The art of surviving without losing glamour

Imagine this: the world has exploded (literally), and you are locked in a bunker. You have electricity, some food, and lots, lots of time. But just because you're underground doesn't mean you have to lose style or succumb to absolute boredom. Here is an unpretentious list of things you could do to keep yourself sane… or at least entertained.
Dancing with your own demons

Play music (or hum, if there is no signal) and shake a leg. You don't need to dance well, not even to have rhythm. After all, there’s no one to judge you. No TikTok either.

Theatre workshop with multiple personalities

A sock, a flashlight, and a silly voice: you now have theater. Improvise dramatic scenes. Cry if necessary. Applaud at the end, it'd be shameful not to have an audience.
Writing the novel no one will read

Writing is still free. Take advantage of the apocalyptic silence to write your memoirs, your dystopian fiction, or a letter to that ex you can no longer complain to.

Cook with what you have and act like you’re on MasterChef

Grab a can, heat it up, plate it with style. Talk to yourself as if you were a Michelin-starred chef. "Here we have a bean reduction with nothing."

The treasure hunt with yourself

No need for space, just poor memory. Hide things, forget them, then search for them as if they were treasures. It's entertaining. And useful, when you can't find the can opener. Photo: Pexels
Become an influencer without connection

Record your daily routine on video. "Hi, guys, today we'll learn how to open a can without a knife. Spoiler: with desperation and strong teeth."

Emotional Chuck Norris-level martial arts

Throw kicks and imagine you’re in an action movie instead of locked in with cans of lentils. It’s either sport or catharsis. The important thing is to move.
Nuclear waste art exhibition

Stick things to walls. Call that an installation. Conduct imaginary guided tours. "This piece represents loneliness, limited oxygen, and boredom in D minor."

Bunker radio: The broadcaster of the end of the world

Mimic a radio show. Interview objects. Create fake news (For example: "Today it rains fire on the surface"). Do it in a deep voice; make it sound serious.

Dramatic reading of technical manuals

Grab that old generator manual and read it as if you were reciting Lorca. “Step one: connect the red wire to... oh, the tragedy.”
Role-playing games with dust bunnies and a cockroach

Turn any object into a character. Prepare a story with your provisions. The hero can be a milk powder box. The villain, the dampness.
Bunkerized fashion shows

Imagine you're at Paris Fashion Week. Wear the thermal blanket like a cape. Walk between shelves. Comment on your look as if you were in Vogue.
Pen tattoos: Ephemeral art or declaration of madness

Draw designs on your skin with a blue pen. A snake on the arm, a Viking rune, a sad face. Therapeutic? We don't know. Fun? A bit.
Mock interviews for jobs that no longer exist

Pretend you're on a job video call. “My greatest strength is that I can survive on three cans and a lighter.” And laugh. Because why not?
