I used a 5 gallon black square bucket off Amazon. I added a 3 gallon black bucket full of dry beans and canned veggies. That changes the diet from a “keep alive” to a “keep alive & healthy” diet. Anyway now I have 12 of both. Took me a bit to put together but started as soon as trump was elected.

YES! That’s how you start your 12 mo. emergency stash. One 20 lb bag of rice at a time. They’re $12-$16 up here in Alaska. I put one bag in a bucket with canned spam, tuna, chicken. Add jolly ranchers, vitamins, tiny can openers, lighters, lifestraws & done! That’s 1 mo. for 4 (“keep alive” diet).

I bet Justice Kavanaugh is so proud of how his Kavanaugh Stops are going. Let’s see, Dredd Scott, Kavanaugh Stops, Separate But Equal — seems like he’s the only justice to sneak his name into common everyday usage when describing a racist unconstitutional action and court decision. Congrats!

They know they’re the “brains” behind the next attempt at holocaust. It’s their plan to get the U.S. population down to 100 million “white” people. And they know justice will be coming for them. Yavin’s already talking about leaving the U.S.

Yeah, at some stores I’ve noticed you can see it at self-checkout, the SNAP total compiling next to the cash total. And that’s for everyone.

I had to explain to my son why there are no actual “food stamps” any more, just like there are no more free lunch punch cards for the poor kids at his school. He was incredulous. “People would bully them because they were poor???”

Gotta say, PTSD had me hard today, so I spent it moving furniture and making upgrades (see below). But then I tune in (it’s about 8pm Alaska time) and the off-year election results are AMAZING! Feel so good now. I bet I even sleep tonight!

From Police Officer to Protester
America’s cops must take a stand for democracy, now.
NEW: "When cops, or in my case retired cops, return to the streets, not holding the line against protesters, but standing with them, it’s a sign that the times have gotten truly dangerous."

AOC: "The Supreme Court has given Trump a blank check to continue to commit crimes while in office. So we cannot underestimate the threat and danger of this moment, but we cannot respond to that threat with cowardice."

Khaki cargo nazis. There’s something about — how it all circles back. The khaki-clad Brits invented the camps to “concentrate” Boer women and children in one location, but tons died. The nazis said “Great!” and stole the name, but used it to kill. And now’s our turn. Disgusted with us right now.

To build upon the trivia: the term comes from the French. The center of their artillery signs had a white dot, a "point blanc." Aiming at the "point blanc" meant you were aiming the gun directly at the target without adjusting upwards for gravity.
