Cool, dry and sunny.\u00a0 Nice.<\/p>\n
Just like yesterday.\u00a0 Only we did get a bit of patchy cloud, making me wonder if rain was coming anywhere in town.\u00a0 Didn’t materialize though.<\/p>\n
Spent the morning getting some additional stuff ready for auction, spent the afternoon dropping it off, chatting with the auctioneer, and then wasting better than an hour on a pickup when the guys weren’t there.<\/p>\n
I made over $800 on the previous bins of stuff so I’m hoping for more this time around.\u00a0 Drop in the bucket, both for stuff and for money, but ‘baby steps’.<\/p>\n
I mentioned previously that I was shifting my focus and treating the election shenanigans as a disaster that has arrived.\u00a0 I meant that the watching, waiting, and prepping phase was over, and now I’m in the ‘dealing with it’ phase.\u00a0 If this was a hurricane, I’d be raking the yard,\u00a0 running the gennie, and passing out hot chocolate.\u00a0 As it is, I’m not going to watch obsessively, only ‘keep an eye’ on things.\u00a0 I can’t change anything except to spread awareness, and the people that are likely to be convinced already are, so that’s mostly wasted effort.\u00a0 Instead I’ll continue getting ready for the next blow, getting stuff in order here.\u00a0 Bad times are still coming, and now they might come with sleepy Joe or the ho* in charge.<\/p>\n
My advice is the same.\u00a0 Be ready for shortages.\u00a0Be prepared to stay at home for prolonged periods.\u00a0 Expect social and economic disruptions and continuing degradation from ‘the good old days.’\u00a0 Plan to see this through to the other side.\u00a0 Grand gestures are grand, but there are still Jews in Poland, and Germany.\u00a0 We, the collective we, can and will get through this.\u00a0 We, the personal we, may not.\u00a0 But there are no guarantees in this life anyway, and as Zero Hedge says, On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.<\/p>\n
So do what you can, accept that it might not be enough, but give it the old school try.<\/p>\n
And keep stacking.<\/p>\n
