I accept financial collapse, nuclear war and other practical doomerism hypotheses to be concerned about, but I’m putting “sustainability” arguments in with supervolcano. Alien invasion is up right now.

And yeah I can attest that there is a certain appeal. Psychologically it’s that post apocalypse survival brings purpose to an otherwise easy, almost pointless existence, I think this is widely understood no?

I will also say that post apocalypse survival is a simple game to play, dig a hole and live in it, I could buy an entire lifetime of gaseous oxygen and bury it in the ground with me at current prices. The level up is to ensure the survival of one’s local community. Master level is Elon Musk style interplanetary insurance.
