Where did the human go?.

It seems something that always bugs me would be technology and how it manages to be abused while at the same time, doing exactly what it was designed to do. Maybe I could find this world more satisfying if this technology that is so frequently abused in such manners never existed in the first place. They are made to „make life simpler”, a companies way of saying „make people buy something pretty and unnecessary”. Now you may think I’m being a hypocrite seeing how I use some laptop or computer of sorts to type this up and post it.

I use a 2003 Panasonic that has a two hour battery life. It’s bulky and makes some odd sounds at time. Yes, I am entirely hypocritical by using this new shiny expensive laptop. Sue me.

But back to the point, what I mean is, when people use technology at unnecessary hours or for the simplest tasks. All of these websites and such are not helping. All they do are add to the way people may forego the earth and all other humans in general. Maybe this won’t do anything to humans at all. Maybe the majority of the first world who live practically their entire lives on a computer screen at forsaken hours and times will not become effected. No, of course not. All face to face communication will be unaffected, social anxiety will disappear, humans will be more in tune to nature with 700,000,000 apps to teach them!

And I’m a 700 year old monk who lives in Atlantis.

Not to mention, people are becoming lazier by the day. As opposed to looking at a watch, people pull out a phone. With a watch strapped to their wrist. There’s no need to read, let some computer generated voice read it for you. We don’t need schools, only websites.

Yes, the world will prosper with us as its rulers.

In the words of We As Human:

„But isn’t it beautiful
The way we fall apart
Isn’t it beautiful
oh, isn’t it wonderful
The way we fall apart
It’s magical and tragic all the ways we break our hearts

So unpredictable
We’re comfortably miserable
We think we’re invincible
Completely unbreakable
And maybe we are
But isn’t it beautiful
The way we all fall apart

Isn’t it beautiful
The way we fall apart”

Our downfall will be glorious in a shower of applications and computer chips smaller than molecules. We will fall as graceful as a klutz tripping over stairs with cell phones and watch phones and tablets and computer tablets. Our downfall will be recorded and spread on social media.

Oh wait, social media would have died.

To my endless delight might I add.
