Two and a Half minutes to go people....

Just two and a half minutes until the lights go out for the final time.

I think this should go in Politics and Other Fun, given how much of what's pushing the change is either explicitly political or, as with the climate change aspect, heavily influenced by politics.

This is the first time that the Doomsday Clock has been adjusted by a half-minute. (So, the situation is really really bad, but it isn't really really really bad?)

Go back to setting the Doomsday Clock by full minutes! Make the Doomsday Clock great again!

It's been a year... and the clock creeps closer to midnight. The situation is now really really really bad.

... Crap.

And there's a guy that, if we are lucky, is merely incompetent and in charge of the USA.

We can but hope he'll get kicked out soon and a more capable replacement provided, but even that isn't looking too rosy.

Doomsday Clock stays put in 2019

Since there's nothing new to say, here's a retrospective:
