Personal tips in relation to Creating more and consuming less.

Creating Summaries:

It is good and well that we are sharing content and books, but even this comes with the danger of passiveness. Creating summaries on each topic you come across will have the twofold effect of both making you more aware and knowledgeable of the topic, and it will also allow you to teach the topic more readily to others. Creating summaries is relatively easy, all you must do is find the texts you enjoy, and take the most important lessons in the text. You don’t have to be an amazing author; simply focus on the text itself as the base.

Telegram:

Besides applications which limit the use of Telegram, I have taken to archiving all the channels and chats each Sunday, as it is a nice reset which helps me greatly.

You should always assume that somebody is watching everything that you do, online and IRL. There's always a way to carry yourself more securely, such as by using burner phones, reliable VPN services, and no longer using Windows.
There's another side to this, however - as dissidents and warriors for the cause of truth, we must be prepared to make sacrifices to our privacy if our cause is to succeed. That means staying active on public networks that are in our enemies' hands, speaking out in public, generally taking a stand for your people.
Look at it this way - the more acceleration we experience, the less time our enemies will be able to dedicate to monitoring our activities.
We're ruled over by a caste of faux-moralistic busybodies who have made it their life mission to fight dangerous Nazis.
It's time we gave them what they want.

Wild Food and Foraging Some ideas for harvesting [very short, T0, Intro to foraging]

The key thing about this briefing is that it's not a “guide” to foraging and wild food – there's plenty of them out there already, and we see no need to endlessly replicate this information. Instead we outline a framework for how you might learn more about wild food, develop your skills for food foraging, and most importantly finding ways to integrate your use of wild food within a more sustainable approach to planning your own 'food system'. There are plenty of good books out there on wild food [....] What we do in this guide is try and help you get your head around the process of collecting wild foods.

Motivations and practical limitations.

Learning to forage

Step 1 Pick your foraging area(s)

Step 2 Over a year or two walk your foraging area regularly and try to identify as much as you can

Step 3 Gradually begin to collect wild foods

Step 4 Learn to cook at home in order to develop preserving skills #Supplies

Little things that get done here and there just go a longer way than "those wars to come" you say you're preparing to.

Don't dream big if you cannot act small, for small actions, unlike big aspirations, are truly within your circle of competence.

Don't wait for a social apocalypse, don't fantasize about racial wars. Just be a day-to-day hero, and start with standing your ground.

Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams | Matthew Walker

Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life—eating, drinking, and reproducing—the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

Walker answers important questions about sleep: how do caffeine and alcohol affect sleep? What really happens during REM sleep? Why do our sleep patterns change across a lifetime? How do common sleep aids affect us and can they do long-term damage? Charting cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs, and synthesizing decades of research and clinical practice, Walker explains how we can harness sleep to improve learning, mood, and energy levels; regulate hormones; prevent cancer, Alzheimer’s, and diabetes; slow the effects of aging; increase longevity; enhance the education and lifespan of our children, and boost the efficiency, success, and productivity of our businesses. Clear-eyed, fascinating, and accessible, Why We Sleep is a crucial and illuminating book.

HOW MUCH TO STORE?

The experts at the FDA have said that the average adult will consume the following amounts of fresh food per year.

Meat - 150 to 200 pounds per year

Flour - 200 to 300 pounds

Sugar or honey - 60 pounds

Fats or Oils - 60 pounds

Salt - 5 pounds

Powdered Milk - 75 pounds

Vegetables and Fruits - 600 to 700 pounds

Water - 375 gallons

The figures above are nice guidelines, but they need to be considered from the technical angle of preserved foods rather than fresh foods.
