@Mugnika - I mean, I *would*...
But what would I be saving? How would it ever be worth the risk? Though I might smile upon a "mini-thing".
And one might ask: what if the founders said that? 🤔 But within the wider British empire, a mini-thing is exactly what the founders pulled off. And those odds were long enough for them. 💁🏻♂️
@basedbagel @Pain66 - As for males? Well, of course they're fucked. But that's just competition anyway, so fuck'em.
We tried to tell them to prepare, to recognize the nature of their existence, and 87% of them* actively chose to ignore all that. So they get what they get.
If men who are prepared, with a disposition for cooperation, can find one another in the wasteland... those men are worth their weight in gold.
It's Darwinian time!
*citation: percentage number pulled outta my ass
@basedbagel @Pain66 - It kind of is though...
In the weeks after SHTF, medications will be gone - and all the STDs are gonna manifest. Females over 40, are just a write-off. They're done.
But even perky titted 25yos are gonna be passed over when their lesioned, green pus-filled pussies show up.
Sadly, the young females (pre-teens and below) will probably fare "best". I remember after the Haiti earthquake, people were finding 2yo girls with gonorrhea in their mouth.
@urusan - I mean, I do consume a ton of sugar. I manage to keep the weight off by burning it, but I'd probably be healthier with less of it.
We all have our vices. 😏💁🏻♂️
@mutageno - Yeesh!! 😳🙄😮💨
@dander - Oh snap! 😳
I've been prepping for a decade... I've been called alarmist, and I've doubted myself at times. But the big show really is right around the corner, isn't it?
What's that line in "BraveHeart"? "Well, we didn't get all dressed up for nuthin'..." 😅🍻
@RodrickSage - I believe that the sooner you see, and accept, her imperfection... the sooner you will feel better.
This is easier said than done, I know. If you're looking for chemical assistance, I can't recommend Lion's Mane mushroom supplements enough. They're OTC, and the effect is subtle, but real. It allows your mind the flexibility to relax your focus on your heartbreak.
Good Luck man. 🍻
P.S. - I didn't see all the other replies at first. 😅 Hopefully, one will resonate.
@RodrickSage - I've been a monk (volcel) for many years. And I know that feeling well. They call it one-itis (as in: "she's the one").
And I've blamed God, too. But in time I realized that we all have free will. And it's not God's failure. It's her's, and her's alone.
I believe that you are grieving - not for the loss of her, but for the loss of what could have been. Your vision was beautiful, and she couldn't see it - or she simply short-sightedly rejected it.
@mutageno - Notice the wording... 🤔 They don't say it was the turbulence that killed her, necessarily - just that she was killed as turbulence was taking place. 🤔
Somewhere, there's an assassin who specializes in turbulence work. Business has been pretty slow for some time, but it's nice to see Jimmy "Cabin Pressure" finally getting some work. 😄
@mutageno - Funny, I never thought to connect those.
Back when I started prepping, a man had time to thoroughly analyze every incident, from every angle, to death. You could leisurely update your yarn-o-map and speculate on all the implications & hypotheticals.
And now? you can barely register one disaster before a new one hits. 🙄
I tell ya, a man can't even prep in peace anymore.
@dander @VooDooMedic @37712 @Tfmonkey @sardonicsmile - 🤣🤣
A Happy Trans Day to all! 🎉🍻🥳
@Chimi_Chuang_Tzu - Simpery knows no bounds. 💁🏻♂️
@sardonicsmile @mutageno - Who's the broad? 🤔
If it seems like I've been living under a rock... Well, I've been working to become Amish minus all the church, so kinda yeah. 😅
@dander @VooDooMedic @Tfmonkey - is absolutely not an option. They get stuck often enough to be very annoying as a trucker (at about $800/tow)... but in adverse road conditions? - not happening. And there's no getting behind it and pushing.
Sorry. I don't mean to rain on a parade... But for the money, I think it's wiser to get a small fleet of used pickups. That way, all eggs aren't in one basket. And they'd be much more maneuverable. I like Ford Rangers for that.. They're common & cheap. 🍻
@dander @VooDooMedic @Tfmonkey - Like many, I drive these things on the regular.
In an SHTF scenario, they have their uses... but I probably wouldn't invest in one. They require good roads and support infrastructure. The most frustrating thing about driving one pre-SHTF, is finding suitable parking. And there are many restrictions on where they can travel (look for "no truck" signs in your town - they're everywhere.
Post-SHTF, forget about it. Off-roading, even to simply bypass a roadblock, ➡️
@FinalDresdonation - I've spent years planning a post-collapse village (it'd be pretty badass if TFM ever wandered in 😂).
The first building to go up, is a tavern/inn. Drinks and short order menu on the first floor, and rooms on the second floor.
Everyone knows that in any proper Isekai, the tavern is the place to be. 🍻
@rohrkrepierer - Whaaa-? I'm shocked! 😳 ...just shocked. 😆
@rohrkrepierer - "...bathed in bloodshed for centuries..."?
That sounds pretty badass, actually. I'll take it as a compliment. 🤔 🍻
@FinalDresdonation @Tfmonkey - 2¢:
Chaos will rule. Against that backdrop, I plan to control myself for the betterment, and work outward from there, for as far as I can reach.
Good Luck. 🍻
