You will hear it if you listen closely. The wind is whispering.
The vibe shift is when one trend dies and another emerges, and it has been teasing us for months with the TikTok revivals. This week, The Cut's Allison P. Davis proclaimed "A Vibe Shift Is Coming."
The vibe is about to change. Who survives is the real question.
In her piece, Davis asks about her own survival, and she has a choice to make: Do I try to opt in to whatever trend comes next, or do I accept that my last two good years were spent on my couch gobbling antidepressants and wearing cute clothes.
We put together a guide of everything you need to know to survive the shift from interviews with survival vibeists and historians.
Stay calm and savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay savesay Humans have survived vibe shifts for thousands of years. Humans have been driven to survive vibes by our innate desire to stay relevant since the very first vibe, when humans learned how to make fire. They were able to get through this, and so can you.
Failing to plan is planning to fail. Pack a bag of essentials, study flash cards of past vibe eras, and check out the vibe forecasters on TikTok. It is not clear what the next vibe might be. To be safe, we recommend packing items that indicate your cultural ability and thus your ability to adapt, such as wired headphones, which are a timeless aura.
You should be on the lookout for misinformation. People are going to say that the vibe shift won't happen. These people are dangerous and wrong. It will be difficult for many to shift from one vibe to the next. Expect rebuttals and think pieces.
Some people claim that they don't care whether or not they survive the vibe shift. Immediately distance yourself from them. They will bring you down with their beliefs.
Wear lots of layers so you can be ready to remove items of clothing according to the new vibe. You can dress up or down depending on the vibes. Don't buy into fast fashion.
When you enter the new vibe, keep your phone charged and contact family and friends.
The water vibe is highly volatile as we have seen from previous micro-vibes such as banning plastic straws, carrying a HydroFlask, and the sparkling water wave of 2018). Staying hydrated is a must if you are not able to immediately access the new vibe.
Trying too hard can kill a vibe. Stay loose, and enjoy the ride. Your vibe survival is dependent on it.
