- grab water - consider driving, but there’s nowhere to go - close windows - google “time for missile to reach hawaii” - google “nuclear blast radius” - send optimistic text messages - turn on news, check twitter, nothing - wait, why would they risk involvement in the olympics?
lessons: - blast radius: at best, one city - DPRK to hawaii flight time: 20 minutes - time to stop shaking from adrenaline: 20 minutes - only a few people are very important to me, but i was thinking a lot about everyone i know - basically ok w dying but would rather not yet

thinking about the concept of speech acts, power in communication. the special combination of authority and believability that created this effect. orwell’s war of the worlds broadcast. palestine/israel. psychological fireworks in the middle of the pacific.
My disdain for authority will probably do me harm some day, but today it helped. I assumed the alert was some kind of bullshit.
