The apocalypse is a bit less cool than I expected.

Is anyone else vaguely disappointed that our post apocalyptic world still has McDonalds but no androids?  I was led to believe… 

I mean…  All the futuristic movies show cool things even when it’s horrific.  But we just have Orange Mold in the White House and the impossible burger.  Our AI is more annoying than Agent Smith scary.  Well, perhaps the birth of Agent Smith  is pretty disturbing but we had to call it the Hugging Face incident, which pretty well defangs the Agent.    

It feels like someone cut the budget on real life.  I mean… a hovering skateboard would have been nice.  

This post is an edited version of something I wrote in 2017. How naive I was to think that chaos was the End Times.  No past self, you still have a decade or so for it marinate.
