i don’t WANT to live off grid i don’t WANT to have to homestead i don’t WANT to have to buy a generator and a water filter and stock up on canned goods for the next crisis i want to be able to rely on my community and my government during hardships but apparently that’s not a viable option anymore

#the community part is somewhat viable but it’s just like #our current communities can only do so much #my dad is buying a generator bc the winter is gonna be really bad and #that’s almost a guarantee the texas grid will collapse again #bc it didn’t really get winterized after 2021 #i’m not actually sure id be able to get to their house in a winter emergency either and my apartment won’t be purchasing generators lol #they keep threatening to shut our power off this summer which worries me #bc it’s been so goddamn hot #i live across from a retirement home i’m more worried about them than myself #i’m young i can get a little heat exhaustion yknow?#and like my paranoia has made me a tiny bit of a prepper so i have a respirator for the wild fires #and iodine for water and some army rations and camping gear and a crank radio #but i wish it didn’t feel necessary
