My guess is that you would just be funding the place that your security team will live in once they kill you to save themselves.

All we need to do is convince them that the planet is doomed. Perhaps it is going to crash into the sun, or the moon is going to crash into us, or the entire planet is about to be eaten by an enormous mutant star goat.

1: I hope the security team is enjoying the amenities there already.

Even your baseline-normal enormous star goat is pretty intimidating, tbh.

I would like to see this post title made into a feature film. If it ends with the star goat devouring the 1% so much the better.

The giant star goat is not original but is lifted from The Standpipe's Guide to the Galaxy.

Mod Max would be a great film because presumably everyone would be on heavily armed war scooters. Like this!

9.2: The modern flexible military forces of today will just use their smartphones to rent electric scooters and provide their own armaments.

Luxury bunkers are just nuts. A simple cob hut on a ten acres sounds nice though.

A violent mod-themed post-apocalyptic drama would allow us to cast both Peter and Paul Weller.

Ajay, please write a cob-hut drama too. The world needs more Moby.

If you checked Standpipe's blog, you would know that.

I should really see RoboCop. I missed a bunch of movies because I wasn't allowed to see R-rated movies as a child and I never got all of them on video.

I highly recommend the new Coen brothers film "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs" which is now on Netflix.
