A sustainable, self-sufficient, climate-change-ready farm commune way out somewhere, and I probably wouldn't invite myself if I'm being perfectly honest. Find some very smart live-off-the-land types.

Some mashup of Whole Earth Catalog + Wikipedia, as a hedge. How-to for every tool and process. When political order breaks down at large scales, you're forced to reimplement institutions at smaller scales. DIY-or-die.

I think retirement is now a forever dead fever dream. Millenials dont hire old people so I need to hurry up and learn some kind of subsistence farming. That or get myself arrested when I'm too old so I'll have somewhere to live and some food
