If You Are Going Through An Existential Crisis, These 50 Funny Philosophical Memes Might Help

We were asked at a class, which robots we knew about in our country. Dishwasher and washing machine were not even mentioned. Because, what was once robots are now just machines. 🤷🏻🤷🏻

I saw an excellent reel on FB talking about how robots can't possibly take over on things like laundry and cooking, as there are a myriad of small human interactions that go into thee relatively simple tasks - sorting, checking pockets, picking the correct cycle for the load, folding and putting away; deciding on a menu, shopping for ingredients, chopping, adding at the right time and temperature, tasting . . . We have machines to make it easier, but they can't do everything.

You're already living it.

Yup--read it while you can.

Both 1984 and Animal farm Arévalo absolutely incredible books!

It's great for a school project or a one time read, although if you're looking to read Orwell I'd recommend Animal Farm

I read it in high school & thought it sounded like the Soviet Union. Now it's starting to be like that here, except for the religion.

It's a great book, but don't worry - 90% of people haven't read it and 80% of those who have didn't understand it.

It's a very hectic book. You could watch the film version with (the guy who was killed when an alien burst out of his chest in the first Alien movie) and Richard Burton as it's 100% faithful to the novel. (I got bored but that's because I know the novel backwards and forwards.) It's depressing but it's meant to be depressing. "Imagine a boot stamping on a human face... forever."

You really should. I actually bought a few copies of the book last year and gave them to my friends who'd never read it before. Big brother is watching.

Today it could be considered prescient :(

I read this probably when a teenager. Probably for a class. Want to read it again..Same with Animal farm.

Just don't put it off on the theory that eventually you'll have t read it because it will become compulsory.

Yes, you should ! Read it last year and still thinking about it.

Read it, I re read it recently, scared the s****

It's actually quite good, in a depressing, dehumanizing way.

..yes...

Unless you take antidepressants or anti anxiety meds, or both. Then read the Cliff Notes. Animal Farm is a little easier on the nerves.

Yes, you need to read it

We'll just LARP it out.

I personally didn't like it. Hella depressing (obvs). I would personally recommend reading a summary or the cliffs notes or something lol

Let me give you a brief view... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:1984-related_lists

Yoy really should. Quillette.com has a good article on Orwell (Eric Blair)

If you already know the gist of it,, you're good. The actual writing isn't anything remarkable.

It's been adapted to a movie. Not very good though, but it's starring Michael B. Jordan so 🤷‍♀️

Nope it doesnt stand up to the test of time. And was always a boring book

Mostly social apocalypse. The regression movement worldwide is trying its damnedest to erase as much social progress as it can, and it's making alarming strides at it too.

Don't forget MAGA........................

Zombies are preferable to some of the news these days. At least we could (probably) outrun zombies.

All of them.

Trump

All of the above.

A zombie virus would be considered a pandemic

Zombies? 🤔

The Biden Administration

"I COULD be a gooder doggie..."

Unless your homework was on quantum mechanics

To be fair, not everyone has been around as long as you and are hearing it for the first time.

That's true, but is there a reason you brought it up?

Well, I believe it's because, as children, they often had to explain their actions to their mother, and this created conflicting feelings.

I mean father!

Harry, of course! He failed to learn the correct spells. He survived by accident, luck, and help from his friends.

The author?
