Stop using crutches. All too often I see hopeless over-dependent people. If you find yourself unable to function on a daily basis without some concoction of drugs/chemicals/food, I want you to stop everything you are doing and self reflect. Think about it this way, we all know how anabolic steroids take over your bodies' natural testosterone production; your body can no longer produce the hormone and thus you depend on the steroids for testosterone. You can apply this to virtually anything. Antidepressants take over your dopamine and seratonin production, eye glasses cause eye muscle degeneration, caffeine hijacks your adrenaline production, elevators and escalators hijack your gains ect ect. Fuel your body with vitamins and nutrition, work out, sleep 8hrs every night and wake up early white man! Now is not the time to falter, you will be amazed at what you can achieve, stop using crutches. And DO NOT take that vaccine
For those of you growing tomatoes in hot environments you may notice that the leaves may be curling as a response to heat stress. This can affect crop yields.
There are also a few other causes related to environmental factors that cause this such as low/high moisture and nitrogen imbalance.

Shade cloths can help mitigate the sudden heat stress when temperatures start to rise.
If you do live around an environment with hot summers, there are varieties specially designed to react better to heat. Most modern high yield varieties were developed based of the Rutgers (new jersey) tomato so keep that in mind.

Cutting. You need a tool that can cut, in order to prepare fires, build shelters, make traps, defend yourself, process game, and make tools. A bushcrafter prides themselves in what they can do with their knife, and a hiker or camper realizes even opening a mylar food package is tough without one. Knife skills are the foundation of all your other abilities.
Notice that all knives for bushcraft look very similar in blade length, design, and handle. It works. Sometimes you just have a folding knife or multitool, and in a pinch they will get you by. But the chance of failure and injury is higher when batonning or making a through hole. 4-5 inches, with a drop point blade. Avoid serrations or combo blades or anything else.
To know what you want in a blade, start with a mora or bps knife, since they're cheap, and use it. The Golden rule is to make a try stick, and that will quickly teach you if the blade will work for survival or bushcraft or not.

Odd method of removing deer skin. If you have a decent air compressor, give it a shot
As far as tools go, some common advice has been to buy cheap versions of it and then replace whatever breaks.
There's good and bad to this.
The good part is after getting some tool experience under your belt, you'll know what you want out of a tool. Also you may find that whatever tool you bought doesn't really get as much use as you thought it would and the heavy duty pro edition wasn't really necessary.
The downside is that worst case scenario you may be buying the tool twice in the end, and also cheaper tools sometimes lack ergonomics.
Loyalists love to preach the virtues of whatever their favorite brand is. They're all just the same variations of the same designs with Chinese materials in the end, with some exceptions.
However, the one constant I've found that is pretty much a solid rule at this point is that you'll always get quality out of Japanese or American made tools. I'm not talking the brands like big yellow or even makita (although you can get made in japan JDM if you go to amazon.co.jp) that pretend to be from these countries, yet make their shit in China. Even tool truck brands like Snap-on pretend to be American made and yet just slap their sticker on Chinese crap and have been caught doing it.
What you want is REAL USA and Japanese tools made in those countries with MATERIALS from those countries.
There are a few companies that still produce domestically (mostly hand tools), but you'll be paying $50 instead of $15. The decision is up to you whether that's worth it or not.
Some things simply can't be bought new anymore domestically produced. For those, I'd suggest hitting up estate sales and garage sales. Personally I've picked up some really nice 1970s era stuff this way. If it's really worth it to you to get ahold of some quality shit, bearings can be swapped on worn USDM tools as well as electrical contacts.
All this just depends on how far you're willing to go or what your needs are, but just bear in mind chinese produced tools will always have lower quality materials than the tool company requested as Chinese like to lie about material quality or ship metal with a few good pieces on top and the rest shit in order to trick people.

If you find yourself concerned with the censorship of right wing views on the internet, why? Why concern ourselves with a medium that has served little purpose other than to pacify and demoralize our people? Sure, the internet is a fantastic medium to share information and self educate, but I think its true use is something much darker. Social media is strangulating our cause by hijacking emotions and the social ladder. 30 years ago, you had to test your beliefs and ideas against real people face to face. If you said something offensive, you had to be able to back it up with force or facts. Now, we have found ourselves unmotivated and unwilling to face reality, instead substituting the social ladder with social media. It has allowed our trust to deteriorate, our groups infiltrated and false gods constructed. We must start building communities through real-world hard-work and socializing. Using the internet alone to fight our battles will leave us fractured and weak, on their terms. Instead of focusing on social media, I challenge all of you to focus on making yourself physically fit, buying land and starting a family. Dont let life slip by because the internet was easier.

I’m riding through the countryside today and looking at farms and small homesteads. Opsec is the word. From the perspective of a hungry person walking down the highway, how much of your stuff is visible? Can you even know if someone cuts the fence by the road and leads a calf away? Is you garden closer to the road than your house? How much attention will your ATV parked on the side of the house attract?
Food for thought. Walk down the road in front of your house and see what it looks like from a “different” perspective.
