I feel like maybe around 2012 the whole concept of eras died.

Like I can clearly visualize items/people/media from the 60s/70s/80s/90s/00’s, but everything is homogenized now and there’s really no “style of the time” either. I think everything from 2013+ will just be remembered as a malaise era, if anything. Maybe the style of the 2050’s will be post cyberpunk apocalyptic? I have no idea.

    I dunno. The 80s had a very particular vibe. When the 90s came along, it just felt different, even as I lived through it.

    I think the 2000’s didn’t feel that much different than that 2010’s.

    But yeah maybe it’s recency bias.
