FWIW this was because I'd been reading about kids watching FRIENDS on Netflix, becoming giant fans, and not realizing how old it was. In a difficult future, 150 year old stories about decent people being good to each other might have a certain following, like Austen does now.
So take that if it's useful --when playing the near future (and writing it too, I suppose) don't just extend tech, or politics, or the bad things. Extend the pleasant little good bits of culture, too.
There is a tradition of naming private colony ships after Potter schools, too. The MacGuffin missing sleeper ship is THE GRYFFINDOR.
Most of these are just for me.
