leaves Silicon Valley alone until it is too late, waiting three and half years while conservatives are dissent silenced. He does nothing as governors wipe their asses with the Bill Of Rights, both with the Red Flag laws and Corona. And now he is doing nothing while the Blue Clusters Of Enlightenment burn to the ground. I LIKE a President who does nothing to screw me, but I don't appreciate him doing nothing, which results in me being screwed.
*
Now, obviously, I write these articles ahead of time, so I could be proven wrong. I sincerely doubt it, which is why I'm pretty confident posting this. Trump didn't spend millions of his own money just to be a Do Nothing President. So I think it fair to guess he is just a puppet like all the rest, Red Shield's arm up his ass as he nods his Head amusingly like a Bobble. People put their faith in The Donald, because they are sick and tired and afraid. If they are NOT afraid, they are asleep. And when you worship a False Idol, your ass gets smited.
*
Look, I was only relieved when Trump got elected. Anyone but Hilary means exactly that. I never followed his doings closely, because I refuse to watch or read MSM and because the few times I ran across him, his voice was as grating and nauseating as Obammy's was. I just excused him as being old and senile. If I want that, I can go visit the local Old Humps Home and get a bonus whiff of fecal filled drawers. But at least Trump pretty much left things alone, unlike Black Jesus who wasting zero time taxing the crap out of me.
*
Towards the end of his term, however, he started really pissing me off as it became more and more apparent even to the casual observer that the man was a Rothschild's agent ( perhaps Epstein had pictures of him naked, and his dingus is a corkscrew shape like a pig, and so he was coerced. I don't know, and I don't care to know. His actions bespeak of a compromised politician ). And I'm okay with that. Me? I EXPECT exactly that. Other people, on the other hand, are very busy trying to piss me off even more as they waste no time, and in fact nearly bowl me over in their haste, STILL believing that Orange Man will save them.
*
News flash, boys and girls. NOBODY is coming to save you. Just as the British Empire was doomed as soon as it tried to save itself against rival colonial powers by expending far too much treasure to do so, so too is the American Empire already so far in debt that it is over, done and finish, knowing it or not ( Churchill, to read respected-revered and respected until certain groups of an unnamed religious persuasion flipped the narrative-historian David Irving, was a bit less successful or competent than the propaganda of the day has it. An empire lying to itself that it could save itself. Sound familiar? ).
*
I accuse nobody of ignorance or stupidity. It is perfectly natural, human nature, to live in denial. I can no more dislike someone for hoping against reality than I can blame horny teenagers for only thinking with their Little Brain ( it amuses me no end when some dumb ass, usually a female, asks a young male to kindly start using his other brain. As if they have a choice. It's called hormones, and if YOUR brains were made of other than feces, you would know this ). I can only make my case against false hope, and then hope against hope you understand my message.
*
It has been far too long into the decline to think there is any more hope, of recovery or even just of a deceleration of decline. Even now, I'm reading of the cycles of conservative and liberal tendencies in the US, as if math will save us. Those cycles were NOT based on energy supplies. That is the reason I dismissed any economic cycles. If they are based on money, they are worthless. Money is only a proxy for energy. Money was accepted because it was based on something other than government promises. Most people are retarded, but they are also greedy. They look after themselves first, and when money feeds them they pay a LOT of attention to money.
*
They might make fundamental blunders, such as believing their stocks and bonds are safe ( because they ignored the energy equation ), but generally the public as a whole is pretty quick to reject money if it loses its backing. Which would explain why gold and silver were coveted after the dollar lost gold backing under Nixon, and why they support our military adventures to protect our oil backed dollar now ( while even months into zero global economic activity, you see few runs to gold or silver by the public. If you did, you could bet a jelly filled donut silver would cost far more than a mere $28 ). There is a sixth sense about this, in general.
*
I think blaming Panic alone on bank runs dismisses this general herd behavior of knowing instinctively how to protect money. I think you could even make a case for a hardwired herd behavior, as money has been very important in relation to survival for about seven or eight thousand years. Both nationally, as universal money secured food from areas not suffering the ravages of nature, and individually as a means of escape from that blighted area. Does it stand to reason that perhaps a Lizard Brain awareness of money was a surviving DNA trait?
*
Military adventure support ( notice the lack of general disapproval over the Bay Of Pigs Venezuela invasion? Anything to do with the supposed One BILLLION [ Dr Evil laugh inserted ] Years Of Fracking Oil supply? ) and even a ATM cash run ( conveniently circumvented by an about face Corona Black Death Pandemic complete retail shut-down ), both support this theory, but I'll admit this is just number 5,647 out of one million theories I diligently work on daily. But wouldn't the seemingly irrational support of Sandbox Wars and fracking oil also hint at the public being subconsciously aware that oil IS their money?
*
Could this be why Hilary was so popular? Not because she was a woman or because she was more communist than Lenin, but because she was OUR bastard who kicked Libyan ass when they foolishly called for the end of the dollar monopoly? Perhaps a herd has a certain awareness, even if a mob is collectively stupider than its dumbest member. The herd saw Hilary The Alzheimer Poster Girl, and knew she could no longer Bring Home The Oil. Which doesn't bode well for Biden, regardless of Trumps handling of rioters ( this discounts the Ringer Theory, obviously ).
*
Of course, the problem with this Herd Intelligence is that it is also by its very nature delusional. Being desperate to save their Food Vouchers, doing whatever it takes, this doesn't leave any room for accepting the fact that we are past the point of saving. So the Trump Delusion will continue to the very sad end. But is that a bad thing? As long as the public has hope, the riots stay very small and local ( even the old L.A. Riots were pretty safely contained, unless your name was Reginald Denny ). I think we'll continue tomorrow with this.

note: just as an item of interest, the NOL went to Wally yesterday and noticed the sewing machines were mostly all gone.  One would think from all the homemade masks for Beer Virus.  So when no more are coming from China, or the Taiwan models are 3x expensive, there goes most peoples ability to sew their own clothes again like our mothers used to do.

when lies lack credibility 2


WHEN LIES LACK CREDIBILITY 2
Conspiracy theories are in the main mental masturbation, wishful thinking, irrational and superstitious. But as I said yesterday, they are STILL more credible than all the crap coming from the bankers, government, corporations and the media ( which all form a Borg Of Occupation ). Do I believe in Area 51, Roswell, contrails, Orange Man 3D Chess, Anonymous, One World Government, Evil Jewish Cabals or most of the other crap? Of course I don't. But I WILL explore them for a time until I get bored of them, while I automatically discard anything the Borg says, not even bothering to read even the shortest article.
*
I'm NOT picking and choosing the One Official Conspiracy To Believe. I'm exercising my mental reasoning so as to make it easier to come to my own conclusions. Do I believe Red Shield runs the One World Government? No. I DO believe they fund and control key areas, and have enough influence to direct the wealth pump their way. That is a far cry from thinking they sit in a smoke filled room and plan out the slow implementation of gun control. As I've covered before, most gun control follows regional demographics. Minority Blacks and Hispanics fear White Boys, who own most of the guns, and don't want “their” cities or states full of White Armed Dudes. And politicians sell their souls.
*
Any gun control unwanted stems from the practice of one or two cities to control the states votes. There is no Gun Control Conspiracy needed. And yes, I understand that is simplistic. Also throw in White Communist Enclaves also fearing White Barbarians. There is, obviously, SOME federal interference. But broad stroking it, there you go. It is influential voters fearing they might lose their new found Former White Worker Wealth. Is THAT even a conspiracy theory? Blacks and Hispanics get preferential hiring quotas as do females and faggots. Kind of hard to argue against those stats.
*
How many White Males DIDN'T get caught up in the same generational Child Support wealth transfer? How can you argue with the suicide statistics correlating to the end of White Male employment? Hell, dude, you don't even need a conspiracy theory as much as you just need to disbelieve the Official Word From On High. JUST listening to dissent is enough to give lie to almost everything claimed by The Borg. The Borg says it's a conspiracy theory if you don't dismiss biology and proclaim 99 Bottles Of Genders On The Wall.
*
The demonizing of ANY dissent as a conspiracy theory has been so over abused that it is no longer an insult but a badge of honor to be labeled a conspiracy theory. Just don't ruin that by spouting bullcrap about UFO's ( any sufficiently advanced civilization capable of space flight at sufficient speeds would have already wiped us out and have colonized the Mediterranean and Southern California coast for a vacation destination ) or One World Government powered by room temperature fusion ( no one wants to pay to administer Africa-one world government makes no financial sense, especially not since Global Peak Oil ) or Jewish Domination ( they are JUST a tribe looking out for themselves, not Evil Incarnate ).
*
And a lot of what might be considered conspiracy theories are JUST mental shortcuts explaining events. I don't believe there are secret cabals directing Black Looter Hordes to attack White Suburban households. I DO believe putting communists or Blacks in the White House will ensure that Blacks are giving permission to do so of their own accord. I don't know if Obammy was actually a Kenyan or a Muslim or a homo, but I can clearly see that his Social Security number is faked, the place of birth nominator not matching the claims. So if I call him a Muslim, or a Fudge Packing Michelle Molester, I'm NOT saying I necessarily believe that, only that I believe The Official Claims to be nasty little horrid lies.
*
Most conspiracy theories are of the “Hitler Was Sighted With Elvis In Argentina” variety. They clearly make little sense or are arrived at through flights of fancy. Suspension of disbelief. But as long as you look at them as fables, with the lesson that When Nothing Can Be Believed, So Anything Is Possible, you STILL have a firmer grasp on reality than the Boomers do ( I'm not picking on Boomers, a product of their time. NOL is a Boomer, and she sure as crap is a much better women than those of my generation. I have several divorces worth of field research on this one ).
*
( I only single out Boomers for being True Believers. As far as their being singled out for cashing in and leaving Gen X on with nothing, they only acting to the supplied stimulus. Do you blame today's generation for bankrupting the government through unpaid college loans? Of course not, that would be stupid. It is the corporations that moved all the jobs overseas, then Orange Man for killing all the service jobs. I STILL see people cheering Trump, when he just unemployed a third of you. Are you even sentient? So why are Boomers blamed for anything? They took what was offered, from a system they had little input in )
*
Sure, the same folks who watch wrestling or Jerry Springer might believe in UFO's, just as Righties believe Trump cares about them. Or that Rawles knows what the hell he is talking about just because he was an Army Officer ( yeah, so were the idiots who wanted to start a nuclear war ). I just insulted Pastor Joe. No worries, dude. I listen to what you say, not what the degree in the picture frame says, to determine your credentials. Don't worry Yuppie Scum Preppers, I'm just picking on your Unicorn Cavalry Leader Guru Idol this week. By next week I'll have forgotten him and moved on, until offended by some new utterance.
*
Embrace conspiracies. They are fun, they can be educational, and they are most likely far closer to the truth than any Borg transmission.

when lies lack credibility


WHEN LIES LACK CREDIBILITY
When everything anyone in authority ( or, purporting to speak for authority, as in the media ) tells you turns into not just lies, not just damn lies, but statistics, and you conclude that you cannot believe anyone, a common alternate source is conspiracy theories. And the simple matter is not that conspiracies may or may not be true, it is that they are more credible than all the official sources, even if they mostly seem to be bullcrap. They are less likely to be disbelieved, which says more about the official truth than conspiracies themselves.
*
Yesterday, I started a new Stephen King book. Big deal, so what, who cares. I had read it before when it came out at the library and recall enjoying it, so I finally got around to buying my own copy. I'm trying really hard to stay off of YouTube and the TV, and quit reading the absolute drek on Kindle ( not to say there aren't any good ones, just that they are rare ). And not to say I cannot get good information off YouTube, just that I easily waste three to five hours at a time, blinded and in a stupor. But my point is, it was the one on the time traveler and the Kennedy assassination.
*
I find it more satisfying to read the authors afterward first ( don't ask me why-I haven't got around to over analyzing that yet ), and besides making a douche out of himself just having to throw in an anti-gun jab ( love your writing, bro, but hump you hard and dry on your Bill Of Rights dismissal. Don't make me go back and hope another van runs over your ass, because I have ZERO fear for my soul doing so. I'm looking forward to the day commies get necktied ), he made it absolutely plain he believes Oswald was in fact the lone gunman. What a tool! Perhaps if you weren't afraid of guns you'd know a bit more on that marksmanship problem.
*
Earth to Yankee Scum! Most military issue rifles were 4 MOA standard. Ask one of your butt buddies that lives in the real world what that means to your casual acceptance of the official narrative. King is of a generation of Trusters. They make me ill, and I say that even as my father ( much respect for the man, he earned it ) is one of their ilk. Your generation was tribal, and I understand loyalty to tribe is everything, but surely you cannot honestly tell me you STILL believe your Dear Leaders are on your side and have your best interests at heart? Loyalty MUST be both ways or it means dingus.
*
Yes, indeed, I WANT to believe the government, I want to think they have my back. I want to think I'm safe in my group again. But I'm not. Not for AT LEAST the last thirty years. Most Boomers have had at a minimum a semi-trustworthy government more that half their lives. I mean, these guys are not idiots. They knew all about nuclear fallout testing and shady businesses bribing shady Congressmen. They accepted that, because on the whole the system looked out for them and only rarely screwed up. They actually had a voice to correct any issues.
*
I don't know at exactly what point that ended, and it might be specific to each generation. But I'm going to guess, most likely, the fall of the Soviet Union was the end of any meaningful oversight of our government. Obviously that trend was ongoing, as the 60's and Nixon and everything else was no picnic in the park. Bitches Lib had been eroding social trust for decades. The importation of OtherColors was ongoing. But I would say the 80's were the last time of freedom. Ruby Ridge was the announcement Deplorables were no longer in charge or even cared about.
*
Masterful chess move, Red Shield. Get a Redneck Bubba in the White House to start off the war against White males and their wealth. You think Bush was an accident? Placing an evil Intelligence Services operator in charge, who made no secret he probably had a hand in the Kennedy assassination ( oh, I'm sorry! Did you think I had any sympathies towards the Warren Commission? ) and most likely sponsored Hinckley, their next pick of a banjo playing communist drug dealer was a slam dunk. If the end of the Cold War got us this screwed, I think I'd prefer a return to the threat of nuclear annihilation.
*
You know, despite all the contrary efforts by Hollywood to have us believe Black Bitches landed on the moon and Black soldiers won WWII, White Males bled and delivered us our empire, for good or ill, and most White Females sacrificed their health and lived poor to breed for casualty replacements. Forgive me if I think to the victors go the spoils. Forgive me if I'm NOT all right that OtherColors are handed the keys and Whites are dismissed and killed off. Not being racist doesn't justify that course of events. But anyway, to return to all the official lies and the easy acceptance of conspiracy theories.
*
To my mind, if I believe anything any recognized authority tells me, I'm a flaming retard. If I flirt with ANY conspiracy theory, giving not acceptance but at least a casual study of their probability for even the most absurd like cattle mutations and alien abductions, I'm AT LEAST exhibiting some proof that I have the ability to think for myself and am leery of yet more damn lies from a bunch of Gott Damn Liars. What is more inexcusable? Studying the improbable or accepting what is most probable of being BS?
*
Again, yes, blind obedience and guaranteed acceptance to a tribe IS wonderful, necessary even. It cannot function any other way. But once loyalty is no longer reciprocated, yours is no longer required. I think most confusion of realty today comes from still being loyal to the people you considered your tribe mates. A refusal to believe they betrayed you. To a Boomer, it is the most natural thing in the world to willingly pay into the Social Security system and to expect it to be there when they retire. Because they never admitted they were cast out and abandoned.
*

free to move about the country 2


FREE TO MOVE ABOUT THE COUNTRY 2
You could look at the Black Death Corona Virus as the worse economic collapse, ever in the history of American Empire. Even if the Orange Man Bucks keep people in their rented apartments ( you do understand that The New NEW Unemployment Bonus Checks has dingus all to do with Free Crap Army Welfare, and everything to do with bailing out the bankers with their rental property, yes? ), eventually critical crap breaks while we are all on vacation.
*
I haven't heard anyone talking about the ports being opened for China parts, have you? Wait long enough, and machines stop working. Where do the giant transformers come from, after hurricane damage? Hell, where do my underwear come from, as China had 90+% of that market share. Same with Vitamin C. Nothing that I panicked about three months ago has changed, to the best of my knowledge. Crap has not even begun to get real yet. And yes, I completely understand that I have very little information to go on. But I DO have enough to know Business As Usual is not very probable.
*
But, putting all that aside, this is also a once in a lifetime opportunity to use Beer Virus as an excuse to get the heck out of Dodge, leave the Rat Race, get your little piece of paradise. Before, when I rented, I was trapped. I couldn't NOT work. I couldn't just quit without major planning and effort. And, importantly to our discussion here, if Corona Chan had happened, I would have had zero options except hope I wasn't kicked out during unemployment. But once I owned land outright? My stress level went down so far so fast, it was a unique experience.
*
I've kissed parents asses, I've kissed spouses asses, I've kissed employers asses, all because I didn't have a paid for home. Not only was it degrading and emasculating, it was embarrassing. And all so unnecessary. Junk Land is the greatest invention since sliced white bread, and it can be accredited to the Internet and peoples greed, sloth and avoidance of lack of luxuries. Because Yuppie Scum Marshmallow People would rather pay a bribe to the town starting at $100 a month, just for the privileged of being near grid power and water, not including hook up fees and usage, any land beyond the grid is superficially low in price.
*
FOR NOW. Let me repeat that for those jocks hit too hard during football, or the blond princesses who make a living on their backs and get concussions from the headboard. You have a very limited amount of time-possibly just weeks ( because, you never can time the collapse )-in which to buy your junk land. Soon enough, there will NOT be any more available at today's prices. Now, if you're the sort to buy cases of ammo just weeks before the election, nothing I say can convince you that you must buy junk land now. Because prices AND fraud will skyrocket, later.
*
If you have two firing neurons, you get it. If the economy recovers, and it will not in my opinion but COULD, because What Wonders These Red Shield Fiends Yield, you have not wasted your money. It is still insurance, for the next Oil Induced Crash ( because, duh, it has to run out sometime, even though these crashes are because GROWTH of oil stopped, which happens much quicker than actual depletion ). If the economy doesn't recover, you got the last of the good prepper items.
*
BUT. This is not just a prepper item. This is a Freedom Item. If the economy never crashes, you still gain freedom from not having to pay rent ( just don't be a dumbass and build where the property taxes screw you ). You must kiss a LOT less ass. You can feel wholesome again, not some little worm prison bitch with fecal stained teeth ( wanna bet they don't have ATM's in prison? ). You may not even realize what a scumbag you are, until the codependent behavior ceases. To be clear, I wasn't able to prep like a big dog because I had more money. I was able to do so because I didn't have rent.
*
I was able to quit my piece of crap job and become self employed because I didn't have rent or a car ( the stress is there, because a paycheck is no longer guaranteed, but ANY job has stress, even the best jobs in the world ). It wasn't because I was living frugally. It was because I went BEYOND frugal. Not The Cheapest car, but No Car. Not just Really Cheap Rent but No Rent. $40 a year property taxes isn't really rent, now is it? Only technically. I'll gladly pay that. Now, granted, I live in town at the NOL's place. But I don't HAVE to. Just like you don't NEED that second job, so it doesn't stress you.
*
Geez, remember that, back in the 90's? Second jobs went begging and low consumer prices. We never went back to Business As Usual then, did we? All downhill. So long, and thanks for all the Siberian Oil. But Orange Man said we'll get a recovery, right? Business As Usual is just a pen stroke away, except meanie Democrats! Sweet Sauerkraut Sucking Baby Jesus! People still believe that horsecrap. Amazing. Don't be a moron all your life, get a rent free place to live. The last time we had 25% unemployment, it took drafting everyone into the Army, twelve years later, to finally recover.
*
Now, we have DOUBLE that, and no way of fighting a real war. And you think the economy is going to bounce back? You REALLY Honest Injun think you'll be employed, to pay that rent? Christ, at least compromise. Put $100 down and make payments, staying where you are ( and saving money, in case you must pay off the land and move there ). At least you are locking in the land. Because if things don't improve, there are NO jobs for you, anywhere. Why wouldn't you plan on moving out to your land? There are no jobs there, in that small town fifteen miles away, nor in the 60k population town you live in now. But the difference is you don't pay rent THERE.
*
I'm not telling you to burn your bridges. I'm telling you to buy unemployment insurance. Not the fake kind the broke thieving state stole from you, the REAL kind, where you can eliminate rent and auto costs and live on nearly no money. If you must. It might SEEM impulsive to dump all your savings into junk land and move. Or, is it the first smart thing you've done for some time? Only you can decide, but do you REALLY want all that storage food and ammo in a rented building? If no jobs are available? Are you following the Fracking Oil fields shutting down production? WHAT energy is going to be used to restart our wonderful economy?
*
No, Fracking Fanboy, we have NOT run out of oil. But we are pumping now, BEFORE the economy really collapses, 30% less ( that figure is a month or two old. I'd call it higher now ). That is 30% LESS economic activity, because oil IS economic activity. And a lot of those wells cost too much to reactivate. If production is trending down, why pay that cost? Unless it becomes an outright government grant. Which COULD happen. So could nationalization, but the government has the anti-Midas touch, doesn't it?
*
Trust me, someone who researched and bought a lot of land. Without worrying about a job nearby, you have a LOT more options of what land to buy. East Texas, anyone, with daily fishing and no winter? Granted, mosquito's and malaria, but if you can't handle the cold, there you go. A lot of the old oil patch there has no jobs, but because of that, lower land prices. And outside city limits, no zoning. So you can buy a junk RV and park it there and have a new home. I'd already be there, but millions of angry OtherColors nearby in Dallas, Fort Worth.
*
Nevada has a HUGE middle where no one lives and some counties only have three or five thousand people. And they ain't small counties. They just don't have any jobs. If I didn't have the NOL, I'd have already bought more land there and moved. Just note, be careful of the western part-very little rainfall, compared to the east part of the state. Most of their towns are one gas station, one restaurant stops for the sparse tourists driving through. But my point is, I had to forego all of those locations, because they had no jobs. Now it doesn't matter. Think hard, but act quick

free to move about the country


FREE TO MOVE ABOUT THE COUNTRY
Many moons ago, possibly in my last blog ( James M Dakin blogspot. Also available as a PDF, link at my web site. This blog has about the first two years in a PDF. I'm sure I'll be adding more eventually. If anyone prefers that, to cut down on Online Time, let me know and I'll accelerate that ) I did an article in which I joyfully reported that you were no longer tethered to Wal-Mart. My reasoning was that after becoming NOT the low price leader, why move to areas only having a Wal-Mart? You could buy expensive groceries anywhere.
*
When I was buying all of my junk land, one criteria besides Dirt Cheap was that a Wal-Mart needed to be close. I needed groceries to be as cheap as possible. I don't live poor because I like being a skinflint, I live poor because I have better things to do with my life than earn money. You know that “the worst day fishing is better than the best day working”? Yeah, my worst day writing and learning is the same way. I don't mind working. I mind working for idiots who profit off my labor through no effort of their own.
*
I'm not talking about business owners. Even the laziest ones still need to constantly worry about paying back their loans and never having any time off. Even standing behind a register, by the twelfth hour, becomes exhausting. I'm talking about half the workforce, the incompetent managers who don't deserve their salaries. The Diversity Hires. And, the legions of government parasites profiting off of them. Ever deal with health inspectors? They make licensing extra difficult, to make things so confusing you screw crap up ( hmm, imagine that, job security ), and only allow you to use “professional” equipment at ten times the price, to bankrupt you quicker. Parasites and stoolies.
*
Genteel Poverty is a strategy, not a consequence. My standard of living is higher than many Yuppie Scum. But I need the proper tools, and Wal-Mart was one of those. 25% cheaper groceries, added to my practice of mostly cooking from scratch, and my trip to the store on the bicycle, and I was In Like Flynn. I could live on almost nothing. But then, Wal-Mart panicked like a little girl in a room full of mice. They suddenly got their collective crap handed to them in 2008, after the bankers stopped lending money like it was water in a rainstorm. Wally's strategy of hyper-accelerated expansion was in jeopardy. And of course, customers no longer had a House ATM to use to spend so freely.
*
In their infinite wisdom, the illegitimate children from the short bus milk man father ( but, hung like a mule ) and given the Walton last name because Sam was embarrassed, they decided the cure for a shrinking middle class was to...change into a middle class store like Target. Sweet Swearing On A Swing Set Jesus, that was about as brilliant as opening ice cube stores in Nome. The higher prices scared away poor people, and the middle class couldn't buy in volume like the lower income folks used to. I really thought Wally was going to go out of business. So I suggested opening up your options by not worrying if your junk land was near a Wal-Mart.
*
Now, it's true that for a short time last year Wally went way under the competition in commodity prices, but that didn't last too long. But at least they have consistently competitive for the last few years. But that is all they are, competitive. Most of the time. Other times, the competition has sales UNDER the cost of Wally. So while Wally is no where near as bad as they used to be ( “I wanna be JUSSSST like Target. Ah, duh, which way did he go, George?” ), they are no longer The Low Price Leader. You can live with them or without them. I like to just cherry pick them for select cheapest items.
*
Now, we are in a similar situation. Most likely, if you aren't happy with your current bug in location, you are pondering buying junk land. Not only does it NOT matter if a Wal-Mart is nearby, I'm seriously thinking it couldn't possibly matter if there is a job nearby. That was another of my criteria. I was buying land starting in 2005, and I had to pay child support until 2012. Looking back it looks easy, but that financial burden enforced by the threat of jail weighed VERY heavy on my mind. I have steadily earned Amazon commission since the first blog in 2006, but it was never enough for the ex-wife AND groceries.
*
So, I didn't JUST start earning money writing and forever more discount the need for a real job. I only reluctantly quit my job in 2017. Between 2012 and 2015, the newest ex-wife made sure to punish me for moving off grid by having heart problems involving ambulance and ER visit expenses. Not much of a coincidence when her first attack was mere months after I finished paying child support. And at first, they found nothing ( although, we are talking about ER docs, whose only job is to stabilize, check off Lawyer Avoidance boxes, and ship you out after sodomizing your wallet ), so I'm still suspicious.
*
But I wasn't working two jobs to pay for the current wife, I was working to prep like the very Devil himself was on my heels. All that, obviously, has already paid for itself. But my point is, I do NOT discount your need for a job. I always was a bit resentful of authors telling me to move off grid, when I didn't have the writing income they did making that possible. Now I know, I had ZERO to be resentful about. A couple hundred bucks a month is a good income for writing, for all but the top tier. When I was living in Northern California, back when it was a real rural paradise, my buddy was a steady author of gold panning articles for specialized magazines. If I recall correctly, late 80's, he made about $60 an article ( before expenses, postage and photo's ).
*
( And to be clear, I count myself blessed with my minions, who are far more generous than average. I'm NOT crying Po Mouth. In fact, don't even think of donating unless you can live without it, you won't miss it, and you don't need it for preps ) I am also NOT telling you that you need to have a source of income to move off grid to junk land. I am saying, I have a strong sense of the Force that most of the jobs are gone and there might be nothing to “get”. Far better with no job on paid for land, than in town without a job, but also rent. Town living gives the illusion of a safety net, as in more panhandling and more potential jobs and more dumpsters to rummage in.
*
But, Jim! I NEED some money. No one can live on nothing. That is true. But if there are no jobs, it simply doesn't matter where you live. That is my main point. All the jobs are gone, but it doesn't seem like it because the stores, while closed, are not officially out of business. But that is only because they are not paying rent. The same with all these “furloughed” ( in reality, fired, but not officially so they can pretend ) employees not paying rent, the situation SEEMS like Business As Usual, without a huge surge in homelessness. How long can that last, because it seems to me like this could all fall off a cliff soonest, as the governors stick by their “bankrupt them all but the biggest corporations” orders.
*
I'm going to continue with that, tomorrow. But for now, a quick and messy guide to moving to junk land, super cheap ( for my new people, mainly ).
*
Stop, and forget every piece of advice you've heard on YouTube or read on conventional homesteading. Whatever you think you NEED, you no longer have the option of getting. So forget a babbling brook and woods and pasture and barns and energy efficient house and four wheel drive. The economy just took its biggest squishy, ever, even worse than the hyperinflated Continental period. You are about out of time. Buy whatever you can afford, without debt ( only buy on payments if you are assured on a job there nearby, and only take on payments you can eliminate quickly-I would say no more than a years worth ).
*
If it is desert junk land, tough titty. Obviously, this is for Po Folk. Those with assets can be more picky, and buy better crop production land, or take the time to find tax delinquent land, or whatever. The link for cheap land is below in the fine print, under “land under $1k”. Now, buy whatever level of camping gear you can afford, be it a junker RV or just a tent ( adobe is free, you just need roofing. But you need something immediately, also ). Now go camping. As simple as that. I would advise being within biking distance of a grocery store, in case you can't even make the car insurance payment.
*
A single $89 solar panel and $63 sealed 12v battery ( see below in “today's Amazon link” ) and LED bulbs and you have enough electricity for light. You WILL need adequate light. Trust me, it is depressing otherwise. Don't rely on candles exclusively. Even if all you have is a high lumen AA battery powered lantern, you need good light. Use a sawdust toilet ( a five gallon bucket will do-they sell the seat at Wally in the camping section ). Dig a hole with a glass lid for a solar composting toilet, for the sawdust ( dry use only, pee elsewhere. 10 to 1 water to urine is diluted enough to help plants grow. Do NOT dump in the same spot though, even diluted ).
*
Haul water from town. Wash your dishes in your cooking pot, and rinse with a squirt bottle ( a 20 ounce Coke bottle with a nail hole in the lid, and squeeze ) to conserve water. Whores Bath, with a small hand towel rather than a washcloth. Soak, wring, wet. Soap, wring and wash off. I've bathed with as low as a quart of water doing it this way. Alternate bathing and shaving every other day, or for gals, bathing and hair washing. Use a wet wipe for your ass. Use a Laundromat for your clothes. Use propane for cooking, and do NOT buy crap “Ozark Trails” Wal-Mart camping equipment. They USED to be good. Buy a cast iron propane camping stove burner from Sportsman's Guide-it is barely more expensive than Wally's cheap sheet metal unit.
*
Wear wool clothing to keep the heat down in the winter, and a wool blanket, cotton comforter and synthetic down comforter atop that ( with a squishy foam pad UNDER the mattress to reflect heat ) mean you need zero heat all night. You haul water, there are no pipes to freeze. Keep some water in pots, in case the water containers freeze. And that should about cover off grid camping/living. Easy peasy lemon squeesy.

tone deaf


TONE DEAF
Ah, Rawles, you silly sod. Now, I usually spare no sarcasm over Rawlsian Survivalism, which is basically Yuppie Scum Survivalism. Everything middle class, so as to suffer no inconvenience or suffer from the lack of any luxuries. These are the people that cannot bug out to New Zealand, but do insist on freeze dried caviar and $8k sniper rifles in fifty caliber. They spend so much on each piece of equipment that they cannot afford back-ups. But they Bought Once And Cried Once, by gum! But Rawles is not without his charm and his uses.
*
Before he jumped the shark on his blog and hired an editor to post other peoples writing ( so, pimping out his name for hookers and blow money ), he was an adequate daily read. Often enough, there was unique useful information. But now the desperate fame seekers aren't offering up many articles in hopes of carnival prizes, and there isn't much to pick from. Even months after Beer Virus. And his books? You could chart them and get a straight southern direction as far as usefulness. His first book was rightfully a survival classic. I put it in my Top 20 PA fiction list ( granted, near the bottom-but still an honor! )
*
His last novel was simply unreadable. Even with Kindle Unlimited. It was nothing more than a shopping list to build not a prepper compound but a prepper country. On a list of feasible events, monkey's would fly out of my ass before the events of this story transpired. Not that unbelievable stories aren't good stories. I used to enjoy D&D fantasy and Libertarian science fiction. I STILL enjoy talking ape detectives and sentient dolphins in The Probability Broach. And that after abandoning Libertarianism and most sci-fi except apocalyptic.
*
But the book was just a terrible novel. It was crap. Like someone else wrote the thing, or Rawles simply didn't care. He phoned it in, after snorting that blow and experiencing bouts of syphilis induced insanity from the hooker ( not that I'm knocking syphilis-I mean, Nietzsche was actually a god, despite his premature proclamation of his own passing. But, dag, that is one heck of a price to pay for mental enlightenment. Just ask Joe Biden. Insanity is a nice vacation destination, but nowhere you'd want to live ). But Jim, you sarcastic bunghole, you shouldn't make fun of those taking their religion seriously!
*
Shouldn't I? You know God has a sense of humor. Look how he made us. We are a hot mess, on a good day. Endless comic potential, times billions. But I'm not making fun of Rawles, or whatever God he chooses to sacrifice livestock to. I'm making fun of him as an author. He is a sad little man, trying to remake the magic of, say, Star Wars, by making each installment twice as bad as the one before. I bought his books! All but the last one. But even his last non-fiction book is so useless I haven't cracked it years after buying it ( after the initial two minute scan ). I was just running out of books to buy, back when all Bison Prepper fundraising went to research material. Before I hitched my paycheck wagon to writing.
*
Listen, if you want to let semi-auto guns have your babies, or believe fracking is forever and Peak Oil is just a fever dream I had on a bad batch of LSD ( yes, I had more than my share. Usually so diluted it was nothing more than a drug to stay awake and largely immune to the negative effects of alcohol. Hallucinations were rare, and clearly dream-like rather than perceived as real, posing no danger. But feel free to blame that on my delusions, if you must ), fine. Discount my theories. But surely, you admit you are entertained reading me?
*
Well, one imagines that general trend from a few years back of prepper sites dropping like turds weighted with lead, losing revenue as advertising dried up ( falsely blamed on the Trump Effect, in my opinion. Unless everyone is silly enough to believe The Stock Market IS The Economy ), that has negatively impacted Rawles and he is no longer being kept in the lifestyle he is accustomed to. He is trying to churn out another book. He claims the delay is in printing the book in Hong Kong and Dubai , although I'm wondering if he searched his “books too crappy to publish, even for me” file and dusted off the least smelly turd and is polishing it up as we speak.
*
And here's the thing, what got me riled up enough to write this article. It is a spiral binding. “To lay flat”. What, I'm welding a rocket here, and need a constant reference on dimensions? Who cannot find a printer that does spiral binding? They are in every town. Aren't printers open? Or are they are swamped with orders from the government for “Six Feet Apart” stickers? Why are you shipping books from an overseas printer? What message does this send? “Hi, I'm writing about the collapse of civilization, and to help that along I'm making sure local workers stay unemployed!”
*
The thing about spiral binding ( recall I did Xerox paper newsletters back in the 90's. Good enough for a reprint in Loompanics, thank you very much. I did a LOT of research on printing and alternatives. Granted, slightly dated with the advent of Print On Demand, but still some foundation ) is that mostly it is used because it is more economical for small batches. But it LOOKS like a garage start up book, NOT a professional New York City book.
*
So, not only are you saying, screw local workers, let them eat soy cake, if they can find soy, but you are also trying to pass off cheap printing as a desirable added bonus feature. If there are pictures galore for a coffee table book, for the YouTube crowd unable to read without moving their lips, that is going to look awfully ugly with spiral binding. But I'm sure it would be perfect for a bathroom book. Perhaps it has a section on alternate toilet paper.
*
Okay, sorry about that. The last series of articles fried my brain a bit, and I needed to recover and do a fluff piece, a rant. Not every day is guaranteed to be earth shattering, anyway. And it would have been much longer, as I was planning on hating on that bald prick over at “Shark Tank” ( a guilty pleasure, but not viewed in years after I was liberated from advertiser TV ), who insisted everything be manufactured in China, even when an inventor wanted Made In USA as part of their ad pitch. I think it is criminal making even books an imported item. Import the paper, Jesus Himself On A Trike. The machines do all the rest.
*
And most books I've read lately except for the top tier authors look like they were edited by a computer anyway ( and these were from the big book companies ). Why are you farming out the printing? But lucky for you, I won't go on about that. But I DID need to rant. And no publicity is bad publicity. If some of you STILL want to buy the book:
Rawles does request a “bookbomb day” where everyone buys it on the official release day, to boost sales ranking. That is all.

note: if you have Amazon Prime, here's a free movie.  "Red Days", the really low budget zombie movie, the one that has an appearance by Terrance Popp ( YouTuber, with his sarcastic "winning!" thumbs up ).  For what it was, a pretty darn good film.  It kept my interest, and the gaffs were minor.  The ending truly blew, and confused me, but that was my biggest complaint.  And more an observation than complaint.  The thing just had a subdued sarcasm and wicked sense of humor I love ( example: guy is bringing out zombie pieces to bury.  "Was she Protestant?  Because she's White Trash now" )
