My freinds are you preppers? I've been an active pepper since I first saw the writing on the wall over twenty years ago. I engaged with a militia group for a season to learn what the sovereign citizen can do to be ready for the ultimate decline of social and economic conditions. I consumed volumes of literature within the genre of a post apocalyptic dystopian world and ways to survive the chaos. All fiction and imagination. Somehow I distilled some basic lessons about preparation for the unthinkable. The categories all started with "B"s The six B's to be precise. BEANS representing all sorts of shelf stable foods and water purification and storage. BULLETS. Firearms, ammo, and replacement parts, batteries for optics. BANDAIDS all first aid supplies, medications of as many types as possible as well as trauma kits and IV supplies. BULLION gold, silver, booze, cigarettes, dry goods, candy, diapers, female hygiene products all for barter. BIBLE Ever necessary spiritual food to keep sane and enrich ones local clan and community while under stress. THEN THERE CAME BITCOIN. Stack to the best of your ability. Stay humble.

What do you think? What's missing for the end of the world as we know it? Maybe a lifetime supply of Jolly Ranchers?

Interesting, I've never heard it put like that, but its catchy. (5 or 6 B's).

One of the things I don't think is talked about enough in the Nomad/Sovereign/Prepper communities is - Safe People make Safe Places.

It's rare to find the person or family that is truly an island onto themselves.

We've been exploring this in a series of essays: https://paperstreetstudios.substack.com/p/the-remnant-builds-again

As well as in our fictional audio drama - Mysteries of the Bitcoin Citadel

I Agree with the principle that "safe people make safe places”. A number of pepper authors emphasize the importance of community. I didn't mention that but took steps in my life to do a tactical relocation to move into low population density rural America where community still matters and where neighbors still take care of neighbors. Thanks for the reply. I'm but a pleb with a lone voice in the wilderness. I have no followers to speak of - hence little influence. Glad to learn one other person saw something worth pausing and making comment about my thoughts. I'll check out those links you dropped. They sound interesting to me.
