Personally, as is often noted, “Idiocracy” is probably tops for current events… but for the farther future, I’d go Blade Runner Universe, most likely… just for the sheer scale of total biosphere degradation and megacorp control. How about you?

    Children of men.

    Plastics that have accumulated in our bodies are going to have massive impacts on our bodys regular functions. Covid ran rampant causing mental decline and increased weaknesses to milder diseases, leading to further degradation of our body’s regular function. Authoritarianism is deep set into our politics Climate change is forcing more and more people into refugee status. The rich and wealthy continue to violate our planet for their own gain, building themselves bunkers and personal armies to defend themselves from the consequences of their actions.

      For me it’s more the general feeling of everything going to shit and there’s nothing we can do to stop it.

      Our legacy
      fades and melts away
      'cause tomorrow
      may not ever be

      So we dance and sing
      try to bear the thought
      of approaching
      the end of our time
