One of the larger problems with "prepping" is that a lot of preppers make it their personality. Doom and gloom is reflected everywhere in their lives after a while. Their ego gets intertwined with their decision to prepare for the worst. Soon they only see the bad, they only talk about the bad. They find themselves creating the reality they feared in the first place. They become accelerationists of a sort. Intolerable to those that loved them. I have seen it happen first hand, more than once.
Be prepared, sure. Just don't be obsessed. So far SHTF predictions are batting .000
Conspiracies coming true in real time... better a year early then a day late. All my preps are things I'd use anyways. Go shopping from your pantry not the store. Go to the store to replenish the pantry.
been prepping for 10 years for it. got a lot of my shit in my house with me in water and fireproof safes. I have backed up documents also if shit goes offline. STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY WHISKEY, BEANS AND WATER!! Dx
