on Tuesday, moving its hands to 90 seconds to midnight - closer than ever before to the threat of annihilation.The Doomsday Clock is a symbolic timepiece showing how close the world is to ending. Midnight marks the theoretical point of annihilation.
The hands of the clock are moved closer to or further away from midnight based on the scientists' reading of existential threats at a particular time.A Chicago-based non-profit organization called the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists updates the time annually based on information regarding catastrophic risks to the planet and humanity.
A board of scientists and other experts in nuclear technology and climate science, including 13 Nobel Laureates, discuss world events and determine where to place the hands of the clock each year.
How can anyone take these so-called 'scientists' seriously
Bro have y’all ever thought about living in the moment
Tell those fucks to speed it up. Start the countdown at 10 seconds and let’s get this over with
1053Rock Is this a fucking social experiment? Seriously unveiling the Doomsday clock like it were an award show.
The world of darkness.

congrats everyone, under Biden we managed to make the pretend clock get closer to midnight than it was under trump.
Oh no! If we send them a billion dollars, will they move the hand on their toy clock the other way?
😲
Should I understand that some countries lost their nuclear arsenal bc of a clock drawing 30ya...
US is pushing the world to the abyss.
I've lived through 4 end of times.

What happens if it hits 12:01? Does that mean it's giving the all clear?
Nuclear war 2023 , biggest fireworks in human history Reserve ticket in first row ......AND ENJOY

Nobody fucking cares.
Yes, I have one, too. But mine is running a little faster given the crazy world we’re living in.
Really, the clock is just a show piece. When humanity bites it, I'm sure the people running the clock will not know to turn it to zero beforehand.
We could do with a clearing out stick it on twelve for a laugh
A bunch of scientists get together, have a look at that day’s newspapers, nod their heads in despair and then turn to each other and say, “ things really are looking bit shit at the moment , aren’t they?” Then they move the minute hand on the clock a bit closer to twelve.
Would be nice if the muted words function worked properly so I could stop hearing about this arbitrary nonsense
Vibes
Doomsday will come when there is no food or water...just wait till there's no more bees.
Rich people attention whores
It’s antiquated and meaningless
Nobody cares about the Doomsday Clock.
Zzzzzzz
