Why.

Please don't.

For toads in cold climates, they do. Not counting rare exceptions, all 'cold-blooded' animals have to hibernate or go into warm places (like some spiders come indoors in autumn) to survive through the winter.

Just rinse it well, I'm pretty sure you won't have any problems.

Also, in the one scenario where I would find dressing up as a nazi acceptable, which is if they're an actor for a movie/show/play that requires nazi characters, they are not going to just put an armband on their everyday modern clothing.

They'll wear a proper reconstruction of an actual nazi uniform, and they're not going to just walk around in that costume, they're going to be on or around a set, which also gives any possible passerbys the context clues needed to understand that they're just an actor, thus saving themselves from being punched.

But it's urine tax collector, meaning that he collects the tax people pay to use public latrines.

Yeah, gold isn't worth anything unless a community agrees to assign a value to it, which probably won't happen in an apocalyptic scenario. If you really want to be prepared, you need to stock up on things that are actually useful:

• non-perishable, nutritious food (preferably something that has a lot of calories in a small serving so you could carry it on you)
• drinking water!! you would have to change it every once in a while though, so you wouldn't be drinking germ soup if a societal collapse actually happens
• durable, good quality clothing for various climates/weather conditions (due to climate change and the possibility that you would flee somewhere, you should preferably have clothing suitable for other climates than just the one you're used to)
• miscellanous supplies, like tools for building shelters, farming, making & maintaining different items, destroying things like trees or rocks to make space for building/agriculture or more likely, obtain materials. Things to protect yourself and your loved ones from the elements, like a good tent, sleeping bags, etc. Flashlights, powerbanks, batteries, water purifiers, multitools...
• knowledge. No matter how much stuff you have, it's no use if you don't actually know how to do things. Learn canning, blacksmithing, sewing, gardening, fishing, carpentry, foraging, and so on.

I mean, considering the fact that numerous pre-modern cultures relied on (diluted) alcohol as their main drink since water was too dirty to drink safely without mixing it in with wine/beer/whatever, and that a lot of people would use alcohol to cope with te hard times that might actually be a good skill to have in the scenario of large amounts of infrastructure becoming unusable. (modern knowledge of germ theory & boiling drinking water would probably make it a lot more useless, but I bet you could find people willing to trade supplies with you for a nice drink.

Make a bunch of shiny trinkets, train a gigantic murder of crows to steal food & supplies and attack on command, profit.

But in a societal collapse owning land doesn't matter, because land ownership is much more dependent on contracts, which don't mean jack shit without a society and a government, and if you have to flee because of a war or a natural disaster, you can't just stuff your forest/house/farmland/whatever in a suitcase and sell it later.
