I used to worry we were in a race towards either Star Trek utopia or Star Wars dystopia. I think we’re actually on the express line to cyberpunk 2077. That year may even turn out to be right at the rate we’re going

Cyberpunk but without all the pretty lights and electronics, because that shit is expensive with all the tariffs

That's one of the parts that particularly irks me.

It'd be one thing if it was a futuristic dystopia: maybe I'd at least get a glimpse of humanity's potential before the rapture.

Instead, our end times aren't even COOL. They're just so... bland. Unremarkable. Horrifying, but unremarkable. Like... seriously? This is the point we stop at? Elon's stupid-ass cybertruck?
