Okay, maybe Lord Whorfin and John Bigbooté aren’t part of the picture. But, nonetheless, we’re up against a world-ending catastrophe, as Planet X

will pass between the Earth and the Sun causing a pole shift in 2003. The pole shift will set off worldwide cataclysms — massive earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and hurricane force winds.

Planet X (now visible to the naked eye!) explains everything from SARS to global warming to giant squid:

Planet X is affecting Earth in a number of different ways as it is approaching the solar system... extreme weather, earthquakes, volcanic activity, meteors, odd animal behaviour, unusual or rampant disease outbreaks, and other stories pertinent to earth changes.

The site also has handy tips on supplies, food, and postapocalyptic gardening. If you haven’t already started preparing for the Aftertime, you’d better get to it — the Pole Shift is due any day now.
