Highlighting recent fashion and food trends like fisherman sandals and the resurgence of canned fish, the author reflects on feeling overwhelmed by the rapid effect of these trends on culture. Despite criticism of microtrends, there is an appreciation for their aesthetic appeal, suggesting that while the trend cycle is dizzying, some aspects of it can be enjoyable and engaging.
