You get an unlimited supply of a single item to survive post-apocalypse. What are you choosing, and why?
-
Electricity would be tempting. If you have access to water, you can boil it to make it safe. Run a refrigerator to store food. A convenient source of heat for cooking. Stay warm in the winter, stay cool in the summer. Lights for when it's dark. Use power tools to build things. Listen to music, watch movies, play those old Nintendo games.
Even after some time when your electronics break down and scavenging working ones gets tough, it's not difficult to build things like simple resistive heaters. Making crude incandescent light bulbs wouldn't be impossible either.
Electricity

Pregnant women. Because they're hot and their milk supply is easy to induce.
Also the fetus is delicious

Gin, I don't plan on surviving in an apocalypse
You should've said pancakes because then username would check out
-
I’m thinking either Bic lighters or cigarettes, just to trade
A machine that allows me to travel across space-time so I can just nope-out of the universe amd find a new one in a timelime where the apocalypse didn't happen.

Gin is correct, because there's no such thing as too many pancakes.

malted barley
In the end of the world, or even just at the collapse of civilization as we know it, these can be used to make beer. Yeast is naturally occurring, hops just grow on vines, but malting grains seems to be the hardest part of the process to me. -

How about "fully staffed, fully functional nuclear reactors"? All the staff could come in handy for rebuilding like everything

I second the sentiment. You and other frequent posters of delightful posts help this place to feel more like a community. It's also nice because you make me reflect on my own online presence in a manner that provides a positive pressure to be the kind of person I value in my community; I see usernames like yours crop up again and again, and when I find myself noticing that organically, it makes me wonder what kinds of patterns people notice across my own comments — it's introspective, but in a good way
That's a lovely thing to say thanks so much

My meds. I don't think I'll be able to do shit without them.

I don't think condoms are going to help you with that buddy.

If it's a gigantic asteroid that blots out the sun, water is easy to find but food is critical.
Well, no, (liquid) water would be quite scarce
And still, only a small amount of water on Earth is actually drinkable.
