Have you noticed? We did a 5x speed-run of 1920s, rhyming 10y of history in just 2y, and are already into 1930s rhyming. If this continues we’ll be done with 1930s by 2025, have an abbreviated 1y version of WW2 (Taiwan?) in 2027, and hit 1945 rhyming by 2028. New Sputnik moment by 2030. Gonzo accelerationism ftw
