    Relax in a hammock for a couple hours, then make some grilled cheese

    I can finally go outside for a nice peaceful walk or bike ride. No people, no suburban tanks, no noisy motors. That would be so nice

    This was my go-to fantasy for most of my adolescence. I wouldn’t say I got better but I at least got different.

    I didn’t want to lose my loved ones, but sometimes it seemed like an acceptable trade. Now they’re all dead but everyone else is still here, worst timeline.

    Make a nice cup of coffee, sit my ass down in my comfy chair in front of my computer and use Linux all day. I use Arch BTW

        Oh thank god. Everything is fine, then. We go about our day.

        In future days, I collect the neighborhood dogs.

    Boot up the meshtastic and see if I can find any nodes so I can figure out what is going on.

    Hop on the ham radio and tune into the frequencies people use for disaster preparedness and hope someone knows something.

      Do you know the frequency? If not you’re screwed

        Not off the top of my head but I do have some of the common ones programmed into my radios and others backed up in a firmware file hosted locally.

          Good plan, I have a wind up radio and phone charger. I’ve got the stations saved. Plus lets be honest if the shit really hit the fan we’d have time to search manually

    Go to the library, because there’s time now (and bring a spare pair of glasses)

    Ride a sled down the stairs and watch b&w gangster movies

    Third movie/tv trope I can’t think of right now

    Are my loved ones still here or is it just me?

    Id probably be a little crazy looking for my girlfriend and her daughter if they are gone.

    Otherwise maybe go for a nice drive around the city without traffic for once. Go to some museums and see the things behind closed doors.
