The pandemic taught us something crucial, didn't it? Our civilization runs on thinner ice than most people realize. Picture this: power grids failing, natural disasters cascading beyond control, or some unexpected black swan event throwing everything off balance. We're talking about systems we take for granted every single day—electricity, supply chains, communication networks. One domino falls, and suddenly you're looking at a chain reaction nobody saw coming. Makes you wonder how prepared we really are when things go sideways. How many backup plans do we actually have? Worth thinking about.
