I spent some time deep diving "emergency/disaster preparedness in case of war" and basically the only advice I was able to find in books and online was: "don't be where there is war - GTFO".

@ai6yr https://www.tribulationsurvival.com/TSG/SG/SF_0024.pdf ....I felt this was decent. But it was posted on a rapture survival website...
@chapulin Oooh, thanks. Reading through, aligns with what I have run into in the past.
@ai6yr my main takeaway was make sure to hoard lots of cigarettes or equivalent for trading. Oh and ammo and guns or people will take your cigarettes.
@chapulin @ai6yr are you looking for resources? I can give you solid list of sources to look at Bruce Clayton "Life after Doomsday" https://www.amazon.com/Life-After-Doomsday-Bruce-Clayton/dp/0873641752 is decent and Listening to Katrina blog only on wayback now at https://web.archive.org/web/20080923181008if_/http://www.theplacewithnoname.com:80/blogs/klessons/p/map.html
Amazon.com

@chapulin @ai6yr I can give more resources, but I know Ben is a HAM so not sure how much and what direction of info you already have.
@chapulin @ai6yr Oh Nuclear War Survival Skills or NWSS, by Cresson Kearny, is a civil defense manual is good can get some version of it on Amazon but it was originally Civil Defense publication IIRC https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/tr/pdf/ADA328301.pdf
@CliffsEsport @ai6yr I'll check those out. Thanks!
@chapulin @ai6yr There is lot of fiction from Heinlein and Niven/Pournelle that actually includes real stuff. Heinlein was scared that nuclear war would happen his Farnham's Freehold details lot of the stuff he did with his own house. And Lucifer's Hammer also has lot of stuff. Think Pournelle was friends with Mel Tappin one of the '70s survivalist/disaster prep writers
@CliffsEsport @chapulin Oh, I was just saying... most of the options are varying degrees of "life sucks"
@ai6yr @chapulin Yeah that is the reality vs fiction. And even for those with resources to relocated, at this point. not clear to me where would even be a good place. In the early days of this administration I was thinking if I had resources Greenland or Iceland. kind of glad didn't have the resources.
