    Plot twist: the aliens’ one weakness is lavender oil.

      The Signs school of Chekhov’s gun. Water. More water. Water everywhere! Oh no! Aliens! I wonder what their weakness is 😉

      Is that what it says? I couldn’t read it and thought it said lemonade.

    The essential SUPPLIES not the essential oils!

    In the event of an apocalypse and you do happen to pack a great bag of actual essentials … someone bigger stronger and with a gun is going to murder you for it.

        A gun would add some serious weight to your pack, which would often mean you don’t cover ground as easily.

        It’d be fun to see an apocalypse where everyone packed a gun to steal from everyone else but no one packed any food.

          I’m pretty sure this describes some areas in the US.

            Are they? I’ll admit, my experience is limited but it’s seemed to me even pistols are a considerable weight, especially compared to other survival/camping supplies.

              Depends what you consider considerable. For example Glock G19 is 855 g (30.16 oz) with a full magazine, to me that doesn’t seem much. Especially if you consider how valuable of a tool it could be. Hopefully you’d have at least twice that weight in water alone.

              Yeah, if you’ve ever done some serious hiking you know you wouldn’t want to haul around a gun. Also, imagine being in a shootout while wearing a massive backpack.

              1.5 lbs, loaded, on average. Even I overestimated by quite a lot but it still wouldn’t have made a major difference.

              How the hell heavy did you think guns were? Were you adding on the mental weight of being able to easily take a life? Because that traditionally does convert to mass very readily.

    Well, there aren’t any working toilets anymore

    Maybe this will help with the smell
