the fact that Barb and Howard get divorced is kind of funny to me in (ahem), ghoulish way. like the world is gonna end. you’re gonna waste your time with paperwork? and in the present he still clearly considers her family so like. it’s just idk, it’s kind of funny in that fucked up extremely human way.

but i guess it’s also about refusing the vault, taking a stand. saying you and Janey can go underground but I’m dying in the nuclear war.
