This is fully going to be our future. Big programs to "conserve consumer water usage" by limiting residential water pressure and jacking up residential water prices ahem "Via The Free Market", while we dump entire aquifers through some toxic treadmill of Meta coolant machines.

The struggle sessions between people "abusing their water privileges" and the ultra-orthodox "I only use a tablespoon of water a day" terminally online consumer-conservationists (or, at least, their AI-enhanced personas) will be legendary. Enormous threads of people screaming "You're Killing The Planet!" because they posted a picture of boiled potatoes or steamed rice, enhanced and distorted and virally marketed by the Manhattan-Island sized propaganda machines of the future.

Wow. Very well put, indeed.
I would love to read your next book.

Upvoting this felt like I was encouraging the universe to choose this version of the future specifically :/

Really well put though.
