The world is screwed. It's Over. It's done!!! The Future is No More!

@yowser I've got one more for the list from a medic friend, who queried the consultant notes.

MAH - mad as hatter
 
'Sunset'


This program is being sunset on (date).




What happened to retired, terminated or discontinued? Even just 'will end'.
 
The future, and honestly the present, overall is bleak to me. I'm tired of how we're progressing. I really didn't want to make it this far in life as I watch various scifi movie plots and setting take effect. A lot of this so-called "progression" is bullshit to me. Some things I've wanted to do for a living just isn't the same, it's like I missed the golden era, like when I drove a cab briefly. This new sociopolitical enviroment is sickening. I'm happy to be engaged because dating is fucking trash, and most of my past relationships seemed to be pure luck, anyway. The tech sector has became ass, so has the automotive one. And the best we can do is deal with it. I wasn't able to prosper in my youth, so at far too close to forty, I got nothing but struggles.
 
I understand how "the future" can be scary. How change makes most everyone uncomfortable. However, the future is also where hope and planning come to shine. Ain't gonna clamber up on a soapbox, just as bad as it is gonna get, it's also gonna get good. Heaven for the spider is hell for the fly.

This is nothing new. Back in the 1980s, if you heard an upbeat song, chances were it was about nuclear war, drugs and addiction, suicide, or some other nastiness. Seriously, "1999" by Prince? "Vamos A La Playa"? "99 Luftballon"? "Big In Japan" by Alphaville? "Two Tribes" by Frankie Goes To Hollywood? Any of a hundred more songs? That was the 1980s saying, "The end is nigh."
