This is what societal collapse looks like.

Livestreamed murder: Is this our future? A shocking incident took place in Venezuela recently, when an influencer who spoke out against the cartels was brutally murdered in the middle of his live stream while viewers watched on in horror. You may wonder why this is relevant to us. It's simple - thes…

Selco Explains How to be the Gray Man

And WHY it's more important than ever. This is one of my first interviews with Selco, and lately, I feel like this subject matter is more important than ever. I certainly don't want any of my new neighbors to know that I have preps to see us through difficult times. I live in the city, in an apartme…

Survival Sunday: June 29, 2025

Good morning, friends! I have to take a moment here to talk about my birthday girl. My first baby turned 30! Every year, I joke to her that I couldn't even keep a cactus alive before she was born, and look at her, growing like crazy with plenty of water and sunshine. But now I guess I have to give t…

Survival Sunday: June 22, 2025

Good morning!  I hope today finds you well. Last night, the US bombed three sites in Iran. I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop because I cannot imagine that there won't be retaliation. Of course, there's nothing that I, personally, can do about it, and neither can you. I'm turning my focus to pro…

Are you prepped for the next catastrophe?

Let's go back to basics. Who knows what is coming next - will it be WW3? A solar flare that takes down the power grid? Extreme civil unrest evolving from the protests? Acts of terrorism? Or maybe the price of everything just keeps creeping up? It gets overwhelming to try and predict exactly what's c…

What to Do When You Don’t Know What to Do

A List for Overwhelmed Preppers Let's be real. There are so many kinds of crazy coming at us right now that a lot of us don't know what to prep for first. Are we going to go to war?

An Archive of Nuclear Preparedness Resources

I’d rather be ready and not need it than need it and not be ready.  Whether it’s a dirty bomb or a missile strike, knowing what to do in the event of a nuclear attack is important. This isn’t an everyday emergency – hopefully, we’ll never need to use any of these resources. But if current events hav…

Pets When the SHTF: Benefit or Liability?

Your mileage may vary. For a lot of us, our pets are family members that we love and want to keep safe, regardless of what is happening in the world. Others aren't really animal lovers. Some see them as assets, like guard dogs or vermin chasers. Pets can also provide emotional support and stress rel…

How I’m Prepping for the Potential of War

Those drums are getting loud. I'm sure that I'm not the only person who has been following the situation in the Middle East with dread. Israel and Iran are going head to head, and allies are getting dragged in whether they like it or not. So far, the United States has remained staunch in the decisio…

7 Uses for a Smartphone Once the World Goes Dark

Who knew we could still use them? This is a really interesting article by Jose. I'd honestly never thought about using my phone after things go sideways. I figured it would be a costly brick, to be shuffled aside for "later" when things got back to "normal. But this article is so jam-packed with ide…

How to Prepare for Trouble Last night I got a text message from my daughter, who works in a very upscale restaurant in a downtown North Carolina city.

How to Make Jam WITHOUT Pectin

'Tis the season! It's jam season.
