I'm going to the drug store to buy them out of iodine. If I survive, probably going to need it.

Get with my kids and hang out... wherever. No basement, so either in a bathroom or get in a car and park it around behind my house and hope it's enough to protect us from the blast. If it doesn't, at least I'll be together with my kids when it happens.

I will do the following:

Duck and cover

I assume pizza delivery times will be through the roof, so I'd try to get mine in ASAP.

Double it and give it to the next person

I guess I'd seek shelter ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Nothing I can do. As far as I know there is no bomb safety infrastructure near my house plus I'm afraid of getting trapped underground so I wouldn't want to risk sitting in one.

I'd crack a beer, sit out on my deck and call my family and close friends to say my goodbyes.

I'm going to get some beer and weed and enjoy the rest of my day.

Take me and my cat down to the basement with my phone, water, power bank and lantern/candles, call my mom so we could all be on the phone together, and hope I'm taken out instantly.

I'd be setting off the pair of sirens I own, then awaiting the inevitable. Thankfully I live in an area where the chance of being vaporized is quite high.

I'd either go take a nap, or go hide in my basement. Not sure which.

If I'm at work, I go to the gym (the gym's in a cold war bomb shelter) if I'm at home I start heading north. Put a couple of mountains between me and the city.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Seek immediate shelter, probably. And wonder why someone would send a ballistic missile to New Hampshire.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

If you're my family, sleep through it while I frantically close windows because I didn't know what else to do. Most Hawaii homes have no basements usually, so its kind of just fucked
