Find local, likeminded people, who are reliable, fair, reasonable, and pragmatic, and most importantly, not dramatic.

Find ways you can help fill in gaps in those other people's lives, in a mutally beneficial way, not a purely competetive/social status jockeying kind of way, and ways they can help you with yours.

Literally nothing else is more fundamental or more important than that.

We have to rebuild or I guess at this point rediscover what an actual community is.

No other possible 'plan' is going to work without that.

thanks. your reply is appreciated. It can be difficult to know what to do in times of so much chaos and new information on a daily basis while attempting to know whats true and what is BS, especially as a not so educated person.
