Welcome to Space. What were you expecting? Its a dangerous place. Thank you for investing. Go there for your rota, there for your orders. Fill up these quotas, we'll bill for your quarters. Report to your foreman, but watch for marauders, 'cause if you get eaten, there's fees for your mourners. Prosperity's there in the care of Magnates. In Halcyon, heaven awaits. Did you think it was supposed to look like the poster? "It mostly does" oh, if you'd only looked closer.
We work, to earn the right to work to earn the right to work, to earn the right to work. To earn the right to give. Ourselves the right to buy. Ourselves the right to live. To earn the right to die.
All these stories, video games, boosk, movies, etc, made to warn us about this as a possible future, and so many of ya'all are running full tilt toward it like it's the epitome of society. Yet somehow, in that same push, KNOW it is the near worse example we could ever hope for, and would only be for the brief breath before we are dust and forgotten to time. How many other lifeforms will we drag down with us? Will there even BE any life left?. This isn't a good thing.
That reminds me of the California wildfires of 2020. Someone took a drone and flew around San Francisco then added music from Blade Runner. It looked like a post apocalypse movie. The color was not edited.
Breathing that shit was hard AF. Even in Sacramento, it was hella smoky. One of the reasons I don’t miss CA (other is CoL). Miss CA for everything else

hogeyegrex
I remember that day. Walked out my door, looked around, and said fuck this. Went back to bed.
Yes, it really looked like that. Eerie as fuck. The next two days were similar, but not as bad. The orange day was incredible.
Breathing was… interesting.
FaeVikingPrincess
I went outside started coughing from the fact it was "snowing" ash and went back inside and decided I didn't need to get any snacks at that time.
BeerCir
The picture of a McDonalds on fire in the background with ash flying past is an image I wont forget, some real sci-fi shit but real.
totheredwoods
I went out surfing in Santa Cruz that day - ash and ashen leaves and pine needles raining down. What a time!

Why Robert Miles instead of Vangelis?
GuitarGeorge
God I love 90s EDM!
BillyM00n
Needs way more Vangelis on that soundtrack
Pulsahr
I know the tune but I can't name it, would you mind sharing your knowledge?
TrumpRapesAndEatsChildren0002
The tune in the above video is Children by Robert Miles
BillyM00n
Vangelis was the composer for the music layered over this comment/video /gallery/pgjoeFe/comment/2505617747
Pulsahr
After a bit of research it is "Children" from Robert Miles.
BillyM00n
Are you talking about OP's video or the one I was referring to?
SpotlightKryptonite
Sounds a lot like the NCIS theme music, with small differences
Outerdimensional
If you mean the music from the video at the top, it's 'Children [Dream Version]' by Robert Miles

Or maybe a slightly slower version of the track.
