What's something completely normal today that future generations will look back on and be absolutely baffled by? (sh.itjust.works)

i'm talking about the mundane stuff, like how we still carry around a bunch of plastic cards or wait for water to boil in a kettle instead of instantly. or maybe just our collective obsession with short form video? keen to hear what makes you shake your head thinking about the future.

I certainly hope this becomes true but plastic is damn useful.

On my own journey to reduce plastics in my life, I went back to cotton t-shirts. However it’s been enough years that they need to be replaced but the rayon blend t-shirts of the same age are still nice looking

We can at least cut back but it’s not going to be easy
