Hypothetically, If I'm looking for a mail-order bride:

  • Are there any reputable websites I should check out?

  • Is this arrangement typically done through a sort-of broker-esc company?

  • Or is it more unstructured and casual?... meeting in a chatroom, etc.

My biggest fear is that I would somehow get involved in the world of sex slavery. I wouldn't want to support an organization that fostered that.

  • How did you know you weren't being led into a trap?

I have a 10.5k sq ft lot and am setting up a high maintenance yard. Lots of veggies and berries. 6ish fruit trees. Then theres the flowers and native gardens that I'm starting.. every spring, I go hard and get the yard ready: planting, more boxes, more beds, tilling...

Then every fall is firewood season. I hustle firewood on the side and this just kills me physically. That's when the yard starts to suffer. Right now, we have a fig tree out back that I've completely ignored... probably a billion wasted figs on it.

Oh wow. I've never been to death valley and even lived in California for about a year... I always wanted to go on a brutal march there.

I suspect that in a natural disaster scenario a lot of the necessary survival skills would be different... I think escaping the initial danger would be a huge factor. Maybe how to evacuate under tough situations... generally lots of these types of things can be planned for ahead of time to really help increase the odds of success... in a prolonged situation, avoiding hypothermia and cholera... what I really worry about is how other people will react. The monster kinda comes out when people lose everything, are hungry, and no longer feel safe.

Makes me wonder about your plan for when the zombers attack.

To be fair, he's getting fuckin rich, allegedly. So, I gamble he also cares about money.
