  1. It dawned on me while building a #gobag that hot sauce is missing from pretty much every “how to build a go-bag” list.

    Huge oversight.

    Imagine your house just burned down in a wildfire. You’re stuck out in the woods. All you’ve got to eat is squirrel.

    That sriracha is gonna make a fucking difference, eh?

    Now, if you’re not like me and don’t want to carry a big-ass bottle of sriracha around during the apocalypse, Tabasco actually makes a decent habanero sauce. And thanks to the heroic amount of vinegar in that shit, I’m pretty sure it’ll survive longer than most governments.

    Also, think about the barter economy.

    #Endoftheworld. Money is worthless. Society has collapsed.

    But you’ve got hot sauce.

    A couple squirts could probably get you a foot massage. Maybe batteries. Maybe someone watches your stuff while you take a shit.

    Think about it.

    Put hot sauce in your go-bag.

  6. I have had a #GoBag packed and ready for at least 13 years.

    I know this because today when I checked it I found a pouch of trail mix with a best-by date in 2013. 😳

  16. Checked my #GoBag to see what food I had in it.

    I totally forgot I had #freezedried #banana #IceCream in there along with some flameless heater bags for the retort meals - #ButterChickenWithRice & #PorkSausages.

    I am sooo tempted to eat the freeze dried ice cream!

    #BushFires #Victoria - listening to #ABCradioMelbourne. For us? So far, so good.

  17. Last year my new year's resolution was to de-google my life and software. I did so completely and swiftly. Same with billionaire owned and curated junk media and websites. Walled garden websites are not worth my time. If EFF's Privacy Badger shows a tracker, I know they may be compromised. I remember well how to thrive before google and now greatly enjoying those pleasures again. Paper maps can be printed from open sources.

    For this new year, I'll be working on my #GoBag and increasing my #OffGrid #solar capabilities. Opportunities in the USA are becoming very limited, so I will take them while still available.

  34. The posts going around with various "go bag" ideas have the right idea but I'd throw in this - when buying batteries to go with your torch (flashlight) get ones with a long shelf life. Lithium chemistry AAs can have a 20 year shelf life, and CR123s (different chemistry according to the internet) can go 10.

    (on flashlights I'd recommend having at least a pair, one that takes a generally easy to come by cell size like AA, and a good high capacity rechargeable. I am very normal about flashlights)
