The Average Male Fantasy: Job Security in a Blade Runner Universe
In a world where neon dreams blur with concrete nightmares, the average male fantasy isn’t luxury or power—it’s something far more elusive: job security.
We visualized this modern myth in a Blade Runner-style vaporwave cityscape—where our armored office knight sits under the glow of a thousand flickering signs, staring into a terminal that reads: “JOB SECURITY: 100%.” The scene pulses with saturated purples and pinks, drones buzz through vertical highways in the sky, and advertisements dance on the sides of glass towers.
Why job security?
Because in this fractured dystopia of late capitalism, real peace doesn’t come from flying cars—it comes from knowing you’ll still be useful tomorrow.
This piece reflects the quiet hope of every man crushed between automation and inflation:
“Let me keep my desk. Let me pay rent. Let me matter.”
Surrounded by synthetic foxes, chrome birds, and ghostly billboards, our character isn’t chasing glory. He’s protecting a paycheck in a system designed to make him obsolete.
It’s dark. It’s funny. It’s painfully real.
