Society Is Collapsing. The Signs Are All Around Us.
A modern societal collapse isn’t the same as the various civilizational collapses of historical empires. The world is different now, interconnected and interdependent, and the days when one nation can continue to survive without other nations are long gone.
No, a modern collapse refers to the idea that global human civilization and its cultural identity will either become primitive or disappear completely. While no one knows for sure when, or exactly how, global society will collapse, there are shocking signs that raise the question of whether we have passed the point of no return.
Bug Out Vehicle For The Collapse Of Civilization
It will happen suddenly… One minute you will be sitting in your living room, watching TV perhaps, and then the alarm goes out. That familiar old government warning starts flashing on the TV, but this time it is no drill, and the time to bug out for good has come. Whatever it is, deadly viral pandemic, ICBMs about to launch, dogs and cats living together… doesn’t matter. It is time to get the hell out
A Wasteland Christmas
Merry Christmas From The Wasteland! Hello all my Wasteland friends and fellow collapsniks! It’s Christmas time and the world could come to an end at any moment, but before it does, I would like to give a little something back to some lucky future Wastelander out there.

The next global pandemic is right around the corner. H5N1 gains evolutionary ground every day, and while scientists strive mightily to keep up, governments around the world are woefully unprepared and unheeding of the dire reality.
Apocalypse Meow! (Bugging Out With Cats)
Most people prefer not to think about the worst-case scenarios in their lives, but for us as collapse preppers that is exactly what we have to do. And that doesn’t just mean for ourselves but for our family members as well. All family members. So, when it comes to making sure our animal companions are safely evacuated in the inevitable bug out, there’s no time like the present to prepare! Here are my tips for bugging out with cats after a collapse event.
Mutual Assistance Groups (And Why You Need One)
In any true societal collapse scenario, the adage “there is strength in numbers” rings truer than ever. Survival becomes a far more attainable goal when you have allies to share the load. That’s why forming a Mutual Assistance Group is a prudent step for ensuring you have a dependable support system in place to see you through into the post-collapse world.
In this article, I take a look at what a Mutual Assistance Group is, and how such groups formed to prepare for collapse differ from the traditional MAGs. In preparation for surviving the collapse of civilization, it becomes necessary to broaden your horizons and make new like-minded friends who can contribute to your survival network. In the wild, the lone wolf starves, but the pack survives…
Predictions for a world on the brink
This is a reprint of an article post I made on Reddit shortly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine back in February of 2022. Originally I had written this as an analysis of the motivations behind the war, and the implications of it for world peace. Having researched the situation and all the surrounding factors, I came to a series of conclusions that, should one look back on them now, seem weirdly prophetic. Much of that original post would go on to be expanded on in the book that I wrote shortly thereafter. Here today, I am simply reprinting that original post, linked and unaltered, so that my readers who are not on Reddit can get an idea of where my thinking originated.
Given that my original post so accurately, and frighteningly, predicted the current actions by Iran and her proxies, and also aspects of the current U.S. political developments, I am becoming even more confident in the rest of the predictions I laid down in that fateful post. And that is not a good thing…
So, here it is, unedited other than a couple spelling corrections and the additions of subheadings to try and sort out some of the jumbled mess it was the day I wrote it…
9 Places to Avoid After SHTF
Knowing where to stay away from can be just as critical as knowing where to go after an SHTF event. When you and your family’s life is on the line, staying away from trouble spots that expose you to unnecessary risk has to be a priority. What we are facing is a total societal collapse. While the unprepared denizens of your city become threats to themselves due to ignorance, a collapse prepper always thinks through their actions beforehand and evaluates their environment knowing that one poor decision could be their last. Today, we are going to cover 9 places you must avoid when the shit starts to hit the fan…
