Highlight Of The Decade

To be clear, Vine is the only good thing to come out of the past ten years. Here is an incomplete list of Vines that make life worth living: You Are My Dad (You're My Dad!); Two Bros Chillin' In A Hot Tub; Grinch Yoga; Free Shavocado; Chris, Is That A Weed?; I'm An Adult Virgin; ...Adam!; I Could've Dropped My Croissant!; Are They Helium Balloons?; Ninki Minjaj; Well, When Life Gives You Lemons; 69 Cents (You Know What That Means); Who Is She?; Wii Toddler Bowling; Sneezed On The Beat/Beet; Is There Anything Better Than Pussy?; T-T-T-T-TARGET; Road Works Ahead... I could go on but, honestly, I'm just making myself sad. RIP Vine. Those that shine brightest burn quickest.

Prediction For Next Decade

Best case, things are similar to, but more sustainably minded than, now. Worst case, those of us not lost in environmental cataclysms will be left scavenging carrion in a Mad Max hellscape because Scott Morrison and the world's fellow bumblefucks-in-chief didn't get their shit together and take any meaningful action on the climate crisis while they still had a semblance of a chance. Hell of a coin flip, hey.
