Since the joke of “that was not on my 20XX bingo card” is so popular and we’re facing a dangerous year in front of us, what’s on your 2025 bingo card?
here are some of mine with varying degrees of confidence,
- Taylor Swift gets in controversy over something dumb
- U.S. nationwide HRT ban proposed
- Bluesky gets advertisements
- Florida gets exactly 3 hurricanes
- some sort of glass shortage
- coca cola gets in a lawsuit
- skibidi toilet creator does something controversial
- Elon musk tries to buy Wikipedia
Of all the horrible things on your list this is the worst. If people can’t get insurance they can’t get a mortgage. People can’t buy a house without a mortgage. Housing prices will collapse. And do you know who’s going to buy them for pennies on the dollar? Corporations, private equity, and billionaires. The economy will do a repeat the 2008 mortgage crisis, millions in the middle class will find themselves poor, many will be homeless.
It’s also the one most likely to happen because it’s already started.
