Both provide security. I admit that tarp is a stretch

Then why are you haphazardly including a survival guide inside it that barely makes sense?

I would break it up a little bit.

Maybe I'll have to change things around in a v3

What do you think would be a good section for tarp?

Delete the gear shit entirely and just stick to the timeline info you've got.

Nonono

Two entirely different focuses.

Its bundled into one, that's sort of the idea

If people dont want to opt into the schizo shit, I can sell the preparedness section

Call it good for marketing

Your item list is incoherent and missing lots of shit.

Just get rid of it.

I know

Not getting rid of it

But I'd be happy to take recommendations for additions to it

Or replace some shit in it

Take in mind, that this preparedness section is probably for a city goer who doesn't even know the word preparedness

You need to identify what you're wanting to accomplish before assigning the situation a list of items.

Just about anything in there might be fine

Start with that and do it over.

I wanted to create a basic guide, and I did

A basic guide that directs people towards spending their money whimsically on hundreds of cans of food instead of other things might not be as helpful as you think.

I have other sections

Define the scenario before defining the needs.

We're coming up on some severe food shortages

Not the other way around.

That's the scenario

bugging in with my palette of canned food and tarp.

yep

Tarp for rainwater

In a city flat

If they turn water off

The system has no interest in turning off everyone's water and electricity.

They want you returning to normal product consumption as soon as possible.

Right...

Returning to the norm is what the established powers want.

But there's a chance that it does get shut off for other reasons

Civil society breaking down for example

Tell me some reasons the water would get shut off from this current happening.

The water wasn't shutoff in weimar germany during the street fighting.
