That's rough. Don't wanna go outside, lots of armed masked men outside.
(Am a foreign-born non-white American)
Probably just have to to get a bunch of DVDs and actually get a DVD player that works since the old one is filled with dust and broken. (Or is it a "BluRay" these days?)
I'm probably gonna have to get ham radios, without the internet, there would be a lot more traffic, so I'd probably have to get comfortable using my voice. Probably get a shortwave radio so I get get foreign broadcasts. TV also needs to be replaced.
I'd have to get like actual encyclopedias.
Honestly, it'd be a pain. No piracy is gonna make things cost too much. I doubt Libraries would even have them since they'd all be loaned out.
TLDR: It'd suck, very fucking much.
