A few sites I've long found helpful, and bear revisiting in these interesting days: not only because of their DiY how-to's, but ALSO because of their economic outlooks as well.
Investing at the local/homestead level, LYSOL is "king" at the moment - next week, it might ammo! I learned my appreciation for "junk silver" from Survivalblog 14 years ago, and have been a silver bug ever since.
I find something useful each day at them - feel free to add onto this list with other good sites that you're aware of.
#1)![[Image: SB-Blog-Header-1.jpg]](https://survivalblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/SB-Blog-Header-1.jpg)
The ORIGINAL, I discovered https://survivalblog.com/ during the economic downturn that started in 2006. Prepping, gardening, retreat reality, investing, firearms & other weapon-craft, cooking, animal husbandry, faith, history, the Constitution - you NAME it, it's BEEN covered here! The site search engine is EXTREMELY easy to use (I can easily find the few articles I've written - even from years ago - with few search-words), and as we're all stuck at home right now, some "catch-up" reading is easy enough to do! J.W. Rawles - owner/proprietor of the website, is also the author of the best-selling survivalist novel, "Patriots."

I discovered George's site - https://urbansurvival.com/ - about '06 as well, and while I haven't been as FREQUENT a reader of late, I have been re-visiting his site since MEDIA PANDEMONIUM VIRUS broke out. George has some FASCINATING socio/economic insights to the times, and while not QUITE the "character" of say, Alex Jones, he does 'brush the wall' from time to time, in NASCAR parlance.
He is ALSO a "practice-what-you-preacher" sort, with his prepping/homestead setup in west TX. This site WILL may you examine the signs o' the times, in an out-of-the-box fashion, and making sure the brain is your MOST focused piece of equipment, ain't a bad thing...

The title is pretty self-explanatory. A constantly scrolling worldwide update - http://outbreaks.globalincidentmap.com/ - the map can also be zoomed - right down to PA, your SECTOR, and even your NEIGHBORHOOD - to see whether the neighbors have MEDIA PANDEMONIUM VIRUS, or if Zeds are finally rising!![[Image: zombie.gif]](http://www.militaryfirearm.com/Forum/images/smilies/zombie.gif)

The mother site to #3 - http://www.globalincidentmap.com/ - I learned of this site around 2006 as well. Whether it's an industrial accident, terrorist attack, nuclear power plant meltdown, natural disaster, plane crash - you NAME it; it'll be marked here, and details (as they are available, and oftentimes AHEAD of the lamestream media) provided!

LOVE this guy - I've actually visited him at his home and had pizza with him and his kids! If you're still on POOFA, you probably know him as "Streaker69," but he actually has a useful side, too.
I found his website - http://www.jedidiahstolzfus.com/ - a few years back (after I'd visited him), and found that his mad skillz were finally on-line (he was re-purposing a server cabinet, the day I dropped in!). If the "new normal" ends up looking a LOT like 1930
... "re-purposing/refurnishing," will become the new 'hotness' for us all!
Hopefully these will prove as useful to you, as they have to me. Feel free to add some more, and a brief description for the rest of us.
