People on /r/austin were complaining about being out of food on MONDAY!!!
I stocked up on Thursday. That's how much warning we had for this storm. It's just unbelievable how ill prepared people are.
Today someone posted about their "prepper friend" inviting everyone over who needed food or warmth. The OP didn't go because they didn't want to "feed his ego".
See, there you go thinking like a rational, self-possessed individual. Most of these commies will seek protection/supplies from us without the slightest bit of irony or self-awareness. Like badly behaved children entitled to the unwavering support of their parents, no matter how much they fuck up.
hahahaha, that is so funny because I was reading that sub too knowing how many commies live in Austin. FUCKING PATHETIC how many people complaining.
"Cold makes the virus worse"
Lol. Heating season keeps virions aloft longer, and farther. In a power outage? It's not heating season anymore.
Fucking retards.
I stocked up in January after the DC farce. Kicking myself that I didn't pull the trigger on that generator purchase.
Ever since I bought the generator, I don't have power outages anymore.
Best anti-outage purchase I've made! 699$ at Costco.
Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
I've never used my propane radiant heaters after spending 400 bucks on them.
But i'll never sit in a 20 degree home in the dark ever again either.
Please post in DIY. You seem to know more about this than most. We should expect this to become "the new normal"
If we get that stimmy check, definitely get one. It is wellllllllll worth the money. Get one that can run on multiple fuels. Make sure to put the generator in some place where someone can't steal it because when it gets desperate out you get all the entitled parasites coming out expecting you to help them. They hear the engine running that's how they know you have a generator. Also make sure to have it properly vented to prevent carbon monoxide.
My personal setup is that I have it in the garage and have an exhaust pipe to the outside. I put a small hole in my wall so I can run electrical cords from the garage to the inside of the house. That way if you want to conserve energy/heat you can run the cord to a specific room if needed. Works like a charm!
Yeah, I don’t understand it either. Like, how hard is it to store a couple flats of bottled water and some non-perishable food? I have some irritatingly severe food allergies, so I have to plan ahead for this stuff and it costs me more, but for most people, it’s pretty affordable.
Beyond that... like, go to the fucking store and get your groceries ahead of time. IDK, maybe people were still thinking food deliveries and restaurants would still be open, or something insanely dumb like that. We’ve been stuck in a stupid “pandemic” for a year. Doesn’t anybody remember the grocery runs back last March? Haven’t we all learned how to cook our own meals by now?
It's the same everywhere. People get complacent, and liberals expect the government to hold their hands in a crisis. It's always baffled me how many people live in CA and don't have a quake kit, or non-perishables if a big enough one hits that stores close and the food supply is interrupted. It's common sense. But then I grew up in and later lived in NY, where every report of a snowstorm leads to grocery stores runs.
We just have a lot of idiots on the left side of the bell curve.
Cooking has seen an uptick with the lockdowns, but mostly based on monthly/weekly delivery plans like Blue Apron. Or the air fryer fad that replaced the slow cooker fad (both are useful, though) Most people I know over 30 can cook basic things. It's the under 30's who have no clue how to cook anything, it's like magic to them, because a lot of them were raised by single mothers who fed them fast food and junk food every meal.
They best not hold their breathe for Pretend President Potatohead to ride to the rescue.
He's too busy babbling about "cultural differences" to cover up Chinese genocide.
Yeah, the lack of self-sufficiency and desire to be taken care of by the government is a serious problem in a survival situation. I have older friends who were NG during Katrina... everyone in New Orleans was sitting around waiting for the government to swoop in and make it all better.
I just cannot wrap my head around the concept of everything being “status quo” forever. I suppose that’s what most people think. Like, it’s fine to rely on Amazon and food deliveries and “just in time” logistics, nothing will ever happen! I can’t remember a time I felt that secure. Maybe when I was a little kid? For me, civilization has always felt tenuous.
I only use a crock pot for kielbasa and saurkraut really. Everything else it kinda messes up. Unless you have some good recipes
Crock pot is a slightly different animal - what I'm talking about are instapots and rice cookers, that have more controls than a simple crock pot - which are great, too.
I use my rice maker for all kinds of things - rice, beans, vegetables, simple soups, stews, and steel cut oatmeal. I'm considering trying an air fryer next. A friend of mine got one and I've tried the meals she makes, it's not bad - will never be as good as a grill, but acceptable.
I've been buying a few Mountain House cans of food every month when they're available. Oatmeal too. It's chap AF.
Thank God my DIL in Dallas is an amateur prepper because she has them well stocked and cared for even though they have been without power most of the time since Monday and without water today. And she’s a huge lib, too, but I don’t hold that against her 😋!
We moved south out of Austin theee years ago and have never regretted it for one minute.
