    Nothing anymore, or perhaps just that I buy my TP by the case from Costco, LoL

    A couple weeks ago I found some unexpected puddles in my basement, and tracked it to my emergency water supply. A couple plastic jugs that expired in 2010 spontaneously started leaking.

    I understand that’s not a good long term solution to water, but also prepping apparently takes more going maintenance than I’m motivated for.

      I think being aware of the ongoing maintenance (and one’s ability to do it) still feels productive in a prepping sense. It’s sort of like meta-prepping? Like, I’d expect that in a disaster, your knowledge would be helpful in organising within your community. Certainly you’d fare better than me, as someone who has been fortunate enough to never have to consider emergency supplies.
