There is a point where this just becomes psychotic stockpiling aka "prepping" which is a form of hoarding but with tinges of escapist/messianic fantasy involved.

Protip: just because you're the last man alive doesn't mean you'll get the princess. There will always be someone stronger, with more friends, and more resources than you. He will take the princess. And your beans.

>>5769602
It depends. Did you grow the beans yourself? Do you have a grain mill or at least a coffee grinder to turn it into bean flour and rice flour? Is it polished fortified white rice or Lundberg-type whole rice? Are those containers plastic or glass?

-I grow my own legumes, but trade and sell most of it to family and neighbors.
-I store them in glass with metal lids and use a cheap vacuum sealer so they don't stink like plastic and moths can never ever squeeze in through the lids if sometime in the future pressure from being stacked warps the plastic and makes a tiny opening.
-The only rice I get is whole grain from Lundberg. (because so flavorful!)
-I have a small cheap grain mill so I can turn the legumes and rice into flour/meal.

I highly recommend getting a grinder of some kind to make flours. I didn't need to grow legumes this season since I have tons from last season. Next season I'll be growing more though. Bean cake and bean bread is awesome,

Bean Cake Recipe

1/2 Cup of dry, whole Black Beans
1/2 Cup of dry, whole Red Kidney Beans
3 Teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
2 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
3 Eggs
3 Tablespoons Soft/Melted Butter
2/3 Cup Whole Milk

Use a grain mill/coffee grinder/mortar and pestle to mill all the beans into a flour or meal. It can be a bit more coarse than cornmeal (like grits) or finer like flour.

Mix all ingredients well. Pour batter into a buttered, hot cast iron skillet. Bake in the oven at 350F until golden brown on top and it has pulled away from the side.

Any type of dry bean or mixture of dry beans can be used for this recipe.

>pic from "Doomsday Bunkers/Doomsday Preppers"

Those are sensationalist, social propaganda shows aimed to ingrain people with the notion that preparing for any possible "disaster" should be looked down on. They even have the people on the show act far more stupid than they normally would and even give them money to go buy more shit on camera.

Real world prepping is something everyone should do. The level of possible "disaster" can be anything from losing your job for 3 weeks to a meteor strike wiping out most of the planet's population and anything in between. Even something as simple as one person in a married couple losing their job can throw the entire household out of whack financially to the point where they end up on the street or living with someone else. Preparing for stuff like this is key to not having a disaster in the first place when SHTF.

I always keep 6 months of non-perishable food on my shelves. It is food I eat nearly every day and stays rotated. It isn't weird MREs and granola bars. I don't like or eat that stuff. Why would I? So, I grow, can, and preserve my own foods and bulk foods from the store. It is easy and super cheap for me to do. I have a really wide variety of food.

I have backup power, various backup heat/cooling sources, my own water well, garden, chickens, etc. Many times over the past decades I've had to go without grid-tied power for weeks at a time due natural disasters wiping out power lines. My neighbors relied on me to feed them because they did not have enough food and clean water and roads were covered in 4-6 feet of snow that rarely happens.

The best prepper knows their neighbors and has social systems in place to help each other with.

If you are living in a neighborhood like that then you have some pretty serious issues you need to be addressing right now.

You should know every neighbor by name, talk with them often, and all have a local support system and plan in place for if/when a disaster occurs. That can be anything from canned food for a family in temporary need to a shelter everyone can hide in during a mortar attack to where the best place to go and meet up during a flood.

Isolationism is just as bad as relying solely on your government.

I know all my neighbors rather well. Some of them were problem people. They are no longer problem people. Getting to know people and they knowing you is where you start. When you are honest with them, look them in the eye, and tell them that you got their back if something comes down in the neighborhood you start the change at that point on.

Everyone needs to know that your neighbor's problem is also your problem.

See, that shows where your head is. Those things you listed are what you would do so you project those things onto me/us.

The pedo was never tried or convicted. You don't need to bully people. You can "lure" people with a positive mindset and positive actions. It's like they choose to climb a mountain and you show them there's a tunnel through the mountain. So they choose the tunnel because it suits them better.

For someone with his mindset, it's about community and safety. You can disagree with his methods but this is the kind of person who makes for a good community leader when disaster happens.
The most dangerous thing in neighborhoods in the case of disaster isn't the natural event itself when you're prepared with food, water, power, etc. The people are the most dangerous thing and if you don't know whether or not someone will try to fuck you over, you have a big question mark around the most unpredictable aspect of any disaster.

There was a guy on /tv/ a couple years ago who owns an island. He was approached by the people from the TV show.

The guy in that photo is a convicted felon. He was on TV for Doomsday Preppers showing off his firearms and shown shooting them. One of the charges was phishing for sex with a minor. He went back to jail because of the TV show and since he moved he did register as a sex offender which could get him even more time.

You can't tell me, the researchers of the show didn't know he was a convicted felon. All that shit is setup, staged, and everything else. Like all reality TV shows. They purposely pick the fucking loons because TV zombies want to see that shit. They don't want to see normal people prepping for normal shit like mother nature.

I have no problem with having friends but if you tell anyone about your stockpile of oats, eventually bad people find out about it (theoretical disaster scenario) and take advantage of you. this is an absolute NO NO, you can't let other people know.

if you really really want a strong sense of community for whatever reason you have and you "THINK" you can really trust your neighbors, thats up to you, I hope you have nice neighbors if theoretically speaking things ever get tough, and I hope that we are never in a difficult situation. the most important and best thing is that hopefully a person that prepares by saving up a secret box of oats and beans, never ever has to use them in the first place.

we have to prepare, and we hope nothing bad ever happens.

You're missing the entire point. You are thinking from an isolationist perspective. You think you are alone standing there with a horde of food saying "hey everyone, I have food it you think you need it!" one day.

Instead, you AND your neighbors actually get together months or years in advance, at least once every 2 months to adjust your plans for any "event" and during the other times you are not planning you are just maintaining relations with them. Then when SHTF happens all of you band together like clock work to prevent further disaster. Including what to do if someone outside your neighborhood wants to rob you or anyone else.

isolation = death in SHTF situations
community = life in SHTF situations

Thinking any other way is extremely naive and quite detrimental to you and society as a whole. You essentially create a self-fulfilling prophecy.

This comes from some one who has been prepping as a way of life with my neighbors for decades now and there's around 50 of us that comprises our entire small valley section.
