Totally, I don't normally like to open up in GBS but things have me seriously on edge.

This war has been going for ages but seems to be escalating, relations are tense and opinions are divided, no one can agree on a solution or who to back.

I'm pretty sure wizard hands or pencil master is going to murder the other to cement their poo poo posting throne.

How can you be anxious about the future, it's the ultimate blowoff problem. You'll be dead before the future ever actually shows up

This displeases Dev- ..van. Shut up.
Best case scenario that doesn’t involve winning the lottery, I’ll die on my feet at 95 (there’s no way I’m being granted an early reprieve from this nonsense) after having my head partially severed by a sword made from a sharpened lawnmower blade when a horde of Gen *infinity symbol* raiders storm the gates of the Walmart owned town I’m greeting for because I can’t afford to retire.

EDIT: between now and then will mostly be about purchasing a series of fancier tvs and hamburgers every time I realize I still can’t buy a house.

I think the future is going to be fairly awful but I won't be there for it, nor do I intend to have any kids who will have to live through it. Best of luck to future people.

It won't stay up there that long. It'll fall to earth within our lifetimes probably if it hasn't already.

No, that car won't be coming back to Earth. It was supposed to wind up near Mars but ended up missing by many millions of miles, and is now in an orbit around the sun until it eventually hits something or the orbit decays enough.

As others have said, it won't last too long.

So take heart, that the two Voyager spacecraft will outlive humanity and maybe even the Earth itself, hurtling into the void, forever. They got nudes on them too!

In the future Jesus will come to earth and franchise a McDonalds. People will expect Judgement Day but all they're going to get is 30 years of a very well managed McDonalds where the employees are actually happy and the food is above average, having performed this miracle, he will die of sleep apnea at the age of 56. It will take them three days to find the body.

We're totally hosed because the oceans are going to die and that's where we get most of our oxygen. The Human race will die off and then hopefully we'll have a return to nature but there will still be like a couple hundred million humans alive across the world.

Reading up on it more Wikipedia says Elon Musk’s car may collide with the Earth many millions of years in the future, which seems stupid enough that it will definitely happen

How I feel about the future is that it sucks to be the cockroach guy that gets hit by Elon Musk’s car

On one hand, I'm a marine biologist so it can get exhausting seeing every data trend you analyze go in the wrong direction.

On the other hand, we are learning so much about our past mismanagement of resources and how to (theoretically) do things the right way, and that gives me hope.

Not enjoying seeing all the American political BS seep into Canada lately tho.
