News: Back to Mutually Assured Survival Home Page

I've added a new board, "Off the grid".

In retrospect, the System Failure forums should probably be for more theoretical, strategic, and high-level discussions, and the Self-sufficiency forums should probably take some of the lower-level topics like Survival Gardening and Self Defense.

No New Posts Sanctuaries
The suburbs will break down due to fuel costs. The cities are barely functional. Infrastructure in deep rural areas too tenuous. Don't make a refugee of yourself; plan where you will take your stand.

No New Posts Self-defense
Self-defense means that you take personal responsibility for protecting the lives and property that you care about from unprovoked attack. The "self" part doesn't imply that you only defend yourself, it means you do it yourself.

No New Posts Aquaculture and Aquaponics
Aquaculture generally refers to raising your own fish--but some vegetables are aquatic and could conceivably share pond-space. You can pump the dirty water into a greenhouse to feed tomatoes, cucumbers, and melons--sort of an organic version of hydroponics.

Backyard chickens, mostly. I suggest keeping livestock simple unless you really know what you are doing, and can do it cheaply.

No New Posts Survival Hunting & Fishing
The SURVIVAL part means that this is strictly for food, not trophies or recreation. Also, it needs to be viable in a crisis situation. No fancy gadgets.
