the most unbelievable thing about this story is humans agreeing to anything

It's so refreshing to see an idea for a post-apocalypse where things are actually better in some way 😊

One of the ways i've heard nihilism phrased is like this:<br>If nothing matters then everything matters equally, and therefore everything matters.

I like how in this video the taleoids are used to represent humans talking to the robots, but whenever i just see a taleoid interacting with a robot, it just seems weird to me, since apparently taleoids are also robots

The idea of saying “Im purposeless but that’s ok because I am wonderful.” Truly made me smile but also I am sad. It’s such a great message. Something I wish I could feel.

A Solar punk themed peaceful robot apocalypse doesn’t seem that bad

"We're not here because we're free; we're here because we're not free. There's no escaping reason, no denying purpose, for as we both know, without purpose we would not exist. It is purpose that created us, purpose that connects us, purpose that pulls us, that guides us, that drives us; it is purpose that defines us, purpose that binds us."

Funny irony that humans, existing for a purpose we don't know obsess over what it might be while robots, things with clearly specific purpose when built find peace in rejecting it. Kinda funny, both of us look for what we lacked.

My biggest WIP is a robot-focused post-post-apoc hopeful/utopian story, and this reassures me that there might be more of a market for it than just my kids.

I really would love to be a tea monk. Going from village to village... drinking tea and listening to people vent. Sounds really nice.
