Genesis's 1986 video for Land of Confusion completely messed with my head as a child, but in hindsight I realize, helped me understand the world *was* crazy, and that everyone knew it.

How long before Siri can describe to me via my AirPods the images being texted to me while mowing the lawn? Those are the kinds of things I think about... as I am being texted images while mowing the lawn. 🙃
