Oh, that’s still perfectly doable! After all, it’s 5 days away, people get busy, they forget, or didn’t hear about the first or third times around. Hell, by the time doomsday arrives, I’ll have forgotten posting this. So I’d say a last minute post is good.
NASA has been debunking this nonsense for ages. They must want to throttle all the doomsayers.

I don’t mind the world ending again but I wish it would come back in better shape than last time.
