On the Beach is about all the people who thought it’d be a good idea to move to Australia in case all the nukes drop during the Cold War, and then the nukes drop and everyone in the northern hemisphere dies and they survive, but then they realize they’re just waiting for the natural wind patterns to bring all the radiation over to them to kill them too. The only way to win is not to play.
Depends, are we riding out the rise of fascism or riding out WWIII? Those are two highly different scenarios.
Either way, a Pacific island sounds nice.
Not with rising sea levels
Okay, Newfoundland.
Fair. A boat anchored at a Pacific Islay, while they exist.
Maybe I’ll dock at the Pacific garbage patch and distill my fuel from microplastics.
A proto-Waterworld scenario!
Ever read the book On the Beach?
Closest I’ve read is Lord of the Flies.
Hah very different themes I’d say.

So similar in that they’re both very dismal.
