This post is not a threat, a prediction or a reaction to any political event. It's about preparedness. Resilient communities are built before they're needed, not after.
In the event that the talks of disaster following the midterms actualize, I wanted to post this as a matter of principle, there is a solution to Ill-preparation.
Ask me about @QAVREgrown

Food security is national security.
America's food, water and power travel long, centralized supply chains. When a port closes, a grid fails or a disaster cuts off a region, the shelves empty fast.
Defense analysts have argued the same about our military: feeding forces far from home depends on long, costly and vulnerable supply routes.
The answer is decentralization: produce what people need where they live.
@QAVREgrown is building decentralized, off-grid infrastructure, that grows food, recycles water and generates power, site by site.
What one QAVRE site is designed to do:
Food: year-round multi-crop production
Water: closed loops that capture, filter and reuse water
Energy: solar panels built into the shell, with an off-grid power option
Control: QAVRE OS and sensors run climate, water, nutrients and power as one system, with a human override on every control
Built for continuity:
• Permanent food production at bases, rural towns, and remote communities
• A transportable kit planned for disaster response and remote sites
• Domestic, documented cultivation of plant medicine ingredients
• No single point of failure. A network of sites is harder to break than any one hub.
Designed to stand for 40+ years. A research platform for crop breeding and plant science. And a closed-loop testbed whose data can inform life support for future missions beyond Earth.
Grow systems. Build in balance.

For Home Owners: Resilience starts at home.
@QAVREgrown technology on your property is designed to grow your food, capture and reuse your water, and make your own power, on or off the grid.
When supply chains stall, your family doesn't.
Not a prediction or a warning, just preparedness.
We're early and building now.
Grow systems. Build in balance.
Few months ago I was working 3 jobs, searching for one thing full time, prospecting and asking around for steady work.
Now I'm full time as a plumbing sales technician, running my own van, selling and installing my own jobs, while building @QAVREgrown on the side.
Life gets real good, real fast. Grateful, and praying to keep my momentum.
1206 days sober.
If you know me, you know my road has been anything but easy. I can say this though, I’m proud of my commitment. CSU Ag-business, sobriety, plumbing, entrepreneurship. It’s all been formative.

Trillionaire mindset:
"I believe in my ability to figure it out more than I believe in any obstacle."
Trillionaire mindset be like: I don’t know how to do something, but I’ll figure it out. I’ll learn.
“I still have a tremendous amount to learn about chip making. I don't know how to make chips, to be clear. I have no idea how to make chips, but we'll figure it out. Got to start somewhere. I had no idea how to make cars or rockets as well.”
—Elon Musk
Be a wolf in sheep’s clothing, indefinitely, not because you’ve forgotten who you are, but because the world casts wolves astray, and sometimes survival means wearing the wool until you’ve built a world where you no longer have to.
Dear Palmer, (@PalmerLuckey)
Big Ag & defense run on the same rules:
-heavy regulation
-gov. as buyer, funder, regulator
I'm a 25 y/o plumber, building QAVRE, an OS for growing food in sensor run Domes. pre-seed, pre-prototype. Proving it in cannabis first. Need your help @QAVREgrown

Proud that I pivoted from web3, crypto, & agriculture, into home services, (Plumbing, HVAC).
Smartest decision I ever made.
There is no plan B in the trades.
I’m all in.
Might circle back if it makes sense one day.

There is literally no need to fuck the world right back when it feels like it is doing you a disservice.
Fuck an eye for an eye.
Let go. Trust your intuition. Enjoy the ride. Be yourself. Have faith.
Work hard at your goals. Keep applying yourself to the best of your ability, at your highest level. Believe in yourself. Learn through muscle memory how to be there for yourself. Continue to mature and learn no matter where you are in life. Take calculated risks. Do not screw anybody over.
There is something powerful about moving through life that way. Not because it guarantees some predetermined reward, but because you remain in control of who you are while everything around you changes.
Stay humble. Stay loving.
Ego is your friend when you can tame it. It gives you the ability to stand firmly in yourself without needing to stand above anybody else. You are never better than or worse than the person next to you. You are simply different.
And if you weren’t who you are, and they weren’t who they are, the world wouldn’t be in synchronicity.
Everybody is becoming. Everybody is carrying the influence of those who came before them. Everybody is making their own interpretation of what it means to be alive.
Pray to the stars. Not necessarily for an easy life, but for the strength to meet whatever is in front of you with clarity, courage and love.
There is no better feat in life than overcoming adversity without becoming bitter.
That is a choice available in every circumstance.
I do not need revenge to validate what happened to me. I do not need another person’s failure to make my own existence meaningful. I do not need to return cruelty simply because cruelty found me.
I can let go.
I can keep moving.
I can suffer without becoming suffering. I can experience pleasure without needing to possess it. I can experience uncertainty without pretending I know what comes next.
Death is part of the same human experience. I have thought about it for as long as I can remember, and I don’t need to romanticize it or fear it to acknowledge that it exists.
Until then, there is suffering, with brief lapses of peace, excitement, pleasure, love, discovery and wonder.
The human experience in its fully developed demeanor.
A guessing game from the start, simply taking after those before you and me.
And here we are.
Finally settling in to my own skin, I suspect I’ve tweeted similar things, and will again.
As I shed/moult these thin layers, I recognize that I’m growing.
I thank my self for battling the hard things I’ve faced, in order to feel what I felt today.
$2000 day, seems like a little compared to what I’ve seen. But it’s an honest living.
And I’m NOT stopping there.
I recently did some reflection, and noticed my faith and determination in a dream that I have for myself, is the reason I haven’t given up.
I identify with that dream.
I’m looking for $100k days.
And then somewhere down that road I’m on… $100M years.
Keep faith.
Lone wolf is cool, but you ever seen a triangle in the sky of birds. That’s how I wanna be moving with a team. Lone bird is cool too tho. Fuck it lone wolf is pretty sick as is. Why not both. Pack of wolfs actually, that’s where it’s at.
I’m obviously the alpha tho, duh.
Vultures??? Hawks??? Pet dog???
Jagd terrier is the kind of dog I like, fights bears.
