The US Presidential election is today. And no matter who wins, there’s a vague sense that nothing is going to be okay. You have a couple of options tonight as we learn the fate of our nation. One is to watch the election results in real time, fearing the worst for hours. The other option is to head down to your bunker (I trust every Paleofuture reader has one) and listen to a soundtrack for the end of the world.

If you’re planning on doing the latter, I’ve compiled a little playlist. Best of luck and we’ll see you on the other side of all this.
