Threat to physical media
We are living in a time of extreme weather events and increased levels of natural disasters. Its fair to say that a number of physical paraphernalia: comics, action figures, otherwise, has been destroyed in these happenings. Is anyone taking precautions with their collections and property in general in the hopes of minimizing this?

I don't think I'll make it that long either way though. |
Didn't Michelle Ivey have some of her TMNT stuff ruined when Michigan experienced a flood?

…and a few months ago I was considering getting insurance for my TMNT collection. Maybe this is a sign. |

Besides, I get seasick, especially after eating on a boat. |

It's a calculus that goes like this: -Life anger/Low self-esteem/low personal achievement = turn to religion -Turn to Religion = something to grasp onto -Something to grasp onto = misplaced sense of personal achievement -Newly discovered Sense of personal achievement + religion = "armor of God" ego -"Armor of God" ego = the end is near and my special position under the "armor of God" ego means I can sense the patterns of the end before other people. And I am ready for it. There's a spectrum, even for servants of God. I imagine that the "High Religiosity/Raging Ego" servants actually fall on the spectrum somewhere closer to Hell and would be very shocked to find that out. |

Everything is bound to disappear at some point. How many copies of TMNT #1 will still be around in like 200 years? Few, maybe. Paper can be strong, if well preserved. CDs and DVDs? Not much. Plastic is subjected to a faster physical decay. All your music, movies and games will be unreadable before you die.
