Based on Geopolitical Tensions, Experts Offer Tips on Decorating Your Fallout Shelter for Summer
As geopolitical tensions continue to simmer like a microwave burrito in a crumbling bunker kitchen, lifestyle experts are stepping in to make sure your summer in the fallout shelter is as radiant as the soil above it.
“Just because society’s collapsed doesn’t mean your aesthetic has to,” said bunkerfluencer @PrepperChic74, broadcasting from her tastefully irradiated hideaway. “Throw pillows, twinkle lights, and some upcycled canned-bean tins as planters can really liven up any reinforced concrete hellhole.”
The Department of Homeland Security now includes “seasonal mood lighting” in their preparedness checklist, noting that LED fairy lights not only improve morale but can also distract from the ever-growing stack of expired rations and the sound of your neighbor slowly losing it in the next cell.
Experts recommend a beach theme this year, complete with sandbags, painted murals of what oceans used to look like, and pool noodles repurposed as radiation shields. For those with kids, duct tape crafts and “Guess That Mutant Noise” remain top-tier shelter activities.
“Remember,” said one FEMA spokesperson, “nuclear winter doesn’t mean you can’t have a little summer in your heart. Or at least a fake palm tree near the Geiger counter.”
