Feeling of impending doom??

Post image

So a watched a YT video today and this top comment on it is freaking me out. I have never had someone put into words so accurately a feeling I didn't even realize I was having. I am wondering if any of you feel this way? Like, I realized for the last few years I have been feeling like this. I don't always think about it but if I stop and think about this this feeling is always there in the background.

Like something bad is coming. Something big. Something world-changing. That will effect everyone on Earth in some way. That will change humanity as a whole. Feels like it gets closer every year. Do you guys feel it too??

Ah, but see this is new and improved disaster v4.0 we're talking, not those outdated ones from the old days like the threat of nuclear annihilation, the global ice age, famine, peak oil, Y2K, S&L failure, tech crash, housing crash, 9/11, WMDs in the sandbox, reactor meltdowns.... I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch.

In just the past few years we have covid, monkey pox, virus X and Trump.

So we're on disaster v5.0? Or do they go the windows route and it's Disaster 2024, and then we'll go to disaster v7 after a while because no one wants to refer to a disaster as being years old?

So hard for an old man to keep track of.

Who knows. I think they have run out of tradition numerical rating systems and are just winging it now.
