Robots

Are you alone?
Have your friends been replaced by robots?
The robots are everywhere.
Have you ever imagined watching a sunset on Mars?
A robot is doing that right now.
You would freeze, suffocate, burn up, then turn into meaningless space dust,
Only to be one day collected
By a robot.
Every day, robots are taking care of more and more for you.
You are free.
So, now what will you do?
Let me help you with a visualization:
Imagine you are in a desert, staring at the blinding mid-day sun.
In your left hand, a jewel-encrusted goblet of bubble tea.
In your right hand, a string of balloons.
On your head is a sparkling cardboard top hat.
I just threw that in for fun.
Your stomach is growling, and you wish you didn’t eat that clam burrito.
With the scorching heat, the indigestion, and the search for meaning,
you are now bursting with effervescent life force.
It shoots from your fingertips in lightning bolts
Suddenly, a ferocious polar bear is chasing you across the desert sands.
He wants that bubble tea.
Shoot him with your life-lightning!
Now, imagine the polar bear is really…
A robot.
