In order for there to be nuclear war, something would have to happen. However, since nothing ever happens, I do not believe there will be nuclear war.

who cares? if we do we'll still have to go to work.
I hope so. But only in the united states against itself
nuke war no. H1N1 pandemic yes
We have a flu pandemic every year, we just slap the label of "seasonal flu" on top and forget the half a million people that die 
q
New hope just dropped:
Second pandemic distracts the West enough to pull out of their wars.
Eh, like 20%.
"nothing ever happens"
"but chudda, what if-"
"it won't.”
Putin just told me that if you go ahead and create and finish your bucket list, he won’t start a nuclear war. That’s his promise to you.
All I'm saying is we better hope those aliens in the ocean are real, lmao
no LMAO
At the gay bar
Listened to the song for the first time in forever. Thank you
You're asking this in the site that was sure Russia wouldn't actually invade Ukraine
I got an online buddy in Russia and they were just as surprised as us tbf.
To be fair, Russia didn't invade Ukraine per se.
Nothing ever happens
-me, feb 2022, days prior to obliterating my predictive credibility with my partner
Ukraine? I was in discord talking to a Russian friend when it popped off and both of us were certain it wasn't gonna happen lol
Tbh days was being generous to me, the day of I was so secure that they were lies about Russian buildup and they were just exercises and that it wasn’t going to be anything. And then I was wrong 😢
tbh, I didn't think it was going to happen, but had no evidence or reason to believe either way, so I had no idea why the loudest voices on hexbear were so CERTAIN and stubborn about declaring it wouldn't happen. If you don't know something, just let it be something you don't know.
We all were even all the people I know online that live there
i look forward to the prospect of becoming a War Boy and dying in a really interesting/stupid way to make the spectacle line go up
The War Street Tyrecoon and his High Finallance Charioteers raising the holy line!
I'm gonna say not a chance, but then again I also was adamant that Putin would never invade Ukraine, sooo...
Rule #1 of nuclear war is don't live in or near a major city, so I'm screwed.
On the contrary, rule #1 of nuclear war is live directly next to a major target so you get the instantaneous atomization death over the cancer-and-famine option.
Yes, and try and live close to the center of where you think the nuke would be targeted. If it comes, you’ll be vaporized instantly with no awareness. Depending on the size of the nuke, if you’re outside of that radius, you get shockwave, firestorm and fallout depending on distance, and while you will almost certainly die, it may not be quick and painless.
If you're close enough, the shockwave is fast enough that the heat generated from the speed of the shockwave would instantly vaporize your body.
if it comes, you’ll be vaporized instantly with no awareness.
but what if you're opening the fridge for a late midnight muckbang video with a last minute sponser and then suddenly the initial shockware knocks you into the fridge and when you get out all your manikins are on fire?
Idk it would be pretty neat to see the blastwave.
Imagine the Tik Toks.

1.) If you see the flash move away from the windows. They're gonna explode like grenades in a second or two. Get down behind something. Once the blast wave passes stay in cover because it's gonna come back from the other direction as the blast wave collapses in to the vacuum created by the explosion
2.) TURN OFF THE GAS. Much of the devastation in Japan was caused by out of control gas fires.
3.) Fill the tub and any containers with water ASAP.
4.) Seal up the house as much as you can. It'll keep some of the fallout outside until it settles.
5.) Cover your nose and mouth. An N95 is ideal but anything, even a rag soaked in water, is better than nothing.
6.) If you're instructed to evacuate move away from the debris plume at a right angle. If the wind is blowing all the fallout south you want to go east or west to get out from under the fallout as soon as possible.
7.) If you survive the initial blast and don't die of radiation poisoning your biggest radiation risk is going to be ingesting irradiated material. Filter all water. Avoid water from the fallout zone. Use bottled or stored water as much as possible.
8.) If you've got them take iodine tablets. This will flood your system with iodine causing your body to pass excess iodine out. This may prevent radioactive iodine from accumulating in your thyroid.

Rule #1 is actually don't live near nuclear silos.
If there is a war, whoever the US will be exchanging with will target capacity for more strikes. So, they will target those sites. I hear many of them are in the midwest and throughout that expanse. So, you shouldn't live in those rural areas either if you're close to one.
Although cities will also be targeted, especially if there are secret nuclear silos that the other country knows about. I have no doubt in my mind they use cities as human shields for nukes.
