Could be material for a novel.
So many relationships would fall apart, so many others would be possible were yesterday they were unthinkable.
So many people would completely lose their identity. And so many others would suddenly feel at peace.
Marketing is completely upended. What even is sexy anymore? To whom and why and how do we even know?
Clothing designers, some will thrive when suddenly it feels as if there are no rules, like you can do anything. Others lose it all together, having no idea what to do.
At the same time, people need to sort people. So I foresee a rise in racism, ageism and other discrimination to maintain largely the same in and out groups. But those first weeks of absolute mayhem that noone understands why it's suddenly mayhem would be beautiful.
