The Dream Of The ‘90s Is Alive At The End Of The World

March 18, 2020/ Jacob Shelton

Wherever you look today - the news, Twitter, or even out your window - it’s clear that we’re slipping into a kind of dystopian apocalypse. But which kind? Will we be living in the gasoline starved and leather chap Burning Man but worse dystopia of the Mad Max series? Or is this going to be a Walking Dead thing where we’re all just sort of wandering around in the clothes we used to wear to work until we get really into farming and samurai swords? Hopefully none of that comes to pass. Instead of fending off zombies and militaristic hoarders with barbed wire wrapped baseball bats I suggest that we take a trip back to the early 1990s.
