I've seen a lot of dismal to apocalyptic predictions, especially regarding the US. I want to hear your positive predictions. It could be as broad or as specific as you like.

I'm trying to be optimistic that this is the year I get control of my body. It's a plan I make every year and fail every year.

My body has been through a lot - cancer twice - and I owe it so much for sticking with me and surviving.

But it needs to be looked after now. It needs to stop being abused by food and my mental state. It deserves a break and a healthy new mindset.

I hope I don't write this same thing next year, or before it's too late.

Obesity is a horrible, all-consuming mental illness. For those of you that say "stop eating so much" or "eat healthy".... it's not that easy when your mind is your biggest enemy. Have some compassion, and pray you never know what it's like.

    I'd love for this to be real because it means they're actually paying attention to what's going on and not just what's being said. I don't mean to alarm anyone but I'm still pointing out to my maga coworkers that some things things they complain about actually were put into law by their Republicans. They don't care.......they don't care. Anything is better than "the left".

    More people will turn to traditional skills to attain as much self-sufficiency as possible. Gardening, canning, farming, carpentry, sewing etc... Can't afford a house on my salary, I'll learn to build my own!

    I predict we will gain some very interesting scientific knowledge from the Parker Solar Probe in 2025. For those who do not know, this probe just got it's first taste of our sun's corona on Dec.24th.

    To stop the probe from burning up the scientists are only using it at night. 🚀

    I think you're dead on about this, except that it will be because we're forced to due to resellers/scalpers driving up the prices of everything!

    We no longer hope for better worlds. I no longer have any optimism.

    That _exactly_ what evil forces need to thrive! Good people doing _nothing_, letting evil spread everywhere. No way! Always fight back! And always support good causes. 👍

    I think more people are seeing not only the benefit of eating a fully plant based diet, but actually becoming a true vegan and avoiding the mass cruelty that is rampant . I think eyes are finally ( slowly) opening.❤️🤞🏻

    I am slowly heading more and more plant based. Health benefits and better for the planet eventually. The current farming industry, supporting the meat industry is unsustainable and is ravaging the Earth. Whilst asking everyone to turn away from meat is a big ask, if we at least worked on halving our meat consumption then go from there, the planet might have a chance.

    There are no positive predictions for 2025-2029. The American majority has made this country catastrophic. If you are Black, Jewish, Gay, an immigrant (which was welcomed with that "Statue of Liberty" ...liberty which no longer exists...or any minority...poor or smart...you are f'cked.

    That Bored Panda deletes their stupid "premium" subscription, or everybody switches to Reddit or something funny... r/unexpectedchaos delivers far better content than this shithole. The censoring is outrageous, as is the requirement to pay for dark mode. Lol, no, I will not f*****g do that. I will protect my eyes and go to a better website. This is my hope. My other hope is my 30 year old Saab convertible finally starts.
