Shape of things to come; Jan 21st 2011 Pat Donovan

THE WAY is open and you shall not be denied.

Communications. Hipsters, trendoids and fashionetas.

Hey, technoids aren't the people to be anymore. Everything is automated now. Politics, all it.

With communication getting even more intense these days... (twits on a global yes/no cycle) it behooves ya to look to the future occasionally. Before it smacks ya in the face, ferinstance.

Anyway, media. That communication stuff. Politicians watching their life's blood pour (and making you poorer).

Getting slapped with all sorts of controls and barriers even as it gets bigger, better, faster, smarter.

Ya think hipsters are obnoxious pretenders and posers now, just wait till yer eco-life is totally controlled by what they're spreading around. Yah, that's right. STDs are the least of the prob here.

The media is the message? 'Form delivery and content'
makes it a POOR info system, and that's the draw for posers.

Hosers, all of 'em. (And 'dang-nab government!' Or “damn the CPR!” . 'Get the hell off my lawn!' works just as well.)

The official line will not only be a life-line, it'll be the ONLY line.
The military-industrial complex will be the last man standing. Unless you count Hollywood.

Ever see a fast line turn into the shaft real quick? You're gonna, real soon now.

Especially if the trendoids have their way with it first.

Betcha the biggest trend is 'Just leave all your money with us!'

Treachery (a system-four function) will become a lifestyle. Not that ads, aids, ADDS will help any of that at all, at all.

Media is dominated by ads, right? Copycat killings making ANY info into applied propaganda is lesson one.

Whattya think fink-world will be, the dis-credit society or Big-Brother collection real-time jay-walking fines?

Perhaps they'll be be creating crimes. Everything Nixon got impeached for is now legal, so it'll probably be 'critics of government' that gets the nod for the lynch-mob of the day.

WHEN YOU WALK the desert of your soul, I will be with you.
(Turning it into a jungle.)

Applied treachery is a system 4 function, along with trying to heal (heel) mother earth. Being bullshit, (being, being there, being in itself) being another existential panic, will promote the growth of such.

So the revolution is made. The power-mad hang themselves by their own petard. Fink-world feeds on finks first. (An actual practice there.)

Gangas, with their emphasis on sex, vengeance and money will result in hardwired chips being stuck in everyone's head.

The harder they squeeze, the more will escape into the wild.

And the jungle will be information management.
