#suvivalist

[kineticpenguin]

Somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, there is a survivalist.

The survivalist is a white cis male homeowner who considers himself apolitical. From an early age, he's had a love of camping, shooting, and a deep belief that someday, the world is going to experience some sort of cataclysm that will make his beloved hobbies essential survival skills.

The survivalist's deep-seated belief in impending doom did not stop him from seeking a partner or having children. Today, he has a wife and two young daughters, with a son on the way. He is vaguely Christian and believes he is doing his duty by being fruitful and multiplying.

The suvivalist is passionate about his interests. He works out. He takes his family camping as often as he can. He has taken classes at places like Thunder Ranch and has trained as an EMT. He rides an expertly-kitted adventure bike (just in case) and he has plenty of supplies and backup plans for any situation. He has installed solar panels on his house's roof and has a backup generator with a generous supply of fuel.

You would not believe how much water and dried food this man has in his basement.

The survivalist dies on June 23, 2037 when a 9.3 earthquake collapses his house. Ironically, this was entirely preventable, but anchoring his house's mudsill to the foundation wasn't a toy he could play with, nor was it good Instagram content.

HBO's The Last Of Us Changes A Key Video Game Relationship, And For The Better

In the game, Bill is mostly there to teach the player how to make pipe bombs, to introduce the threat of the bloaters, and to show Ellie the first location outside the big city, where they see the effects of the outbreak on the country at large. We meet Bill as the ultimate paranoid suvivalist, a man who trusts no one, and only helps Joel begrudgingly. We find out that Bill’s partner, Frank, has…

Tej trusted the ‘feast’ as much as anything else on the island. He was starved, yeah, but too leery to try (he’d wait to see if anyone keeled over from the food first). In the meantime, he explored more of the surroundings. Eventually he found himself on black sand. On the beach, a sense of morbid curiosity kept him watching a group as they commandeered a life raft. The only leader amongst the crowd was their collective sense of panic. 

‘This seems a bit dangerous…’ He glanced at the woman beside him. “Yeah it is. They’re not even paddling out the same.” Flailing and splashing, the raft was pulled in different directions by the paddlers. “Getting more water into the raft than what’s outside of it,” he judged. Stupid fuckers, he thought.

The open ocean, she’d said. Nothing seen for miles. No airplanes had flown overhead and no other cruise ships sailed across the horizon. “You know a suvivalist guide is here? Had a tv show or something. They’re not in the boat, are they?” 

The open ocean, her words rang in his mind again louder than the garbled warnings through tinny speakers. Tej sighed and crossed his arms over his chest. “Let them be the ducks. They’ll go out ahead of anyone. See how far they make it.” See if their bodies washed up on shore in a few days, was what he meant. A grim thought, but Tej had never been a ray of sunshine.

Tej saw something just as the raft had gone many yards off shore. “Oh, oh damn. Look what's ahead of them,” and he pointed it out to her. A tall and heavy tunneling of water, a large wave that seemed to come out of nowhere, now barreled towards the life raft. Tej’s hands lifted, to the top of his head, fingers interlocked as he watched. “Shit. They’re fucked.” Screams came first. Then the wave pummeled and pushed the boat over as though it were a child’s toy.

People seemed to have made their way off the ship, but there were a lot of people scrambling. Even though there was the offer of a feast, and from what Selin saw, it truly lived up to that name, there was a small crowd of people who kept away. Not only that, it seemed as though a hasty plan was being hatched.

Selin wasn't sure how or why she got roped into it, perhaps it was her fault for staring. The group must have thought her curiosity was due to her desire to get out of here rather than confusion at their lack of preparation. Using a lifeboat from the cruise ship, they decided they'd easily be able to find help, get home, and believed surely it had to work.

At least they were kind enough to gather as many people as they could with them, anyone who wished to free was able to join. Selin wasn't interested in a plan that ignored any extra thought so she stayed back. She turned to a guy near her, also watching all of this unfold, curious about what his take on this was. "This seems a bit dangerous, don't you think? I don't necessarily want to be here either but...sailing blindly out into the open ocean like that..."

10 SHTF Survival Hacks

I just felt inspired to write this short post, and discuss some easy hacks and skills which can be valuable both in emergency situations, and in daily life. Put a $20 bill in your phone case, if you forget to bring your wallet with you or go somewhere they don't accept cash, you'll always have money on you. Also, be sure to store phone numbers written down on a piece of paper in the event, your cell phone stops working.Use a crayon as a candle; Yea a crayon can serve as a candle, and they can burn for a decent amount of time. Sometimes, as much as 20 to 30 minutes.Use a can and a candle as a lantern, cut open the can and put a small candle on the can. This can also serve to prevent the candle from being blown out by wind.Filtering water with two jars and a bandanna. So, in one jar you'l have the dirty water, and in the other jar nothing - leave empty. Elevate the dirty jar and put a piece of cloth in between the two. Now, be sure to boil the water though as it won't be safe to drink, but at least won't be dirty.Make a compass with a needle, get a small piece of metal, like a needle and rub it against your clothing several times, then lay it on top of some water, and it will point north.Battery exchange. Are you out of double A batteries and have some triple A batteries around? You can use AAA batteries instead of double A batteries, by simply balling up some aluminum foil - to fill the gap in the battery compartment. Both types of batteries output 1.5 volts in differ only an amperage, but in a small device like a flashlight, this is not an issue.chalk - And avoid getting lost. Anytime you venture out into the wilderness, you should carry a few pieces of chalk. If you happen to get lost mark your path along the way. This serves two functions and ensures you don't wander in circles, and it will also help search and rescue crews to track you down.Carry Aluminum Foil in your bug out bag. This can serve many purposes, by being able to hold and boil water, and you can also use it to put on the ground if you're trying to start a fire on damp ground.headlamps are great for looking ahead but not so much when you need to light up the entire area. The solution is to turn your headlamp inward facing a jug of water between the translucency of the plastic and refraction of the water, light gets bounced all over the place, creating an area light similar to a lantern rather than a focus beam like a flashlight.A signaling device, using a glow stick and a cord. You can easily create a signaling device if you get lost by twirling it around in a circle, you'll be visible from a long distance. Read the full article

"Hello, Riki. 

Oh, that's fine. It's something I can't exactly help, to be honest. Let's just say it was the reason that I started this whole pen pal stuff in the first place.

I don't usually see 'adventuring', 'scientist' and 'inventor' together. You sound like a really busy man, but in a really admirable way. What do you usually invent and research? Vanilla redstone? Maybe mods, if you know what those are?

On my end, I enjoy spending time reading and coding. I'm trying out some things at the moment, but cracking a problem is my way to destress. I like thick books, and I like games as well. Er... I do own a laptop and a switch, but I didn't have time to play games until now. Got any recommendations?

Sincerely, Rudell."

So I finished season 2 of Camp Cretaceous, and...I really, really liked it! Now that the kids already had their rapport formed and had their more annoying tendencies softened by character development, it was a lot easier to get invested in them, and it had a lot of that survival stuff I was hoping for. 

That being said, there were a few elements that I didn’t care for, but to get into both those and the stuff I enjoyed, we’ll need a spoiler tag.

All right, so my main assessment of season 1 was that it started out so-so for the first few episodes only to see a massive leap forward once the dinosaurs had escaped, which only escalated up to a baller finale. Granted, this was likely deliberate, as sometimes you need to start off slow on purpose to lay the foundation for the much cooler stuff you want to do later. Hell, I do it all the time. But it’s still kind of a drag to get through.

In contrast, this season started off very strong and was building momentum to the whole survivalism/uncover the mysteries of the park I was hoping for (seriously that one episode with their really cool treehouse about them fixing the blocked river was exactly the sort of thing I wanted), only for that to suddenly get brought to a screeching halt and then taken in a different direction entirely by the arrival of the hunters, and while the mysteries set up in those early episodes were not forgotten and continued to pay off, I wasn’t a huge fan of the new direction. I mean, it’s not a bad idea, and credit where it’s due, once the hunters had dropped the facade, momentum picked the hell up back again, and those last two episodes were fantastic. 

It’s just I was hoping for something else, and it looked like it was going to be that thing I wanted, only for these new characters to suddenly show up and take things into a totally different direction, and in doing so returned the show to what really felt a lot like early season 1 pacing. And I was kinda rolling my eyes in how over-the-top Saturday morning cartoon villain evil they got. And on the opposite end of the spectrum, Hap’s good turn was a bit...extreme, I guess. I mean, it was by no means a dealbreaker or even that bad, it just felt a little forced.

That being said, the whole rich Yuppie couple hunters going to Jurassic World to hunt dinosaurs is a neat idea, especially given their deliberate resemblance to Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler. Heck, even Hap could be mistaken for Ian Malcom if glimpsed from behind. And hey, when things really took off, they did a good job making the couple absolutely hateable, and I loved that they had the balls to have them get straight up eaten in a kid’s show. Those two moments were deliciously cathartic, especially after they killed the Baronyx. That moment made me gasp out loud, and then actively start rooting for their gory demises, which I got, and it was AWESOME!. Plus, the battle of wits between them and the kids was joyfully chaotic, and Rexy was used very well in the first and final episodes.

I also really liked what they did with Ben. I mean, him coming back as this now badass suvivalist was to be expected, but it was still cool to see how much he’s grown up while still having a bit of the old Ben in there. His solo episode was a season highlight. I even enjoyed the fight with Toro, even if it was really silly. 

So yeah, I had some issues, but overall I liked this season a lot. And while I feel that season 1 was more consistently paced, I do prefer season 2, and give it a solid 8.5 out of 10.

Now, in regards to the big mystery of what’s in E750, the most popular theory is that it’s an Indoraptor. And you know what? I would totally be down for an Indoraptor! Only problem with that theory is that it doesn’t line up with the timeline, as the Indoraptor wasn’t created by Dr. Wu until much later using the recovered Indominus tooth, and that obviously hasn’t happened yet. 

So as an alternative, maybe it’s a Spinoraptor from Jurassic World Evolution? The Carnoraptor from the toy line? Maybe it’s another Spinosaurus? Hell, it could be the Ultimasaurus from Chaos Effect! Whatever it is, it will undoubtedly be the main dino threat in season 3.

3 Reasons Your Suvivalist Expert Is Broken (And How to Fix It)

Capturing a bow well is no different than swinging a golf club with accuracy-- for that excellent hit, it takes skill as well as correct technique for smooth, accurate execution. This is why professional training is such a craze in golf-- practice does not make perfect-- best method makes best. If even more archers would certainly look for mentoring, they would certainly eliminate a lot of disappointment, equally as amateur golfers do.

Read More: https://topsurvivor.com/category/camping/tents/

The trouble is, archery has less trainers easily offered compared to golf. What ultimately takes place is that nearly all archers, also professional shooters, end up mentoring themselves. The bright side is that it can be done as long as you have a detailed understanding of what comprises excellent capturing type and also exactly how the mind works, so you can educate on your own correctly.

KNOW THE MIND

According to avid tournament shooter as well as bowhunter, Darin Cooper thinks accuracy begins with understanding the mind.

" The average shooter can never ever unlock his/her potential without recognizing how their mind functions as it connects to firing a bow," said Cooper. "Ultimately, it has control over your success and also failing."

Cooper breaks the mind into two parts-- the mindful as well as subconscious. The conscious can just think about one procedure at any type of provided time, while the subconscious is a multi-task, super-efficient computer system; it can control thousands of procedures all at the very same time.

To educate yourself to shoot right, you have to utilize close-range shooting practice-- which is finest finished with your eyes closed.

Specialists call it "blind bale" capturing. This sort of technique allows the conscious mind to adopt brand-new abilities but, with repetitive practice, permits the new abilities to become soaked up by the subconscious, saving them in its detailed, highly-sophisticated memory financial institution. From right here, the subconscious is best laid off so it can perform these jobs without interruption. The subconscious works in harmony by doing this. This is very vital to identify and is where most archers go wrong.

By maintaining your eyes closed, you stop the conscious mind from doing what it generally does-- targeting at the target. By doing this, you release it for use. Currently you can focus on one more task, something in your shooting form you wish to improve.

If you're trying to boost your follow-through after the shot, place all your attention (mindful mind) on maintaining your bow arm up after the release of the arrow. You must keep believing and also focusing on this over as well as over till the subconscious incorporates the new method, logging it away. With adequate repeating, the mind and also muscle memory will certainly tackle the brand-new behavior and you will certainly no longer need to worry about it.

Psycho therapists say it takes around 21 days to learn a new routine, so if you recognize several mistakes in your shooting form, you'll have to spend a lot of time on the empty bundle until programming works.

" It's a good idea to tell yourself when you make a great shot," claimed Cooper. "This type of positive pep talk sends a message to the subconscious, confirming that all points remain in order. This will improve progression."

something that isnt payday related, but instead Killing Floor 2 related

unless you count my PD2 related watermark.

a medic-orientated headcanon DJ Scully.

technically a suvivalist, with a lean tward medic, but always the one up front and killing zeds.

he still has a love for all the in game weapons he likes (KRISS Vector/P90/Eviscerator/Caulk ‘N Burn/SCAR/ect.) but with an added like to the Medic Assault Rifle (HM401) and Katana.

courtesy of a friend, and some cosmetics he has for KF2.

unfortunately you can’t wear the sawtooth mask and skullyphones together :(

icon was made for my friend on Steam.

majority of headcanon can be seen if you keep reading.

The headcanon for this Scully is that he was an experiment between Killing Floor and Killing Floor 2, due to some botched pyrotechnics at his Bedlam gig. An explosion nearly claimed his life, and a Horzine head scientist narrowly saved his life, altering his DNA with Zed/Specimen additions/changes. So if either greatly angry or sad, he could be similar to a raging Scrake or Fleshpound, or a screaming Siren. He was a high candidate due to being Ex-Military (somewhat confirmed through the steampunk DLC for Killing Floor), he had much more experience with combat than any other KF/KF2 character.

Though it’s mostly offset by his happy-go-lucky personality, and despite being front line material, and a medic, he has a great dislike to watch anybody bite the dust for him not paying attention (similar to my friend being guilty when players die, that aren’t boosted). His personality offsets his Specimen DNA additions due to how he’s generally living each day like his last, and could care less if he dropped dead during any mission.

With Scully’s in-game model having lack of eyes (as seen here), he does however have eyebrows (to what I’ve noticed.), his hair color to his IG model is dark, so I decided to try a dark brown/auburn color.

Aside from that, Scully’s ex-military experience made him a catalyst to use against the Killing Floor 2 mercenaries, a cure of his problem for their cooperation. However had it rolled, Scully’s life would’ve ended in the process.

That mask he wears (the Red Toothed Sawtooth mask for KF2) acts like a muzzle when he’s feeling Zed-ish. Keeping him from biting others, or spilling acidic saliva. A side effect to the additional DNA in his system.

Foster and Scully are pals in this headcanon too.

And I mean very close buddies.

Spring Instruction: Workout routines for Potent Knees and Hamstrings

Want solid knees when hiking season begins? Function your hamstrings currently.

Certain, you might trek on your own right into shape come springtime-- yet you can trek yourself right into an injury while doing so. A too-sedentary off-season can shorten and deteriorate your hamstrings, which indicates feeble knees. "The hamstrings keep the knees safely aligned as you trek," discusses Suzie Snyder, a journey racer and strength-and-conditioning coach based in Wallingford, Connecticut. Solid hams sustain your pack's weight as well as aid ligaments support the knee over uneven surface, especially when you're descending with a pack. "Work those muscular tissues, and you'll hike downhill much faster and reduce the threat of knee injuries," Snyder says. Reinforce your hamstrings with these 3 hamstring exercises; for maximum benefit, do them 3 times weekly, starting 6 to eight weeks prior to your first large journey.

Rotating lunges.

Exactly how Standing with feet shoulder-width apart, take a huge step forward, shifting your weight to your front leg while bending the back knee as well as dropping the hips toward the ground. Maintain your front shin upright as well as your upper leg alongside the flooring. Time out briefly, after that go back to a standing placement without dragging the front foot. Alternative with the other leg for 20 lunges total. Work up to 3 sets of 20 reps per leg. After two weeks, drop to 3 collections of 10 associates while putting on a 10-pound backpack. Add 5 pounds to the pack per workout until you reach 30 to 40 pounds.

Why Lunges job the hamstrings and glutes, which "apply the brakes as you hike downhill," Snyder states. Using a loaded pack elevates your center of gravity and obstacles your equilibrium, which educates your hamstrings to steady the knees over loose rock or unequal ground.

Stability round leg curls.

Just how http://survival702.lowescouponn.com/15-up-and-coming-suvivalist-export-bloggers-you-need-to-watch Lie face-up on the floor with legs prolonged as well as heels in addition to a security ball. Lift your hips off of the floor and also draw your heels towards your butt, keeping your toes as well as knees punctuated. Hold your hips high as well as straighten your legs; do 3 sets of 10. When that action ends up being very easy, attempt them one-legged: Extend one leg towards the ceiling while you roll the sphere towards your butt with the various other.

Why Each time you tip down, the hamstrings agreement and draw the reduced leg under you, "like doing leg curls right down the mountain," claims Snyder. This workout resembles that on-trail motion to reinforce hamstrings and also protect against the knee pain created when the quads are disproportionately more powerful than the muscles on the back of the leg.

Hamstring muscle rolls.

Resting your body weight on the foam, utilize your hands and nonsupported leg to crab-walk your body backward, rolling over the foam from butt to knee. Repeat eight times, or till the tenderness and also discomfort in your hamstrings decrease.

Why This rolling workout relaxes and extends hamstrings after a challenging exercise, calming fatigue as well as flushing lactic acid from the muscle mass. "If muscles do not recover from one training round, the following session will certainly be endangered," claims Snyder. This simple recovery step protects against cramping and also lowers the danger of injury during your next training session. Get the same advantages on a multiday journey by substituting a canteen for a foam roller to restore hamstrings' full ability as well as series of movement.
