Definitely transitional. The early 2020s in general remind me of the early 90s where culture just doesn't know what to replace at this point; it just feels kinda directionless. I can say that the Y2K/2000s nostalgia entered the mainstream. Tiktok continues to influence pop culture. We got a new president and new game consoles.

I don’t see anything to make it transitional. Covid doesn’t really have any bearing, Biden hasn’t offered anything new or distinct, or really changed the political divide or general dynamic. It’s still mostly like the late 10s minus some dead or dying trends and a few changes. PS5 is much more widespread and popular now as opposed to earlier this year.

Pop culturally right now seems to be in that late 2018-2019 phase, with fading 2010s elements, backlash against the 2010s, some new elements. Trends from late 2018-2019 have not been discontinued or ended yet. I actually saw a PS5 section in Best Buy today. Would you say 9th generation gaming took off? I think we’re still in 8th generation gaming era of the mid to late 2010s. I think the PS5 is always selling fast, super popular in comparison to the earlier this year. I think it’s the odd exception, not sure about 9th generation taking off as a whole. I think until we get into a place we’re we have a solid grasp of real and actual 2020s culture and style that we can tell is visibly competing with a bigger chunk of seriously dying 2010s culture side by side we can then say we are transitioning. Right now trying to figure out what is even 2020s and even that is not really working because there aren’t enough real changes. Its barely transitioning, since the base elements aren’t distinct or relevant enough or haven’t taken shape yet We are like in 1986 and trying to figure out late 80s/early 90s will be like. Not even tbh

Not even tbh I feel like you are underestimating the events that have been going on since Covid started. Have you even seen the latest fashion? Baggy pants are the rage now, quite distinct from the very skinny fitting trends from the last decade. A lot of the hot artists of today weren’t even around in 2018. The wearing of face masks and cancellations of mass events would be even unthinkable in 2019. PS5 and Xbox X sales are starting to skyrocket too. We may not completely have any idea what the 2020s are but it is sure thing that the 2010s spirit has faded away.

Mentioned those before, there are some changes, still not enough transitional material.

Early 2020’s with late 2010’s influences. The school year seemed to lean more early 2020’s (especially after Biden was inaugurated) but I don’t think we’re 100% in 2020’s culture yet. The September-December 2020 portion of the school year is probably the 50/50 period. I think right now as we speak, it’s probably about 65-70% early 2020’s culture.

Leans more into early 2020s than late 2010s with the pandemic, Biden's presidency, and 9th gen gaming. But we're definitely not into full 2020s culture yet.
