Apocalypse never

A helpful reminder, in the horrible clickbait culture that wants to scare the shit out of you in order to get your attention for three minutes:

Human predictions of the apocalypse: 1,000,000,000s

Number of times it came true: 0

Predicting the end times: it's merely our programming. It's what we do. It's what we pay attention to. There is nothing different about modern predictions. This is simply human nature at work.

If you think your prediction is somehow different, please reference the table above. You're not special, and you and your human sources of information are definitely not immune to this. It's part of our DNA.
