Little habits like these are so important!
In our daily routines, it's crucial to consider "what if's" & plan accordingly. For example, we ensure our pets' water dishes are filled before we leave the house so they have enough water until help arrives if something unexpected happens to us. What other small what if’s should we all plan for?

This.
To have any hope of surviving and thriving amidst collapse, we must liberate ourselves (and each other) from the harmful habits we’ve been taught since birth, including our food choices. 🧵(1/5)

Have you created one yet?
We don’t like thinking about emergencies: accidents, sudden illness, even state violence. But if something happens, you want others to be able to help. Make an emergency info list for your fridge: your contacts, key family info, who has house keys, who cares for your animals/kids, executor, etc.

Part of #CollapseResilience is learning new skills. We’ve enjoyed the book Fermenter: DIY Fermentation for Vegan Fare by Aaron Adams & Liz Crain. They do a great job of covering basic ingredients, equipment, and techniques. And the book includes a variety of interesting recipes. Give it a skim!

Part of #CollapseResilience is reducing risk. Animal farming is not only cruel to animals, but it’s a major driver of zoonotic disease, an intensive user/polluter of water & land, & a leading force behind ecological collapse—from deforestation to biodiversity loss to the climate crisis.🧵 (1/2)

Mutual aid and liberation—for humans and nonhuman animals—are key to collapse resilience. Where have you seen (or participated in) meaningful mutual aid projects?✋🐾🌍💚

Masking saves lives and protects health ❤️
Lots of folks are traveling & gathering this week—prime time for COVID, flu & other bugs to spread. Vaccines, clean air, testing & staying home when sick all help & masking remains one of the simplest, strongest tools. Masks save lives! Mask up to protect yourself & others. 😷💚

This week kicks off a firestorm of overconsumption. Even “shop local” assumes unsustainable levels of consumption. Our choices either support compassion, justice & resilience—or fuel exploitation.
#CollapseResilience means living in ways that do the most good/least harm for all beings.

Do you have a little stash of cash?
Having cash on hand can be essential in a ATM/banking glitches, economic shocks, civil unrest, sudden evacuations, etc. A safely stored small reserve—esp. in small bills—reduces vulnerability & boosts your ability to help yourself & others. Save a bit/month until you reach a useful amount.✋ 🐾 🌍 💚

It’s heartening to see folks stepping up to support neighbors facing food insecurity. Our community’s Resilience & Resistance Team started a little free food pantry—open for anyone to donate or take food for humans or animals. Periodically we'll take what’s left to local pantries. #MutualAid

Do you know where your shut offs are?
Emergencies move fast. Knowing how to shut off your gas, water & electricity—and having the tools to do it—can prevent a crisis from getting worse.
Find your shutoff points, learn the steps & ensure everyone in your home knows them. This simple skill is a powerful part of #CollapseResilience.

Have you switched yet?
Big banks fund fossil fuel projects, factory farming, wars, gentrification, authoritarian politicians, etc., that harm people, animals & the planet & accelerate collapse.
Switch to a credit union or community development bank to help better protect your money & invest in your community. 🧵 (1/2)

Have you used 5 Calls yet?
Recent election results are heartening—but #CollapseResilience means staying engaged & pressuring officials to do much much better.
📞 5 Calls (5Calls.org) makes it easy to contact your federal legislators w/ scripts & tools. I spend 5–10 mins a few times a week speaking up for the vulnerable. ✋🐾🌍💚

Stock a portable food bin for when you have to evacuate fast. Ours has vegan, shelf-stable foods--granola, dried fruit, nuts, pouched meals--enough for 4 days for 2. Keep an inventory inside & expiration dates in your calendar to swap items out. Stock foods you actually like & do one for your pets.

Even w/ little money or space, a second freezer can be a powerful #CollapseResilience tool. Our chest freezer doubles as a prep space/drying rack and lets us save money, cut waste, eat better & store food for security, mutual aid, or barter.

This one was a tough one for us, but we've been paid streaming-free for some time now, and can't imagine going back. Yet another way to take back our power and hit the greedy corps where it hurts them.
#CollapseResilience Challenge: Cancel your paid streaming & take back your power. Corporations rely on our complicity. Save $, reduce energy, support libraries/community efforts & spend more time on meaningful living. What will you do w/ your extra time & money?✋ 🐾 🌍 💚

The newsletter from agricultural producer news site WATT Poultry is now a primary source of my anxiety. H5N1 is exploding in North American poultry. Every day, a headline like this.
But no human cases. Either there aren't any or there's no testing. Given CDC's dismantling, I can guess.

Where have you found nooks and crannies to store essentials for Collapse Resilience?
A friend turned a closet into essential food storage. We’ve added shelves in odd spaces, thrifted a pantry & swapped a treadmill for a chest freezer. Even small homes have hidden storage spots for #CollapseResilience: closets, walls, under beds. Scan your home for options & tell us what you find.
