I write stupid mini stories in my free time.

  • Hmm, a rather difficult question, I have quite a lot of them and I could not get attached to any of them, well, maybe him:

    and him:

  • You said it softly.

    Also, for most people, reading is an energy-consuming activity, so their brains choose an easier way to enjoy, such as series or movies, and that's pretty trivial.

  • I think commonplace civilians like you and I have probably no chance. Solar is one thing. Water-sourcing and -filtering is entirely another. You also need lots of land and farmhand knowledge to grow food lasting beyond a year; winter would kill a lot. Even chickens, which could be a major source of sustenance otherwise, barely produce eggs during the winter.

    Our best bet is really a co-op.

    I agree.

    winter would kill a lot

    In this case, people do not seem to grow anything in winter, let the soil rest and eat food canned in the basement, so to speak, which does not spoil from a few months to half a year if you are lucky.

  • Damn new world order, I have no idea how people will live in it.

  • Well, hope dies last.

    1. What climate are you in?

    Quite good, the air is fresh, in the summer it is quite tolerable, albeit hot, in my country, fortunately, fascists may not build data centers. maybe..

    1. What kind of terrain are you in? (Mountains, lowland forrest, jungle, coastal…?) 2a) Do you have the option to get to a new type of terrain / climate?

    Mountains, I'm not there yet, but they're pretty close to me, about 100-200 kilometers.

    1. What kind of tools/materials do you have access to from the start (we’re talking, do you even have a hatchet/knife, jacket, backpack, water-tight container, etc., or is this a “the clothes on your back” situation?)

    I want to make such a set for myself, what do you think?: One or two knives, possibly a third spare, One axe, not too big, but strong and durable, A high-quality hiking backpack, needles and threads for repairing clothes and backpack, knowledge or a written recipe for creating strong threads from improvised means, which nature gives(I know it sounds a little silly and not realistic but, by the way, I would like to learn a few craft specializations, maybe this will help me in exchanging services with other survivors?), A plastic two-liter bottle of water, and another bottle but empty. Then clothes: winter jacket, thermal pants, two pairs of thermal socks, two pairs of autumn socks, autumn pants, summer light pants (I'm not sure, but it seems that unlike shorts they should save at least a little from cuts or something else, I'm not good at this), shorts, summer socks, autumn shoes but also suitable for winter or rainy weather, light but durable summer shoes. Solar compass (if the one from the store breaks, I don't trust the moss).

    In general, as you can see, my knowledge is pathetic, by the way, what about "water-tight container"? I'm ashamed to admit, but I didn't think about it. Can this increase the life of tools by slowing down rust in high humidity for example?

  • I've thought about it, but I still want to prepare for the worst, given that I can't predict what to expect from the future, and the scenarios of a very likely future are not very comforting, to say the least.

    I understand that villages are better choice, and I'd rather stay there than suffer alone and risk a quick death from exhaustion, but I'd still like to prepare for the worst, because unexpected gifts can be expected from our lousy world.

  • If you are intent on actually planning for the collapse of civilization, the best chance for survival is to do everything in your power to prevent the collapse. Because if civilization collapses, the people who need to read about what to do in the library are already fucked.

    Unfortunately, civilization is moving towards self-destruction, it will collapse, it's only a matter of time, and it seems that this will happen very soon, I don't know what the minimum period is, maybe in a year or several, maybe in five or ten years, if billionaires are sent to the guillotine.

    If you’re writing a novel, the place to do your research is a library. You might need to go to a large library in a big city to have access to everything you need.

    To be honest, I just burned out from it, but yes, it's my hobby, but I'm not interested in the genres of the post-apocalypse or the end of the world.

  • The boy said OK. The man said OK. They looked at each other. They looked the other way they walked. They stopped and drank some water. The man said ok.

    I completely agree, I gave up several times because of this, although no, it was about eight or ten times, in the end I still haven't finished reading this book, even if I liked the plot along with the atmosphere of despair.

  • Well, I don't know, it's just a question, why can't I ask if I'm interested in people's opinions here? You can just not respond if you're not interested, right?

  • Damn, now I'm wondering in which country a person is measured with knives or firearms?

  • I didn't think that AI would be a big brother in reality.

  • In Spain we call these people “cuñados” (brothers-in-law), people that know everything but they are full of shit.

    I would probably call it a syndrome, I'm tired of checking how things really are, but I seem to know the most important things, so I'm 100 percent sure I'm right. But yeah.

  • A dystopian option is more likely.
