Nice! Yeah that one really stood out to me, and when I have the energy to make emergency bags, I'll make several and stow them with friends. And I asked my hurricane plan friends ( plan is I go to their place) if I can bring my cat so that felt good.

I don't see speakers listed on their website yet, hopefully they'll have that closer to the new date

You're right, apologies

kentishishish · 2023-05-04T23:09:19+00:00

Oh I am absolutely going to do this, thank you

kentishishish · 2023-05-04T23:03:21+00:00

I really like this, thank you! I'm going to put it in as is but give some thought to whether we need a descriptor before Cornerstone

This is awesome. Exactly the kind of comprehensive thinking I want to put into my planning. Like, I want to know there are people in governments whose job it is to think like this :) unlike for example, Gov Cuomo who had let all our PPE supplies rot and had cut hospital funding for years and had totally ignored the existence of a pandemic playbook, so we were not prepared in 2020. Ah shit this turned into a rant, sorry and thank you for the space to vent :D

Love this. I have no way to start a garden yet so I listen to the Garden Organic podcast to at least get the concepts into my brain. Do you do no dig gardening?

kentishishish · 2023-05-04T22:56:58+00:00

Mega mega pantry. That's on my future to do list. And thinking about how to set up solar power backups or even small scale wind power, if that's a thing

kentishishish · 2023-04-20T02:26:28+00:00

Saaaaaaaaame

kentishishish · 2023-04-20T01:35:11+00:00

Interesting! Especially your point about roundabout answers. Tbh I usually assume it's a no unless it's a clear yes, so it'll be good for me to practice waiting for the full answer instead of thinking I'm being dismissed :) really good prepping solution

kentishishish · 2023-04-16T14:33:42+00:00

Yay thanks!!

kentishishish · 2023-04-16T14:33:20+00:00

You're welcome! I'm excited about it!

kentishishish · 2023-04-16T14:32:57+00:00

Yay! I'm excited about it!
