Some days, the news cycle alone makes a windowless concrete box 20 feet underground sound like a five-star spa. If I hear one more story about Putin's shirtless fishing trips, Trump’s latest bid to annex a golf course, or receive another passive-aggressive email from Heather in HR (“Just circling back”), I swear I’m digging a tunnel straight to my Cold War fallout bunker. Honestly, it’s starting to look like the only sane option. Give me 500 tins of baked beans, 300 cans of prunes in syrup (for that gourmet doom cuisine), a lifetime supply of toilet paper, and a hamster named Sir Whiskerstein powering my vintage record player. I’ll be down there listening to ABBA’s greatest hits while the surface world fights over the last Toblerone Dark, like it’s the Ring of Power. Call it escapism, call it nerdcore survivalism, call it time to actually get some peace and quiet, but whatever you call it, it’s time to crawl out through the fallout baby as today we look at cold war nuclear bunkers…
