My uncle always said to keep a candle in your glove box because the heat from that alone can stop you from freezing to death. I do but I hope I never need to find out whether or not that’s just

When I was little, I asked my mom why every rich person doesn't have a fallout shelter...Prepping has always been a weird phenomenon to me. Outside of you waking up to a zombie apocalypse (lol) I don't see the point in having bug out bags ready to go and spending all this money prepping.
There isn't a single realistic catastrophic event that you wont see coming days... even weeks/months in advance.
shyt we just went through the worst pandemic in U.S. history, and it didn't require any of this shyt. If I traveled back to 2019 and said "next year a deadly global pandemic will run through the entire world, kill millions and everyone will be on lockdown" to some over the top prepper he would have spent his life savings on supplies and retreated to his basement because shyt is about to hit the fan. But in reality, its very hard(almost impossible) for our government and infrastructure to deteriorate to the point where prepping is viable or even necessary.
Things like hurricanes are possible exceptions but only effect certain areas, are detected days in advance and since Katrina mandatory evacuations are more and more common.
Since I'm a gun nut, I do think stock piling ammo/guns is smart simply because of shortages and gun law uncertainty. But shyt like MRE's and 100 gallons of water.....breh
She looked at me and said "Would you even want to live after some shyt like that happened and you and the other people with shelters were all that's left"
Never thought about that shyt again... I'm not trying to live in no shyt from The Road.. I'm good..
To disinfect the water correct? How often should one do that?
you'd put some in when you store the water just like they put those anti moisture packs in random things that you buy.
Interesting that they have pepper spray guns...it maybe good to have a less than lethal option:
[Amazon] Sabre Home Defense Pepper Spray Launcher - $318.00 (was $345.99) - PreppingDeals.net
[Amazon] Mace Brand Pepper Spray Gun - $29.64 (was $40.79) - PreppingDeals.net
not a fan anything shaped as a gun for home defense and imo risky even for street defense but yes better than nothing
I made a post about a picture with a copper head snake that was hard to see in the woods: Watch your step in the woods...(can you see the snake)?
Some of the brehs in the thread mentioned to wear boots. And come to think of it...I don't own a pair of boots. I have casual shoes, dress shoes and a couple of sneakers.
What kind of boots do you guys have?

Currently rotating my water supply for the first time. Using / drinking water that's been stored from 6 months to 5 years ago.

Space is the Place
A good food to keep on hand for a go bag or even sustained power outage type situation is granola bars. Oats and other additives like peanut or almond butter have tons of carbs and proteins and can set you up for a while. Honey is the main sweetner. A good basic recipe is here
You can substitute the honey for brown sugar or condensed milk or another sweetener but honey is good and the peanut butter/almond butter can be subbed for butter or coconut oil. I am pasting a basic recipe below. Since these have no preservatives, make a bunch (not expensive) and freeze and you can throw them in a go bag in a jiffy or eat them slowly during a disaster or power outage.
Original recipe yields 8 servings
EDIT: refrigerate after this overnight and then cut them up. They will stay solid!
