Who is The Longhouse Preparedness?

Throughout the ages, the citizen-warrior has been a common archetype. We hold that the good is to be willed, and that honor lies in the steadfast readiness to defend it.

Therefore, we commit ourselves to disciplined preparation, the cultivation of virtue, and to the vigilant stewardship of the responsibilities entrusted to us.

In willing the good and preparing for its preservation, we seek to act in accord with right reason, steadfast purpose, and an enduring sense of duty.

Our team brings together military, law enforcement, and civilian backgrounds, unified by a shared dedication to developing our capabilities and ordering them toward the good.

Inspired by the ancient European longhouse where communities gathered to learn, instruct, and strengthen one another, we have fashioned a modern longhouse in that same spirit: an assembly where knowledge is shared, skills and the spirit are honed, and the will toward the good is fortified through fellowship and disciplined practice.

"In Willingness We Train, That Honor May Endure."

Bishop Williamson: The vile media are in the hands of Our Lord's enemies, by a just punishment of God, and the vile media lie as they breathe. If you want to know whether or not they're lying, just watch whether they're opening their mouth

Be sober, be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking some one to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experience of suffering is required of your brotherhood throughout the world. And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, establish, and strengthen you.

Reminder that Google (who owns Android) is first and foremost an advertisement company and they run your searches to create personalized ads and create an AI version of you to determine what you’re going to want to buy before you even say anything so they can target you with ads.

Erik Prince dropped a straight-up creepy fact on Tucker Carlson.

You close the bathroom door. You pull the shower curtain.
But you happily put your phone on the nightstand… where it listens to everything.

He says people talk about needing a new mattress in bed and wake up to mattress ads. Even worse: Android phones spike 50MB of data around 3 AM — basically uploading your pillow talk to the mothership.

This one actually made me paranoid. I’ve had those exact “how did they know?” moments too many times.

We’ve casually invited surveillance into the most private parts of our lives.

Do you still sleep with your phone right next to your bed?

It seems like every day there’s another “tool” being sold like knick knacks. This is mainly watches, guns, and nylon gear.

Trends rip through these circles and last month’s “must have” gets sold to fund this month’s.

One should ask themselves “Do the items being advertised fill an actual need I have? Or did the advertisers convince me that I have a new need that only they can fill?”

This isn’t to discourage people from buying/trying new things for their own end goals, I obviously have my share of buying and selling gear, and sometimes we draw inspiration from past proven things or things that remind us of a seemingly simpler time or movies/video games that we like. But this metric helps fight against the cinematic intros to videos that portray a certain niche scenario driven problem that they have the perfect solution for.

If you go your whole life up to this point content with what you own and use, and suddenly you get told that you *need* influencer_brand watch, or “X_dynamic_concepts” pouch, or an acronym of buzzwords rifle build, do you actually need it?

AK’s are stupid guns and a waste of money.

You could buy ammo and training instead of owning dogshit Reddit guns
