Lol I'm literally gonna build a bunker to store all of my art work and writings, no joke, I'm that arrogant. I'm even gonna have a computer hooked up to a peddle powered generator or something that will also have more writings and my vidya magnum opus. Now I gotta figure out how to make sillicon last for centuries. My scream to the void will last goddamit. My work will come to represent humanity as a whole if it's ever discovered by aliens

Of all the generations (i.e., of all generations) who made this prediction, we have the most reason for it. When one of the most sophisticated computers predicts collapse by the end of the century, consistently, and the entire system is more or less predicated on the use of less sophisticated computers, I think it's a pretty safe bet.

But I don't understand his rationale. To me, that means I should just spend my time reading and writing, fuck posterity.

You're a fool if you think humanity will go extinct from climate change. The elites of the world are too smart to let their blood go extinct. They already have plans in place to survive and repopulate the world with their offspring. YOU and I and everyone we love will probably die in a horrible way, yes, but humanity is here to stay as long as some unpredictable meteor doesn't plow into us and kill everyone.

"Climate change" is a meme.
However, solar cycles and an imminent grand solar minimum is not. So write that book and some poor chuck can have some entertainment before turning your tale into fuel for his fire.

When asked what he’d do if the world was ending tomorrow, Werner Herzog said, “Start a new movie.”
