Do you think the year 2024 has a very calm vibe to it?

I am not saying things are amazing or something like that....but the year 2024 appears to be very calm...I felt if as if the planet was going through an unusual mood in the air in the last 4 years...but now things appear more calmer....people have become kinda relaxed...or maybe they are just too tired of everything else...so they everything just appears calm...

Man have you been outside it's like the population has tripled and everyone is in some hurry for nothing since covid lockdowns ended. People look really stressed and depressed from what I see. Plus places are just packed. Never seen business so busy and so much construction and vehicles hauling stuff around. It's like half the population doesn't work real jobs anymore.

It's because all of the media that was created for the sole purpose of stoking tensions in the past has gone out of business or been deemed irrelevant.

Yeah even around 2pm it's super packed out and almost nobody can go to lunch that late. It doesn't make sense. I can't even go anywhere because it's just too busy now. Gym is packed, supermarkets are packed, trails are busy, huge lines of cars everywhere. It's just like in this Will Smith song now

I'd like to know how this is happening because I see it every single day and can't figure it out. Especially with the rising cost of everything. It's like people have no care in the world and unlimited funds.

This

Like 80% of the population or something became rich or retired after lockdowns. There used to be nobody out during the work week.

Better hang on tight because **** is going to get wild when we're closer to the election. It's going to be the most crazy **** that the news won't be able to not report on things.

It’s workplace flexibility. I’ve been logging off midday to lift for years but it’s barely worth it anymore there are so many people there 10-2 it’s kinda like going at 5pm back in the day lol

For example I can make my hours for a week in between 4am-11:30pm M-F. So I assume a lot of other people like that

Places are packed all day though. It's like everyone hit the lottery or something too. People have to be making 125k+ to be living like this.

No way all these people can just change their work hours to 24/7 either lol

It does feel kinda calm for some reason. I think it's because it's a new year and that means Covid is feeling further and further behind.

Times have changed, people like to eat out more and find it more convenient then doing all the hassle of cooking at home or just eating something ordinary from the grocery. Most of the restaurants offer some really tasty food which can be addicting at times.

Now your question of where do they get all the money to do it? It's not like they are eating from a restaurant all the time, you see lots of people out there because the population is also increasing in certain places (people like to flock to major cities for easy access to everything and that includes lots of supermarket, groceries and restaurants). Also you might find out that most of these people don't save money...each to their own....but I feel most of the time eating nice and food of choice overcomes other luxuries in life...
