Many people already feel fear and anxiety obout the coronavirus (COVID-19). The threat of a nuclear explosion can add additional stress.
:fidel-wut:
Idk if it's because I'm mildly high, but your use of that emoji made me laugh so hard lol
I've come back to your comment 3 times now, and it makes me laugh every time
I came back the next afternoon and laughed again, lmao
can't wait to hear that emergency broadcast noise blast full volume from everyone's cell phone simultaneously
Hope they don't accidentally set off those alarms like they did in Hawaii in 2018. Pretty sure that would straight up kill me.
Light is faster than sound so I expect to be vaporized before I hear those discordant tones
I was more thinking of those cold war warning when they would detect missile launches so you'd have at best 10 minutes after hearing the warning
Oh yeah. That reminds me of tornado siren warnings. I've lived in towns where they tested them weekly and it always scared the shit out of me
who the hell came up with that??
edit: though there is something to be said for the fact that it actually worked.
just dust the radiation off your dog. I'm sure he'll be fine... :egg-dog:
Gently scrub with a brush, before lightly oiling and salting :kitty-cri-potato:
Why is all that COVID stuff in there? Feels like it was copy and pasted from the last disaster lol.
If your county has been leveled by atomic weaponry, consider engaging with your community virtually to limit the spread of COVID-19.
Holy shit, I was just joking but then I look at the site and they literally do say to social distance while you wait for the missiles to arrive
If warned of an imminent attack, immediately get inside the nearest building and move away from windows. This will help provide protection from the blast, heat, and radiation of the detonation.
When you have reached a safe place, try to maintain a distance of at least six feet between yourself and people who are not part of your household. If possible, wear a mask if you’re sheltering with people who are not a part of your household. Children under two years old, people who have trouble breathing, and those who are unable to remove masks on their own should not wear them.
Meanwhile if the missiles aren't coming, pretend like COVID has gone away so that the economy doesn't hurt.
This has to be a joke. :what-the-hell:

Maybe it is because I am suffering from mild sleep deprivation, but I feel like I'm losing my fucking marbles. Maybe this is for the event of a false warning? But even so it's fucking deranged
To find out that I have succumbed to madness would be a great comfort. The greater terror lies in knowing all of this is real.
You actually do. If you're shielded from the initial energy wave and far enough away to survive the blast pressure wave you'll most likely be fine. Acute radiation poisoning falls off pretty rapidly after 5-10 miles, and fallout is mostly a problem for people downwind of the blast center. If the bomb is air-burst instead of ground burst the complications from fallout go down a lot, too. Like if you're within a few miles of ground zero you're probably fucked, but if you survive the blast wave you're probably fine.
For real. I’d honestly rather be in the “instantly become a shadow on the wall” range than the “die in slow misery over the next months to years” range
Engage virtually with your community through video and phone calls. Know that it’s normal to feel anxious or stressed. Take care of your body and talk to someone if you are feeling upset. Many people may already feel fear and anxiety about the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). The threat of a nuclear explosion can add additional stress. Follow CDC guidance for managing stress during a traumatic event and managing stress during COVID-19
Imagine thinking US infrastructure will survive a nuclear war.
I love that America's preparation for Nuclear War was, more or less literally, "The cities are full of removed democrat voting ethnic scum and when they are purged by fire America will be better off. Also building communal fallout shelters would be communism".
Great country. A+
I will not take the iodine pills. I will not wear the radiation suit. I will not take a chemical shower.
This nuclear missile was created in a lab in Russia. Deliberately. Liberals will tell you that you can be safe from it if you wear a little HAZMAT suit when you go outside. What they won't tell you is that this was planned all along. They just want to sell you anti-radiation chemicals and make a 1984 police state around "bunkers". "Oh no we need to stay in bunkers for up to three weeks before the background radiation dissipates." I can't even see background radiation and besides, I'm young and healthy. There's radiation in a banana too but I eat them- organic- because I prepared for this. I'm over here eating little bits of radiation every day while liberals cry in their bunkers.
The banner image looks like something The Onion would use in their stories, lmao
I clicked through specifically because of this comment and now I can't breathe
Holy fuck. I just laughed so hard. The banner takes up 80% of my phones screen and it loads instantly
cant wait until radiation becomed politicized like covid
Sorry snowflake but you're telling me you're dying because you spent too long next to a glowing rock? Grow up
