I've had a couple of friends ask me if I'm prepping.

Prepping for what?

I see the UK is doing a Be Prepared campaign and Fucking Dan Bongino said something on a podcast. What's that about?

I haven't crunched the numbers exactly, but I have six 12-packs of canned, purified water. I'd guess I have about 50-60 packs of dry, shelf stable goods like rice packs and mac-and-cheese, but also have a bulk pack of twelve jars of peanut butter that I bought solely to keep in case of some unimaginable cataclysm.

So yeah, not prepper level, but definitely stocked adequately for any short-term disruptions.

I started building up my pantry after 'Liberation Day', because I was concerned supply chain disruptions would get worse and more frequent.

    Ok. That sounds totally reasonable. When you said over a month, i thought you had one of those MRE barrels from Costco. We usually have a case of water and a case of bubbly water cans in the garage and we could probably live for 4 weeks if we had effectivity to keep things frozen. We're bad about throwing stuff into the garage freezer and forgetting it's there - mostly chicken nuggets, French fries, pizza. Cucumbers, tomatillos, and hatch peppers are growing right now.
