The strapline says “nostalgia” but we are in a cost-of-living crisis, the climate apocalypse is starting to kick in and there are conflicts happening that some have said resemble the precursors to WW1 and WW2.
And while things have been worse since the noughties (what are we calling the 2010s? The Blunder Years? The Enshittening) we seem to have fallen off a cliff half-way through. The Weaselverse was a funny idea thrown out there but it would explain a lot.
I wondered whether it is just some recentist bias, so, being a masochist, I went through every year and came up with a “shit years” list:
1997 and 2020
2019
2021 into 2022
2018
2017
Now that’s part of the 20-25 year (generational) cycle of The Reckoning, so is personal to me, but that weasal fucked me up good and proper.
