If there

If we were without power for 6+ months, what is your plan to adapt and survive?

The people with guns will have all the power.

My house in Maine is completely off the grid. I'd stay up there.


















Where I would either freeze or starve to death the first winter.

Nice. How did you learn such things?

Dad? Uncle? Boy Scouts? Classes?

Or were you just an exclusively outdoors kid growing up?

He's lying.

I think I could make it 6 months. Find a medium sized dog for security purposes. If you scavenged stores early enough you could get a lot of food to hold onto. Pick a place to stay on that is within walking distance of a river or stream. Board up all windows and back or side door entrances. Start hunting.

Used to go on these types of trips with my uncle and cousins.

So good point, but I'm wondering, IF* this were to happen, who will continue to do their job? Cops/Firemen/ what will people do? banks and money and stores wotn work.
Doctors? medicine? CVS? Etc.

There would be a run on generators.

About what point do we resort to cannibalism? A couple of years? A year? Less than that?

We'll have to form a search party and hunt for highwhey then.

Yup

Every survival movie ever made falls under this premise

The first thing that would happen is wide spread looting for battery chargers. People need to update their IG and Twitter

[MrFonzworth]

Not being able to log on to ISH and talk for hours about politics?

Sell my bitcoin asap. Haha.

A lot of people would die. I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet. I'd probably be OK but yknow getting clean water would be hard. We probably have enough bottled water for like a month or something in the US (total bs number who knows), but then what? Id shower n shave w salt water. I could fakn rinse in the laguna Madre. No fux. But I need water to drink and I dono if that would be working out. Could do that shit where you boil up and catch the steam but that'd not be super sanitary in comparison.

Some shit like that would thin the population quick fast. I'd also be into going to a cold place for summer n warm for winter, assuming gas is available. There's no way to plan for that shit, you just survive. I like fruit, veggies, dried stuff like cereal. So that's not an issue. Water seems to be. Would be boring, dudes would have to have conversations and play sports, fish, do good Ole boy shit. Have to sleep when it's dark. I dono how all those old dudes stayed up by candle light and wrote novels or did science, crazy.
