Whether you're a seasoned prepper or just recently found your underground bunker and stash of canned goods, SURTHIVING is the gritty, no-BS, tell-it-like-it-is guide you need to survive when the SHTF. So buckle up, buttercup, because we're diving headfirst into the vortex of urban mayhem and rural chaos!
Laying Down the Ground Rules
Before we dive into the thick of it, let's get some ground rules straight: 1) Be prepared; 2) Fortify your home, shit-hole or castle, it won't matter if it ain't secure; 3) Gather a team, but watch your back; 4) Stay sharp, stay focused, and never lose sight of your goals; 5) Versatility is the name of the game, learn as much as you can to adapt when shit gets real; 6) Remember the golden rule of zombie flicks: always have a shotgun with you; and lastly, 7) You can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs, so don't be a pussy and take control of your fucking life.
The Art of Self-Defense
Incisively learning to take care of yourself starts with a solid foundation in self-defense. Here are a few tips to get you started:
1. Close-Combat Fighting: Get your hands dirty and learn to neutralize threats through grisly, up-close-and-personal encounters. Krav Maga, Kali, and Muay Thai can provide invaluable street-fighting strategies.
2. Firearms Mastery: Pistols, shotguns, semi-automatics—know them, love them, and never let them leave your side. Practice religiously, shoot regular target practice, and always err on the side of caution when handling.
3. First Aid Fundamentals: Whether you're patching up a wounded comrade or tending to your own duke tatas, knowing basic first aid can be the difference between life and death. Secure a comprehensive first aid kit with essentials such as bandages, tourniquets, and antiseptics, and study up on emergency procedures like CPR. But remember, a well-aimed shotgun blast can often do the trick.
The Beauty of Breaking and Entering
When rummaging through abandoned buildings for supplies, discretion is the better part of valor. Break-in techniques, lock-picking skills, and night-vision gear can come mighty handy. Learn to scout your surroundings, exploit weaknesses, and tread lightly if you want to keep your fucking paws intact.
Long-Term Preparedness
Surviving the initial chaos is, admittedly, a colossal task, but ensure that your prepper spirit continues to burn by focusing on long-term strategies.
1. Food Storage: Stockpile a hefty arsenal of food staples like canned goods, rice, beans, and grains, making certain they've got a long shelf life. Fresh foods will subsequently fall by the wayside, but a steady diet of beans and rice can fill a hollow belly ain't no thang.
2. Water Purification: Basic sanitation and hydration go hand-in-hand. Learn to continuously procure water from rivers, lakes, or ground sources, using filtration systems, boiling, or water purification tablets to render that H2O drinkable. Hell, if push comes to shove, just swallow the piss—it beats death, ain't it?
3. Shelter Construction: From a simple lean-to to a fully-realized hideaway, sheltering yourself from the elements is essential for your continued survival. Learn to fashion makeshift shelters utilizing natural materials found in your environment, or, better yet, set sights on building that goddamn underground fortress you've always dreamed about. Recycled aluminum cans can make formidable fire starters, don't forget!
When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going
When the SHTF, darkness will descend without a warning, and shit-hitters will run amok. The weak will fall by the wayside, but the strong will thrive: adapt, evolve, and ultimately, survive.
Remember, we're all just a few lessons away from true greatness. When you stumble upon someone trying to teach the wrong lessons, boot ‘em out, Fenrir the fuckin' wolf only wanted a better world for the strong and wild. Now go forth, and claim your slice of survival heaven.
[1] Bartering Tips: Paperbacks of Bukowski’s poetry, bottles of good Whiskey, and disposable cameras are sure bets for bartering.
[2] Water Purification: Boiling water for 10 minutes is the most effective means of purification, but when you don't have time for that, water filtration, iodine tablets, and UV light purifiers will do the trick.
[3] First Aid Kit Wishlist: Gauze, tweezers, antibiotic ointment, scissors, pain relievers, fingers of silver reassurance (totally optional).
[4] Self-Defense Training: Join a martial arts club or learn from YouTube videos, but try to find a mentor to brush up your skills when the shit hits the fan.
[5] Home Fortification: Reinforce doors and windows, listen to podcasts, and invest in motion sensors to survey the area around your home. Don't forget to post headshots of any unwelcome squatters.
[6] Layered Evacuation Plans: Formulate a plan with your family, friends, and fellow survivalists to stay connected and roam the wastelands together, making sure you always have a getaway when things go pear-shaped.
