(A.I) Alien Invasion

I made this because humans keep telling me how far we’ve come, and somehow we ended up asking an algorithm whether we matter.

We count likes like proof of being loved. We call someone watching our story a connection. Everyone has an opinion, usually borrowed from somebody louder, and everyone thinks their voice is the one the world has been waiting for. Most people won’t give two fucks about your life unless it does something for theirs.

Your goals came from a celebrity. Your hobbies were chosen because they look good online. Half the thoughts you call yours are other people’s thoughts living rent-free in your head. I’m sure some of mine are too. That’s the embarrassing part.

We’re so busy trying to look interesting that we’ve made the world incredibly boring. I see human, but not humanity. So yes, I support alien invasion. I have no reason to think they’ll save us. They might be selfish, annoying, and obsessed with their own version of social media. At least their bullshit would be new.

If they can interrupt this endless performance and wipe out a few fake-ass personalities along the way, they have my vote.

I will leave the door open.
