Swamptime keeps on slipping, slipping

FROM THE SWAMP: Juandissimo Magnifico got toasted off that tub of tequila windshield fluid we found in the parking lot. Now, due to an accidental stroke of magic, culture is bending back into itself. In short, as Ashes' sim time outpaces our real time, our real culture is rewinding across sim time. This swamp correspondent thinks it's gonna be chill and mostly benign, but, here's what to know about the re-simulation of public art and leisure.
Can Juandissimo Magnifico undo the spell? I guess, yeah, but let's see how this plays out.
Are there parameters to this? We'll leave politics and the science/technology sector out of this. It's a reverse sim of entertainment.
Is the culture reversal happening at the pace of the basketball future? Still getting adjusted to this, because I skipped orientation to see Anora. Missed that whole thing last year, and I want to check that box before the train leaves the station. But yeah, from what I've gathered, this will go considerably faster.
Is there really a train leaving the station? Dudes, it's a friggin' TRAIN. It's got me like this. Remember in Fairly Odd Parents where one of the fairies transformed into something to fulfill the wish? It's like that. Juandissimo Magnifico's smiling face is in the front of the light rail. So ill.
Do basketball outcomes influence the cultural re-do? Great question. Indeed they do! Now, SLN losses don't just disappoint your mom and her round robin pickleball friends. It also disappoints the many creatives and A-listers from your city/state!
Is Garden State going to hold up in the re-sim? Hahahaha of course it is
