RE: Memoir Monday #26 (9/2-9/8) - How do you think the world will be different in 30 years?

Haha, those flying cars have been promised for a very long time! I can't imagine them being impossible unless they operated themselves. Whenever I see video footage of Dubai or some Asian cities it looks a lot like the future that was being predicted when I was a child in the 1970's. That's not so much the case in America. Speaking of sci-fi, Star Trek has had a pretty decent track record when it comes to predictions.

Sort:  

Some strive toward futuristic looking technological life as mentioned in Star Trek. All could backfire and we end up going backward repeating scorched-earth starting over again.

Predicting which trajectory we end up on, not easy as we sit in an uncomfortable world where people are being failed by current leaders.

Yes, I could have gone down a very dark road with this prompt but chose, instead, to have a little fun with it. The western world is not on a good trajectory right now. I hope we can recover from this malestrom of hate and division against each other and focus on all the things we actually need to to change our situation for the better.

My head spins simply thinking of the illogical way things have panned out over the last few years, a ship sailing without a north star for sure.
