Yeah, I read about that. [because, surprise! Sharky actually read the entire binder, and he even internalized, like, 60% of its contents. he's also got his own theories about how things work around here, which he normally wouldn't share, but Pratt is in pretty dire straits, here.]
I dunno what it is that does it permanently, man. All I know is that, like... Some of the people here, no matter how much they try or how hard they adapt, they just don't wanna be here. All the names you said that I recognize, they were never like us, y'know? Meanwhile, you, me, Ava, we're still here, 'cos instead of losing it over not being able to go home, we're like, "okay, fine, cool, we can live here then. We can live somewhere else. We can make plans for a life after the end of the world."
[which... yeah. that's all this really is. it's the bunker-space that spans the time between the Collapse and the eventual new world. they just have to be willing to wait and wait and wait -- until the right moment shows itself and they can throw open the hatch.]
It really, really sucks, dude. No arguments here. [just a lot of hugging, tbh] But it's gonna be okay.
