Gunkanjima Island - Nagasaki, Japan .

Once the most densely populated place in the world, this island is now a ghost town.

FEW PLACES IN THE WORLD have a history as odd, or as poignant as Gunkanjima’s.

The tiny, fortress-like island lies just off the coast of Nagasaki. The island is ringed by a seawall, covered in tightly packed buildings, and entirely abandoned - a ghost town that has been completely uninhabited for more than forty years. In the early 1900s, Gunkanjima was developed by the Mitsubishi Corporation, which believed - correctly - that the island was sitting on a rich submarine coal deposit.

For almost the next hundred years, the mine grew deeper and longer, stretching out under the seabed to harvest the coal that was powering Japan’s industrial expansion.

By 1941, the island, less than one square kilometer in area, was producing 400,000 tonnes of coal per year.

And many of those working slavishly in the undersea mine were forced laborers from Korea.

Even more remarkable than the mine was the city that had grown up around it.

To accommodate the miners, ten-story apartment complexes were built up on the tiny rock - a high-rise maze linked together by courtyards, corridors, and stairs. There were schools, restaurants, and gaming houses, all encircled by the protective seawall.

The island became known as “Midori nashi Shima,” the island without green.

Amazingly, by the mid-1950s, it housed almost six thousand people, giving it the highest population density the world has ever known. And then the coal ran out.

Mitsubishi closed the mine, everyone left, and this island city was abandoned, left to revert back to nature.

The apartments began to crumble, and for the first time, in the barren courtyards, green things started to grow. Broken glass and old newspapers blew over the streets. The sea-breeze whistled through the windows.

Now, fifty years later, the island is exactly as it was just after Mitsubishi left. A ghost town in the middle of the sea.

Something to understand about my family (and by extension myself) is that we come from an apparent cowboy dynasty. Idk how far back that legacy goes, but I know my grandpa and great grandpa on all sides of my family were raised on farms with cows, riding horses, hunting, branding cattle, milking in the dark morning, and beating the shit out of people in fist fights over minor grievances because the alternative was counting tumbleweeds and praying.

We���ve escaped the confines of cowboydom in a physical sense, but the cowboy heart is genetic because we’re still a bunch of easily bored, rough-and-tumble, ‘git ‘er done��� hicks on the inside. I say it’s important to know about me and mine mostly because it helps y’all understand why we tell mildly embellished, patently unhinged stories about our lives all the time. Also because it explains why I have a Red Dawn-inspired bugout kit in my back room.

[physalian]

Having a bug-out bag came in use yesterday so I thought I’d recirculate the benefits of having one. It’s a pre-packed backpack or travel bag that is ready to go in emergencies.

I first made mine after a different narcissistic roommate made me too afraid to go home after I insulted his ego, to the point where I had my friend guard the house in the front yard so I could run in, grab what I needed to stay overnight somewhere, and leave.

I resolved to never be unprepared again, and am relived to say that while the bag hasn’t been useful for its intended purpose, having it in my car has saved me on beach trips, hurricane evacuations, and other overnight trips where I otherwise forgot something at home.

It sits in the trunk of my car and does take up a fair bit of space, but I’m never lacking for space in my car anyway.

Inside:

Cash

Pens/stationery

Multitool

Separate switchblade

First aid kit

Batteries

Multiple chargers

Flashlight

3 outfits, 2 warm, 1 cold (Florida)

Assorted underclothes

Sweatshirt

Bathing suit

Toiletries

Bath towel

1 closed and 1 open-toed pair of shoes

Hat

Sunscreen

Sandwich/grocery bags

Hair ties/brush/clips

I do have to toss some things every now and then as they degrade in the Florida heat, but most of the toiletries were picked up in the travel aisle for cheap. I keep mine in my car but you don’t have to.

If I could safely keep pet food for my cats with it, I would, but again, the heat.

Stay safe out there!

OP is entirely correct that you need to be prepared for less glamorous types of bugging out. Not everything is going to be action/spy movies; it's more likely you'll be one of the people on the freeway.

And be prepared to work together with other people. Community care is the only way to survive any emergency.

I recommend bringing a deck of cards (uno if you have kids) so you have something to do in the downtime you will inevitably have.

Something like baby wipes are great in an emergency, especially when stuck in a car. My sister also introduced me to Scrubzz, wash rags that have soap and shampoo in them. You just get them wet and wash yourself, but you don't need to rinse.

If you have pets, make sure you bring them some toys as well as their food. I also have a leash for my cat so she doesn't have to stay in a carrier if we need to travel a long time.

And I know you might not like it, but masks and replacement filters are key. They protect you from illness, smoke, gas leaks, etc.

Been seeing a lot of folks talk about bugout bags where the context seems to be fleeing a Knock from secret police or something, and I want to gently suggest folks consider more likely reasons to bug out (wildfires, crumbling infrastructure leading to gas leaks, etc).

Make sure your bag can get you through scenarios where you are part of a mass evacuation, rather than you clandestinely leaving in the middle of the night to escape brownshirts.

I feel like thinking in this context will help folks prepare better and think beyond fleeing to the nearest border as their prime objective.

I don't like giving this regime more power than it actually has, so it is helpful to me to think about what I would do in specific scenarios. Planning for those gives me much more concrete action items, reduces my panic, and ends up preparing me better for unknown situations.

A lot of us have real fear of this regime rn, and escaping a Knock is a realistic concern.

But I feel like a lot of white, cishet, middle class folks are in oppression cosplay mode rn, and their brains aren't in a practical space for what the more likely impact to their lives is going to be.

If preparing for a Knock isn't also going to prepare you for facing sitting in traffic for 12 hours with no hotel plans because you need to evacuate a natural disaster on short notice, you should think a bit more about your risk factors and resiliency.

Vague prepping for "When shit hits the fan" means you are going to forget key items. Come up with some specific scenarios to run through and see how your kit would perform.

[hellsgate-roadhouse]

[irrepressible-domovoy]

They make solar/crank-powered radios that don't require batteries. You can at least use them to get weather updates in an emergency.

Keep a pack of Scrubzz on hand for when you can't take a shower.

If you have pets, have a first aid kit for them as well. And yes, there's a difference. You should also have a leash for them, even your cat. They don't deserve to be cooped up in a carrier if you have to leave.

Bartering tools are very important, as well. Money may not always help you, but you can always trade supplies. (People will be willing to trade almost anything for sugar, chocolate, cigarettes, or alcohol if they can't get easy access to it)
