More Boots…

Posted on 10/10/2019 by leftwingsurvivalist

Well, re-boots.  We’ll continue the thread of the last post in a second, but first… Well, yep, it’s a full-blown Constitutional Crisis, at this point, much more than it has been at any other point. The White House is now … Continue reading →

Bit of a Reboot

Posted on 09/26/2019 by leftwingsurvivalist

I know it’s like watching a slow-motion train wreck, but I figured I’d try once again to turn my eyes from the events on the world stage, and focus some more on actual prepping… In that vein, let’s go back … Continue reading →

Almost the New Year

Posted on 12/20/2018 by leftwingsurvivalist

In fact, my next post will be next year. We’ll have a Democratic House of Representatives, with supoena power and everything, which will be–well, if not “nice,” at least a positive change. Hopefully we can do something about the daily … Continue reading →

Nexus Week

Posted on 09/27/2018 by leftwingsurvivalist

There you have it, folks. The President–and therefore, by extension, the country–is now officially a laughingstock across the rest of the world. That’s not just hyperbole, either. The heads of fully 133 nations of the world (out of the ~195 … Continue reading →

This time around, I’ll (finally!) get to a list that I found a while back, wandering about the Pinterest intertubes. It claims to be from a website called betterhomestead.com, but I haven’t verified that. Its contents are a “Master List … Continue reading →

Into Every Life…

Posted on 08/31/2017 by leftwingsurvivalist

My plan for this week was to go through a list found in my extensive browsing of the internet.  The list topic? “Master List of Items to Stockpile for the Apocalypse.” I’ll get to the list (maybe next time), but … Continue reading →

Don’t Forget, Part 2

Posted on 07/06/2017 by leftwingsurvivalist

Moving back this week to the “50 survival items you forgot to buy” list: 16. Condiments.  Ketchup, mustard, mayo, soy sauce, hot sauce. Good for shorter-term emergencies (I’d see about getting restaurant packets), but for longer term, or TEOTWAWKI, I’d … Continue reading →

Getting Home, Part the Last

Posted on 03/16/2017 by leftwingsurvivalist

This week, we take a peek into my GHB and my car kits.  I’ve covered the GHB before, but there have been a couple of fairly minor tweaks since then; I don’t think I’ve gone over the car kit much … Continue reading →

Getting Home – The Emergency Car Kit

Posted on 03/02/2017 by leftwingsurvivalist

As I mentioned last time, this week we’re looking at car kits, but I diverge a little from the Family Survival Planning guide here. They start out well enough, giving their reasoning for having kits in your car, being basically … Continue reading →

Finishing Up the BoB

Posted on 02/16/2017 by leftwingsurvivalist

As promised, this week we’ll finish out our look at the Family Survival Planning 72-hour kit/Bug-Out-Bag.  This time through, I’ll be going over a few things I feel they missed, and briefly describing our “food kits.”  I do very much … Continue reading →
