The 2010s do have a distinct vibe, it’s just that ever since the recession everything has been generally gloomier and instead of 80s neon graphics and palm tree decor / 90s mtv chic / 00s semi-self-aware sleaze we’re stuck with variations on 2010s batemanesque minimalism
(also it sucks that the 80s were when aids, crack, and the neoliberal transition were most devastating bc it easily had the coolest sensory vibes out of any modern decade)
