Be fitter, be happier
Speak your truth
As I enter this page
I feel we meet together or maybe not
Maybe as we hurtle down the avalanche
To the cul-de-sac
Of a non-descript nowhere land
Where J.G. Ballard once took a stand
Free ports, free -?

Transient meditations
Remote procedures
Slowly the deletion begins
The paragon of virtue
The pinnacle of despair
The apex of denial
The skyscrapers of untruth
Customized feeds
Net neutrality, smart meters
Smart water
Smart fucking motorways
Body positivity
Believe in yourself
Imposter syndrome, fuck that!
I don't want to be admired
I demand no respect
I don't want to be feared
I'd like to enter the gates of oblivion
With a lanyard 'round my neck
An aesthetic so bland and

This song has some amazing components, these components have some pretty good song.
Blimey.
Happy to see that someone expressed the question that I'm sure is going through the minds of many people currently.
If you’re not watching the big picture, now’s the time. Rising costs, geopolitical instability, currency pressure, and social fragmentation are converging.
