I mean this is certainly something somebody wrote, but the content is a joke.

first off, it's from the 80s, so it might as well be from the 1800s, that's how much it has to do with our everyday lives. second, it's rife and overflowing with prepper-adjacent gas and fantasies. the writer's style is lacking, to be overly generous and the whole thing gives off vibes from the days or alt.* newsgroups. finally, the "advice" in there is laughably naive and sometimes just plain wrong.

so thanks OP, had a few laughs browsing it but this got deleted almost instantly.
