I suppose the most important thing to have post-apocalypse is a copy of Wikipedia.

The hordes of home videos my dad and me created and all the pictures of family and friends I was able to save.

Everyone should know how absurdly lightweight the old games are. You can have basically every console game rom from Atari 2600 to Nintendo 64 and fit it all in a single dvd (you could even include the emulators, in appimages, apk and .exe). These games are still great, many aged pretty well and all of them will run in any potato with screen. on a no-internet scenario, you could give a kid an old phone full of games that a lot of us dreamed to have acess when we were children. you can transform an actual piece of trash into a machine that carries childhoods of multiple generations. that’s just beautiful.

For post-apocalypse? 君の名は。. Even if it’s in Japanese, with no subtitles. Don’t threaten me with a good time. I used to watch it that way. I still would, but I found some really good subtitles. The film was released outside of Japan as “your name.” (the full-stop is part of the title both ways) but I prefer to call it by its original name in the original glyphs. Both of my computers and my phone (all Apple, so cloud sync) type it if I type the initials of the romanised version of the name (Kimi no Na wa.), period and all. Text replacement, any computer/phone can do it, but it’s nice to have the cloud sync. White whale? Honestly I don’t have one anymore. I used to have a couple, but I found them. There was a movie I was trying to find for years and years, and a game as well, and I’d Google things and it would never come up. These days, you can just ask ChatGPT and it’ll tell you what it is. Now, if it’s something I know what it is but I haven’t obtained it yet? I’d have to say FLAC copies of every record, tape, or CD I’ve ever owned. That includes my siblings and parents as well, so I could throw it on my Plex server. My mother in particular had to get rid of 250+ records. Would be nice to have all that back, digitally. I think I have the important parts of the collection.
