        How dare you make me start thinking about how to best connect my two rain water tanks to my house.

        This will consume at least 5 minutes of good pondering time! I hope you’re happy

              ITS FUCKING EASY TO START GARDENING EVEN WITH A RELATIVELY SMALL SPACE, AND BASIC FAMILIARITY WITH PLANTS IS BOTH A USEFUL SKILL IN THE EVENT OF CIVILIZATIONAL COLLAPSE, AND, SOME STUDIES SUGGEST; GOOD FOR YOUR MENTAL HEALTH! EVEN JUST ONE POTTED PLANT; A PRETTY FLOWER OR SOME FRESH HERBS, CAN START TO PROVIDE THIS BENEFIT

              now comply. You can see im not bluffing. I have more of these.

          There’s not really any effective way a layman can construct them.

          (Also this is a play about the generator magazine being a mechanic of the game, in Project Zomboid, plumbing into a sink automatically filters water)

            Sorry, heard too many real ‘preppers’ who fetishize about buying/hoarding til they imagine not needing a dociety because their only real skill is ingratitude for all the things tjat support them.

      A home improvement box store (in a non-crowded area) is not far from me, and there are multiple bike lanes leading to it. So, tools, pickup trucks, generators, everything

        This is for the time before you will have a safehous with everything powered by readily available commercial solar cells.
        (just in case, anything I comment about here would only work in “everyone is a Zed but you”, because otherwise survivors, and more importantly, surviving people in power, will fubar each others and everyone else’s lives, and no long-term idea will reliably work)
