Social media continues to condense. Infini-scrolling image/emoticon boards become prevalent. Language condenses further into consumer-capital and brands become abstract descriptors - "That's very Apple". This is related to early acceptance of 'brand behaviour'.

The silence of western green spaces is gone. You no longer feel at peace in parks. 3d printing quickly destroys entire industries. First generation of Crispr-esque failures. Fashion depletes into minimalist status signalling for males, and libidinal signalling for women.

Fatigue, mental illness and bad nutrition accelerate further and public meltdowns become common, weekly, daily occurrences. First 100,000+ wipeout from chem-resistant superstrain. Beaches become horrible adult-infant playgrounds.

TV transforms into an odd fluxing signal that intervenes when one isn't being entertained. Healthy food gets smaller, unhealthy bigger. Vidya gets so good that swathes of younger generations become reclusive and antisocial.

Nudity becomes publicly normal, public masturbation is fine if a cubicle is used. Mainstream TV is largely pornographic. We still use phones - headgear has to completely transform to be used - but they're imbedded in forearms.

There's 1,000,000+ currencies that if consistent with a larger currency can be used anywhere. Larger amounts of jobs become remote and thus many smaller towns fall into disrepair. Will continue this as I think of more...

Multitude of websites come into existence for condensing media into bites. Movies into minutes, books into a paragraph etc. There's a transparently Ed, Edd and Eddy attitude to fads, some lasting as little as a day, but virally fired out into 3d printers, onto live t shirts etc.

Companies will look into your health information when your productivity drops. Full consumer-season linkage: NYE>Easter>Summer Fun>Halloween>Xmas>NYE. Interspersed with smaller (Still Paddy's Day) connectors. You will always be missing out on something. Perpetual advert-anxiety

Brands, companies and even personas become known by simple abstract appearances. Cadbury = Purple Coke = Red Apple = Egg shell white Amazon = Orange Google = A faint green Lesser brands are fucked, names longer than 3 words take too long to read.

Don't act like you've actually read a brand/company name in years. Your brain calculates the rough shape and colour in seconds. You don't *read* adverts you *process* them.

As more and more 'violent' tools/weapons get banned, people will begin to use more innovative methods of attack. Though we're already seeing this: Cars, fireworks etc. Anything can become an innovative source of pain, method of defense in the hands of an ape.

Unfortunately for anyone's brain that has developed prior to 2020, no amount of neuroplasticity meltdown will allow for the fluctuations needed to assimilate the amount of data soaring at you.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Have you read Aldous Huxley books or studied the signs of the end of time according to Islam (Hadith and Quran)? because this list reads like things from the aforementioned sources.

I've read Brave New World and Doors of Perception. This goes deeper.

Doors of perception.. great book. Really, a couple of your points were similar to Islamic Hadith. I don't class myself as Muslim but find it fascinating.https://youtu.be/d8JQqXf-Jv8

At this point all religions adopted some vague eschatology...
