Farming, Off-Grid Supply Chain Issues Inbound?
I never know what to make of these kinds of warnings. On the one hand, it feeds into my fear-based beliefs that the world is always teetering on the brink of utter collapse. (This is likely WHY I’m a prepper.) On the other hand, the world hasn’t collapse yet no matter what people say out…
The 5 Survival Items They Take First When SHTF
Believe it or not, firearms aren’t at the top of the list. In fact, I was surprised by his rankings and probably disagree on the top spot.

20 WW2 Survival Foods You’d Never Eat?
I just read through this article (it’s really a slideshow) of twenty WWII-era foods that civilians ate due to shortages and rationing.

The 5 myths include:
The Philly Trash Mess
On July 1, workers in the city of Philadelphia walked off the job for better pay and benefits, as occasionally happens with unions. This included “911 dispatchers, trash collectors, water department workers and many others.” That strike ended last week, but not before eight days of trash piled up in the streets. Just watch this…
The Tragic Texas July 4th Flash Flood
The Fourth of July should be a time of celebration and fun family gatherings. Sadly, natural disasters don’t take a pause for holidays. Instead, this year it became a nightmare for hundreds of families in Kerr County, Texas. As of this writing, more than 100 people tragically lost their lives in sudden flooding, including dozens…
