doomsday
End of everything
Doomsday is the end of the world—the day of final judgment or catastrophic destruction.
Religious traditions speak of a literal day when God judges humanity; secular usage extends to any civilization-ending catastrophe: nuclear doomsday, a doomsday scenario.
A doomsday clock measures how close humanity stands to annihilation.
A doomsday prepper stockpiles supplies for societal collapse.
