why go to the grocery store or to a restaurant when you can just get food delivered why go to the mall when you can get same day shipping on amazon why go to the library when you have kindle why make art when there’s ai why go to the cinema when you can stay at home and watch netflix. we are in a loneliness epidemic btw

the loneliness epidemic was invented by BIG SHIT to sell you more SHIT

It’s so sad that students are now relying so heavily on AI for writing essays because they’re missing out on the best part of writing an essay which is when you’re a few paragraphs in and you just reach that flow state where your thought process becomes one with the essay and you’re slamming the keys so hard that you’re on the verge of destroying your laptop. I used to get high off of that shit

You ever think about what Joli (the teacher of New Rho) must think about Nona.

You’re a teacher at the end of the world. Some of your students are homeless. Some of your students are soldiers. Some are just harmed beyond belief.

You run into a young girl who is just so bright and happy even in the midst of this hell. She’s a teenager but seems young and you don’t know if it’s trauma or a mental disability but she seems so excited about the prospect of school.

She lives with a beautiful woman in her twenties and another man who you assume is her father until you realize he is absolutely not. Oh.

It’s not an uncommon story especially for girls like her. Pretty orphan girls with no education, with mental disabilities. They say she’s nineteen and you don’t fully believe them but you convince them she can be an aid.

She’s wonderful with it. She makes friends and begins to learn. You notice she comes everyday groomed with clean clothes and that’s more than a lot of kids can claim.

Does she think about her when it’s all falling apart. Is Nona still being taken care of at the end of the world? Did she do enough to make this exploited girls life a little happier? Could you have done more? Could anyone have done more?
