AI Apocalypse & Expert Warnings: Prepping for AI Risks
Will AI kill us all, just like in the Terminator? Could Skynet be a reality? The questions are a bit dramatic in nature, but not really. I think that all of us have watched the Terminator movies multiple times and have commented or thought “That would be %^@& up.” But the truth is, I believe it’s a […]
Prepping, Moving, and Lots of Stuff. Protecting Your OPSEC
Well, after many years in the 1 — 1/2 bedroom apartment in Northern NJ, Ms. Prepper and I recently moved in together, and into a new home. Anyone that has accumulated any amount of stuff, knows that the mere act of packing your stuff and moving it can be a daunting task. In this prepper’s case, […]
No More Apartment Prepping… Any advice?
Well, it seems I usually start out a post with, “It’s been a while, but…” In this case, I can say that it’s been just about two months; it’s been stressful, rewarding, expensive, and much more. Anyway, as the title says, I’m out of the apartment into a house. There is a LOT more space. […]
Pets and Prepping, My Thoughts On the Subject
Pets are a staple all around the world. They’re part of the family. They’re used for hunting, security, service for handicapped & our military, in law enforcement. As you can see I am leaning towards discussing “man’s best friend.” They are prevalent from the time we wake to the time we go to sleep at […]
Summer’s Here, Work, Future Plans, and Prepping
Well, summer is officially upon us. When it came it came with heat and humidity. With that there are supposed to be severe thunder storms all week here in NJ. I’m getting used to the rain, and am going to start calling New Jersey, “New Seattle” shortly. Heck, I’ve only been camping twice all season, […]
Prepping, a New Girlfriend, and Her Dog…
Well, We’re all preparing here for whatever it is we are preparing for. Hurricane, economic collapse, earthquake, civil unrest, whatever it is. As a single person, prepping has been a pretty simple concept to undertake. Know what my needs are and act on them. Simple. I want a months worth of food, I buy it. […]
My Food Storage is Changing, an update on Apartment Prepping…
As my time prepping matures, and living in an apartment, I am also finding that my prepping is starting to morph a bit. As I prep for food, most specifically, I find that cans of food are becoming cumbersome. Specifically, soups, tunas, canned chicken (which is a personal favorite of mine), etc. I also find […]
Prepping on Twenty Five Dollars a Week, Increasing Your Budget Slightly, Increases Preps Exponentially
I am going to try to be realistic here. There are posts all over the Web on preppers sites about starting your prepping for $5.00 a week. But what does $5.00 really buy these days. In my case $5.00 can buy: – 3 – 4 cans of soup, – 3 – 4 cans of tuna, […]
Pet Prepping
Awhile ago, I blogged that I was really having a difficult time prepping for my pets (one dog and two cats). This can be a major issue, especially if you have to go and quickly. This has made me think heavily about how I would ensure the survival of my pets in a SHTF event. […]
Prepping For Your Car
Let’s see… We buy food. We buy gear. We buy guns. We buy ammunition. We grow gardens. We can food. We talk about Bug Out Locations. We talk about Bugging In. We talk about a lot of things, but as I was driving home from work this evening, I had a couple of thoughts. The […]
