Grzecznie przypominam, że jeśli Twoje ogrzewanie zależy od gazu, którego dostawy mogą być wkrótce utrudnione warto przynajmniej zapoznać się z projektami CZADNICY - beczki która produkuje gaz drzewny z drewna. Jest to odnawialne źródło energii w sam raz na nadchodzący #wszechkryzys . Można tym przerobić zarówno samochód jak i domowy piec. Ale nie polecam zasilać kuchenki gazowej ani niczego z czego ten czad może się ulotnić.

If you dont have several charged and programmed HT radios in your 0day kit, you're going to have to rely on someone that does.

If you don't have enough (or big enough) #disasters in your life, you could always read a story about the big one! #teotwawki - the #shtf - the #apocalypse ... I'm sure you get my point!
First two #books in my #postapocalyptic "Island Survival" series are novellas, and they're only 99 cents (and available in #KindleUnlimited), so the time and monetary investment is low. Naturally, I'm hoping you get hooked like other readers have. 😁

#apiaceae family is insane 😄
I initially started loving it because of how widely confusing it is. All those #plants look very much the same! In 2021 a paper appeared that investigated the genetics and it turned out it's even better - it was all wrong! The paper rearranged the genera, combined some xD it's a clusterfuck and I love it even more.

The large scale #blackout in #Spain and #Portugal caught my attention for multiple reasons.
First, it's an example of the kind of disruption that is much less personally disruptive if you've prepared adequately for emergencies.
Also, it reminded me of the backstory of my #postapocalyptic Island Survival series. Let's keep that scenario in fiction, people!

Tip to save your life.
If you ever need to call for help in an emergency (police/fire/rescue/etc) you need to give your location. What if you are not at a street address or you do not know the address?
GPS chips in phones all basically work the same way. They produce (1) your latitude longitude coordinates in decimal degrees and (2) an accuracy value in meters.
Caution! When you first turn location services ‘on’ the accuracy value could easily be over 5,000 meters.
Caution! Some software (looking at you Google maps) only displays coordinates and does not display the equally important accuracy value.
https://findmesar.com is an open source #ProgressiveWebApp (PWA) I developed that displays your coordinates and accuracy value in several formats. It can be installed on Android and iOS for offline use. **Not available in any app store, not on GitHub and 100% enshitification free.**
To give it a try, open FindMeSAR, scroll down and tap ‘No’ and then give permission to use your location. Now tap ‘Next format’ to scroll through the various formats.
For instructions on how to install it for offline use, tap ‘Tips’.
Other buttons let you copy the data to the clipboard and, if your device is online, open the GISsurfer web map with a marker at your location. I am the GISsurfer dev and you can read more about it at https://gissurfer.com.

My wife who was normally at best tolerant of my tinkering with radios asked me about #meshtastic yesterday. Apparently she's becoming more interested in #shtf options for communications, and we spent some time talking about the radios I have and how they could be used in emergencies. I'm pondering writing up an overview/beginner guide to types of radio and how they can be used. Does anyone have a reference they like? Would people be interested?

Dean Blundell arguably overstates his case by quite a bit here, but it's still worth reading his thoughts on new Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's remarks today on the Canada - USA relationship.
https://deanblundell.substack.com/p/breaking-canada-officially-cuts-ties
Is this, as he says, basically a burn-it-all-to-the-ground-and-go-it-without-them moment? Not exactly. It's a lot more subtle, but still momentous.
Today will be remembered in the future as the day things changed between the #USA and the world. For generations, countries around the world have complained of American hegemony, but largely haven't done anything about it. The "old world" has remained in orbit around the USA.
Today, #Canada said "Enough of this shit."
Someone had to start the ball rolling on creating the new world order now that the USA is not only an "unreliable partner" as some have stated, but is instead descending into chaotic autocracy. I'm proud that it was Canada that took this first step.
Make no mistake, this is a first step. I believe the rest of the #dominoes will fall very quickly now that the psychological barrier has been broken.
Historians may see this as the beginning of the end of #American dominance in economics, politics, defence... everything. The end of the US dollar as the de-facto world reserve currency.
If that happens, and China stops buying US T-Bills, it becomes a true #SHTF moment for the USA.
If you're holding US dollars in your retirement savings, today might be a good day to start looking elsewhere.

When #SHTF, I'm sure you will need #community, #solidarity and stable #relationships at a local level a little more than you'll need a 2y supply of freeze-dried meals.
Though it can't hurt to download #books and #information now that you once believed would be treasured as heritage of humankind – and never be burned, or rewritten to suit the needs of fanatics with fragile egos.
Start here:
-
Today and tomorrow, the first two #books in my #postapocalyptic "Island Survival" series are free #Kindle downloads. If you haven't read the series yet, you can start via the link below!

If you run to the store in a panic over a basic supply chain disruption like a port strike, you learned absolutely nothing from the COVID-19 crisis,
I write about worst-case disasters based on real things (even my upcoming "zombie" book is based on science) because I want people to take seriously the need to prepare for the worst. A few days of supply disruption is far from the worst.
Self-sufficiency matters!

I know I am new to the party. Really great resource for #gobag #bugoutbag #shtf #earthquake #survival instructions and guides. The focus on prioritized systems vs time systems is super helpful for a beginner. https://theprepared.com/bug-out-bags/guides/bug-out-bag-list/
Does anyone have a premade level3 #ifak they like? Having a hard time knowing who is a reputable dealer. Seeing lots of kits knock off CAT7s out there.

If you have a close-diameter bright #flashlight (#torch for the UK folk) that you wish was red, you can use a red "#beersaver" silicone lid to cover the end, and boom! Lower light and it's #red now.

A cool thing about the crank-power #TecsunGR98 #ShortwaveRadios that I haven’t seen before: they come w/ USB adaptors for the various devices you may have to charge w/ radio’s crank-dynamo in the case of a #SHTF emergency. It comes with a USB A to USB Micro cord + USB C & USB Lightning adaptor fittings. The #radio itself can also be powered with a DC IN 5V input w/ same USB cord. #Tecsun #ShortwaveListening #KE0FFTswl #ShortwaveRadio #EmergencyRadio

A short primer on Off Grid food storage for short and long term: as always, do further reading on these methods.
Shelf stable pre-packaged-
You can buy 1000s of different shelf stable kinds of food, canned, pre-cooked, dried, etc. but for the long term, this is not ideal or even possible. In a SHTF situation, those kinds of food will become unavailable and not be replaced. They are only good for a short term period such as a weather disaster in an otherwise stable country or area.Shelf stable raw-
The best shelf stable raw food that can be stored properly for many years includes whole grains in their original form such as wheat berries, oat groats, dried beans, white rice, etc. preferably that you can source in your local area so they are as fresh as possible from the start. These foods need further processing and cooking, but are shelf stable in cool, dry, dark conditions. Acquiring air tight (preferably glass) containers while they are available should be done continually.Root cellar-
Root cellaring fresh garden vegetables is a very good 6 months to one year storage method for food such as carrots, potatoes, beets, turnips, parsnips, cabbage, onions, winter squash, apples etc. A well ventilated, organized root cellar can hold a lot of food and keep it edible for a very long time.Dehydrate-
The easiest method of preserving food while you still have electricity, or live in hot dry climates is dehydration. Almost any fruit or vegetable and many plants can be successfully dehydrated to keep well for several years if stored air tight, cool and dark. Dehydration is essential for raisins, figs, prunes, pasta, etc. Meat and fish can also be dehydrated to jerky.Freeze Dried-
The most expensive piece of equipment you might want to get. Food quality and nutrition is excellent for long term storage. Takes lots of electricity, time and maintenance. Not practical in extreme situations for ongoing food storage. Only good to use this method before the SHTF.Pressure canning and cooking-
The essential way of preserving meat, fish, and cooked vegetables plus other foods such as soups, stews, cooked beans, is by pressure canning. It is the only safe way to can and store these foods in the cooked state. A pressure canner can be used on electricity, gas, and in extreme circumstances, probably wood fires although I haven't tried this. Pressure cooking is a very fast way to cook food that normally takes a long time and a lot of energy to cook.Fermenting, smoking, salting and pickling-
The oldest method of preserving food is by fermentation or pickling and salting then smoking of meats. Vegetables, dairy, and some fruits can be fermented or pickled then kept at cool room or root cellar temperatures for extended periods. Meat, fish and cheese can be smoked. These methods use a lot of salt or vinegar which could be tricky to attain depending on where you live. The best way is to stock up on a large quantity of salt while it is easily available. Practice making your own vinegar and save the vinegar mothers to reuse. Cultures such as yogourt, cheese and sour dough can be used continually with proper considerations. Now is the time to learn how to use these food products.#Prepping #FoodPreservation #FoodSecurity #SHTF #OffGrid #Homesteading #GetPrepared

IS everyone in the western world, in their totally pampered life style just going to fall over and die when the shit hits the fan? Can't do this! Can't do that! It's not safe! That's yucky! My hands will get dirty! I don't like the smell! I could never do that!
I swear to god half the people i know WOULD fucking die if they had to live the way i live by choice. I kinda feel bad for them. Sort of. #offgridliving #SHTF #BackToTheLand
