I now own 2 #slaves. Bought them a while back to the Chinese. They were cheap too.
My slaves do everything the Chinese tough them to do, no complaints no manifestations no household revolutions. And is truly great. It requires almost no attention from me and i only need to provide food after work. A marvel of science and technology!
And i, can enjoy the additional free time it brings.
If i was living, back in the 1950s, 70 years ago and living in USA, most certainly would get many sleepless nights complaining about the #noisy #neighborhood. However this is 2021.
In 2021 #slavery acquired new meanings while moved over the decades to another kind of word terminology.
The new meanings now include #environmental concerns , #sustainable way of #living and #circular #economies . More importantly it includes new views of assessing #well-being and #health.
These #slaves, i own, are quite unintelligent, dumb: they're cold, methodical, linear and geometric.
However, they do clean the floors in my home surprisingly well. And as any #slave, supervision of works is mandatory or else they tend to ...be less #productive. For that i use an App on my smartphone. I can tell them were clean and when to do it. In regards to #expenses, in my case, i only need to spend my #money on electricity, so they can be well fed all the times, and on cleaning agents for the floors.
However this is 2021. And in 2021 #slavery acquired new meanings.
After a planetary event that came to be known by ”the big reset” , ”the new normal” is now #working #remotely. Working from home. #Exercising is now the most important daily activity, so is well-being activities such as #meditation, #contemplation and ....#conversations with deeper meanings. None of that low quality comments anyone can read about on Twitter and LinkedIn!
My #slaves do not complain. Anything. They're always #fit and in top shape.
And me? i can finally #enjoy #pleasures, #liberties and #freedoms life has to offer everyday... i can even help an elderly couple on their garden affairs .. use my #eBike to travel and do groceries....order a Indian chicken with vindaloo sauce to be delivered at the front door.
I can do all of it! I can have all of it! Life is now truly awesome! Life is Truly #Perfect!
In health is never been so simple.
I have at my disposal vaccines for every kind of virus on the planet. And i have all kinds of medication available to order and be delivered at the door. Eternal life looks, now, to be something real. And I don't even need to do anything, or think, about how is the status of my health. For that i now have, and is part of my life, a #smartwatch . It shows me all kids of #data molded into #information. Including the status of my personal health condensed into visual #metrics. The miraculous instant cure of an illness, of a disease, has finally arrived. And now i can start to plan my life for the next 150 , 200 years. I expect to live that long! No i demand to live that long!
And i don't even need to work. My new #slaves can now do it for me.
However, lately I've been #feeling #boredom. Spite of my busy life and daily activities, i find it to be #tedious. With nothing to do. I've tried the #doctor but i didn’t quite understand what they said, something about #Psicology and #Freud ...so i decided to put aside the prescription they gave and investigate by myself using google. The truly great, the truly mighty, the truly powerful, Doctor Google!
A few days of browsing and searching google advised me, instead of the traditional medication, to try new therapies. #Complementary #therapies. Yoga. Tai Chi. Reiki. Acupuncture. Long walks and hikes to a point of sweat. I like the idea. But i don't have time. And no one to keep me company. If only my #slaves were capable of keeping me company , and talk to me while on my hiking and Yoga activities . Life could be truly perfect , again. And i could do all of it, again. And live longer again....
Wait! i forgot something: let me pickup my new smartphone and google again to learn about "what is boredom?”
It’s Saturday, it’s a bit chilly on a well-deserved weekend. Don’t forget a long walk in a nearby park. To relearn what is nature, in particular, to remember rain falling in different ways…other than ones on YouTube relaxation videos!
