shrugs gestures around The ongoing everything crisis of everything?

Yeah the world is pretty hopeless but you just gotta not let that affect you. Live like the world already ended a long time ago. Take things day by day.

That's a nice way to look at it (hmm well maybe not nice, but very useful).

If the world ends the first thing I'm going to do is stop paying rent and taxes so I don't think your strategy is going to work out too well for me.

Haha that's true, we get hopelessness and not even a tax break. That said in an actual apocalypse I doubt things would be rosy either and things like clean water, electricity and frozen pizza would be missed. We don't get to pick really, but it helps knowing things could at least be awful differently, and in that version of the world there's be us wishing for what we have.
