      Glad to know I’m not the only one.

      Every time I watch a post-apocalyptic film, I’m left wondering why anyone would want to live for that.

        The thing is, what if you are the hero? Like, the only one able to draw the melon’s life force, that saves all of humanity?

        If you kill yourself, you take all remaining humans with you.

      You’re living through it right now though. Increased disease, poverty, institutional break down, more conflict, more movement of peoples towards various social or environmental refugia. ‘Collapse’ is a process that takes decades.

        Yeah but there are a couple downward steps that would be a lot larger and more obvious. I’m hanging out to see if they are in the near future. And also heck it might be fun for a minute in the more chaotic moments.

            Touchè. I mean though still a female or not could break into the zoo and try to play with the animals or break into a chocolate factory and steal all the cocoa they can get their hands on… Just more inherent risks.

              I feel like it would be easier for a woman to “oopsie whoopsie” their way out of alotta situations where my hagrid unibomber lookin ass would get instantly tazed, no questions asked.
