here's something productive that everyone can do in light of recent events and events in motion that have yet to reach completion. Stock up on resources; don't panic and buy shit you can't use; you need non-perishable food, like canned foods; get fruits and veggies and everything the body needs. Start putting together emergency kits for you and your family/friends in case you need to go quickly from where you are. Simple little backpacks with snacks and clothing, etc.
Be reasonable and pack only what you need. Luxuries will have to be discarded if worse goes to worst. Have matches handy, in a baggy so they can't get wet; cell phone batteries and steel wool are also handy for starting fires. Have something on hand you can use as a weapon if need be. Concealable but easy and quick to pull out and use. Hatchets are great all around because they can also be used to obtain firewood in case you need to rough it a few nights or more. Tents and sleeping bags, etc. are all necessities. Make sure you have enough medication on hand to last you a few months if you can and always have that much on hand; if you have to take any medication. The last thing you need is to have something happen that cuts you off from your medication for an extended period of time.
be prepared for the worst, but hope for the best. make escape routes out of your house and neighborhood and city; shortest distance, what's likely to go under attack if it does go under attack, etc. Plan your every move, but leave your plans open enough to account for the unaccountable. Leave them flexible instead of rigid.
Things are getting scary, but if you let fear run your mind, you'll wind up in worse danger than if you just act. There may not be much time for fear, so you'll have to move through that stage quickly and on to responsibility.
