The enclosed rations for the END of the WORLD may or may not include:
- Hamlet's soliloquy - but instead of addressing the audience, he unlocks his phone and prompts a large language model chatbot: to be or not? idk
- An entry-level job opening - where you must be the unicycling Nobel Laureate son of the CEO or God to qualify for a first-round interview
- Earth - begging you to show a planet a little mercy and please just fucking kill me already
- An IKEA manual - for a man that can emotionally validate you (self-worth sold separately)
- Apple Maps - but it's drunk too . . .
The 21st century may feel like an appetizer to the apocalypse, but there's really nothing to be scared of. That world-defining headline? Probably just more AI slop your uncle reposted after his morning vape. And it's actually quite groundbreaking that you're the first of your bloodline to ever flirt with a robot therapist. Besides, when else in history are you going to have Taylor Swift, live footage of the war, and your engagement photos all on the same app?
Since 2017, Little Old Lady Comedy has posted humor online in an editorial tradition of the hot, female, and queer comedian persuasion. Any Last Words? - LOLC's debut book - is a collection of essays, stories, poems, and cartoons from the up-and-coming humorists of eight countries, four generations, and one twisted way of coping with the end of the world.
