.......ya know? If trump just nuked all of earth, and everybody died? At least I don't have to worry about my non-existant retirement plan.

I'd rather their insane country didn't take the rest of us with them.

Yes. But I'm rooting for a Gamma Ray Burst.

Oh come on, New Zealand has the best chance of survival out of anywhere in the world, along with maybe some forgotten village in the middle of the Asian Steppes or the Tibetan Plateau...

Oh. I know. Guess where all their billionaires have bought citizenship and built bunkers?

We could at least start catching up on sleep.

I’m not worried about being directly hit, as it would be a quick death I’d never even be aware of.

But I’m terrified of being in the blast zone and surviving, as that means a slow, painful death by disintegration. When the radioactivity prevents one’s cells from dividing, the countdown clock has begun and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.
