Curiosity is one of the very few reasons I decided to stick around. I have absolutely no hope for the future, but I am curious about how things are going to turn out.

Same! I've made it this far in these times. If nothing else, I'm interested in witnessing the ways r/collapse proceeds.

It's time to make your 2023 bingo card if you haven't already.

I'm thinking Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

I don't know this Marshmallow Man. Explain.

I'm expecting the upcoming water wars to gain mainstream attention. The Colorado River fiasco is already absurd and Arizona, California, Nevada will be especially affected very soon. I think all seven states relying on the Colorado River won't be able to agree to any concessions and will continue to overuse and Mexico will get screwed downriver. And we'll "notice" international water wars because water wars are finally in our consciousness.

I have aliens on reserve -- I don't think they'll appear until 2024 or later.

Right? I’m not quite that far gone yet but I take comfort in the idea that if I ever am I will still stick around just to watch it burn.

Yeah it's a big reason why I've kept going the past 15 years.

It's cool how far technology has come just in my current lifespan, I want to know where it continues to go
