Additional monthly charge to park the car somewhere, if they have one.

Good for a ......smoke bomb.

The urbanites are a funny bunch. They should paint stars on the ceiling as well, probably the only time the kids will get to gaze at them.

Thats a bomb shelter?? looks like a shack. a HIMAAR would take that out in seconds?? Also japan is too over reactive and sensitive to the war thats happening in Ukraine. Russia and China will never have the ballz to attack Japan in the name of USA!!

It is the size of a family car since it is in the carport.

It is either brilliant or totally irrational. I don't know which, but time will tell.

Perceived risk vs actual risk.

Saitama?

Doesn’t make so much sense. In the real case you then of course won’t have TV and electricity , sitting relaxed and dressed in clean clothes on the bench all day and even if you make it those fourteen days that are advised to stay in it before going out into the destroyed and radiating environment , all others have already taken the last resources out of the supermarkets, public and business buildings, if there still are any, and you’re much too late when crawling out of your nice bunker, or they just simply lynch and rob you of everything when you open the door because they also might think it’s now nicer to have a bunker place they couldn’t afford to buy before the bombs. It’s probably more a psychological tranquilizer and in best case a little postponement for a few days of own death, not more, but admitted also not less.

What a terribly queer affair. Why oh why do these silly people have to live in fear all the time? I’m flummoxed by the way peoples minds seem to be working these days.

Sometimes I feel like there is a section living in a different reality to the rest of us, maybe absorbing too much media, to unhealthy and leads to negative thoughts.

It protects you from the pikadon.
