    Decent living conditions… meaning what, exactly? 250 square feet with no windows, shared shower and bathroom with 11 other people?

    The depressed goth gamer in that cartoon would have to wear the same unwashed clothes for a week between hand washings, and in any case, that’s all the clothes they have.

    It’s sad, but without the tremendous fossil inputs we’ve been gobbling for over a century, poof, we’re back to an agrarian 19th century life style. At best. With the concomitant 1-2 billion world population. And hand made clothes from natural fibers. Bye bye synthetics, bye bye engineered detergents, bye bye dyes, bye bye individual front loading washing machines.
