what's about to happen to us

Perhaps this is what Argüélles meant about the Galactic Synchronization that's going to hit us when the Mayan Calendar goes dead in 2012. Exponential expansion of consciousness. Things flying at us way too fast for us to handle.
Like functioning in your sleep. Simultaneous events going on. You're in more than one place at once. Pastpresentfuture all happening at the same time. Jumbled images careening in multiple directions. Air traffic control needed on your own thoughts.
Diary of 9/11 running. Events that changed the world. How to present it? Put it on a CD, sell on Internet, make money? No time, recorder's running and the fuse is lit; people are waiting for this information. Vision of man in North Tower. Wears glasses, eyes wide, tearing at his shirt. He didn't survive. But he called on phone, saw people in cockpit as plane screamed toward impact. Horrible dream we all have. What's it like in those last few moments? Tiny silhouettes holding hands, falling. Would they find them in the pyroclastic dust? That's the past. What did it mean? Sorry. We can’t tell you what happened. It’s classified. National security, you know.

Humans have made the world their toilet bowl and are now caught in the whirlpool flow. Look! You can see the little people waving as they get sucked into the maw. Ah, the Coreolis force. Sometimes once you get things started it's not so easy to stop them. Dick Cheney needs to be on TV doing Tidy Bowl commercials. Flush the little people away and we'll have a peaceful planet, it's that simple. Only don't ask us how we did it. You won't want to know.

The future is a shimmering pastiche of hope and dreams, all the latest gadgets and new kinds of pleasure. They learned to kill at the mall, you know. At the arcade, where honesty is who you can steal a quarter from?
When was the last time you looked your children in the eyes? When they were on your knee? And who are they now? And who are we?
Worried about the future? Relax. It’s only a dream. But why is it you are telling me you are awake?
When the powers that be ran out of rival societies to conquer and exploit and indigenous innocents to conquer and enslave, they devised an ingenious plan to perpetuate their demonic, moneymaking war machine — they invented fictional characters to pursue and annihilate, and recruited impoverished souls to act out these roles.
