Homesteading and prepping

With the way everything's going this is looking inevitable. What are you doing to prepare? Have you started a self reliant homestead?

Oh sweet another manipulative daydream larp thread.

>>2801685
How many times are you going to post this?

>>2801684 (OP)
There's already multiple threads up on these subjects spiderexpert. Quit shitting up the board.

>With the way everything's going this is looking inevitable.
Is it? Really?

Internationally there's no one that can seriously challenge our military and domestically, while there are some very serious economic and demographic challenges ahead, I don't think any sort of social collapse is at all likely. Social upheaval and some degree of unrest maybe but I'm not about to uproot my life in preparation for it.

That said, I'm a 'prepper'. I've got several months of food as well as everything else necessary to see myself and my family through any realistic crisis. If society really shits the bed then I'll be counting on the fact that I'm an ex-mil doctor and my wife's a veterinarian to find us a cushy position with whatever warband seems most likely to enact the day of the rope.

>>2801725
Yeah nah fuck off. There are a bunch of ski threads too and no one complains about those.

>>2801684 (OP)
Gonna buy land, gonna offer the land to sharecroppers, gonna build a tomb, and I will die

>>2801788
lolwut

>>2801684 (OP)
Nah. I have land, the know how to grow potatoes and lentils, I'd hunt deer or something for protein, but those will obviously be exterminated within the first week or so -- since everyone will have the exact same idea.
I look forward to being murdered in the middle of the night by groups of hungry people raiding rural houses in order to procure canned food and whatever other supplies they can find.

once it was hippies who dreamt of homesteading, now its rightoid chuds.
other than that its still the same, they have no clue, start buying up way to small plots of land, act all bizarre and eventually fail completely, but not before they ruined the house and land and have been a general nuisanse to the community for years.
they should remain in their urban containment zones and leave rural life to us who are born here.

>>2801684 (OP)
i wish to inherit my grandfathers land but idk if theyre going to sell it. also all my uncles are in the way too so im kinda fucked

>>2804783
My boomer parents had a secondary parcel in the middle of nowhere and they sold it so that they could keep going on cruises.

>>2804780
You can't even speak English, you illiterate savage

Leaving it to you is the same as leaving it to the squirrels and birds, you dumb animal

>>2804783
In central rural mexico and im sure everywhere else in mexico, it was taboo to sell your land outside of the family before my fathers generation. He said he grew up believing that it was dishonorable to sell it for yourself because you'd be taking food out of generations worth of descendant's mouths. It would be especially taboo to sell to people from the city.
Sadly those norms have died with my grandparents generation and everyone sells their inherited land to go do stupid shit with it. Cartel members tend to buy up all the land and do weird shit with it like build compounds or outposts.
It's very sad to see that be the case in the USA as well. I'm sure all that land is swept up by megacorps; which is the US equivalent of cartels the way I've understood it.

All I've got is 8000sqft of dry desert.
It's over, it's not possible.

Bought a couple of propane space heaters+extra gas, also a storm kitchen +extra fuel and a small esbit heater + extra tabs

I've also bought a few bottles each of whisky, rum, vodka, jäger and gin. this emergency booze-chest is for either drinking the pain away as my inevitable slow death nears because of circumstances or for bartering valuable goods in the post-apocalyptic world

on a somewhat darker note I've also set up a field bed and a led light on a makeshift nightstand with some books in it in my cellar(which is also my buildings bomb shelter) in case shit gets so spicy I might want to sleep down there during the night

>>2801749
I don't wanna make this into a politics thread, but the world is becoming more multipolar which means more friction and conflict globally. Add onto that a Euro-American split, I think it's far from inevitable (or even likely) that there will be nuclear war but it's definitely closer than it's ever been

>>2807453
>>we're playing 4d chess amirite bros
nothing ever happens.

>>2807506
ayo who tf is you quoting bruh

Hey I've got one of the flame king refillable propane tanks.

Had it in a buddy heater and it made some bizarre gurgling noise then flames out. I assumed the noise was from being low on fuel but when I took it off it felt like it was 3/4 full of water and you could hear it sloshing around.

Any ideas? It sounds damn near full and is pretty heavy.

I've had trouble filling these s I'm not sure theyre safe. I refill it using the 15lb tank on my grill and I either get 20 minutes run time when it's supposed to be "full" but now it's burning the correct time but it seems full of water now?

No clue with these honestly it seems unsafe.

I'm not homesteading, but I do have 4 acres upon which I keep bees, chickens and soon goats. It's comfy.

Ay mang thanks for bumpin my Shitpost

I’ve got enough guns and ammo to become the rapiest raper that ever raped bitches at gunpoint. Which is what I will do until I inevitably get shot.

But oh what a lovely tea party it will be.

>>2811443
Add 2% crushed lump charcoal to their feed and their manure won't smell as bad. It's easy to incorporate and healthier for the animals if you also ferment their feed for a couple days

>>2801685

>>2801684 (OP)
I've always kept a bunch of shelf stable food, water and TP on hand. When C19 hit it didn't affect me as much as many other people. Unfortunately IDK how similar things are going to play out in the future because my small town has been eaten by a big city so I'm now surrounded by urban rentoids. When bird flu becomes the next big thing and the shelves are bare I'm a little worried that I'll be fighting off people trying to take my beans.

>>2801684 (OP)
I’m just going to rape and pillage till I get got.

I think with the advent of the Palantis system, the modern world will become excedingly oppresive. Even if the world doesnt end, youre going to want to be as sepf reliant as possible to avoid the new yiddish AI overlords. That and not having to buy meat grown in a lab, youll wish you had prepped more.

you have no right owning land unless its yours by ancestral right
cityfags need to go back and stay in their designated containment zone

>>2801749
>Is it? Really?
Yes, but not because of some violent takeover. You have corpos like Bayer (which acquired Monsanto) which seek to make any seeds you buy nonviable, as in the plants will grow fruit, but won't reproduce. There are a few different examples of corpos pushing the monopolization of our food, and history can speak on the willingness of the ruling class to engineer food scarcity. It won't be like the Soviet union here in the states, where all food is stolen from the farmers (at least I don't think), however food will keep increasing in price to the point where buying groceries will become a significant strain on your budget, and buying meats may become untenable for the majority. Then you will also have engineered scarcity with manufactured crises which call for culling tons of livestock and the destruction of crops. The only way to combat this will be good production yourself, which won't be illegal, but alas, you must buy your seeds from them year after year. Livestock may be the only source of food they can't readily fuck with due to the nature of live birth being the means of reproduction, but they can always mandate a cull if you are within radius of another diseased animal (which they can create the conditions with ease).
All of that said, uprooting your life isn't necessary at the moment, but starting a garden or even just a few planters is never a bad idea

Phosphorous and oil are finite resources and both needed for fertilizer production. All the major places that process oil into fertilizer and natural gas into sodium nitrate for preserving meat are veritable coontowns. Even recently a Chinese sabotour was caught trying bring grain devestating bioweapons into the US.

Its all very fragile. Even if the those in charge don't play games the clock is ticking as resources deplete. Water tables continue to drop faster than nature can replenish them in many places. Scarcity breeds Low Trust and the acceptance of low quality foreign degrees and use of AI is a ticking time bomb for Competency as a resource. Policing is increasingly ineffective. Inflation steals from the poor and an ever increasing welfare system makes people who were once lower middle class more and more dependant on the system deigning that we deserve to live.

That being said. I am skeptical of full scale societal collapse scenarios and pretty optimistic that nukes will never be used.

Get strapped. Stock up. Have a plan B and C. Network effectively. Don't stress out.

>unless its yours by ancestral right
If you go back far enough everyoe has this right.

>>2823758
I guess I will just have to start killing until the ancestral right falls to me

son, if your compulsive wankposting is called out every time you do it, it's you who needs to get away from the screen and go outside.

I have $200,000.
Are there any viable options anywhere in the country to start a self sufficient farm with a decent house?
I'm willing to learn how to build one.

When can I use it as drinking water again?

Use RO you absolute mong. Stock-up on replacement membrane and filters. It's a 10 minutes job to service it.

Imagine thinking you own property just because you gave a bank money

Take the hobo pill

>>2811469
Lol.
Rape wont be needed.
Women will be trading sex for a bottle of water.

Seriously.
Think about the average woman you know.
Could they filter/boil pond water safely?
Would they be willing to pack a pair of bolt cutters and journey around in an attempt to find a delivery truck that might have canned food?
Would they even be able to gut a rabbit and throw it on a spit?

>>2836656
Why are some guys so invested in the idea of current civilization collapsing? Is it just blaming all the things they want but don't have on civilization and making up a scenario where magically they suddenly came out on top? My suspicion is: Losers now will equally be losers under those hypothetical circunstances, which won't happen anyway. But it would be funny to wittness the mass humblings.

>>2836700
Give me one reason why you think the current way things are going is in any way shape or form sustainable.

>>2836747
It's not. So what? It's not black and white either. This does not mean that there will be a catastrophic shift.
And the central argument stands independently: Losers now will be losers then. Gradual decline, radical shift or whatever it wont change that.

Dont you have to castrate them before you milk them? Goats are like kids to me: i like to look at them but not take care of em. I agree with piganon that temperment is king. One saved me from a rattler when i was a kod

>>2801684 (OP)
>Have you started a self reliant homestead?
i think i can survive for 2, maybe 3 years easily
after that, food will be a major problem
anything else is somewhat covered, water -> own well, electricity -> solar + battery enough to power whole house and tools, heating -> heat pump + wood stove and own enough forest, alcohol -> small distillery, most foods -> enough space to grow for wife and myself, small orchard, and equipment / knowledge to ferment / preserve, defense -> 2 hunting rifles

problem is
I don't grow staples other than potatoes and maize at the moment (and I'm really bad at growing potatoes)
i tried soi beans, green lentils and oats, but it's so fucking tedious and unrewarding
repairs also will get more difficult once my Argon 4.8 runs out

and of course if important electronic stuff breaks, then it's over

>>2801788
based, you going for a mound burial too or something else?

>>2801752
Yeah, because they are about an outdoor activity rather than newfag cancer larp

>>2806836
Seems that he could speak English though

People forget that a homestead is a target.
You can be 100% self sufficient and ill just wait in the tree line for a couple days and wait for a clear shot while.youre feeding the chickens and watering the tomatoes. You wound up dying after all that hard work because you cant protect your back 100% of the time.
Loners will be filtered by other, more desperate loners.
The only thing that survives is communities/compounds.

>>2839023
Ok this is epic

>>2839023
you would step on one of my punji sticks and die of sepsis before you got close enough to take a shot. some of use have thought long and hard on how to handle people too stupid to feed themselves

>>2837745
Whats your climate zone? Squash/zucchini is pretty easy to grow and onions and garlic combined w potatos are most everything you need for a few months to survive. For some reason sweet potatos grew like crazy for me down south but in midwest i have trouble. Probably not enough drainage in the soil

>>2839023
There's really no point in homesteading or survivalism if you're alone. If you have a family, well, you better pop out enough babies and add a few free-ranging dogs to ensure that nothing in the area escapes your attention. Not to mention motion-sensing cameras. It is the 21st century after all.

>>2839074
I was looking at land about a decade ago and came across some really nice desert scrub in Arizona for $45 and acre.
That's not a typo.
It wasnt some bank deal where you had to pay $100k in back taxes.
It really was just 45 bucks an acre. Because it was a hundred miles from any municipal water supply and no water table for a well (that you could reach without spending a million dollars).
I thought about getting some of it for fun but its just a money pit. Paying taxes on 100 acres ill visit once just seemed stupid.
