Mass society + mass production + mass consumption = an insane amount of stuff.

We’re living through a major world-historical inflection point.

The very special period of Peak Everything probably extends over a couple of hundred years.

The gradual realization of “All Downhill From Here” figures to have a major impact on the culture. No one can know exactly how the process will unfold.
