Having been in a survival situation, I can tell you that none of than happened. Mostly just selfishness and nightly gun fire. Better advice: Canned food, bottled water, battery powered lanterns, radio and good book. if you can afford it, some way to solar charge the lantern and radio and cellphone. Generators are really noisy and attract attention. I didn’t have power for 2 weeks and the roads were blocked with fallen trees.
Slightly unrelated but a good place to plug my recent hobby. Meshtastic. set up a node and coordinate with friends to connect the whole area.
Not only it is a secure clandestine chat network. it will work when the networks are down, allowing you to coordinate with everyone. Give them a battery/solar and they will work no matter what, electric grid down, you can still coordinate.
I am currently working with local action groups to get the whole city connected
That looks pretty cool. I’m going to look into it.
Maybe I am overoptimistic, but I would love if hobbyist and action groups manage to get the whole nation connected. then you would not need a data plan or a carrier to be able to communicate.
That was my thought as well, and it seems like the parts are relatively inexpensive.
NOAA’s climate model predicts a blue ocean event in 2026
Beans time then
or anything drought resistant.
I don’t know what that means but I’m guessing from context that it’s bad
It means there will be pretty much no sea ice on the Arctic ocean this summer, lowering Earth’s albedo and absorbing even more heat instead of radiating it away. It’s yet another climate tipping point we’ll be passing this decade.
James Hansen is saying we hit +1.7C in 2027.
Paul Beckwith is saying +2.0C by 2030-32.
Hey, I’ve had that on my bingo card for 2026 since 2019!
You take that back about beans!
I agree. A can of baked beans, at room temperature, is great comfort food during times of stress.
I was literally doing that last night when I posted, right out the can lol
Try the Yellowstone brand, they are really great. Walmart carries them around here. Best can bean I ever had. https://www.eatyellowstone.com/products/baked-beans/baked-beans-with-bacon/
You can do all of these things 🤷
So, “doomsday” is basically growing poor in Latin America?
I’m half-joking. Serious now: look at how poor people in your area survive, and learn with them.
No beans

Apparently I don’t even know the comm’s actual name
Now we’re gatekeeping doomsday prep? Jfc
No, we’re making fun of right-wing dickwads. And talking about what really matters.
They don’t even hoard beans they bank on stealing them with their guns from people who are actually prepared
Nah, my dad has a bunch of cans in his basement. It’s legit.
best kind of doomsday planning you can do is find out what kind of edible fruit tree grows natively in your area, finding out which of those you like, and planting them in your yard (if you’re lucky enough to have one)
