Big ugly vicious plotbunny

So I was reading Late Great American Republic and i was hit with a plotbunny.

This would let me write my post-apocalypse story without the need for 1) playing in Stephen King's Stand universe or 2) actually killing everyone.

The author of the piece has neglected a lot of survival strategies. He's chronicling a political event, after all. I realize that the average person isn't going to think "garden, homeschool, solar oven, bicycle, hunting season" when reading that.

But the line about "The literacy rate plummetted after the schools were closed" struck me as all wrong. Around here, homeschooling is a big movement. I can see parents who know homeschool families saying "Would you teach my kids too? I'll pay you in vegetables."

And he seems to neglect the lessons of history, in particular Rome. When city life is unsustainable, people will flock to the countryside. They will find someone to work for in exchange for protection. I can see America as he describes it becoming a totalitarian feudal state.

Stupid killer plotbunny from Hell.

Because iiiiiiiii will alwaaaaays love youuuuuuuu!

So i got a new drivers licence. My old one was lost.

Making jambalya for dinner. At least for them. i may have to subsist on a single taco today.

Rest of the day: book-keeping, captures from The Wall and work. Also packaging the ravenclaw patch for return and crocheting a square.

The high point of my day was figuring out all the sex positions in one of my stories. Standing manual, penetration from behind, face to face and a blowjob. Active for a 10 page story.

Right. That was entirely too silly. it may have to turn into a real story.
