There’s now an Arctic data vault so our cat videos will be safe after the apocalypse

Look, I don't know what else to tell you: We're getting closer and closer to doomsday and people much smarter than I agree. 

In January, the Science and Security Board at The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists officially moved the clock to two-and-a-half-minutes to midnight aka two-and-a-half-minutes until, well, doomsday.
