"Miner’s Mint Beard Oil is an all-natural, hand crafted beard oil with a substantial musky, masculine aroma with hints of refreshing spearmint and sweet, heady bourbon. One of our most popular fragrances, that harkens back to more traditional men’s cologne, without the chemicals. It softens and moisturizes your beard, and helps make your beard more manageable. Jojoba and argan also moisturize the skin beneath your beard to prevent and repair itchy, flakey skin."

to me this is unspeakably badas s

You’re not wrong. Also where do these people live that they need all that? Car kit? Looks more like kidnap/rape kit to me.

And that ‘get home bag’. Home from where? It’s like an agents bag from The Division or something. gently caress me.

The entire “prepping” scene consists of pudgy white guys in IT jobs who fantasize about society collapsing so they can enact their fantasies about killing zombies/poors/brown people.

Mad props to all the “tactical” gear suppliers for figuring out how to turn middle-class anxiety into loads of cash. These people will buy literal scrap metal as long as it’s painted black and sold as a “tactical stealth EDC tool”.

I think the 'get home' thing is a reference to https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17085384-going-home

Google image searching 'everyday carry" is a fascinating glimpse into the pockets of paranoid white people. So many "field notes". Sooooooooooo many glocks.
A "tactical pen" may be the handiest thing ever made but I'll never know, because on principle, i'm not going to own something called a "tactical pen". Also here's a fun game: Count how many items in those piles of matte black painted objects have actual wear on them from being used. Or how many of those tanto blade knives have marks from being sharpened and kept sharp.

My favorite i've seen was some guy including a sling he made to keep in his bag (without ammo for it because he'd "just use rocks") in case he ever got stranded and needed to hunt his supper. Not a slingshot, a sling. What David slew Goliath with.

Trap sprung (?) but finding a good beard oil really made a difference during the months I grow a beard. I'd genuinely recommend trying it at least once.

I know I keep owning myself in this thread, but pure argan oil is half the price of that, does all of the same poo poo except make your beard stink.

A knife you sharpen yourself shouldn't have marks since you tape off the part you're not sharpening. :colbert:

Only edc that seemed sensible was Adam Savage's no knife, mostly just a flashlight, a pen, and a pocketbook for notes and quick diagrams. The edc community can gently caress off though. Google occasionally recommends me posts from r/edc and ignoring the fact that there's always one or more handguns, there's also apparently loads of teenaged boys who walk around with $120+ pocket knives every day.

I'm mostly just paranoid cause there's some scuffs on the bevel of one of my knives from when I was first learning to sharpen. If you freehand it, then it probably shouldn't be a concern at all.

Well he needs ammo for his sling made from the empty med bag or maybe the belt? Or maybe they’re backup screwdrivers?

I wonder if the “in memory of our...” bracelet is marketed to also cure nausea.
