Flooding has a strange way of sneaking into people’s lives. It rarely arrives with the drama of a tornado tearing rooftops away or the unmistakable violence of an earthquake. Most floods begin quietly. A heavy rain that lasts a little longer than expected. A creek that looks fuller than usual on your drive home. A storm surge forecast that sounds serious but familiar. Then suddenly streets are rivers, basements are aquariums, and the normal rules of daily life no longer apply. I learned early on that water does not care about plans, schedules, or excuses. It moves where it wants, when it ...

When the lights go out and the small conveniences you took for granted become precious, you want a sidearm that is stubborn, simple, and forgiving. I built this book from the kind of rainy, dusty, inconvenient nights that teach you more than a fancy spec sheet.

Inside you will find: • Clear, no-nonsense guidance on choosing the right GP100 variant for your life, from barrel length to grips and sights. • A realistic ...

This book is not a sermon, it is not a marketing brochure, it is not highfalutin gear porn. This is a straight, honest, detailed look at why a Glock is a sensible, durable, practical tool for When The Stuff Hits The Fan. I am writing this because I have seen the edge cases, the situations where common sense meets chaos, and having a simple, dependable pistol makes a measurable difference. I want you to know what a Glock brings to the table, what it does not, how to make it work for you, and how to avoid the little mistakes that turn tools into liabilities.

I still remember the night the power went out for three days in my neighborhood. At first, it was almost fun: candles, flashlights, and neighbors chatting in the street. But by day two, people were melting ice in coolers just to keep food cold, and by day three, the mood had changed. The gas stations were out of fuel, the stores had been picked clean, and the sound of generators echoed through the night like desperate prayers. It was a small taste of how fast things can fall apart, and how fragile our comfort really is. Most people think disaster happens somewhere else to someone else. But ...

If the world goes sideways, people reach for what works, what is simple, and what will keep them and their family fed, warm, and safe. The Marlin 336 is one of those things, plain and stubborn, the kind of tool that does not court attention, it earns trust. In the preps community there is a lot of shiny gear, complicated checklists, and five-step solutions that require internet access to function. This book is not for that crowd. This book is for people who prefer a reliable rifle that you can teach your teenager to operate, that you can strip with a screwdriver and a towel, and that will ...

If you’re holding this book, you’re probably already aware of how fragile our modern world really is. One massive EMP attack or a solar flare like the 1859 Carrington Event could knock out our power grids, silence our communication systems, and send us back to the dark ages overnight. And here’s the hard truth: it’s not a matter of if—it’s a matter of when. We live in an age where convenience rules everything. Tap a screen, and food shows up at your door. Flip a switch, and your house lights up. But what happens when the grid goes down? When your phone’s dead, the grocery ...

In a world gone dark, with no help on the way and danger around every corner, the sidearm you carry isn’t just a tool; it’s your last line of defense. And for those who know its history and respect its bite, the 1911 still stands tall. In The 1911 For SHTF, survival author Ben Cooper delivers the definitive guide for anyone serious about relying on the 1911 when everything goes to hell. Regardless of whether you’re a seasoned shooter, a prepper building your system, or someone dead-set on carrying the old warhorse when the lights go out, this book gives you the honest, no-fluff ...

If society hiccups or it craters, the conversation around guns suddenly becomes practical, not political. This book is about that practical conversation, about choosing and using firearms as tools that perform when convenience vanishes, and about the skills that make those tools useful. I write like I talk, plain, a little wry, and focused on what works. No chest-thumping, no fantasy scenarios, just honest guidance so you can make sensible choices for yourself and the people who depend on you. This book grew out of living the messy parts of preparedness, the parts people do not show in ...

When disaster strikes, the first thing most people realize is just how fragile everyday life really is. Supermarket shelves empty in hours, power goes down without warning, and the systems we trust to keep us safe and comfortable suddenly stop working. In those moments, you either have a plan or you become part of the chaos. For me, preparedness has never been about paranoia. It is about responsibility, about knowing that my family and I are not at the mercy of luck or government response times. It is about building resilience one step at a time, making sure I have the skills, supplies, and...

Disasters come in many shapes, they are not dramatic movie-level collapses most of the time, they are power outages, trips to buy supplies that turn complicated, storms that block roads, or periods when services are delayed. If you are preparing for those days when systems are strained, your choices should favor reliability, maintainability, and logistics that you can sustain. The Beretta 92 checks many of those boxes. It is a proven platform, ammunition is widely available in many places, magazines are abundant, and the design is straightforward enough that a calm, repeated routine will ...

I live in a place that looks just like yours. Lawns trimmed on Saturdays. Kids riding bikes until dinner. Garage doors that hum open at the push of a button. A fridge full of food we assume will stay cold. Phones that stay charged. Heat that comes on when it is cold. Air conditioning that kicks in when it is hot. We are surrounded by systems that work so well, so consistently, that we forget they can stop working at all. Until they do. Extended blackouts are not dramatic at first. They do not arrive with explosions or sirens. They begin quietly. A flicker. A click. A moment of confusion ...

When the world falls apart you will not get a polite warning first. You might be driving home from work or standing in the grocery store and then suddenly the rules you thought kept everything safe stop working. If you have ever felt that small knot in your stomach when the power goes out or the news shows cities burning you already know the feeling. That is your gut telling you that normal can disappear fast. This book is about concealed carry when normal has collapsed. This is not about Hollywood style shootouts. This is about that moment when the police are not answering, the lights are ...

If you’re like me, you probably spend a decent amount of time thinking about how to protect yourself and your family from all kinds of threats. We’ve all got our stockpiles of food, water, and basic survival gear, but there’s one thing that often gets overlooked: protecting your electronics. And let’s be honest, in the modern world, we rely on those gadgets more than we’d like to admit—whether it’s for communication, navigation, or storing critical information. That’s where the concept of the Faraday cage comes in. If you’ve never heard of it before, don’t worry. The ...

Imagine this: you’re at work, running errands, or sitting in traffic on your way home when suddenly, everything stops. Your car won’t start, your phone goes dead, and the lights in every building around you blink out. It’s not just a power outage—this is something bigger. An electromagnetic pulse (EMP) has just disrupted modern life as we know it, and you’re stranded miles from home, with no way to communicate or rely on technology to guide you back. Scary, right? But here’s the thing—you don’t have to panic. With the right preparation, you can turn a chaotic and potentially...

Hey there, friend. Pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee, and let’s talk. Not about doom and gloom—though we’ll touch on some serious stuff—but about being ready. Really ready. Ready for whatever life throws at you. This isn’t about paranoia or panic. This is about taking control and being smart. It’s about peace of mind. Now, I know what you might be thinking: “Prepping?

You don’t need a fortune or a PhD in engineering to ...

The Unremarkable is a scripted fiction anthology podcast exploring the quiet, unsettling moments hidden inside everyday life. Each episode tells a self contained story set in familiar places and ordinary routines. A house across the street. A letter in the mailbox. A sound you almost ignore. These are stories where nothing seems wrong at first, until it slowly is. Inspired by classic anthology storytelling in the tradition of The Twilight Zone and Alfred Hitchcock, The Unremarkable blends atmospheric sound design, dark humor, and reflective narration to create slow burn psychological stories ...

Not if you want to really survive when martial law is declared in your city. This isn’t about knowing what martial law is; it’s about knowing exactly what to do next. This book ...
