The Next Day: Transitions, Change and Moving Forward is a banal self-indulgent brag rag crammed with cliches and soured by boring, bad writing. It betrays a profound lack of self awareness.

Earth burns while
Billionaires earn
We're living in tents
Fuck the government

Society's deranged
Time for radical change
Sharpen the blades
We're going to Hades

It’s guillotine time!
Get in line!
